The story revolves around Haruki Nakano and his four sisters: Mutsuki, Yayoi, Uzuki, and Satsuki.

She takes care of the household cooking and chores. • Yayoi Nakano • Mikako Komatsu • Haruki's younger sister by a year. She is in her third-year of middle school. She has short brown hair. She is athletic and is often violent towards Haruki, calling him Baka-Eroki (stupid pervert).

She likes to tease and play pranks on Haruki. She is a third-year elementary school student. • Satsuki Nakano • Sayaka Horino • The quieter of Haruki's younger twin sisters.
