- Satō Matsuzaka, the protagonist of the manga series, is a high school girl who is popular at her school. She has fallen in love with Shio, a younger girl, and is holding this prisoner in her apartment. Before she met Shio, Satō had a reputation for being open to everyone, but she did not feel any emotions . She is perceived as friendly in public. However, this is a facade . She makes money in a maid cafe to seemingly finance her lifestyle. It turns out she saves the money she deserves for Shio. Matsuzaka is an orphan and has lived with her aunt since the death of her parents.
- Shio Kobe ( 神 戸 し お , Kobe Shio )
- Shio is an innocent girl who lives in Sato's apartment. Shio is very worried about Satō, but knows nothing of her involvement in the events, which is why she is not allowed to leave the apartment. She is told that "the world outside" is fraught with danger.
- Asahi Kobe ( 神 戸 あ さ ひ , Kobe Asahi )
- A boy looking to see Shio's whereabouts. He suffered a violent trauma due to a broken family situation.
- Taiyō Mitsuboshi ( 三星 太陽 , Mitsuboshi Taiyō )

- Daichi Kitaumekawa ( だ い ち き た う め か わ , Kitaumekawa Daichi )
- Kitaumekawa is a teacher at Matsuzaka's school. He hides his marriage from the public because he wants to have a relationship with as many women as possible. He stalks Sato, who later gives him to understand that he is just a pervert .
- Sato's aunt
- She took in her niece after the death of her parents. Initially, Sato's aunt only appears in her niece's mind games when she doubts or is unsure about love , giving the impression that she was murdered. However, this turns out to be a mistake as the series progresses. At first she seems happy and cheerful, but she is mentally unstable and crazy. She also accepts any form of longing with an insane, masochistic pleasure. This led Satō to develop a similar image of love and affection. She lives in the same building complex.
