The ultimate protagonist?! Oh no...

Aya is awkward, and doesn't know how to hold a conversation, let alone make eye contact! Maybe transferring to this all-girls high school is finally a chance to get a fresh start and make some friends?

But all these girls keep saying they're in love with them! What is a socially anxious girl to do!?

The ultimate athlete, she'll never say no to a challenge. Let's get fired up!

Akane can be quite blunt when speaking to others. This, combined with her piercing eyes and stand off-ish demeanor can make her quite intimidating.

Despite this, she can get flustered and shy at unexpected moments.

School Uniform, Hat, Jacket, Sports Shoes

Shy, Short-tempered, Tomboy, Flustered, Competitive, Blunt

Akane

The ultimate bookworm, she seems to know almost everything.

Kaede is outgoing and approachable, always eager to help anyone in need. She even seems to be friends with everyone else in school, even if she's a stickler for the rules. 

Enthusiasm aside, she's a bit clumsy, not to mention forgetful, especially with important details.

Outgoing, Friendly, Clumsy, Smart, Bookworm, Cheerful

Kaede

The ultimate school idol, she is perfect in every way imaginable. 

Katsumi possesses a sharp tongue and even sharper k̶n̶i̶f̶e̶ wit when speaking to others. All the while doing so she keeps a straight face making her seem quite frightening.

This trait of hers makes interacting with her a challenging task, if not impossible.

School Uniform, Vest, Thigh-high Stockings, Ribbon Hair Accessory

Katsumi

The ultimate arch wizard, she claims to have come from another world.

Nozomin is the embodiment of chaos, highly spontaneous, you never quite know when she'll be up to her next scheme. One thing she'll be teaching you forbidden spells, the next you're signing your marriage papers!?

Even though her 'power levels are unknown', she has yet to show them.

School Uniform, Fingerless Gloves, Coat Cape

Nozomin

The ultimate... ? Nobody seems to know anything about her, or seem to notice her entering the room.

Shizuka is a girl of few words and fewer expressions. You can never quite tell what she's thinking, or if she's even thinking at all.

Is she hiding something? ...or is she just really shy?

School Uniform, Cardigan, Beret, Ribbon Tie

Shizuka

A dating sim where you avoid cute babes instead of dating them?!

You are Aya - a timid, anxiety ridden mess that wants nothing more than to start fresh in your final year of high school. New school, new people, making friends will DEFINITELY work this time! But in a strange twist of fate, it turns out your new haircut is making everyone in class fall in love with you instead?! How will you make new friends with cute girls that are looking for more than just friendship?
