== Main Character ==

 

[[File:hiroyuki_3739.png|frame]]

西村　博行<br /><small>にしむら　ひろゆき</small><br />'''[[Hello, Insert Name Here|Hiroyuki Nishimura]]'''

 

* [[Audience Surrogate]]: In a story where every character besides Hiroyuki is [[Kemono]], the fact that Hiroyuki is very much human may help players imagine themselves in this universe even if they do not personally identify as a [[Furry Fandom|fursona]]. Hiroyuki's appearance is also intentionally vague and generic.

** Further supported by the fact it's possible to change Hiroyuki's name when you start the game.

== The Nine ==

He's getting fired up for his team's activities because of the upcoming swim meet.''

* [[Big Ol' Eyebrows]]

Kind to everybody, he is [[Cool Big Bro|like a good big brother]] to everyone because he likes to help. However, little often comes out of it and he usually fails at both his job and private matters. He is the only member of the group who can drive, but [[Drives Like Crazy|a car is like a dangerous weapon when he drives]].''

His younger twin brother, whose personality is the polar opposite, says he has "the mind and body of an old man". He's [[Grumpy Bear|usually frowning]], but that doesn't always mean he's in a bad mood. He achieved black belt status in juudou by using his full strength in a tournament.

九狸　孝之助<br /><small>くり　こうのすけ</small><br />'''Kounosuke Kuri'''

 

''[[Keet|He easily gets carried away with optimism]]. [[Cloudcuckoolander|He likes to live life in a tempo out of step with everyone else's]]. Although the things he does might irritate those around him, he means no offense. Thanks to his innocent appearance, they just sigh and leave it there. [[Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny|He loves "new things" and "things he has never seen before"]]. He often returns from the city with lots of stuff he's interested in. He is thinking about living in the city in the future.''

Everybody relies on [[The Quiet One|his calm personality]]. He also serves as the captain of the soccer club. He does nothing but practice every day in order to dominate the tournament this summer. He is known for his clever tactics. He is not perfect, however. He's not good with [[Fear of Thunder|thunder]] and ghosts. [[Shrinking Violet|He is also a little timid and doesn't always say his honest opinion]].''

* [[Ambiguously Gay|Ambiguously]] [[Bi the Way|Bi]]: Kyouji may actually be bi, since it's implied he's pretty popular with the girls, and he might have dated some of them.

* [[Covert Pervert]]: At the [[Beach Episode|beach party]], if you choose to spend the party with Kyouji and Soutarou, Kyouji will suggest that [[One True Threesome|the three of you]] [[Ho Yay|change together]].

He has a slender and handsome figure, [[Super Reflexes|perfect reflexes]], and [[Weak but Skilled|gets good grades, but he has poor physical strength]]. He makes sweets to keep his mind off things whenever he feels down.''

* [[Amazing Technicolor Wildlife]]: Just like Shigure, Shin is purple, however, the intent was [[Purple Is the New Black|obvious]].

* [[Big Fancy House]]: It's implied that Shin lives in one of those.

Because [[Disappeared Dad|he grew up without a father]], he relies on and [[Hero Worshipper|adores his upperclassman Takahara]]. Sometimes [[Moe Stare|he shows an impressive and bright smile]].

== Introduced in Tatsuki's Route ==

 

[[File:tappei_1774.png|frame]]

 

 

''He is Tatsuki's father and head of the Midoriya Group. He is 43 years old. He is an obstinate and domineering husband. A [[Alcoholic Dad|heavy drinker]], like a true Tokyo-ite, who gives the impression of a true craftsman. While working outside he is a cheerful and playful old man. At 232 cm (~7′ 7″), he is considerably taller than Tatsuki, so much so that even socks don't fit him. He loves to smoke his pipe and is [[Walking Techbane|bad with machines]].

[[File:botan_624.png|frame]]

Although he does have a house in the village, he spends so much time keeping watching of the school that the janitor's closet has become his second home.

井上　哲也<br /><small>いのうえ　てつや</small><br />'''Tetsuya Inoue'''

 

''He is a 36-year-old fox. He is a calm veteran carpenter who works for the Midoriya family. Definitely skilled, he is respected by those around him and serves as the senior apprentice. His wife and daughter live at home while he stays with the Midoriya Group. He returns home to visit them every day. Because of his [[Only Sane Man|levelheadedness]], [[Almighty Janitor|competency]], and gentle nature, newer apprentices to the Midoriya Group are extremely dependent on him. He is usually the one who calms Tappei's temper by using a carrot-and-the-stick routine. To Chuukichi, he is "Merciful Tetsu-san".''

* [[Almighty Janitor]]

* [[Big Beautiful Man]]

 

 

[[File:chuukichi_1724.png|frame]]

森　忠吉<br /><small>もり　ちゅうきち</small><br />'''Chuukichi Mori'''

 

''He is a 16-year-old mouse. He dove right into society when he graduated from junior high. He has a [[Verbal Tic|juvenile habit of saying "-ssu"]]. He has a simple and friendly personality, and his job brings out his enthusiasm. He loves the Midoriya Group, but has a bit of bad luck and [[Butt Monkey|somehow almost always ends up getting the short end of the stick]]. Despite this, [[The Pollyanna|he doesn't let it get him down]]. He is the mood maker of the Midoriya Group. He used to be quite mean... He has never seen a human up close before, and his inexperienced hands make his heart thump. Number of times he is beaten throughout the game: 23.''

