Character

Miou Aida

合田 美桜

Miou is very demure as a teenager, making her presence small wherever she goes. Her shyness extends to romantic interactions, particularly with Haruki; she doesn't make any overt gestures of affection to him, but she does show her love passively, like waiting for him so they can walk home every day. Aside from being shy, she's also very fragile; she cries when she thinks that Haruki may like someone else and bursts into happy tears when Haruki returns after six years. Compared to her friends, Miou is a lot more self-criticizing. She recognizes that she was not forward with Haruki and does not like that she cannot muster up the courage to push their relationship forwards, but has come to terms with their initially doomed romance. She gains a more nostalgic perspective on the matter in adulthood. She's shy and isn't the type to stand out, but she's kindhearted and has a lot of friends. She doesn't talk to guys a lot with the exception of Haruki.
