Plot

Nao Takanashi loves her brother Shūsuke despite the incest taboo. Nao thinks that Shūsuke is her blood relative, but in fact she is an adopted daughter, whose parents already died. After Nao learns the fact, she wants to normally fall in love with Shūsuke because siblings by adoption can marry under the family law in Japan. However, she finds herself competing with Shūsuke's childhood friend, Iroha Tsuchiura, and his class president and yaoi lover, Mayuka Kondō.

Main

Shūsuke Takanashi (高梨 修輔, Takanashi Shūsuke)
Voiced by: Toshiyuki Toyonaga / Hiromi Igarashi (Child)The title character of the story is the son of the Takanashi family. He is rather perverted, owns a large number of porn magazines and is always looking for panty shot opportunities. Recently he has started using the term "not betraying Nao" implying he loves her, or at least wishes to have her see him as a good older brother. He does admit to having some romantic interest in Nao. He is not aware of Nao's knowledge of either the truth about their relationship or the fact she knows about all his dirty habits. He is a heavy sleeper and Nao has to wake him up for school, not that she minds because it allows her the opportunity to do things she normally wouldn't if he was awake, in short this is when she shows her true self.
Nao Takanashi (高梨 奈緒, Takanashi Nao)
Voiced by: Eri KitamuraNao is the adopted daughter of the Takanashi family and secretly loves her foster brother Shūsuke, going as far as to know everything about him to an obsessive degree. Ten years ago, she was in a car accident which killed her parents and caused her to lose her memory, and she has only recently learned the truth. She goes to various lengths to try to attract Shūsuke attention including throwing out his non-incest porn. She becomes particularly annoyed with other girls who try to get close to him. Her real name is never mentioned and her current name is the same as her deceased biological mother.
Iroha Tsuchiura (土浦 彩葉, Tsuchiura Iroha)
Voiced by: Marina InoueIroha is Shūsuke's childhood friend from before Nao's adoption. Having played 'doctor' with him a lot as a child (which was Shūsuke's excuse to see her naked), she claims to be Shūsuke's lover and constantly makes advances towards him. She is also something of a stalker, watching him in his house through a telescope and using night vision goggles to stalk him. She is even called a "Genuine Stalker" due to her very detailed reports of Shūsuke's late night actions and activities. She is in constant competition with Nao over Shūsuke's affections, though they occasionally work together when someone else catches his eye. Oddly, despite the fact she has openly stated she is willing to have sex with Shūsuke, and even initiating the first move, he seems to not want this. It is hinted this may be due to his believing that his actions made her this way.
Mayuka Kondō (近藤 繭佳, Kondō Mayuka)
Voiced by: Kazusa AranamiShūsuke's classmate and class president, with a strong interest in Boy's Love magazines. When Shūsuke tears up one of her magazines by accident, she makes him her 'pet'. She forces him to purchase and review explicit BL magazines which she interprets as having a shared interest. Despite Shūsuke's belief that she may ask him to do something more perverted at some point, she treats him more as a boyfriend - making him bentos and coming to wake him up in time for school. Over time her feelings for Shūsuke increase because of his apparent acceptance of her BL magazines. She becomes attracted to Shūsuke's pink and sensitive nipples due to the fact she has never seen a naked man before, though despite him being her pet, she doesn't use this to her advantage. Although she confesses that she has feelings of wanting to dominate Shūsuke, he loses memory of the incident after being hit by a truck.

Others

Keiichirō Kishikawa (岸川啓一郎, Kishikawa Keiichirō), Takumi Yamashiro (山代拓実, Yamashiro Takumi) and Daigo Kurosaki (黒崎大吾, Kurosaki Daigo)

Explorers (AGE探検隊, All Genre Ero Tankentai), they are Shūsuke's friends who together constantly seek out and share erotic materials of all kinds. In the anime, it is implied that Keiichirō may have homosexual feelings towards Shūsuke, though this is only his delusion due to the trauma he has developed by being forced to read BL books.
Shūji Takanashi (高梨 修司, Takanashi Shūji)
Voiced by: Hideki OgiharaShūji is Shūsuke's father from whom he seems to have inherited his perverted nature. He took Nanaka to a porn movie on their first date and later attempts to 'confiscate' one of his son's magazines.

Rin Yatagai (谷田貝 凛, Yatagai Rin)
