* AmbiguouslyBi: He fell in love with Yukari and was trying to pursue her before finding out that her husband was actually away for work and not dead. He then fell in love with a cute girl he saw at the daycare during the school festival, the thing is that the girl was actually Ryuuichi who was wearing a wig at Yayoi's insistence to avoid having Kirin's papa have a stroke at seeing boys around his precious little girl. Inui eventually found out and was embarrassed but later on it's implied that he's still attracted to Ryuuichi.

* ButtMonkey

* OverprotectiveDad: Kirin's father, taken to a comedic extreme due to the fact they're, you know, toddlers. Her mother had enough foresight to ask the male babysitters to dress up as girls, but Usaida's disguise were not enough to fool him, prompting him to question the motives of the male babysitters and accuse the young boys of being "beasts" that are after his daughter.

* AnimalMotifs: Tigers. His name carries the kanji for tiger and he also often wears tiger printed clothes.
* BabyTalk: Sometimes, Koutaro can speak somewhat normally, but mostly, he speaks in broken sentences and incomplete words. Often, he also simply says "Ung" which most often is his way to say "Ok".
* BigBrotherWorship: Extremely close to Ryuuichi. He looks up to him and dedicates a lot of what he does is in a way or other to please his older brother.
* CatchPhrase: "Ung!"

** Chapter 39 is a heartbreaking one, which focus on Kotarou, after hearing about Kaguya-hime's story, fearing that his brother will leave if he doesn't get him a precious gift like the ones Kaguya asks for in the tale.
** In a chapter, Ryuuichi forgets his lunch in the daycare, so Kotarou goes into a "first errand" style trip around the school to give him his lunch in his homeroom.
* {{Determinator}}: The Chairman and other students notice that, when Ryuuichi is the subject, Kotaro isn't easily deterred. He faces stairs he can't go up easily to deliver his odler brother's lunch and tries to learn kanji so his older brother won't bother with him while he is going through exams week.
* {{Fanboy}}: He is a fan of picture books, always asking for Ryuuichi read to him. He is specially fond of a series of children's books focused on a panda.
* OnlySaneMan: Compared to the rest of the kids, he is level headed and mature for his age, he knows how to act in most situations, like getting lost, and he often settles everyone down when the motions get high among his friends.
* SeriesMascot: Koutaro is in almost all chapter covers of the manga, is the most prominent character in promotional material, even more-so than his brother. So far, he is also the only character to have a solo appearance at the manga covers.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: A tone of green.

[[folder:Taka Kamitani]]
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/taka_9.png]]

* CrazyJealousGuy:
** About Koutaro. He considers himself Koutaro's best friend and dislikes when others try to snatch him away from him. He is also prone to holding Kotaro's hand to push him away from others.
** He also dislikes when his brother doen't pay enough attention to him and others try to spend too long with them. He even pushes other kids who seem too close to his brother.
* NeverMyFault: He has a hard time apologizing and admitting his mistakes, which is noticeable because the other kids do that easily. He will blame whoever is fighting him and it takes until his brother talks with him for him to admit his mistake.
* {{Tsundere}}: Mostly because he gets easily flustered or offended, he can be a boisterous and jerkish kid, but just as easily shifts towards a very sweet and caring sound.

Kirin is the oldest girl on the daycare. Kirin is a bit more educated than her peers and intends to study really hard. She has a fondness for her giraffe plushy that is always seen in the daycare center and is very close to her mom, something her dad finds beautiful, but is also a bit jealous of.

* AnimalMotifs: Giraffes. She loves giraffes and even has one as a favorite plush. Her name also contains the kanji for it.
* BabyTalk: The most pronounced case. Because she speaks in a very polite and developed manner, a way to show that she is still a kid in her speech is by making otherwise eloquent sentences filled with this, she is particularly prone of switching "R" and "L" for "W".
* CuteWitch:
** She wants to be a witch someday and even attempts to fly on a broom during an entire chapter before being saved by Ryuuichi. She quits after the Chairman tells her that she is a 100 years to early for that, and she decides she will become one in the future.
** In the Halloween event of chapter 72, she dresses up as one and is even given the name of "cute witch".
* GirlishPigtails: She sports a pair of these at all times, and always says that her mother did them for her.
* GirlyGirl: Something that often causes trouble in the daycare is how different are her interests to the rest of the boys. She likes to play house, but boys rarely go along with it, specially Taka. This causes her to feel isolated sometimes, up until she meets Kyouko, who befriends her and starts visiting the daycare.
* ParentalFavoritism: Inverted and played for laughs. She is much more fond of her mother than her father and doesn't hide it. In a chapter focused on each family's daily life, his father shows that he feels a bit left out because Kirin is so clearly closer to her mom than him.
* ShipperOnDeck: In a chapter, she attempts to get Inomata and Ryuuichi together when she finds out she likes him.
* WomenAreWiser: She is notably more eloquent and mature than her peers, or at least tries to be.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: He hair is green, almost teal.
