## Description
Oriibu Village... that was the name of this town, as well as this world.
This otherworldly town has a nostalgic, retro-like flavor.
For ages, it has prospered, and continues to prosper without end.
Every corner of the place is bustling with people, and warmth.
It is both old-fashioned, yet refreshingly new.
 
Neither magic nor spells exist here, but there is an aura of mystique.
How long has it been since I, Yumesaki Haruki, have come to this world?
 
It feels like it's been a few days. But it also feels like it's been over a year.
There is the passing of the day into night, back into day.
However, you don't feel the passage of time beyond that.
The flowers that have once blossomed continue to stay in full bloom.

The protagonist of the story who goes to an average university.

Although he pretends to be upbeat, the truth is that he's timid and barely has friends. After losing motivation to go to college, he stops going instead of simply going back and forth between home and the hospital to visit his sister, Anzu.

### Rentarou (蓮太郎)
A young man who works as a live-in employee at Kochouran -- the second-in-command.

For some reason, he's always on edge and jokes don't get through to him. Although he has a very strong personality, he can never go up against Yurika. He's especially good at preparing coffee and cooking. Fiddling with machines is one of his hobbies, so whenever equipment in the shop breaks down, the geeky side of him comes out and he fixes it in no time.

Because she barely goes out, she enjoys dreaming up fun fantasy worlds.
