| 19 | ---- |
| 20 | * AffectionateNickname: |
| 21 | ** Ema's classmate and friend, Maho, refers to her as "Hina". This is very convenient since it's a shortened version of both her maiden name, "Hinata" and her new family name, "Asahina". |
| 22 | ** Both Louis and Juli call her "Chi". |
| 23 | * AudienceSurrogate: To the point where she unfortunately gets little characterization of her own. |

| 36 | * HiddenDepths: She likes zombie video games. |

| 74 | ---- |
| 75 | * AfraidOfBlood: Despite being a pediatrician. |
| 76 | * BrainyBrunette: Well versed in the knowledge of medicine. {{Justified|Trope}} since he's a doctor. |

| 78 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Masaomi has dark brown eyes and hair. |
| 79 | * FriendToAllChildren: He loves children and even has a special bond with Wataru. |
| 80 | * HappilyMarried: [[spoiler:In his route with Ema.]] |
| 81 | * HospitalHottie: His occupation is a doctor and like his brothers, Masaomi is quite handsome. |
| 82 | * {{Irony}}: Despite the fact that Masaomi is a doctor, he does faint at the sight of blood. Virtually every type of doctor has to deal with blood. |
| 83 | * NiceGuy: He's polite, mature, and mellow. |
| 84 | * OlderThanTheyLook: Downplayed. When you compare him to Ukyo and Kaname, he has softer facial features, his voice isn't as deep as them, and he's also shorter than them. This was brought up in the drama cds where it was mentioned he looks pretty young for a 31 year-old. |
| 85 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Though not played for drama. His character bio describes him as calm and rarely getting mad. In the game, it's possible to go through multiple playthroughs without ever seeing his angry sprite. The only time it does come up if one of his brothers (namely the ones in Passionate Pink) tries to interrupt his date with Ema. |
| 86 | * ParentalSubstitute: He is the typical father figure of the household (considering his age) and looks over Wataru more often than most of the other brothers. |
| 87 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: At least according to Miwa. Out of all the brothers, Masaomi resembles their late dad the most. |
| 88 | * SweetTooth: He usually has candy with him in his official art. |

| 103 | * HouseHusband: He's the cook of the house, and is frequently seen in an apron. |
| 104 | * MotorMouth: {{Downplayed}}. Ukyo doesn't talk a whole lot, but he can be quite social once he does have someone to talk to. |
| 105 | * NotSoAboveItAll: He realizes in his route he can be hot-blooded and aggressive like Yusuke and Tsubaki. |
| 106 | * RealMenCook: He is in charge of cooking/making meals. |
| 107 | * SharpDressedMan: Wears some pretty snazzy suits. |
| 108 | * SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Gender-flipped. Because Ema helped him remember that he was an important part in the functioning daily life of the family, and also helped him see that everything he did was appreciated and did not go unnoticed. These small gestures, like welcoming him home, thanking him, letting him know he was missed, eventually made him fall in love with her. |
| 109 | * SmartPeopleWearGlasses: He wears glasses and is a successful lawyer. |
| 110 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: He looks like his mother as they both have blond hair and blue eyes. |

| 117 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JunichiSuwabe (Japanese), Creator/IanSinclair (English) |
| 118 | |
| 119 | The third son of the Asahina family. A monk. |
| 120 | ---- |
| 121 | * BigBrotherInstinct: Kaname is very protective over Iori. {{Justified|Trope}} when it's revealed [[spoiler: that Iori is somewhat suicidal]]. |
| 122 | * BigLittleBrother: He is more taller and muscular than his two older brothers, Masaomi and Ukyo. |
| 123 | * TheCasanova: Judging by his flirting with Ema, he might be this trope. |
| 124 | * ChickMagnet: He has endless amounts of women chasing after him. Most of his brothers have revealed they are jealous of the fact Kaname is "irresistible" to women and that he has endless amounts of "followers." |
| 125 | * ChivalrousPervert: A flirt? Yes. A NiceGuy who wouldn't force his feelings on Ema? Correct again. |
| 126 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Yellow eyes and blonde hair. |
| 127 | * DirtyOldMonk: He's a monk, but tried to kiss his younger step sister.....the day they met no less! |
| 128 | * HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: In the ChivalrousPervert variety; Kaname is described as the "most reliable brother" from Masaomi, the oldest Asahina brother. |
| 129 | * HandsomeLech: A handsome man who loves to flirt with women, including his stepsister. |
| 130 | * HiddenDepths: |
| 131 | ** He's a DirtyOldMonk who happens to be a NiceGuy and TheReliableOne. |
| 132 | ** Kaname is skilled at reading people's feelings. |
| 133 | * ImportantHaircut: [[spoiler:In his route Kaname cuts off his long hair, symbolizing that he has changed from the flirty, casanova monk to a serious, businessman who would do anything for the girl (Ema) he loves.]] |
| 134 | * LadykillerInLove: Began as a flirt, but comes to stop when he falls for Ema. |
| 135 | * TheReliableOne: Masaomi at one point states that Kaname is the [[HiddenDepths more reliable than himself.]] |
| 136 | * SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Gender-flipped. Before Ema came to the family, Kaname was infamous for being a playboy, nothing more. However, Ema saw through his "gracious words" to the kind man he was within, even telling him that she knew he was a good person, which was a first for Kaname. The mere fact that she didn't fall for him like other women, and treated him and his brothers with genuine kindness was enough to spark his interest, and he soon found himself ever drawn in by her kind and caring heart. |

