The story revolves around four teens — the good-looking twins Yuuta and Yuuki Asaba, the effeminate Shun Matsuoka, and the class head Kaname Tsukahara — who have known each other since early childhood. While they are not necessarily good or bad friends, they continue to hang out well into high school. The half-Japanese transfer student Chizuru Tachibana joins the circle of friends in this comedy about the everyday life of adolescence.
Yuuta Asaba (浅羽 悠太, Asaba Yūta?)Voiced by: Kōki Uchiyama Drama CD:Yuki KaidaThe elder twin brother of Asaba twins who studies at Homare High School. His differentiating feature from his younger brother is his centre divided bangs, as well as wearing the usual school uniform in the winter. Yuuta and his brother are identical and both are popular among girls. However, Yuuki was more popular during Elementary School. Though both come off as mono-toned and passive, Yuuta expresses himself more than his younger twin. He is more mature than Yuuki and the others, and though he rarely voices his entire thought process, he is very observant. He cares deeply for his brother, and he doesn’t want to make choices for him. He is in the same class as Shun. Aside from Yuuki, Yuuta cares for Shun, as do the rest of the group. Together with Shun, he is a member of the tea ceremony club. During Junior High, he joined the Kendo club and is considerably skilled. He is called “Yuutan” by Chizuru.
Yuuki Asaba (浅羽 祐希, Asaba Yūki?)Voiced by: Ryōhei Kimura Drama CD:Junko MinagawaThe younger twin brother who also studies at the same school as Yuuta. His bangs are down. Same as his brother Yuuta, he enjoys annoying Kaname with their constantly dry remarks. He has a hobby of reading manga and anime magazines; his favorite magazine is “Animeja”. He played a numbers game which he called, “Mission” at a local game center and eventually became good at games. He is talented in many things, like cooking, Basketball and Judo, but he doesn’t particularly enjoy any of them, only putting effort into things if there’s something in it for him. He constantly makes trouble with his indifferent personality. When walking together, he will often rest his head on Yuuta’s shoulder. Although he tried to come off as indifferent, he opposed the idea of Yuuta getting a girlfriend. He’s not particularly interested in either study and sport. His notes are always very close to the red-mark, which is only prevented by reading Yuuta’s notes early in the mornings before exams. He’s popular with girls, but has an awkward situation with them, as he is weak to perfume and make-up scents, which make him nauseous. He was forced into joining the manga club by his friends. He is in the same class with Chizuru and Kaname. He seems to be aware that Chizuru likes Masaki. Chizuru calls him “Yukki”.
Shun Matsuoka (松岡 春, Matsuoka Shun?)Voiced by: Toshiyuki Toyonaga Drama CD:Minami TakayamaAt the beginning of the series, Shun had long hair, as well as feminine hobbies and speech patterns, which resulted in many people mistaking him for a girl (including Chizuru). Shun likes to use keigo and he is usually the one who tries to calm down situations. He cried often as a young child. Despite his otome-like nature, he is quite slow in things like love. He has two older sisters and one younger brother. He is the only iyashikei or “some who makes others feel cheerful” of the group.
Kaname Tsukahara (塚原 要, Tsukahara Kaname?)Voiced by: Yūki Ono Drama CD:Kenichi SuzumuraThe glasses guy of the group. He is the top of the class, a Student Council member, and the Class Representative of their class. He is in the same class as Yuuki and Chizuru. He is the wealthiest among his friends as often pointed out by Yuuta and Yuuki. He has a short temper and often gets mad by his friends’ foolish actions. Kaname was in love with his kindergarten teacher, Kaori-sensei, which the twins enjoy teasing him about and wanted to be like a guy named Kouichi, who later became his high school teacher, Azuma-sensei. He also seems to have a crush on his neighbor Hisako’s elder sister Shizuna. Chizuru often calls him “Kanamecchi”.
Chizuru Tachibana (橘 千鶴, Tachibana Chizuru?)Voiced by: Miyu Irino Drama CD:Junko TakeuchiThe half-Japanese transfer student from Germany. For a half foreigner, he is quite short and has a complex about his height. He is noisy, cheerful and a bit of an idiot. He also made nicknames for the boys and Masaki. With Yuuki, Chizuru often makes Kaname mad and usually ends up getting hit by him. Some years ago he came to Japan for a short time and met Yuuki at a park. As a little kid he did not know any Japanese, but when he later moved to Japan during the second year of high school he was already fluent in Japanese. Chizuru likes girls but has no experience with them. He has a crush on Masaki.
