Characters
Girlfriend (彼女, Kanojo)
Voiced by: Shizuka Itō
A high school girl who dwarfs her boyfriend in terms of height. She comes to his apartment after school when she's not busy with club activities. She is also fairly aggressive when it comes to her boyfriend and usually kicks at him whenever she's in a bad mood or wronged, but is exceptionally meek when it comes to actual romancing like hugging and kissing. She is also the postergirl for the series. She enjoys fighting games the most.
Boyfriend (彼氏, Kareshi)
Voiced by: Takuma Terashima
A high school boy whose girlfriend dwarfs him by quite a bit. He participates in no after school activities and the majority of his interactions with Kanojo are at his place. Much like Kanojo he is quite bashful himself when it comes to the romantic parts of their relationship.
