13[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/naoto_7.jpg]]
14
15The Player Avatar of the Classic Kirameki Saga.
16
17[[OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent A teenager with average abilities]], who managed somehow to enter the rather high-ranked Private High School Kirameki. He did this mainly because he’s in love with his estranged childhood friend Shiori Fujisaki, and sets himself on a quest of improving himself so Shiori will think higher of him and thus win her heart and get her confession under the famed [[WorldTree Legendary Tree]], said to grant eternal love to couples bonding on Graduation Day through the love confession of the girl.
18
19The main character's canon regarding his quest for love varies depending of the various games of the Classic Kirameki Saga: while the original ''Tokimeki Memorial'' game and its porting adaptations set him with Shiori as main goal (but can change his mind and [[MultipleEndings go for another of the girls]] he meets during the course of the game), the ''Drama Series'' see him give up on her and [[SecondLove have his true love]] in Saki Nijino for the first one, Ayako Katagiri for the second one, and Miharu Tatebayashi ([[MultipleEndings if you decide not to go the Shiori route]]) in the third one.
20
21His activities also vary depending of the games' canon: while they're not set in the original game, the ''Drama Series'' see him as a Forward Striker in the Soccer Club, or a guitarist in the "Irodori" Band Club.
22
23The Main Protagonist has [[HelloInsertNameHere no set name in all the games of the saga]], but most of the Drama [=CDs=] give him "Naoto Takami" (高見公人) as a CanonName.
24----
25Tropes associated with 'the Main Protagonist / Naoto Takami':
26* TheAce: Can become one if the player raises his parameters high enough. Have to more or less become one if the player wants to win Shiori.
27* BokeAndTsukkomiRoutine: With his best friend Yoshio. This is visible in ''Irodori no Love Song'' as, should Yuko be late for the contest, the player will then go on with Yoshio.
28* CornerOfWoe: Does this in ''Tokimeki Memorial 1'''s Bad Ending.
29* DeadpanSnarker: Especially in regards of his best bud Yoshio's antics. He also makes hilarious comments when correcting spelling mistakes in the articles written for the Graduation Album in ''Tabidachi no Uta''.
30* {{Determinator}}: Is this in the ''Drama Series'', and lampshaded by Shiori in ''Tabidachi no Uta'': she mentions that he's had a "hate losing" and "never give up" mentality ever since he was a little child.
31* FeaturelessProtagonist
32* HeroicBSOD: He gets a few of them in the ''Drama Series'' games, the most notables being found in ''Nijiiro no Seishun'' and ''Tabidachi no Uta'': [[spoiler: two ''massive'' ones at the beginning and near the end of both games. He gets better from each of them however, except in the end game ''Tabidachi no Uta'' one, where if he doesn't persevere, leads to the BadEnd]].
33* HeroicMime: He does speak a lot with other characters, but he’s the only one of the characters who’s not voiced, as part of the Player Avatar thing.
34* GirlsHaveCooties: Part of [[StartOfDarkness the reason why he and Shiori became estranged]], according to ''Tabidachi no Uta'', is that [[spoiler: in their childhood, days after the main protagonist offered a ring to Shiori, she was so pleased with it and with his attention for her, she wanted to offer him a robot toy in return. Unfortunately, as she held out the present box to him, bad kids from the neighbourhood teased the main protagonist for playing with a girl, and embarrassed, he refused her present and hastily left, leaving her alone all sad with her present in her arms.]]
35* ObliviousToLove: Poor [[spoiler: Suzune]] in ''[[spoiler: Irodori no Love Song]]''.
36* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: The fate the Main Protagonist is likely to meet, as Shiori is a NintendoHard character to get the ending of.
37* VictoriousChildhoodFriend: If he ends up with Shiori.
38** In the ''Motto! Tokimeki Memorial'' Radio Drama series, [[spoiler: VictoriousChildhoodFriend is in effect]];
39** In ''Tokimeki Memorial 4'' which occurs 15 years later, [[spoiler: Yuu Satsuki, Shiori's relative and {{Expy}}, implies that he and Shiori got together.]]

