Natsuo Fujii

Utama

Male · Umur 16

Height: 178 cm (5'10") Natsuo is introduced as a second-year high school student who loves writing novels, so he frequently heads to the rooftop during his lunch breaks to develop his passion. It is there that he meets the rookie English teacher named Hina Tachibana, who becomes his first crush. His current appearance is far different from his junior high days thanks to following the suggestion of Fumiya Kurimoto (Natsuo's best friend), who forced him to wear contact lenses instead of eye glasses and have his curly hair flattened daily.

It is not so clear if she feels becoming a teacher is her true call, even though she admits she has worked really hard to get her license. She is really into comedy shows. She does enjoy festivals in general, not only for the food but for the different attractions, especially the goldfish scooping. She is afraid of cockroaches to the point of running away from seeing them, without worrying if she is wearing something or not. She also freezes up with thunder storms.

Rui Tachibana

Utama

Female · Umur 16-28

Height: 160 cm (5'3") Occupations: High school student, Apprentice Chef Rui is the younger sister of Hina Tachibana, but soon after Tsukiko Tachibana (Rui's divorced mother) marries a widower named Akihito Fujii, Rui becomes Natsuo Fujii's step-sister. At first glance, Rui is an aloof and blunt girl who is hard to read emotionally. Her standoffish personality has made it difficult for her to socialize. As her first meeting at a mixer, she didn't do much to interact with the others. Once someone passes through her cold demeanor, Rui is actually a very kind and loving girl throughout the series. In spite of this, it can be hard for her to express her feelings towards someone she genuinely likes. She is very supportive of people she cares about, in spite of their flaws and even if their desires conflict with her own. Rui has a tendency to pout when things don't go her way, though Natsuo finds this feature of hers adorable. Rui is also surprisingly easy to embarrass in spite of her stoic personality. When Natsuo lists all of her behaviors he finds cute, especially to other people in front of her, she becomes overwhelmingly flustered.

Pendukung

Female · Umur 17

Occupation: College student / Ob-gyn She is a member of the Literature Club and a friend of Rui Tachibana. She fits the 'Genki' female archetype in the manga as she is constantly an energetic girl with a bubbly personality who is also incredibly eccentric and overly friendly to some people as shown when she gave Rui Tachibana a nickname and one of the dolls from her bag upon their first meeting. As noted by the girls in her class, Momo is also very flirtatious towards boys, flirtations that are rumored have evolved into sexual relations on more than one occasion. She also exhibits a childish side, as shown by her nicknames like "Rui-Rui" and calling sex "making love-love". She has a massive crush on Natsuo Fujii, which has often gone to obsessive extremes like clinging to his arm and feeding him boxed lunches she made without his knowledge. However, beneath her flirtatious and bubbly nature lies deep vulnerability and a possible self-loathing. Her parents have a very bad relationship and they are almost always working, which leaves Momo by herself for nearly whole days on end.

Pendukung

Male

Eye color: Brown Hair color: Black Occupation: Owner of L'Amant restaurant Debut: Chapter 5 / Episode 3 Masaki Kobayashi is the owner of L'Amant (French for 'The Lover') restaurant and a former Yakuza. He's an openly gay man and prefers to be addressed as Marie, though he is often addressed as The Master or Mari-san by others. His coworkers are Fumiya Kurimoto and Ayano. Kobayashi tends to aid Natsuo and others by providing advice and consultation. Appearance: Kobayashi is a strong and athletic individual, keeping himself in shape with various exercise, including yoga. He has long, curly black hair that is often tied in a ponytail, and sports a light trimmed mustache. He is very high maintenance, keeping his body hairless and well moisturized, and wears expensive cologne. Kobayashi has a typical Yakuza style tattoo that covers his back and parts of his chest. Although he can look quite intimidating when wearing his old Yakuza outfits, he often prefers to wear something more effeminate and/or revealing. His typical work attire includes a usual waiter's button shirt and bowtie, but he happens to wear very short trousers with leggings. He is also not opposed to dressing in drag, wearing a fundoshi, or even a leather thong. Personality: Kobayashi is a bright, cheerful, and flamboyant person. He often speaks in an effeminate form of speech. Because of this, he can speak on the same level with the females of the series, and can even be quite snarky with them. Kobayashi insists that people call him Marie or Mari-san, and gets irked when people address him by his actual name. Kobayashi is an empathetic person, sensing when others are emotionally disturbed and offers whatever advice he can - though sometimes that can come with a consultation fee of having to buy a drink from him. Kobayashi is also flirtatious, often teasing Natsuo and asking any men he meets if they're single.
