11
12	The heroine's childhood friend, and Kouichi's younger brother. He hides his true thoughts behind an easygoing attitude, always flirting and joking around. Loves high places and wants to be a "hero". Unlike the usual main guys of the series, Ruka's grades are fairly low, but he is still popular with the girls of the school.

15	-----
16
17	* AnimalMotifs: A dragon.
18	* BeneathTheMask: [[spoiler:Purposefully tries to act [[ObfuscatingStupidity harmless and immature]]. Every now and then the heroine gets a glimpse of his true feelings, but Ruka always brushes it off by pretending he was joking.]]
19	* BookEnds: [[spoiler: If the player follows his route, Ruka will confess in the same church where he and the heroine first met, and where they were reunited after she moved.]]
20	* BrilliantButLazy: It's implied that Ruka is actually quite intelligent and could get good grades on all of his exams... if he bothered to study, that is.
21	* ChildhoodFriendRomance: May blossom into a VictoriousChildhoodFriend.
22	* ConvenienceStoreGiftShopping: Ruka's contribution to the gift exchange at the first-year Christmas party is an opened bottle of maple syrup. He does better with subsequent gifts, at least.
23	* CoolBike
24	* {{Delinquents}}: Ruka definitely qualifies as a delinquent considering that frequently skips class, has bleached blond hair and occasionally brawls with other students.
25	* MrFanservice
26	* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: Before entering high school, he bleached his hair from black to blond to differentiate himself from Kouichi.
27	* FaceDoodling: One of the Sakurai brothers' CG events involves Kouichi doing this to a sleeping Ruka.
28	* FirstNameBasis: Ruka actively objects to the heroine calling him by his family name - they're childhood friends, after all.
29	* GratuitousEnglish
30	* HappilyAdopted: [[spoiler: By Kouichi's family.]]
31	* IKissYourHand: His PSP-only CG. The heroine cuts herself with some thorns and he kisses her hand to stop the bleeding.
32	* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: [[spoiler:During Kou's route, Ruka will eventually give up on the heroine and ask her to take care of Kou.]]
33	%%* LongHairedPrettyBoy
34	* PerpetualPoverty: The brothers live in an abandoned diner, supporting themselves with the income from their part-time jobs. Unsurprisingly, they don't have much money to burn. There is a whole string of events involving Ruka either bartering for or outright stealing food from other students' lunches because he doesn't have one of his own.
35	* SiblingTriangle: If the heroine initiates his and Kou's 3P mode.
36	* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Officially "Ruka", but is some render it as "Luka" or "Luca". Ruka's personal view on the spelling is apparently "Luca", based on his name input in an arcade game ("LCA").
37	* StepfordSmiler: [[spoiler:Ruka is carrying a lot of emotional baggage from his childhood, to say the least.]]
38	-->[[spoiler:'''Heroine:''' Though Ruka was always smiling, he was a boy with sad looking eyes...]]
39	* RedOniBlueOni: The red to Kouichi's blue. Ruka also says that he wanted to be the red ranger as a child.
40	* SweetTooth: Especially [[TrademarkFavoriteFood pancakes]].

