Characters

Kokonotsu Shikada (鹿田 ココノツ, Shikada Kokonotsu)
Voiced by: Atsushi Abe (Japanese); Todd Haberkorn (English)
The main protagonist. Kokonotsu and his father Yō live in a countryside town where they run a small sweets store. He aspires to be a manga artist, an ambition that puts him at odds with his father who wants him to inherit the store which has been run by the family for eight generations. He constantly finds himself manning the cash register, more often than not a result of his father's trickery. After Hotaru's arrival, he also has to put up with her antics as well. He is nicknamed "Kokonatsu" ("coconuts") by his friends, while his real name "Kokonotsu" is a pun of Japanese counter word for "nine".
Hotaru Shidare (枝垂 ほたる, Shidare Hotaru)
Voiced by: Ayana Taketatsu (Japanese); Tabitha Ray (English)
An eccentric girl who is very passionate about sweets and snacks. Her father owns a famous snacks company and she came to Shikada store to recruit Yō. As Yō will not leave as long as Kokonotsu is unwilling to succeed him as Shikada storekeeper, she quickly strikes a deal with him: she will convince Kokonotsu to take over the store in return for his employment. From then on she tries to persuade Kokonotsu using many different ways such as games, stories, and riddles.
Saya Endō (遠藤 サヤ, Endō Saya)
Voiced by: Manami Numakura (Japanese); Sara Ragsdale (English)
Kokonotsu's classmate and childhood friend who runs a nearby cafe. She has a longstanding crush on Kokonotsu. At first alarmed by Hotaru's presence, she quickly befriends her for their goals are aligned: Hotaru wishes Kokonotsu to run the store while she wants him to keep staying in town. Saya has a hidden talent of toy mastery. At one point she defeats well prepared Hotaru at a Menko game, an event that leads Hotaru to start addressing her with suffix shi (), an antiquated designation used by disciples to their masters.
She is the younger twin sister of Tō.
Tō Endō (遠藤 豆, Endō Tō)
Voiced by: Tatsuhisa Suzuki (Japanese); Justin Pate (English)
Older twin brother of Saya and a good friend of Kokonotsu. A laid back person who usually wears Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses. He and Saya run a cafe named "Cafe Endō".
Yō Shikada (鹿田 ヨウ, Shikada Yō)
Voiced by: Keiji Fujiwara (Japanese); Jeremy Inman (English)
Kokonotsu's father as well as the current owner of Shikada store. He is desperate to make his son 9th head of the shop so that his legacy will continue. He agrees to Hotaru's bargain that if she can convince his son to be the next head of his shop, he would become part of Hotaru's company. His first name "Yō" is the Kun'yomi method of pronouncing the kanji for eight ().
