Main Characters
Isanagi Ayara | Second Year | Student Council
Isanagi Ayara—Nagi, as he prefers to be called—is the second son of the illustrious Ayara family, who halfway own the city and everyone in it. His lineage is both blessing and curse, and Nagi is determined to chart his own path, proving he’s more than just a second son.
Kouya Ibara | Second Year | Discipline Committee
With fiery hair, a cold glare, and countless cuts and bruises as his signature, Kouya has a reputation for delinquency. There’s more than meets the eye, of course, but no one knows what exactly that “more” is.
Rui Ferreira | Second Year | Soccer Team
Although he only recently moved in from Brazil, Rui’s already everyone’s best friend. Renowned as the school’s—no, the city’s star player, he tries to keep his otaku side hidden deep in the closet. Too bad the closet’s too full of merch already.
Solomon Lee | First Year | Literature Club
The son of a preacher man, Sol’s God-given talents in the arts, especially music, were nurtured throughout his childhood. But both angel and devil sit at Sol’s pink-sweater-clad shoulders and he plays their tunes in equal measure.