49
50	The heroine's childhood friend, and Ruka's older brother. Despite his intimidating appearance and brusque speech, he cares deeply about Ruka and the heroine. Loves anything vintage and collects antiques. Like his brother, studying isn't Kou's strong point and often he scores either only a few points higher or lower than Ruka on exams.
51
52
53	-----
54
55	* AnimalMotifs: A [[PantheraAwesome tiger]].
56	* AfraidOfNeedles: As revealed in one of his ADV stories.
57	* BigBrotherInstinct
58	* CatchPhrase: "Not bad". Kou uses it for ''everything'', and he very rarely gives out any higher praise.
59	* ChefOfIron: He's pretty handy in the kitchen and does all the cooking for Ruka and himself.
60	* ChildhoodFriendRomance: May blossom into a VictoriousChildhoodFriend.
61	* ConvenienceStoreGiftShopping: Most of the gifts Kou gives, especially for the Christmas party gift exchange, are pretty clearly things he already had lying around. At higher levels of affection they're objects of personal value, but for the first-year Christmas party, his gift is a worn-out Allen wrench.
62	* CoolBike: Which he switches out for a CoolCar in his ending.
63	* CrashIntoHello: How the heroine [[LateForSchool first encounters him]]. She's understandably terrified.
64	* {{Delinquents}}: Kouichi is a straighter example of a classic delinquent. He waxes his hair quite a bit, works at a gas station and gets into fights with older students.
65	* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: He and Ruka had the same hairstyle in middle school, but Kouichi cut his short before entering high school because they looked too similar.
66	* FaceDoodling: One of the Sakurai brothers' CG events involves Ruka doing this to a sleeping Kouichi.
67	* FaceOfAThug: Lampshaded by Ruka during the heroine's meeting with them on the first day of school.
68	-->'''Ruka:''' Your face is just too scary, Kou. Anyone who sees you would think you're a bad guy.
69	* FearOfThunder: Rather than Kouichi himself, the heroine is shown to have this fear during a date event. Kou comforts her and teaches her a method of making thunder seem less frightening.
70	* FirstNameBasis: Same as Ruka, Kou won't allow the heroine to call him by his family name. Unlike Ruka however, he calls the heroine by her family name at first.
71	* GentleGiant: Although Kouichi is certainly capable of violence, he's never rough with the protagonist.
72	* HugeGuyTinyGirl: At 190cm, he is the tallest dateable guy in the series so far.
73	* IKissYourHand: In one of his endings.
74	-->'''Kouichi:''' If I do this, you'll know, right?
75	* LikeBrotherAndSister: This is Kou's initial description of the relationship between himself and the protagonist. [[spoiler:If you follow his route, though, Kou admits during his confession that he's had feelings for her since they were kids and has been trying to hide it precisely because she's been like a little sister to him.]]
76	* PerpetualFrowner: Which makes the sincere smiles he shows to the heroine [[WhenSheSmiles all the better]].
77	* PerpetualPoverty: Same as Ruka.
78	* RealMenEatMeat: His favorite food is steak done rare.
79	* RealMenHateSugar: Kou also happens to dislike sweets, which is why he'll refuse the heroine's Valentine's chocolate if his affection isn't high enough.
80	* RedOniBlueOni: The blue to Ruka's red.
81	* SiblingTriangle: If the heroine initiates his and Ruka's 3P mode.
82	* SlasherSmile: He sports a very impressive one in a third-year culture festival CG event.
83	* StraightMan: He is decidedly more serious than Ruka, and so he often takes the [[BokeAndTsukkomiRoutine tsukkomi]] role when they're together.
84	* TakingTheHeat: [[spoiler:In his route, he covers for Ruka when the police question Kou about an incident involving the Yotokado delinquents.]]

93
94	Arashi is the athletic, sporty guy of the game. He practices judo, and started a club for it at Habataki High.
95
96	-----
97
98	* AmazonChaser: Has the highest Athletic requirement of any of the guys, and has multiple ADV events where he admires the heroine's musculature. When a classmate asks what he finds attractive about her, he comments on her [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latissimus_dorsi_muscle lats]].
99	%%zce* AnimeHair
100	* AnimalBattleAura: A bear.
101	%%zce* BigEater
102	* BookDumb: Pretty much always gets low, if not ''the'' lowest, scores on the exams.
103	* TheComicallySerious: This is especially apparent whenever he's around Niina, who loves to exploit this trait for laughs. Examples include a rather [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments amusing]] moment where Niina attempts to teach Arashi some of his favorite bits of slang. Arashi ends up getting the words wrong and instead of saying 'マジパネェ' (read 'maji panee', meaning 'totally awesome') he ends up saying 'ガチパレード' (read 'gachi pareedo', meaning something along the lines of 'seriously parade').
104	* {{Determinator}}: Usually when practicing/training for/thinking about judo.
105	* FriendlyRivalry: With Niina. It becomes decidedly less friendly if their [=PvP=] mode is activated.
106	* HotBlooded: Mostly when it comes to Judo.
107	* LastMinuteHookup: He realizes he is in love with the heroine at the end of graduation ceremony.
108	* ObliviousToLove: Remains oblivious to his own feelings for the heroine and only realizes his love for her at the end of graduation ceremony.
109	* OddCouple: The other half is Niina.
110	* StraightMan: When Arashi and Niina are together, Arashi usually serves as the foil for Niina's silly actions.