| 143 | |
| 144 | The fourth son of the Asahina family. A novelist. |
| 145 | ---- |
| 146 | * CovertPervert: In the Christmas Special, he takes a bath with Ema, both of them are naked and ''nothing'' happened. He still enjoyed watching her discomfort though. This trope is more obvious in the novel and his route however. |
| 147 | * DeadpanSnarker |
| 148 | * FieryRedhead: So far {{Averted}}. |
| 149 | * HaremNanny: He keeps track of his brothers' feelings for Ema and teases them about. He even ''[[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments created a chart with the odds of each one winning her over.]]'' [[spoiler: In episode 12 he tells Ema that her rejections did not get across completely and how the [[TitleDrop 'Brothers Conflict']] will continue, with him in the fray.]] |
| 150 | * {{Jerkass}}: He has a sharp tongue and teases Ema and his brothers mercilessly. In the novels, he attempted to convince his brothers to force themselves on Ema. This earns him a well-deserved punch by Kaname. |
| 151 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite the above, in the end, he is a good person who cares about his family, albeit in an unorthodox manner. |
| 152 | * LongHairedPrettyBoy: Hikaru is a very handsome guy with long hair. Especially when he isn't crossdressing. |
| 153 | * ManipulativeBastard: He fits this trope to a T. |
| 154 | * RealMenWearPink: He feels no shame over wearing girly dresses. |
| 155 | * SignificantGreenEyedRedhead: The only one among his brothers to have orange hair and green eyes. |
| 156 | * SmokingIsCool: Has been shown occasionally in the novel to smoke alongside Natsume. |

| 158 | * WholesomeCrossdresser: Zigzagged. He wants to get a feel for what it's like to be a woman, but in doing so, he does the same thing he accuses "tranny"'s of doing. |

| 165 | The fifth son of the Asahina family and the first out of triplets with Azusa and Natsume. A seiyuu. |
| 166 | ---- |
| 167 | * BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: The beauty to Azusa's brains and Natsume's brawn. Notably the only triplet to have his ears pierced, have dyed his hair multiple times, and likes to go clothes shopping. |
| 168 | * BlueOniRedOni: The playful, aggressive red to Azusa's calm, mature blue. |
| 169 | * CharacterDevelopment: Once he realizes that he's fallen in love with Ema as a man he becomes increasingly aggressive in his advances towards her. Shown in episode 6, whenever he pushes her down and pins her on the couch before forcefully kissing her. He is also shown to get extremely jealous whenever he sees Ema with one of his other brothers, especially Azusa. However, he later comes to realize that he has to be more considerate of her feelings so as not to hurt her. This causes him to become less forceful with her, but also makes his feelings intensify. |
| 170 | * CrazyJealousGuy: Exhibits this to Ema after they share their first kiss. He asks her where he got the men's scarf (a Christmas present from Natsume) and admitted it "ticked him off". |
| 171 | * HeterosexualLifePartners: With Azusa. |
| 172 | * NiceMeanAndInBetween: He's not mean per say, but he really does pick on and embarrass some of his brothers and can be considered too self-absorbed to an extent. |
| 173 | * {{Otaku}}: Is obsessed with imoutos and loves anime and games featuring them. |
| 174 | * SameSexTriplets: He, Azusa, and Natusme are triplets with beauty marks and violet eyes. |
| 175 | * SeriesMascot: Along side with Azusa. They're usually front and center on the games' cover. |
| 176 | * SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Gender-flipped. Ema helped him to feel needed by someone who wasn't his twin, saying that while Azusa was good at some things, Tsubaki had roles all his own that only he could play. She made him realize that he had to stop comparing himself to Azusa, and just be himself, because it was the things that made him different from his twin that made him unique. She encouraged him in his goals and reignited his passion and drive, but also made him see that there were other people in the world, people that might look at him instead of Azusa. These small actions, that showed how much she cared for him and his brothers, are what eventually make him fall in love with her, and cause him to mature drastically. |
| 177 | * TechnicolorEyes: Tsubaki has violet eyes. |

