■ Main Characters

Akari Akasaka She's a good girl who is likely to be pushed out of the main character's role because she's such a good girl. She's a character with a weak background and is gradually fading out (tears).
Kyouko Tono She runs wild so much that people around her can't keep up with her, but no one else tries to keep up with her, so it's no problem. She's actually an otaku girl who is active in doujin activities.
Yui Funami plays the straight man to Kyoko. She is a capable young woman who lives alone, but the darkness she carries is deep and dark... or maybe not.
・Yoshikawa Chinatsu She resembles the main character of the popular anime "Majokko Mirakurun." She's a cute girl with a flirty personality.
・Sugiura Ayano: She sees Kyoko as a rival... but that's a big lie; to be honest, she is an innocent girl in love.
・Ikeda Chitose A great character who raises the yuri level that is often forgotten by indulging in extreme yuri fantasies.
・Omuro Sakurako A tsundere girl aiming to become the next vice president of the student council. Will she and Himawari make a tsun x tsun couple?
Himawari Furuya is a tsundere girl who is aiming to become the next vice president of the student council. Also, she has big breasts.
・Akaza Akane Akari's older sister.