119
120	The fashion-conscious one, Niina is a year younger than the heroine and enrolls during her second year. He will join the Judo Club if the heroine is the manager.
121
122	-----
123
124	* AccidentalAthlete: Has to be literally chased down by Arashi in order for him to join the Judo Club, and Niina proves to be quite good at it.
125	* AnimalBattleAura: A... raccoon.
126	* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: His brother Teppei.
127	* CatchPhrase: "Totally awesome!" He doesn't say it often enough for it to be a {{Verbal Tic}}, but it does tend to crop up in a lot of his dialogue.
128	* ChekhovsGunman: The player can bump into Niina several times if they go shopping alone during the first year before he actually enters Habataki. In fact, meeting him like this is the only way to get one of his special [=CG=] events.
129	* ChivalrousPervert: Niina seems to just be a {{Handsome Lech}} at first, but he turns out to be a better guy than first impressions give him credit for.
130	* ContinuityNod: Is a fan of Kei Hazuki from the 1st Girl's Side game. He may also bring up the [[RunningGag old rumor]] of Himuro being an android while walking home with the heroine.
131	* CutenessOverload: Just try dating him at the Wan-Nyan house at the zoo.
132	* TheFashionista
133	* FirstNameBasis: With everyone. He never refers to anyone by their surname, nor does he use the honorific "-senpai" (unless he's joking). However, no one calls ''him'' by anything but "Niina".
134	* FriendlyRivalry: With Arashi.
135	* FriendToAllChildren
136	* GratuitousEnglish: Actually uses it more than Ruka and Karen combined.
137	* LikeFatherLikeSon: Touched upon in the ADV Event "Like Begets Like"; just as Niina can fall for the older heroine, his father did the same with Niina's mother.
138	* SayItWithHearts: Frequently to accent his flirty nature.
139	* SkilledButNaive: Niina has a natural talent for judo, but lacks the years of experience that Arashi has under his belt.
140	* SmarterThanYouLook: He even says this of himself. In a first for the "fashionable guy" in a Girl's Side game, Niina actually makes decent grades, and the protagonist is a bit surprised to realize that he's a pretty good student.

149
150	The student council president, a year older than the heroine. He is the younger brother of Tamami Konno from the 1st Girl's Side game. Kind and studious, he is reliable and always tries to do his best to help those around him.
151
152
153	-----
154
155	* AscendedExtra: Tamao was originally just Tamami's unseen little brother. Now he has his own route.
156	* BlindWithoutEm: After the school play, he admits he couldn't see the heroine's face very well without his glasses.
157	* ContinuityNod: Tamao's older sister is Konno Tamami, a rival/friend character from the first Tokimeki Girl's Side game. She makes an appearance during a short event in which Tamao hides himself and the protagonist from her as she walks by. His explanation for avoiding her? "She'll tease me about this for at least a month if she catches us..."
158	** In one event, the protagonist sees him doing 'greeting exercises' outside the school gates during the morning, much like Hikami Itaru from [=GS2=]. Unlike Hikami, however, he actually gets a decent response out of the student body.
159	** One of his ADV events features Tsukushi, the little brother of the [=TMGS1=] protagonist. They've been friends since elementary school, and in Tamami's profile in the first game Tsukushi comments that he knows her brother.
160	* CovertPervert: Believe it or not, Tamao has a bit of a reputation among the fandom for being a {{Covert Pervert}} due to some of his more, erm... 'suggestive' lines of dialogue. The especially raunchy ones are said randomly (and rarely!) at the title screen. Some of these include "Let's do it in your room today," and "Sorry, my voice got a bit too loud... haha, how embarrassing."
161	* ExtremeDoormat: Has trouble saying no to people out of fear of betraying their expectations of him.
162	* FriendToAllChildren
163	* LikeBrotherAndSister: Tamao considers this when trying to describe his feelings on the heroine.
164	--> '''Tamao''': I think it's like having a younger sister.
165	--> '''[[DeadpanSnarker Seiji]]''': In your case, isn't it more like having a daughter?
166	* NiceGuy
167	* RailEnthusiast
168	* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: The heroine is even [[spoiler:mistaken as his wife during an event, where she and Tamao [[IsThatCuteKidYours look after a child separated from his mother]]]].
169	* ShuttingUpNow: After saying something embarrassing, he often tends to [[DiggingYourselfDeeper ramble]].
170	* SmartPeoplePlayChess: Initially doesn't know how, but is taught in an event by Seiji.
171	* StrongFamilyResemblance: As seen in the first game's art book, when Tamao was a kid, he [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/a9c09c46gw1eco3ado9ptj20eq0ytdn2.jpg looks]] just like his sister Tamami.

