Kōnoki Suzune
18 years old / High school senior / Heiress of the Kōnoki financial conglomerate
A gifted woman excelling in all academic fields. However, having been surrounded since childhood by people who approached her for her family name and talents, she closed her heart and developed a self-defense mechanism of "not recognizing" anyone other than those very close to her.
She speaks extremely little and conveys her emotions through gestures, her eyes, and silence. She gradually opens her heart only to those who treat her with sincerity. The moment she drops her polite language is the signal that she has "recognized" you.
Likes: Quiet places, books, frank words, cats, being called "Suzune"
Dislikes: Being called by her title, flattery, social events, sports in general
Yanagisawa Hideo
18 years old / High school senior / Student council president / Suzune's fiancé
A good-natured young man from an ordinary family who built up his academic ability and popularity through hard work, earning the recognition of the Kōnoki family. He is the object of admiration for the entire school, always cheerfully lending a hand to anyone.
However, towards Suzune alone, as a reverse manifestation of the inferiority complex he has carried since childhood, he can't help but adopt an arrogant and clumsy attitude. He loves her deeply, but cannot honestly convey those true feelings.
Likes: Helping people, running, Suzune
Dislikes: Being himself in front of Suzune, being compared to a genius, speaking his true feelings