47The main heroine of the Classic Kirameki saga.
48
49[[TheAce A talented, beautiful and sociable young girl]] who excels at both studies and sports, so much that’s she dubbed "the Superstar of Kirameki High". She has very high standards for love and expects her ideal boy to be just as perfect as her.
50
51She's the poster girl of the series, with at least a minimal presence even in the games she’s not the star (to the point of managing to make a few [[TheCameo cameos outside the Classic Kirameki Saga!]]), and is the co-heroine (with [[EnsembleDarkhorse Miharu Tatebayashi]]) of the 3rd ''Drama Series'', ''Tabidachi no Uta''. An ''extremely'' popular character among the fans [[MerchandiseDriven who churns out a lot of merchandise]], and who even got her exclusive game, ''[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Tokimeki Memorial Selection: Fujisaki Shiori]]''.
52----
53Tropes associated with Shiori Fujisaki:
54* BerserkButton: Do not compliment her by saying she’s “sexy”. '''''Never'''''. '''EVER'''.
55* CannotSpitItOut: Especially bad [[TheAnimeOfTheGame in the OVA]].
56* CuteSportsClubManager: Can become one if her starting parameters set her as a member of the school's soccer or baseball clubs.
57* GirlNextDoor: She and the main protagonist live in the houses right next to each other.
58* GuestFighter:
59** As Shiori Fujisaki Bomber in ''Super Bomberman R''.
60** She's the pilot of the Heaven's Gate boss in ''Otomedius Excellent''.
61* ImportantHairAccessory: Shiori sure loves her hairbands. Not only is it one of the best gifts for her, it also goes as far as a plot point in ''Tabidachi no Uta''. [[spoiler: When they were little, Shiori gave the protagonist one of her hairbands, as part of a promise between them where he would complete his school's marathon and give it to her at the finishing line. However, he hurts his knee during the race, making him unable to finish it and to keep the promise, further enlarging the gap already started by previous painful event between them. Years later, in high school, the protagonist tries to conquer Shiori's heart and participate in a marathon, but history repeats and he suffers a severe muscle tear the day before the marathon. He is forbidden by doctors to participate despite his vehement protests, [[{{Determinator}} but decides to do symbolically the marathon course the day after anyway]], [[NumberOneDime holding the hairband Shiori gave her in their young days as a charm]]. Despite suffering hell, he finishes the course, and Shiori, who has guessed what happened, is waiting for him at the finishing line. He then gives her the hairband, completing the promise they made back then. Cue the love confession between them afterwards.]]
62* LockedInARoom: [[spoiler: Or rather, trapped on a Ferris wheel. During a date to the amusement park in the winter season after Shiori is in "enraptured" state, if you choose to ride the ferris wheel, it stalls, leaving the pair trapped up high. Shiori becomes frightened, but the protagonist takes her mind off it by showing her what a great view it is from up there.]]
63* LoveEpiphany: At the end of the first OVA, she wonders about this.
64* NiceGirl: She's very kind and thoughtful.
65* SnowMeansLove: One of her events in the original game, occurring [[spoiler: after the Christmas party at Ijuin's BigFancyHouse]].
66* SpotlightStealingSquad: Shiori is a shining example of this [[TheAnimeOfTheGame in the OAV]].
67* TearsOfJoy: [[spoiler: Save for ''Memories Ringing On'', she does this in all her Endings of both the various games of the franchise she's a winnable character, and the OAV]].
68* TraumaSwing: Does this during an event of ''Tokimeki No Houkago'' where she's troubled and confused regarding her growing feelings towards Naoto.
69%% * UmbrellaOfTogetherness: One of her Events.
70%% * WellExcuseMePrincess
71%% * WithThisRing