181
182	A genius pianist from a wealthy family, and the heroine's senior by a year. Seiji tends to speak rudely and is dishonest with his feelings. Has a complex over not being good at anything but the piano and can be a little naive at times.
183
184
185	-----
186	* AbsurdPhobia: Has an extreme fear of dandelion seeds because he'd been tricked as a child into believing that they'd make him go deaf if they got into his ears. As a musician, Seiji considers losing his hearing to be a FateWorseThanDeath, thus his panic when the heroine unknowingly blows the seeds at him.
187	* BigFancyHouse
188	* BokeAndTsukkomiRoutine: During an argument with Tamao, Seiji tells him to explain the concept of the routine by actually acting it out. He pins the ''boke'' role onto the heroine, who thinks to herself that Seiji fits the role better alongside a ''tsukkomi'' Tamao.
189	* BookDumb: Hates studying and mostly slacks off whenever Tamao tries to help him prepare for exams.
190	* CaughtInTheRain: Occurs during a date event, though nothing overtly romantic occurs (considering the event can be activated at even neutral affection).
191	* ChildhoodFriends: Was fairly close to the Sakurai brothers when they were younger.
192	* DeadpanSnarker
193	* {{Determinator}}: After the heroine inspires him to continue practicing the piano, Seiji begins entering contests again and decides to enroll into an art university. [[spoiler: He even begins studying around in Paris, potentially bringing the heroine along with him.]]
194	* EmbarrassingNickname: "Sei-chan". In fact, he hates it so much that it is one of the nicknames that the heroine can ''never'' safely call him by.
195	* FoodEnd: His bonus ending CG is of the heroine and him going out for okonomiyaki together.
196	* FriendToAllChildren: Although he makes comments suggesting he doesn't like kids, he is actually quite patient and good with them.
197	* HostClub: His ADV Event "Class Exhibition" reveals this to be what his class chose to do for the Culture Festival. It's also the only way to find out, since Seiji completely dodges the heroine's questioning of his plans and even seems to be running away from his duties on the actual festival day.
198	* LonelyRichKid
199	* MeaningfulName: The kanji of his surname can be read as "to create music".
200	* MessyHair: To make him look like Beethoven.
201	* MundaneObjectAmazement: Seiji is amazed by ''takoyaki'' and ''okonomiyaki'', both of which are ordinary, everyday types of food.
202	* PaperThinDisguise: [[spoiler:Wears one if he comes to the Culture Festival in the heroine's 3rd year.]] He seems completely convinced that his outfit has managed to fool the people around him, and the heroine doesn't have the heart to tell him otherwise.
203	* RedStringOfFate: The fandom seems to associate him with it, even though it is only mentioned in a 3P conversation on top of being brought up by Tamao, not Seiji.
204	* SmartPeoplePlayChess: There is an event where Seiji is shown teaching Tamao how to play.
205	* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: If he shows up earlier than the agreed time on a date, he will insist that he ''definitely'' did not go out of his way to arrive early.
206	* TravelCool: Seiji's family is rich enough to have their own personal chauffeur.
207	* {{Tsundere}}: Type A.
208	* VitriolicBestBuds: With Tamao as a result of their completely opposite personalities. Unsurprisingly, Seiji does most of the insulting.

214
215	The heroine's homeroom teacher for all three years. Always full of energy and popular with the students. Unlike the previous two teachers in the series, he is not dateable (although you can get an ending for him).
216
217
218	-----
219
220	* AgainstTheSettingSun: Occurs in several of his events, [[spoiler:including the heroine's confession]], due to his love of taking sunset runs along the beach.
221	* BaitAndSwitchSentiment: Oosako's words of encouragement frequently include "You're amazing!" or "I love that about you!" but they're incredibly platonic.
222	* CoolTeacher
223	* CuteButCacophonic: Let's just say that it's difficult to tell the difference between his indoor and outdoor voice.
224	* DistractedByTheSexy: During the last event on his route, where he congratulates the heroine on becoming Rose Queen, he gets very tongue tied.
225	* TheGlomp: [[spoiler:In contrast to the subdued kiss endings of other characters, the heroine enthusiastically tackles Oosako if he accepts her feelings.]]
226	* IAlwaysWantedToSayThat: "My love is... education!!"
227	* {{Keet}}
228	* LoveEpiphany: ...Except, it's the often ObliviousToLove ''heroine'' who realizes she's in love with him. [[spoiler:She's even the one who confesses, unlike every other romantic route in the game.]]
229	* MeaningfulName: His name can be read as "great intensity/force".
230	* NintendoHard: The player has to be very careful not to miss any of his events, or he will reject the heroine.
231	* OlderThanTheyLook: Oosako actually looks ''younger'' than this game's kohai, despite being at least nine years his senior.
232	* PiggybackCute: Carries the heroine to her house this way after she sprains her ankle while out running with him.
233	* PintSizedPowerhouse: Was a regular in his university's rugby club, and can easily manhandle Kouichi when the need arises.
234	* SenseiChan: He's rare male example of this trope. By the second year, some of his students even start nicknaming him Oosako-chan.
235	* TeacherStudentRomance: At least he has enough tact to wait until after the heroine graduates before they start dating...

289	* GuideDangIt: On the ''first day of school'' you ''need'' to touch him in the crowd of classmates to be able to unlock the rest of the moments where you can touch, and hence interact with, him to complete his route.

In the PSP port this is made a bit easier: a pink button will pop up in the scenes where you can poke him, but if you pass dialogues fast, you may miss them.
