Momodani Rika♀

[A transfer student who is not good with boys]
A transfer student who was transferred to the class next to Ryuji.

She is not good at talking and has difficulty communicating with others, and since she just transferred to the school, she is not used to being in the class and is often alone.

Also, since there were only girls at her previous school, she is not used to being in a classroom with boys, and when a man approaches her at close range, she becomes frightened and stiffens up and cannot speak.

However, she is fine with people of a certain age or older, such as her father or teachers in her original environment, or children below a certain age who do not give off a masculine vibe.

At first, she was frightened of Ryuji, but as classmates gradually distance themselves from her as they feel a wall between her and Rika, she no longer feels any resistance to Ryuji's large-mindedness and adult-like nature as he approaches her without hesitation, and instead she becomes fond of him.
