* LateForSchool: She winds up late for her first day of junior year.
* LovingAShadow: [[spoiler: Future Suwa believes that Naho only came to love him because he consciously attempted to imitate Kakeru's persona as much as possible after his death, and thus he's being unfair for the both of them.

Future!Suwa doesn't give any specific advice about the day when he confessed to her after Naho and Kakeru had a fight, but Present!Suwa decides by himself to not confess his feelings, in order to not get in the way of Naho and Kakeru from the present getting together]].

!Main Characters
!!Naho Takomiya
!!!Voiced by: Creator/KanaHanazawa (Japanese), Jill Harris (English)
The heroine of the series. The plot is kickstarted when 16-year-old Naho receives a letter from her future self, with instructions on how to create a future where Kakeru doesn't die.
* CannotSpitItOut: In the original timeline, Naho never got up the nerve to confess to Kakeru.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: Future Naho has longer hair.
* HappilyMarried:
** In the original timeline, Naho is married to Suwa. Although they both regret Kakeru's death, they love each other and their child. [[spoiler: This is negated by the movie, which states that she's unhappy in her marriage and still dreams of Kakeru until then.]]
** In the new timeline, [[spoiler: Naho and Kakeru marry and have a child together.]]
* LateForSchool: She winds up late for her first day of junior year.
* LovingAShadow: [[spoiler: Future Suwa believes that Naho only came to love him because he consciously attempted to imitate Kakeru's persona as much as possible after his death, and thus he's being unfair for the both of them. This is one of the reasons why he tells his alternate self not to confess to Naho.]]
* ObliviousToLove: In the new timeline, she doesn't catch on to Suwa's feelings for her.
* TheProtagonist: The primary viewpoint character.
* ShrinkingViolet: She's incredibly shy, which her future self believes contributed to Kakeru's death.
* TeamMom: She looks after her friends like a mother, something Kakeru lampshades.
* ThroughHisStomach: Naho makes a bento lunchbox for Kakeru, which she's too shy to give him at first, but when she works up the courage it makes him very happy and she promises to keep making them for him. She stops making them when he starts dating Ueda, but after he breaks up with Ueno he tells her that he missed eating her lunches.
!!Kakeru Nanase
!!!Voiced by: Seiichirou Yamashita (Japanese), Creator/MicahSolusod (English)
A NewTransferStudent from Tokyo, and the subject of the letters sent to Naho.
* {{Bishonen}}: Kakeru stands out for his athletic yet slender figure, smooth face, beautiful eyes, and deep, warm voice.
* BrokenBird: Kakeru used to be a happy and optimistic kid, but his mother's death turned him pessimistic and cynical.
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:His fate in the original timeline, although Naho and company don't find this out until much later.]]
* StepfordSmiler: His friends regret that they never picked up on his depression because of this trope. Even in the new timeline, Naho notes that although he smiles and laughs often, his wholehearted smiles are rare.

* NiceGuy: Suwa is constantly supportive and understanding of his friends. He even [[spoiler: pushes Naho to end up with Kakeru despite his own feelings for her]].
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Suwa wants Naho to be happy even if it means letting someone else have her, [[spoiler: to the point that even his future self from the original timeline, who is married and has a child with Naho, advises Present!Suwa to let Kakeru and Naho enjoy their time together, as she only had eyes for him back then. Future!Suwa doesn't give any specific advice about the day when he confessed to her after Naho and Kakeru had a fight, but Present!Suwa decides by himself to not confess his feelings, in order to not get in the way of Naho and Kakeru from the present getting together]].
* ScrewDestiny: He eventually learns [[spoiler: in his letter that he confessed his feelings to Naho on New Year's Eve, which was the trigger for the two of them to start dating and end up married in the future. Wanting to change things and give Kakeru and Naho a chance, Suwa decides to not confess his feelings but merely comfort Naho]].
