Plot

Main characters

Aoi Minase

Aoi Minase is the main protagonist of the visual novel. He was once a cycling member on his previous school, but unfortunately, an accident occurred which injured his legs. Aoi is a boy who has returned to his hometown of Kazegaura through an accident.

Through meeting Kotori, he begins getting back the passion he once had and pushes forward. His height is 174 cm.

Amane Mochizuki

An airhead yet genius senior to most of the main characters. She loves food so much and is the only flaw from her. Tall, gorgeous, and very stylish girl. When quiet, she is beautiful and seems kind. She is the sole member of Keifuu Academy’s Soaring Club before Aoi and his friends joined. She continues to enroll in school even after many years in order to complete the self-built glider for her best friend, Isuka. Although a genius, she can be quite clumsy. Her height is 162 cm, with the proportional sizes 92-59-86 cm.

Ageha Himegi

A fashionable, cheerful, beautiful young girl who has a playfully flirtatious air about her. As she is good with her hands, she belongs to the Robotics Club but soon joins the Soaring Club. She once had feelings Aoi, and despite being confessed to by Aoi, she rejected him. After five long years, they will meet again. Her height is 160 cm, with proportional sizes 90-57-87 cm.

Kotori Habane

A beautiful girl bound to a wheelchair. She is a slender girl with long, black hair and a tidy appearance but is strong willed and speaks with confidence. Also, a cry baby. Because she transferred to Keifuu Academy for the simple reason that she is unable to move her legs and is completely barrier free, she has no interests in classes which teach specialty fields. Because of this, she is completely cut off from her those around her. Her height is 158 cm with sizes 81-55–84 cm.

Asa Kazato

Asa is a girl with a bright and warm atmosphere. She is the twin sister of Yoru. She can be a little clumsy, and a bit of an airhead but even those traits are attractive. Asa, who can get along with anyone, helps others get along with each other as well. With Yoru, they provide their secret base as a garage for the glider. Her height is 150 cm along with proportional sizes 77-56-82 cm. Along with Yoru, they enter Keifuu Academy as first-years.

Yoru Kazato

Rather indifferent about others, and a bit of a nihilist. A cool personality, with her head up in the clouds. She tries not to get close to others but is emotionally attached to her twin sister Asa. Because she is a genius and does not like doing pointless things, she is rather pessimistic in regards to the Soaring Club. Her grandfather is the chairman of the school which Aoi and the others attend. Her height and proportional sizes are the same with her twin sister.
