8->'''Voiced by''': Creator/KenichiSuzumura
9Junpei Manaka is a teenage school student, and the protagonist to the series. Junpei is constantly getting strung up in numerous embarrassing but endearing romantic situations throughout middle and then high school. His indecisiveness between the girls he loves—Aya, Satsuki, and Tsukasa—and inability to decipher their feelings is the focal point of the story. His dream is to make films as a director.
10----
11* AccidentalPervert: Several times.
12* ButtMonkey: Junpei is often subjected to this as well. Often mocked and abused, with characters remarking on the pairings he has in the series, and he initially doesn't succeed when it comes to filmmaking. Noticeably, the four [=OVAs=] of the TV show all end with him being beaten viciously by the other club members as a result of misunderstandings.
13* CanNotSpitItOut: Can't spit it out his love for Aya.
14* ChickMagnet: Even if he is not a popular guy in the school, he is targeted by four girls.

19* JerkassBall: While Junpei is a nice guy in most of the moments, he had his jerk moments. [[spoiler:His reactions to Satsuki in some moments were too far. While sometimes she gone too far in her advances against him, Junpei responses to it were way worse (especially considering he had feelings for her). In the second half, after choosing Tsukasa, he was way more interested in doing something special (like sex) with her while ignoring the fact she wanted to spend her last moments with him before going to France to study.]]
20* KavorkaMan: He's not ugly, but there's no apparent reason why he should catch the attention of so many beautiful girl. Gets point because one of the people who [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] this to Junpei is ''Tsukasa Nishino'' herself ''when they were dating at the start of the manga'' (she then concluded that her standards wouldn't allow her to fall for a worthless person, so Junpei had to have hidden qualities she had noticed unconsciously. [[spoiler: She had actually noticed them consciously well before getting the declaration, but had forgot about him until that fateful day]]).
21** Having one of the main girls lampshade this in Junpei's face becomes a RunningGag, with a particularly [[HilarityEnsues funny]] occasion having Tsukasa and Satsuki describe the boy they like as a KavorkaMan only to realize they're ''both'' describing Junpei and start glaring at each other, with Aya silently joining the lampshading when she tries to console Junpei with a sad smile. Still, Tsukasa is the one who does this most often.
22* MrImagination: He has the tendency to get lost in his daydreams. Though, he isn't quite as bad as Kozue.
23* NiceGuy: Junpei is one of the nicest guys in the series, often helping people even to his own detriment. That's also why Nishino fell for him.
24* {{Otaku}}: Junpei's obsession with moviemaking often comes off like this, to the extent that he becomes pretty much the last boy in class to even notice the opposite sex.
25* PursueTheDreamJob: He really wants to become a film director and pursues it during the story. [[spoiler:This is played straight during the time skip when he has an average job but isn't a film director yet. Although in the end, he finally becomes one]].
26* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: His gentleness and kindness is what attracts the girls to him.
27* SitcomArchNemesis: His dyanamic with Amachi, seeing as the rivarly between them is almost exclusively PlayedForLaughs.
28* TwiceShy: With Aya.
29* WalkingTheEarth: [[spoiler: During the time skip after the penultimate chapter. He traveled the world to find inspiration for his next movies]].
