Line 11:
Despite her outward demeanor, Miyako is actually fairly lonely, and carries emotional scars from {{spoiler|the messy, bitter divorce of her parents, followed by them abandoning her to her luck}}. She tries to live her life so as not to be tied down by anything or anyone, but deep down, she badly needs and wants love.
 
Miyako's birthday is the eighth of September. She's 162  cm tall, and her three measurements are 88-57-83.
----
* [[The Ace]]
Line 20:
* [[Blackmail Is Such an Ugly Word]]
* [[Character Development]]: She's notably nicer and less self-centered in Kei's chapter than she is in her own.
* [[Clingy Jealous Girl]]: Not quite to [[Yandere (disambiguation)]] proportions, but close. [[Played for Drama]] in the anime, where her abandonment issues are more played up.
* [[Common Mary Sue Traits]]: Perfect at everything she tries, popular when she actually bothers to interact with people, pretty, and also a [[Karma Houdini]] ([[Jerkass]] to a lot of people; gets called on it occasionally but never gets punished). Her character flaws and vulnerabilities are played up in the anime, which helps to counteract this, as does her guilt when she realizes she's [[Kick the Dog|crossed the line]] with Kei; Miyako is also a fairly well-liked character anyway.
* [[Hair Decorations]]: Those big fat yellow ribbons of hers...
Line 74:
Kei finds it very difficult to be honest with herself, probably due to her own [[Tsundere]] nature. She has a twin sister named Chihiro, who's also an important character.
 
Kei is the heroine of the second chapter of the game, and one of the main characters in the first anime. After a failed attempt at wresting Hiro's affections away from Miyako, she winds up in a reluctant romance with Kyousuke; for a long time, she is hesitant to love again because losing Hiro has given her a fear of abandonment. She's 150  cm tall, and her three measurements are 76-55-79. Her birthday is June second.
----
* [[Berserk Button]]: Don't make fun of her height.
Line 120:
Kei's twin sister. Although she's often seen in uniform, she does not attend Otowa Gakuen for health reasons. She's often seen at the train station, reading books; this is where she bumps into Renji for the first time. Yuu (yes, [[You ALL Share My Story|that Yuu]]) is her primary caretaker. She has lived a very difficult life due to the fact that she has had {{spoiler|anterograde amnesia}} for the past several years, {{spoiler|after being hit by a car when she was 13 years old, which caused her brain damage ''and'' made her lose an eye}}.
 
Renji is the first person she's told about herself for a while, and his presence in her life helps her to move towards her goals again--Chihiroagain—Chihiro is attempting to write a short story about "the last girl in the world", but has largely given up due to her condition. They develop a relationship, although {{spoiler|Chihiro's amnesia}} is a large obstruction to it. How things end between them differs vastly between the anime and game.
 
She's the main heroine of the third game, and is said to be the embodiment of the theme "a tale of memories". In the anime, Chihiro is one of the central characters. She's 151  cm tall, and her measurements are 77-53-78.
----
* [[Bad Dreams]]: Of the accident where she lost her eye and her health problems started.
Line 147:
{{quote|Voiced by: [[Motoki Takagi]] (JP), Clint Bickham (EN)}}
 
A student at Otowa Gakuen who doesn't have many friends due to his family's moving around a great deal. His world is restricted to his class, his [[Cloudcuckoolander|crazy mother Sumire]], his often-offscreen father, and his [[Genki Girl|cheerful cousin Mizuki]]--at—at least until he stops by the town's abandoned train station one day and meets Chihiro there. Although Renji is rather aimless and doesn't know what to do with himself and his life at the beginning of the story, meeting Chihiro and learning to cope with and consider her health in all of their interactions helps him to mature. He decides to become and author, and does his best to support her.
 
Renji's birthday is the first of November. He is a year younger than Chihiro, but his chapter starts when he's in his junior year of high school.
Line 160:
 
=== Mizuki Hayama ===
{{quote|Voiced by: [[Mai Goto]] (JP), [[HillaryHilary Haag]] (EN)}}
 
Mizuki is 156  cm tall and her three measurements are 80-58-82. Her birthday is December 22.
----
* [[Badass Adorable]]
Line 172:
* [[Girlish Pigtails]]: Changed to a single side ponytail in the fourth chapter.
* [[Happily Adopted]]
* [[Harmful to Minors]]: Oh, boy. First {{spoiler|her mother tried to strangle her, then tried to double-suicide-murder by driving the family car into the ocean}}. And after that, {{spoiler|her friend Yuuko got hit by a car right in front of her}} when she was still a little kid. It's a subversion, though, as aside from her phobia of the ocean Mizuki doesn't let her childhood trauma adversely affect her behavior--ratherbehavior—rather, she wants to make people happy because of it.
* [[I'm Taking Her Home with Me]]: To Chihiro.
* [[Image Song]]: ''Egao no Chikara''
Line 182:
* [[Plucky Girl]]
* [[The Pollyanna]]
* [[May-DecemberMay–December Romance]]: With Kuze.
* {{spoiler|[[Replacement Goldfish]]}}: For {{spoiler|the original Mizuki}}.
* [[Stepford Smiler]]: For a little while towards the end of her chapter after {{spoiler|Kuze tries to drive her away by almost raping her}}. She snaps out of it pretty quickly, though.
Line 250:
* [[Dead Little Sister]]
* [[Dead Person Conversation]]: He has a few conversations with {{spoiler|his [[Dead Little Sister]]}} in his dreams. They may or may not be hallucinations or tricks of the psyche, though.
* [[Deus Angst Machina]]: {{spoiler|To start off, he's an orphan. Then his little sister dies in an earthquake. Another orphaned girl tries to get close to the introverted boy, but he drives her away because she bears a painful resemblance to his [[Dead Little Sister]]. Ten years later he meets her again and discovers that her adoptive older brother - his teacher - has been abusing her for nearly as long. The teacher eventually commits suicide and the two fall in love, but then the girl dies in a car accident. Fast-forward ''another'' ten years and his best friend is going to die of a heart condition. The guy gets kicked around by fate nearly as much as [[Clannad (visual novel)||Tomoya]]}}.
** Think Yuu's state in the anime was bad? In the game, {{spoiler|he and Yuuko were going to have a baby when she got hit by that car!}}
* [[Eyes of Gold]]
Line 283:
{{quote|Voiced by: [[Shizuka Ito]] (JP), Allison Keith (EN)}}
----
* [[Bokukko]]: "Watashi" is three syllables, making it too long! "Boku" has two--isntwo—isn't it perfect?!
* [[Chekhov's Gunman]]
* [[Childhood Friend Romance]]: Goes nowhere, to her disappointment. However, she does have a route in the fandisc.