* [[Barbie Doll Anatomy]]: Everybody has it, but it's specially noticeable on Chuukichi case. One of his portraits displays his crotch prominently (he's flinching basically) and on the naked variation, there's nothing.

* [[Butt Monkey]]

 

 

[[File:akira__234.png|frame]]

二階堂 明 <br /><small>にかいどう　あきら</small><br />'''Akira Nikaidou'''

 

''He is a 20-year-old horse. He is the son of a famous architect. When he was 17, he [[The Runaway|rebelled against his father, left home]], and joined the Midoriya Group. Because of this, he is trying to build a relationship with Tatsuki and Tappei. Incidentally, [[Noodle Incident|he doesn't like talking to them about running away from home]]. [[Insufferable Genius|The other workers don't understand the theories behind his job the way he does, but when he talks about the data and mechanics of construction he gets Tappei's fist]]. His frankness doesn't mean that he is conceited, but it often leads to misunderstandings. His fellow workers think that he and Tatsuki make good rivals.''

* [[Ambiguously Gay|Ambiguously]] [[Het|Straight]]: It's possible that Akira may be one of the few characters on the game that is actually straight... unless his [[Noodle Incident|runaway story]] is tied to [[Coming Out Story|that]].

* [[Carpet of Virility]]

 

 

[[File:shigure_1202.png|frame]]

橘　時雨<br /><small>たちばな　しぐれ</small><br />'''Shigure Tachibana'''

 

''He is a 68-year-old dog. He is a person who is aloof from the world. He and Tatsuki's grandfather, Tappei's father, were close friends. Now he is friends with Tappei and Mr. Botan. Tappei's robustness and Shigure's frailty make them completely opposite types. He likes new things, and his hobby is watching TV shopping programs. He is active in restoring the village and attracting new people, and the happiness of the villagers is his number one priority. The current mayor, [[Reasonable Authority Figure|he gently watches over the people of his village]].''

* [[Amazing Technicolor Wildlife]]: Shigure is ''purple''.

* {{spoiler|[[Ax Crazy]]: In Tatsuki's route, if you trigger the [[Bad End]], it is revealed that Tatsuki is an android created by Shigure, who then attempts to kill Hiroyuki now that he knows.}}

== Introduced in Kounosuke's route ==

 

[[File:yukiharu_7968.png|frame]]

 

 

''He is Kounosuke's little brother. They are a few years apart in age. He is currently in his fifth year at Minasato Elementary School. He used to be very shy and reserved, always hiding himself behind Kounosuke. Now he isn't shy at all and is becoming a follow-up to his brother. He has a cheerful personality because of his brother's influence. Recently he has been becoming less dependent on his brother. This seems to make Kounosuke a little lonely.''

* [[Big Ol' Eyebrows]]

* [[Eyes of Gold]]

 

 

'''Harue Kuri'''

 

''She is Kounosuke's and Yukiharu's mother. Usually quiet, she has a habit of softly saying "ara ara" and is a rather easygoing person. Because of this, it's hard to tell exactly what she's thinking... However, her quietness is connected to her large capacity to tolerate as a mother. When Kounosuke was little, she would lose him as soon as she took her eyes off him. The sixth sense of a mother's love would lead her right to where he was. Just like Kounosuke and his glasses, she is usually seen wearing an apron.''

 

 

 

[[File:nanafushi_2498.png|frame]]

七伏　博行<br /><small>ななふせ　ひろゆき</small><br />'''[[Hello, Insert Name Here|Hiroyuki]] Nanafuse'''

 

''The personification of Minasato Elementary's Seventh Wonder. The ghost of a [[Trickster Archetype|practical joker]] who loves to play with children more than anything else. In the past, his existence was more vague, but by discovering Shun's appearance and hearing the main character's name called out, he gained consciousness. As the personification of gossip, it's not possible for him to show his appearance to those who don't think he exists. When you become an adult you will realize no one is there because you are no longer influenced by suggestion. An adult that can see Nanafuse will just see him as something as vague as "one of the children", but it's possible that Nanafuse is posing as the person who knows that.''

* [[Blue Eyes]]

* [[Creepy Child]]: In this particular case, anyway. It all depends on his form.

== Introduced in Kouya's route ==

 

[[File:char_s_4_5_back_9510.png|frame]]

平馬　佳輔<br /><small>ひらま　けいすけ</small><br />'''Keisuke Hirama'''

猫西 閏<br /><small>ねこにし　じゅん</small><br />'''Jun Nekonishi'''

 

Jun is the bassist of Kouya's band. He's a calico cat.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: On the few occasions he does speak, it's usually to make fun of something.

* [[Kemono]]

* [[Shrinking Violet]]: When Yuuki noted in one scene that Jun was more talkative than usual, Jun responded by blushing and stopped talking.

 

[[File:char_s_4_3_back_3576.png|frame]]

鳥井 有季<br /><small>とりい　ゆうき</small><br />'''Yuuki Torii'''

== Introduced in Shun's route ==

[[File:char_s_3_1_back_7474.png|frame]]

古酉 岳 <br /><small> こどり　がく </small> <br />'''Gaku Kodori'''

 

* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: His methods and concerns may be up for question, but he's rarely seen doing something that isn't part of his plans to protect Shun.

* [[Cool Big Bro]]: He runs the local video game store, so as Shun's cousin he frequently hooks him up.

* [[The Quiet One]]: Gaku isn't very talkative.