73[[WMG:'''Saki Nijino''']]
74!!!Voiced by: Creator/SachikoSugawara
75[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/saki_nijino.jpg]]
76
77A kind, cheerful and very sociable girl, [[SupremeChef skilled at cooking]], who holds family values in high regard, and loves to take care of her friends, be their energy, and cheer them up. She's so well-loved for this, she's known as the "Idol of the Sports Club of Kirameki High" among the boys. She's always on the lookout for potential good sportsmen, and this is one of the ways the protagonist can meet her. Believing that doing one’s best in everything is more important than winning, her ideal type is determined sportsmen, even though she's not herself that athletic.
78
79She’s the manager of either the Soccer Club or the Baseball Club, leading to a conflicting canon as to which of the two clubs she is in: the ''Drama Series'' games and the Radio and CD Dramas make her the manager of the Soccer Club, while ''Tokimeki no Houkago'' puts her as the manager of the Baseball Club.
80
81Due to her kind character and her very high versatility in tastes, [[EnsembleDarkhorse she's one of the most popular characters in the entire series among fans]], to the point where she has beaten extremely well-loved Shiori in official and game magazines character polls. This popularity was recognized by the series' creators, who made her the heroine of the first ''Drama Series'' game, ''Nijiiro no Seishun''.
82----
83Tropes associated with Saki Nijino:
84* ApologeticAttacker: In both ''Tokimeki Memorial Taisen Puzzle'' and ''Tokkae Dama'', she apologizes to the opponent in her winning speeches.
85* BitingTheHandkerchief: Saki does this when she's defeated in ''Tokimeki Memorial Taisen Puzzle Dama''.
86* TheCameo: [[spoiler:She's the manager of the baseball club in ''Tokimeki Memorial 2 Substories: Leaping School Festival'']]
87* CatchPhrase: She loves to cheer up people by screaming "Gambatte!" ("Do your best!")
88* CuteSportsClubManager: The DatingSim UrExample. She's the manager of either the soccer or baseball club depending on the continuity, and all the team members greatly admire and appreciate her for the work she does for them.
89* EverythingsBetterWithRainbows: On the symbolical level: Rainbow is one of the two main elements (along with a soccer ball) in the cover, title screen, [[spoiler: and ending]] of ''Nijiiro no Seishun''. No wonder, as Saki's family name, "Nijino", means "Field of Rainbow" in Japanese.
90* ExtremeDoormat: To a degree. One way to bring her to "enraptured" state is to play hard to get by not asking her out on dates and turning her down when she asks you out, as long as she doesn't bomb you. Because of this it's possible to accidentally win her while trying to go after another girl.
91* KissOfLife: In her summer event at the pool in the original game, Saki will nearly drown, needing a Kiss of Life. [[spoiler: Just as the protagonist is about to start it, she comes back to her senses. When he tells her later about it, she panics, asking if he performed it. When she learns the truth, she's somewhere between relieved and disappointed, uttering "if only I stayed unconscious a little bit longer..." She changes the subject [[LuminescentBlush while blushing furiously]] when the protagonist asks her what she just said]].
92* MultitaskedConversation: [[spoiler: What caused the whole "Misunderstanding" Event in ''Nijiiro no Seishun''.]]
93* PinkySwear: With the protagonist. It's a driving force of ''Nijiiro no Seishun'' 's plot.
94* RealLifeWritesThePlot: In an interview inside one of ''Nijiiro no Seishun''’s official guidebook, Saki's {{seiyuu}}, Creator/SachikoSugawara, revealed that she caught a cold coincidentally at the time of recording the scene where [[spoiler: Saki went down with a fever after waiting for the main protagonist under the rain the whole day, and talks with him while she’s bedridden]]. Her voice was low and rough, and it was difficult for her to act, so the voicing session was hell for her. However, she was extremely happy to hear from lots of people who played the game that they found her performance in this scene extremely realistic and fantastic.
95* SupremeChef: Her bento are so delicious, they are nicknamed "[=NijiBen=]" (PortManteau of "Nijino" and "Bento") and are considered, according to [[BromanticFoil Yoshio]], one of the girls’ 3 most valuable items in Kirameki High, along with Shiori’s hairband and Mira’s earrings. [[HeroicSelfDeprecation She considers her cooking skills as her only talent]], and thus [[spoiler: she plans to go to a school specialzed in teaching cooking, instead of going to an university, in order to hone them.]] Despite this, she's one of the girls who can botch the dinner at the club's summer camp.
96* TeamMom: She's this for the club she's the manager of.
97* TearsOfJoy: Does this in the original game's [[MeaningfulName aptly named]] Special Event "Tears Of Joy", which occurs if both you and Saki are members of the baseball club, and you win the Koshien (the National Inter-high Baseball Championship). She also sheds these in [[spoiler: the ending of the ''Nijiiro no Sotsugyoushiki'' scenario of ''Tabidachi no Uta'', i.e. the True Epilogue of ''Nijiiro no Seishun'']].
98* ThroughHisStomach: One of her dating tactics towards the main protagonist, when she's in love with him. Both in the original game and ''Nijiiro no Seishun'', she'll treat him with her famous "[=NijiBen=]".
99* YamatoNadeshiko: Downplayed; while she's skilled at cooking, enjoys taking care of her friends in a motherly way and is very dedicated to upholding family tradition, she doesn't have the typical hairstyle (having short, light blue hair rather than a HimeCut) and is more upbeat and energetic than the archetype usually is.

