Kasumi Kishimoto
The main female character in the series. She helps her aunt maintain the boardinghouse in which the four boys stay, helping to cook and clean for them. She has a boyfriend in the States, Katsuhiko Muraki, whom she often thinks of, but she finds herself attracted to Yuusaku Takasugi, one of the boarders.
Yuusaku Takasugi
The main male character. He is one of the four boys boarding at Kasumi's aunt's boardinghouse, and is an expert at cheering others on. He has a helpful, friendly attitude, which prompted him to first recruit for, then join the Myoujou High baseball team. He has feelings for Kasumi Kishimoto, and is the initial object of affection for Keiko Seki too.
Shin Mikimoto
The resident long-haired pervert, playboy and show-off at the boardinghouse. He is also a talented sportsman, and joined the baseball and tennis teams to be closer to Keiko Seki, whom he likes. He is forever on the lookout for cute girls and peeping opportunities.
Takashi Ariyama
The big, food-loving boy at Kasumi's aunt's boardinghouse. He initially joined the soccer team as a goalkeeper, but was bribed with promises of food into joining the baseball team as a catcher. Friendly and kind to all, his qualities are not often remarkable, but one person does notice them eventually.
Keiko Seki
A fellow student in the same year at Myoujou High, whom Shin first introduces to Yuusaku and Ariyama. She is the younger sister of Myoujou High's baseball ace pitcher, Masato Seki, and joins the baseball team as a manager as a result of Yuusaku's persuasion. A very shy and gentle girl, she has a crush on Yuusaku, and is constantly pursued by Shin.
Masato Seki
Myoujou High's ace pitcher, he is senior to the others, and the older brother of Keiko. He is impressed by Yuusaku's determination to cheer for the team, and asks him to recruit stronger members for the baseball team in order to have a chance to go to the Nationals at Koshien.
Katsuhiko Muraki
Kasumi's boyfriend, he was studying in the States during the early parts of the series, but eventually returns halfway through. A strong, talented man, he seems to be Kasumi's ideal. But he views the growing relationship between Kasumi and Yuusaku with care, and realises that there might be more to it than both of them realise.
Makoto Aito
The fourth boy at the boardinghouse, he is rarely seen and usually doesn't hang around with the others. Many times people forget about his presence, and are scared when he suddenly appears. He also has very thick glasses, and studies a lot.
Aunt Chigusa
A widow of two years, she owns the house in which Kasumi and the boys stay in. She has a tendency to be easily flattered and a weakness for handsome men, but other than that is rarely seen.
Taisuke
Taisuke is a stray cat that Yuusaku found at the beginning of the series, and adopted. He is jointly taken care of by Yuusaku and Kasumi, and sometimes causes shared romantic moments as a result.
