Main Characters
Tsumiki Miniwa is somewhat petite and small in stature, but she has a stong attitude, and has a crush on Io Otonashi. For some reason, every time Io gives Tsumiki a pat on the head or Tsumiki sees something she likes, she grows cat ears. Tsumiki has shown an unusual level of strength for her size, often shown it at Mayoi’s expense.
Io Otonashi is really dense, yet he has a kind heart. He is oblivious to Tsumiki’s crush on him, but she is the closest girl to him regardless. He is usually seen spinning a pen with his hand, often fast enough to catch Mayoi’s surprise at his hand’s speed. At times, he unknowingly acts like a casanova. He is also quite strong, which is often, though not as Tsumiki.
Mayoi Katase is very savvy with electronics and almost never seen without her lab coat. She loves to tease Tsumiki, which often brings her severe repercussions from Tsumiki herself.
Sakaki Inui is Io’s partner-in-crime. Together with Mayoi, he makes up the prankster duo in the friendship group. His sister owns a patisserie where he, Hime and Io also work.
Hime Haruno is a clumsy girl. She has a very sweet and innocent personality. Easily gets a nosebleed when she’s flustered or riled up. Also a part time worker at Hatch Potch.