102[[WMG:'''Ayako Katagiri''']]
103!!!Voiced by: Masayo Kawaguchi
104[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ayako.jpg]]
105
106A fun-loving girl who loves speaking with [[GratuitousEnglish English sentences mixed in her speech]]. She has two main passions: art, and singing.
107She loves to draw pictures, and is talented at it. She enjoys looking at paintings a lot, and is a big fan of Grotesque painter Gergi (a ShoutOut to Creator/HRGiger, who's the designer of Franchise/{{Alien}}).
108
109She's also the singer of the band club "Irodori", in the second ''Drama Series'' game, ''Irodori no Love Song'', a game where she’s the heroine, thanks to being [[EnsembleDarkhorse the fourth most popular character among fans]] in ''Tokimeki Memorial 1''.

112* AnimeHair: Ayako has such a special haircut.

116* GratuitousEnglish: Frequently throws English words into her dialogue.
117* KaraokeBox: One of her events occurs there, allowing her to display her awesome singing skills.

She skips swimming lessons at school whenever possible, will panic if you force her to go swimming at the beach, and she has a hilarious BokeAndTsukkomiRoutine with resident swimming lover, Nozomi. However, unlike her {{Expy}} Lesley of '' [[VideoGame/MitsumeteKnight Mitsumete]] '' ''[[SpiritualSuccessor Knight]]''[[invoked]], the reasons behind this fear were never explained.
119
120[[WMG:'''Miharu Tatebayashi''']]

123
124An extremely shy girl [[LoveAtFirstSight who fell in love at first sight]] for the main protagonist on School Entrance Day, but can't muster the courage to tell him her feelings. Instead, she tries to make him notice her by [[CrashIntoHello "accidentally" crashing into him]], appearing in a date spot and claiming she mistook him for someone else, or calling him at his home and saying it was the wrong number.
125
126She's fond of koalas, [[AnimeHair she even puts her hair in koala ear-shape]], and goes as far as wearing a koala costume to sometimes be able to follow the main protagonist when he has dates at the Amusement Park.
127
128Miharu is, in the original game, a secret character the player couldn't date, and was made by the creators as a consolation character for the players who haven't managed to get the confession of any other character (even though there's a chance you can miss her as well). Despite all this, she became ''very'' [[EnsembleDarkhorse popular among fans of the series]], to the point she was made the co-heroine with Shiori in the third ''Drama Series'' game, ''Tabidachi no Uta'',
129----
130Tropes associated with Miharu Tatebayashi:
131* AnimeHair: She wears part of her hair in two very large loops. This is invoked on her part, since she loves koalas and styles her hair to resemble koala ears.

133%%* CannotSpitItOut
134%%* CrashIntoHello
135* EasierThanEasy: [[spoiler:She's actually quite easy to win if you want to win her on purpose, almost as much as Rei Ijuin. Simply concentrate on building your stats to the maximum and don't go on dates with anyone, and you're good to go. She's not affected by "bombs"; she just likes high stats like Shiori.]]
136* GracefulLoser: [[spoiler: [[TheAnimeOfTheGame Near the end of the OVA]], she concedes defeat to Shiori all while crying in the last of their phones’ sessions.]]
137%%* LoveAtFirstSight
138%%* SecretCharacter
139%%* ShrinkingViolet

187
188Yoshio's little sister. She's one year younger than the rest of the cast, and thus makes her entrance in the original game at the start of the main protagonist's second year of high school.
189
190She desperately wants to be seen as an adult, but [[{{Kawaiiko}} her cute looks, childish attitudes]] and hobbies ([[{{Otaku}} she likes video games, anime]] and pro-wrestling), make it impossible for others to see her as so. If the player plans to win her heart, he must make sure to treat her as a woman and not as a cute girl.
191
192In early promotional arts and merchandise, she was planned as one of the poster characters, along with Shiori, Yoshio and Rei. However, she wasn't nearly as popular as other girls like [[EnsembleDarkhorse Saki, Ayako or Miharu]].

199* GenkiGirl: So much, she gets [[SunnySunflowerDisposition the sunflower as her symbolic flower]].
200%%* {{Kawaiiko}}
201* LethalChef: After being jealous of Saki sharing her lunch with you, she'll decide to cook for you. Be afraid... ''very afraid''.
202** However, her scenario in ''Tabidachi no Uta'' revolves around helping her improving her cooking skills so she can give her brother Yoshio a delicious meal, and actually ''succeeds'' in doing so in the end.
203* ThirdPersonPerson: She likes addressing herself by her name.
204* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Being a wrestling fan, Yumi has her own FinishingMove which she refined by using it against her brother [[spoiler:and the protagonist as well in ''Nijiiro no Seishun'']], the "Yumi Bomber", a lariat/grappling-like move.
205

209
210[[ShrinkingViolet A shy]] and gentle bookworm girl [[DelicateAndSickly with a weak body]], suffering from anemia, and thus often passing out. Because of this, she can’t do sports (not like she likes sports to start with), or have violent emotions, and thus prefer going out to calm and peaceful places on dates.
211
212She loves reading books so much, she’s able to read ''four of them per day'', her favourite author being Goethe. Like Shiori, she also loves classical music and romance movies. Her ideal type of boy is someone kind, intelligent and studious.

