Oreshura Anime Characters

Eita Kidō
Eita is the main character who aims to attend medical school after graduating from high school. He is very smart and always places at the top of the school exams. He has a strong distrust for love and romance because of his parents divorcing, finding new lovers, and abandoning him when he was in junior high school, thus calling himself "anti-romance". Despite this, he eventually falls in love with Masuzu. It is revealed that during junior high school, he had teenage delusions and thought of himself as "Burning Fighting Fighter". However, Chiwa's accident caused him to abandon his delusions and decide to become a doctor. His antipathy to romance also stems from the fact that it would interfere with his studying.




Masuzu Natsukawa
Masuzu is Eita's "girlfriend". She is the school beauty who returned to Japan after spending nine years overseas. Like Eita, she hates romance, and is tired of receiving (and rejecting) confessions on a daily basis. Masuzu uses Eita's notebook from middle school, filled with embarrassing notes and scribbles, to blackmail him into pretending to be her boyfriend. She forms a club called "Maiden Society For Performing Your Own Life" where she studies how to become popular. She eventually falls in love with Eita without actually realizing it, and becomes jealous when he interacts with other girls. When she is not with Eita, Masuzu presents a cold manner; but when she is with him, she is more outgoing, mischievous and cunning: she loves to use words to trick him. Like Chiwa, she is a terrible cook. Masuzu likes to quote scenes from the manga JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.




Chiwa Harusaki
Chiwa is Eita's childhood friend. She is usually called "Chiwawa" (chihuahua) by her friends because of her petite physique and pair of twintails that resemble puppy's ears. She started attending the Kendo club in elementary school, but had to drop out the year before she entered high school due to a serious injury she suffered in a car accident. This event is the reason that Eita wants to pursue a medical career - so that he can help her recover fully from her injuries. She does not give up easily and constantly fights Masuzu for Eita's affections. She loves to eat and especially likes meat, but is a terrible cook herself. However, in the light novels she starts improving her cooking skill for Eita. She has had romantic feelings for Eita for years but was too shy to confess until Masuzu arrived in the picture. She finally confesses to Eita at the end of the fourth light novel, but is quickly interrupted by Masuzu and other girls. She dislikes seeing girls getting close to Eita but becomes fast friends with them.




Himeka Akishino
Himeka is Eita's "ex-girlfriend", who has a one-sided crush on him. Himeka has teenage delusions, believing that in a previous life she was "Burning Princess Saint Dragon Lady of Dawn". Having witnessed Eita reveal some of his teenage delusions, she believes that Eita and she were a couple in her previous life. When not immersed in her delusions, Himeka is really quiet and usually only answers questions by nodding. Other girls often call her "princess" (姫 hime?). After hearing of Ai's fake boyfriend story, she refers to Ai as the "Master of Love".




Ai Fuyuumi
Ai is Eita's "fiancée" and childhood friend whom he knew a year before he met Chiwa and who moved away ten years ago but has recently returned. Ai considers herself to be the one for Eita because she confessed to him while they were kindergarten and they even signed a makeshift marriage registration, making them engaged, although Eita didn't understand the concept of marriage. Ai has lied about having a boyfriend in college, and also keeps a notebook like Eita's. Nobody else except Kaoru knows about this. She often has delusions of herself and Eita as a couple. As a member of the student discipline committee, she attempts to stop Chiwa and Masuzu's club activities, but later decides to join the club to win Eita back.




Saeko Kiryū
Saeko is Eita's aunt whom he has lived with since his parents abandoned him. She works at a gaming company that makes mostly bishōjo games, is an expert with such games and always makes analogies of the real world to them with respect to girls. She is a workaholic who can survive long periods of time without sleep. Despite their protestations to the contrary, she knew immediately that Eita and Masuzu were not really a couple just by observation. She often gives Eita advice about getting along with girls and has even told him how to disengage himself from the other girls in case he has chosen one of them.





Kaoru Asoi
She is Eita's classmate and his best friend, who sat next to him until the seat change. She has known Ai since elementary school and calls her A-chan. While initially thought to be male, it is hinted in the story that Kaoru might actually be a girl, or in love with Eita. In the light novels, it is revealed that Kaoru is in fact a girl.




Mana Natsukawa
Mana is Masuzu's little sister, who is seen with a bodyguard at all times. She wants her older sister to come back to Sweden, and even reports on her activities to their father. Even though her relationship with Masuzu is complicated, she seems to love her sister.
