Shiori Sakurazaka

Shiori Sakurazaka is a third-year student at Seishun Academy and the childhood friend of main character Jiro Yakuin, who has long harbored secret feelings for her. During the school's 'Marriage Practice' event, she unexpectedly finds herself paired with the widely admired Minami Tenjin. Despite her pure appearance, warm personality, and the popularity she enjoys among peers, past experiences have left her guarded around the opposite sex. Though she has quietly cherished feelings for Jiro over the years, shyness and the fear of disrupting their existing bond have kept her from confessing — yet as the practice unfolds, she gradually finds the resolve to fight for the love she holds dear.