215----
216Tropes associated with Mio Kisaragi:
217* BespectacledCutie: She wears glasses, which adds to her appeal as a sweet, shy CuteBookworm.
218* CuteBookworm: She's a cute, sweet girl who loves books. In ''Nijiiro no Seishun'', she explains she became one because she loves books and read them since she was little, to the point that back then, at night, she often put herself under her blankets and used a lamptorch so she could fool her parents in believing she was sleeping and thus be able to continue reading.
219* DelicateAndSickly: She suffers from anemia and is prone to {{Fainting}}.
220* TheGlassesGottaGo: In a date at the cinema, after she removed her glasses so she could wipe her teary eyes due to a romantic scene, you get the option to tell her she looks pretty without her glasses, which will prompt her to change to contacts at the end. This is optional though, as you can also tell her she's fine with them, and she'll wear them in the end.
221* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler:In Radio Drama canon she becomes Yoshio’s girlfriend.]]

228Shiori's best friend. [[ShrinkingViolet A very shy girl]] who has a [[FriendToAllLivingThings deep love for animals]]. She eventually falls in love with the protagonist during the course of the game if he has good grades, but she's so timid she asks Shiori to introduce her to him.

252* HiddenDepths: She seems like a haughty RichBitch upon first glance, but [[spoiler:this personality is actually a facade.

However, while this EvilPlan was exciting at the beginning, she grew sick of it, and deep in her heart she wishes to find the one boy who would see the real her hidden deep under this hard exterior, love her for who she really is, and allow her to muster the courage to turn back to her old self]].
253* InstantFanClub: The three guys who constantly take orders from her and follow her around at school.

256* NoblewomansLaugh: A classic example.
257* ParentalSubstitute: [[spoiler:She has six brothers to take care of. This explains why she hasn't joined any clubs, cancels dates with the protagonist at times, where her skills at sewing come from, and why she's so adamant at refusing anyone to walk home with her after school.

296* OddFriendship: She's good friends with Ayako, who’s renowned for [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes her fear of water]]. This is often played with in the Classic Kirameki canon, and Nozomi often gives a reluctant Ayako swimming lessons so she can overcome this fear.
297* ShrinkingViolet: When she's in "enraptured" state, she becomes very shy when she bumps into you after school (she'll stutter, then run away; not to be mistaken for a "bomb" warning, where she's angry and scolding you before running away).

316%%* CustomUniform
317* EasierThanEasy: [[spoiler:Rei is actually the easiest character to get the ending of in the original game, once you know the trick. Just call her on the phone 70 times and you're good to go; you don't even have to work on your stats.]]

320* HugeSchoolgirl: [[spoiler:Forget Nozomi (163 cm) or even Mira (167 cm) and Patricia (168 cm), Rei is by far the tallest girl in the cast, with her 172 cm! It helps her in making her boy disguise more convicing.]]

327* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: Subversion in that Rei likes to show off the Ijuin family's wealthiness, but never uses it for evil ends. In fact, he's the one who hosts the New Year's party.

331* WalkingSpoiler: [[spoiler:As one can probably plainly tell from the tropes and the spoilers, and the very fact that "he" is sorted amongst the dateable ''girls'', makes it clear that there is more to Rei than it seems, namely that [[SamusIsAGirl she is actually a girl]] crossdressing as a boy, and as such becomes hard to dicuss anything about her character in any detail without giving away her this twist.]]

Thanks to her contact with the protagonist if she meets him, her Japanese improves with time.
339
340She has a cheerful personality, but gets lonely easily, and misses her home country. Being a very kind person by nature, it's hard to anger her, but when she does get angry, she's terrifying. She loves cycling and watching BMX related stuff.

343----
344Tropes associated with Patricia [=McGrath=]:
345* AnimeAccentAbsence: Averted, as the language barrier is a plot point in Patricia's storyline. As such, her seiyuu plays her with a clipped voice and speaking pattern.

410Tropes associated with Yukinojou Sotoi:
