Bottom-tier Character Tomozaki

Fumiya Tomozaki is a high school student who is on top of the leaderboards of the popular online game Attack Families under the in-game handle "nanashi". A social outcast, he regards Attack Families as a "godly game" that has perfect balance where equal amounts of effort is rewarded with equal amounts of success. In contrast, he considers real life to be a "trash game". One day following a match against the number two player "NO NAME", they agree to meet in person. When they do so, Tomozaki is surprised to find out NO NAME is actually a classmate of his named Aoi Hinami. Taken aback that Tomozaki is nanashi, Hinami decides to help him overcome his issues.

:Tomozaki is a high school student who has been living as a social outcast at school. Due to his success in Attack Families, he often compares both his real life and gaming life. His perspectives begins to change as it is revealed to him that his perfect classmate Aoi Hinami, who all along has been trailing behind him at second place on Attack Families' leaderboards, regards real life as a winnable game and offers to be his walkthrough. He has a younger sister.

;{{Nihongo|Aoi Hinami|日南 葵|Hinami Aoi}}

:{{Voiced by|Haruka Tomatsu (commercial), Hisako Kanemoto (anime)|Faye Mata}}

:Hinami is Tomozaki's classmate who has been regarded as a perfect existence. She essentially excels at everything she does, whether socially, academically or in sports by leading her own class clique, topping the school in grades and excelling at track and field competitions, all while maintaining a likable personality. Behind the scenes, she puts in a terrifying amount of hard work, and is a strong believer of concrete, dedicated effort in order to succeed at everything. Hinami is also an avid fan of Attack Families, where she goes by "NO NAME", and hugely respects "nanashi" who she could not surpass despite her efforts in analyzing his playstyle and perfecting her defense techniques. She later becomes the student council president of their school.

;{{Nihongo|Minami Nanami|七海 みなみ|Nanami Minami}}

:{{Voiced by|Ikumi Hasegawa|Christina Kelly}}

:Nicknamed "Mimimi" by her friends and "Minmi" by Tama, she is an energetic, mischievous and popular classmate of Tomozaki who is in the track and field club with Hinami. While maintaining a cheerful demeanor, she has insecurities about herself and her personality that gives in easily to not ruin the mood. Mimimi has been persistent in pestering the lonely Tama into being her friend, and thus eventually established a close friendship with her. Despite her goofy appearance, she also excels at both studies and sports, yet is unable to dethrone Hinami, who perpetually holds first place. She ran against Hinami in the student council election but lost.

;{{Nihongo|Fūka Kikuchi|菊池 風香|Kikuchi Fūka}}

:{{Voiced by|Ai Kayano|Natalie Hoover}}

:Fūka is a reserved and book-loving classmate of Tomozaki who often spends time at the library. She initially took interest in Tomozaki under the misunderstanding that they both share an interest in the same author, whereas Tomozaki only used those books as a cover while doing strategic reviews on Attack Families in the library. Tomozaki comes forward and admits the misunderstanding, and despite that still resolves to try to read and understand the books Fūka loves, as they develop a friendship on it. Hinami initially identifies Fūka as the best prospect for Tomozaki to capture as a girlfriend, and has created multiple situations in order for Tomozaki to confess to clear his goal. She and Tomozaki end up dating.

;{{Nihongo|Hanabi Natsubayashi|夏林 花火|Natsubayashi Hanabi}}

:{{Voiced by|Ryōko Maekawa|Amber Connor}}

:Nicknamed "Tama" by her friends, she is a blunt and unsociable classmate of Tomozaki. Tama is especially close to Mimimi as Mimimi was the first to try and break through her barriers and befriend her, and they hold each other dear. Her blunt nature often leaves her disliked and, once, got her into trouble as she openly condemned Erika's actions of harassment and bullying, thus making her the target of bullying herself. As she suffers from bullying, Tomozaki, Mizusawa, Takei and Fūka, among others, decided to step in to help her develop social skills.

;{{Nihongo|Yuzu Izumi|泉 優鈴|Izumi Yuzu}}

:{{Voiced by|Nene Hieda|Kate Bristol}}

:Izumi is a social and empathetic classmate of Tomozaki who is a part of Erika's clique. As someone who dislikes conflict, she is often unwilling to stand up to Erika's unreasonable actions. Izumi was Tomozaki's first target to befriend to grow his interpersonal skills as she sits beside him in class. Izumi is in love with Nakamura, and has enlisted Tomozaki's help to teach her how to play Attack Families in order to become Nakamura's practice partner.

;{{Nihongo|Takahiro Mizusawa|水沢 孝弘|Mizusawa Takahiro}}

:{{Voiced by|Nobunaga Shimazaki|Stephen Fu}}

:Mizusawa is a popular, gregarious and good-looking classmate of Tomozaki who is a part of Nakamura's clique, as is often considered as the smartest and most level-headed member of the group. He often attracts the attention of girls and is an extremely smooth talker, as he is Tomozaki's role model on the way he speaks.

;{{Nihongo|Shūji Nakamura|中村 修二|Nakamura Shūji}}

:{{Voiced by|Nobuhiko Okamoto|Chris Hackney}}

:Nakamura is a domineering classmate of Tomozaki, who is the de facto leader of his own clique. He is overly competitive and petty when he loses, as shown when he loses to Tomozaki on Attack Families, dismissing his loss as a stroke of bad luck while practicing hard in order to win in a revenge match. He eventually accepts Tomozaki as part of his clique after acknowledging his strengths.

;{{Nihongo|Takei|竹井}}

:{{Voiced by|Shuntarō Mizuno|Matt Shipman}}

:Takei is a cheerful and airheaded classmate of Tomozaki, who is often the mood maker of Nakamura's clique. Considered as the densest member of the clique, he is often excluded from strategic meetings such as when they were planning a camping trip to get Nakamura and Izumi together. He loves to take the center of attention as he often volunteers to take class positions, and often entertains others with his spontaneous acts.

| ShortSummary = Tomozaki is tasked with talking to three girls he has never conversed with before while wearing a mask. The first girl is the one sitting next to him in homeroom Yuki Izumi, and he asks her for a tissue. He also speaks with the girl behind her, Fūka Kikuchi. Next, he has an awkward conversation with Minami "Mimimi" Nanami in his home economics class, drawing the attention of her friend Hanabi "Tama" Natsubayashi and Tomozaki's gaming buddy Shūji Nakamura. Nakamura picks on Tomozaki, but Hinami intervenes and teases him in return. After school, Hinami lets Tomozaki know that Nakamura holds a grudge against him for losing to him in Attack Families. The next day, Tomozaki takes the mask off and is tasked with improving his posture and having a conversation with Mimimi after school. The two have a much more normal conversation while heading home from school. The next day, Hinami praises Tomozaki for his improved conversational skills and gives him some flash cards and a pocket recorder to help him continue to improving them. Hinami then assigns Tomozaki to spend the next day on a date with her.

| ShortSummary = After meeting up, Hinami takes Tomozaki to the mall in order to teach him how to change his appearance. The two shop at an apparel store, and Tomozaki's communication is still awkward when he asks the salesman for the mannequin rather than trying out the clothes on it. The two then have lunch and run into Fūka, who works as a part-time waitress. On the following Monday, Hinami tasks Tomozaki with talking to Izumi at least twice a day for the week, as well as to go on a date with another girl. During the week, Tomozaki has brief and awkward conversations with Izumi, struggling to come up with things to talk about. At the end of the week having barely fulfilled the quota, Tomozaki visits the library and is approached by Fūka, who asks Tomozaki to read a novel she is writing, and Hinami suggests that Tomozaki dates her, though Tomozaki is hesitant for being insincere. After leaving the school, Tomozaki meets up with Izumi, who asks him to teach her how to play Attack Families.

| ShortSummary = Izumi brings Tomozaki to her house to have him teach how to play Attack Families due to her crush Nakamura spending more of his time playing the game. Afterwards, Hinami gives Tomozaki a pair of tickets for a movie preview screening to ask Fūka out on a date. On the following school day, Tomozaki converses with Fūka in the library, but does not ask her to go to the movies. As Tomozaki is about to leave school for the day, Nakamura's clique forces Tomozaki to stay and play Attack Families against a vengeful Nakamura with Hinami, Izumi, and a clique led by Erika Konno watching. Tomozaki and Nakamura play several rounds with Tomozaki winning every time. Nakamura's losing streak causes Erika to criticize Nakamura for wasting his effort in the game, but Tomozaki stands up for him telling Erika to not mock somebody else's effort when she did not put in any of her own. Sometime later, Tomozaki asks Hinami to see the movie together and she agrees to do so, albeit a different movie due to scheduling conflicts.

| ShortSummary = With Nakamura's birthday coming up, Tomozaki asks Izumi to go shopping for a present. Hinami and Nakamura's friend Takahiro Mizusawa tag along on the shopping trip to the mall. While at the mall, Tomozaki is tasked by Hinami with making two successful group suggestions, which he is struggling to do. Mizusawa brings the group a store where he applies a hair salon product on Tomozaki's hair to improve his appearance, while Izumi buys her present for Nakamura. Tomozaki then buys his present from an electronics store. The group has a meal at a pizzeria suggested by Mizusawa before going home. The next day, Hinami criticizes Tomozaki for making only one group suggestion and not putting much thought into it, while lecturing him about how to make a successful suggestion, which is to make something appear good even if it is not, like the pizza. In homeroom, Hinami and Mimimi decide to run for student council president.

| ShortSummary = Dejected by Hinami's criticism, Tomozaki goes back to his old ways. With his sister noticing how much he has regressed, she convinces him to reply to the text messages he has been receiving, among them being a date request from Fūka he received two days ago. He accepts her request and goes on a date, and much like the previous date, there is no confession, though he reveals to her that he has been taking lessons on how to improve his life and is cheered up by her approval. Sometime later, Tomozaki asks Hinami to meet him at the place they first met as nanashi and NO NAME. There, he tells her that while he agrees with her original assertion that one cannot properly judge a game without playing it, he defies her cynicism with his own belief that the only way to really win is to find what you want in life, and challenges her to learn from him how to do that. Intrigued, Hinami accepts and agrees to continue tutoring Tomozaki. His next mission is to get a part-time job, and he works as a waiter at a karaoke parlor that Mizusawa works at.
