Plot

Characters

Kazama Family

Yamato Naoe (直江大和)
The main protagonist of both the video game and anime, Yamato is the tactician of the group and loves to outwit others, mostly for fun but occasionally for material gain. He has an extreme love for his hermit crabs, Yadon and Karin. He is aware of all the girls being head over heels in love with him, but does not reciprocate their feelings at all, always avoiding their romantic advances and always rejecting them instantly, up to the point of being scared of them.

Momoyo Kawakami (川神百代)
The eldest of the Kawakami Family by a couple of years, Momoyo is seen as the older sister of the group. She effortlessly defeats anyone who challenges her, and is considered by many to be the strongest warrior in the world. She also loves combat more than anything, making her lack of worthy foes frustrating. Fights using her fists.

Kazuko Kawakami (川神一子)
The adoptive second daughter of the Kawakami family and nicknamed "Wanko" for her dog-like tendencies, Kazuko is known for her cheerful demeanor and dedication to what she cares about. She has been practicing for nearly her entire life to become a trainer at the Kawakami temple, but still pales in comparison to her sister. Fights using a naginata.

Miyako Shiina (椎名京)
A longtime classmate of Yamato's, Miyako is withdrawn & aloof, barely speaking to anyone outside the Kazama family. She has been madly in love with Yamato for years, but while Yamato cares deeply about Miyako, he does not reciprocate her feelings at all, and always rebuffs all of her romantic advances and continuously rejects her. Fights using a bow.

Yukie Mayuzumi (黛由紀江)
A first-year transfer student, Yukie is shy to the point of conversing with her horse-shaped phone strap, which she has named Matsukaze and given a distinct personality; she often speaks to the Kazama family as Matsukaze. Her goal for the year is to make 100 friends. Fights using a katana.

Christiane Friedrich (クリスティアーネ・フリードリヒ)
A transfer student from Germany, Chris is devoted to justice & fairness, looking down on Yamato for taking pride in being sneaky. She is not good at reading the room, but will readily jump into conflicts in order to defend her friends. She knows very little about Japan outside of what she has seen in jidaigeki dramas. Fights using a rapier.

Shoichi Kazama (風間翔一)
The leader of the Kazama Family and Yamato's longtime best friend, Shoichi is rarely called anything besides "Captain" by his friends. He loves having new experiences, and makes sure every member of the group is involved in the fun.

Gakuto Shimazu (島津岳人)
The muscle of the group on the men's side, Gakuto is obsessed with finding a girlfriend but has no luck due to most women finding his antics repulsive. His family owns both the group's dorm and their hideout.

Takuya Morooka (師岡卓也)
The biggest geek of the group, Takuya is an otaku as he openly loves both anime and manga. He is also skilled with computers and can be counted on to keep up with the rumor mill, but like Gakuto has no luck with women. He is only the member of the Kazama family with no fighting capability.
