- The Rival: To Kana, which he acknowledges, though she seems to take it much more seriously than he does.
- Tomboy and Girly Girl: The tomboy to Laney's girly-girl.

The Oracle
- Curtains Match the Windows: She has pink hair and eyes.
- The Cutie: Very cute and excitable.
- Does Not Like Spam: Dried Tofu.
- Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": If you marry her or raise her affection high enough she'll eventually tell you her name is actually Ulyssa, but she usually only tells people to call her the Oracle.

- Secret Character: She's only unlocked in your second year when you enter the mountain on foot after a certain time of night and is tucked away in a spot on the map that's easy to ignore. Well, you'll find her eventually. What really makes her a secret romance character is that she's actually one of the marriage candidates, but her affection score isn't displayed the same way as the main ones. Still, at least she's not as difficult as Alisa and her absurd requirements.
- Verbal Tic: Repeating words she's already said.