| 185 | ---- |
| 186 | * AlliterativeName: '''A'''zusa '''A'''sahina. He's the ''only'' one in his family to have this. |
| 187 | * AllLoveIsUnrequited: This could be said for all the Asahina brothers, but Azusa gets a special mention since he explicitly tells Ema that he's fallen in love with her in Tsubaki's route and he knows his feelings are one-sided since Ema is already in love with his twin brother. Subverted if you go for the [[GuideDangit secret threesome ending]]. |
| 188 | * AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Unintentionally this to Tsubaki. |
| 189 | * BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: The brains to Tsubaki's beauty and Natsume's brawn. As told by Ukyo, Azusa had high marks in high school and could pretty much apply and go to any college he wanted to. |
| 190 | * BlindWithoutEm: He can't see well without his glasses. Tsubaki has poor eyesight too, but to a lesser extent. He tries to convince Azusa to wear contacts like he does, but Azusa finds them very troublesome. |
| 191 | * BlueOniRedOni: The calm, mature blue to Tsubaki's playful, aggressive red. |
| 192 | * BornLucky: His New Year's event reveals that each year, when the triplets draw fortunes at the shrine, he usually gets good luck while the other two gets bad luck. |
| 193 | * BrilliantButLazy: Only implied in the games, but actually gets more focus in the novels. He's actually pretty good at a number of activities but feels no real passion towards them. Even in voice acting, which he really likes, he doesn't work as hard as Tsubaki and is still considered the superior seiyuu. |
| 194 | * CovertPervert: In the Valentine's Day episode, he is seen to be day dreaming about sharing a bath with Ema, and he mistakenly kisses the bowl in front of him, believing it to be Ema in his fantasy. |
| 195 | * HeterosexualLifePartners: With Tsubaki. |
| 196 | * InsecureLoveInterest: He worries that Ema would prefer Tsubaki over him as a partner than him. Thankfully, it gets resolved later in his route. |
| 197 | %% * NeatFreak |
| 198 | * NiceGuy: Azusa is very caring. He often thinks about others before himself. |
| 199 | * NiceMeanAndInBetween: Out of the triplets, he's the nicest of three, since he always looks after his younger brothers and is always considering their feelings. Not unlike [[TeamDad Masaomi]] and [[TeamMom Ukyo.]] |
| 200 | * PlayerNudge: In Iori's route, one event has him noticed that Ema seems troubled because of Iori's weird behavior, so he asks if she wants to talk about her issues. If the player selects yes, Azusa will basically tell her that she needs spend time with the family and the problems will eventually be solved. This is the closest the game will hint to [[GuideDangit getting Iori's good ending.]] |
| 201 | * SameSexTriplets: He, Tsubaki, and Natsume are triplets with beauty marks and violet eyes. |
| 202 | * SeriesMascot: Along side with Tsubaki. They're usually front and center on the games' cover. |

| 212 | * AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Inverted. He's usually annoyed by Azusa and Tsubaki, his older brothers. |
| 213 | * BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: The brawn to Azusa's brains and Tsubaki's beauty. He used to be in the track team back in high school and is still good at running in the present. |
| 214 | * BigBrotherInstinct: Either by looking Subaru's athletic career or saving Wataru from falling in a pond. |
| 215 | * BigLittleBrother: He's both the youngest and most muscular (and mature) of the triplets. |
| 216 | * BrokenPedestal: His younger brother, Subaru, used to look up to Natsume because of his skill in sports. However, Natsume realized sports could not give him a better future and quit. He explains that even if he had continued, he would be doing it half-heartedly. This was the root of Subaru's hate for Natsume. |
| 217 | * BrutalHonesty: {{Downplayed}}. Natsume is only honest when it's appropriate and he have a point when he's being honest. |
| 218 | * FieryRedhead: {{Averted}}. He's pretty calm and mellow and he dyed his hair an ornage-reddish color. |
| 219 | * InSeriesNickname: He is called "Na-kun" by Wataru and "Natsu-nii" by Subaru. |
| 220 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Natsume has a blunt way of talking, but greatly encourages other people. He is very strict when it comes to problems and will willingly help to resolve it. He is rather calm and would protect his siblings. |
| 221 | * MostGamersAreMale: He's part of a videogame company; Ema enjoys the games from his company. |
| 222 | * NiceMeanAndInBetween: He's in between. He doesn't tease as much as Tsubaki or look after as much as Azusa. He did had a meaningful bond with Subaru, but when they had a falling out, he didn't really do anything to repair that bond. |

| 235 | * CrazyJealousGuy: {{Downplayed}}. There is a slight jealous shade to him, shown in the Valentine's Day special, when Iori comes out with a bouque of chocolate roses for Ema, Louis, along with the others who had tried and failed to make chocolates for her, ate one of the roses in the bouque so Iori wouldn't win. He was also shown to be worried at the end when he wonders who Ema bought the special chocolate for, at first being at peace if it was Juli.
