Characters
Yue Ishikami
The protagonist and viewpoint character. Yue is a first-year at Solana Academy that has few friends due to her abrasive and standoffish personality. While raised by otaku, Yue has tried to avoid becoming as obsessive as her parents.
Kasumi Kawamura
Yue's classmate. Kasumi prefers spending time with her friends to studying, and she has a reputation as an airhead. She spends a lot of time with Yue, to Yue's annoyance.
Cho Fukuda
Yue's classmate. Cho has been pegged as a tomboy because she wears uniform pants instead of a skirt, but this illusion is broken quickly by anyone who takes the time to talk to her.
Akomi Miyazaki
A first-year at Solana Academy. Akomi is known for two things: enjoying food and making perverted comments. She seems to be able to make a lewd joke from just about anything.
Kagami Nakayama
A first-year at Solana Academy. Kagami is usually quiet, and when she does talk she tends to use formal address and a carefully selected vocabulary. She doesn't smile much, and most don't really know what she's interested in. She often wears a scarf, even when it isn't cold.
Misaki Asahara
A second-year at Solana Academy. Misaki has known Kasumi for years, and they have recently begun dating. She is outgoing and friendly, always looking for new friends.
Junka Fujikawa
An instructor at Solana Academy. While young, she is a competent teacher and does her best to make sure her students do well in their classes.
Machi Hirata
The school nurse at Solana Academy. While she acts cold and cynical, she doesn't hesitate to help students that come to her for treatment.

Questions
- What is your first impression of the concept? Of the characters?
- Is there any information that you consider important that is not present? Is there anything that seems unclear?
- Do you have any other questions about the project?
A scene replay feature is being planned for the game. Should scene replay allow replaying of any scene from the game, or only important/romantic scenes?(EDIT: A scene replay feature that allows replaying almost any scene has already been implemented.)
