Through physical contact with Keiji, her basic form became that of a girl. There are suspicions that "Isn't this form just Keiji's preference?" but the truth remains unclear. She can merge with machines and can even operate a Vaux. At first, she was very dependent on Keiji, but she is learning and becoming more independent. At the same time, a slightly cheeky side has emerged, but she is still quite a baby. She dislikes hot things and prefers cold ones. However, she has a different view when it comes to baths. Her emotions have begun to blossom, and she wishes to return home, but will that happen...? "I’ve decided, I’m going back home. But first, I want to eat this ice cream." ● Shino Akune (CV: Yukina Fujimori) An older sister figure who has known Keiji since childhood. Daughter of the bathhouse "Tatsumi-yu." She has a straightforward, caring personality and is skilled at making friends with anyone. Since she started taking care of Arne, she has settled into a motherly role. However, she doesn't seem to mind that role too much. Through caring for Arne, she has started to recall her past more often, and her feelings toward her childhood friend Keiji seem to be changing... Will the secrets and feelings she holds in her heart ever blossom? "Everyone treats me like a mom. But Keiji-kun... you don’t, right?" ● Gumi Kirishima (CV: Mao Tachibana) The same age as Keiji. A resident and poster girl of the bathhouse "Inui-yu." She has a lively personality and is extremely positive. She is said to be bad at serious matters, which is why she prefers going braless. She was an athlete in robot competitions and had the skills to compete in national tournaments. However, she suffered a serious injury in an accident during a tournament and is now receiving treatment and rehabilitation at her cousin's bathhouse, "Inui-yu." She works at the factory alongside Keiji as his assistant, trying to learn about robots. She is very close to Arne, like sisters, but her personality changes when she rides a robot, and during those times, Arne becomes cold towards her. She spends her days experimenting with Keiji to help return Arne home. She worries about him, who tends to push himself too hard, and feels the need to support him. "Make sure you remember that I’m here, okay? ...I mean it!" ● Lily Lucarsha Chamoni (CV: Mia Naruse) A boisterous space pirate. She came in a stealth whale-shaped spaceship targeting Arne. However, due to unfortunate circumstances, she now spends her days working at a maid café to earn some cash. The maid outfit is the official attire of the Lily clan as pirates. She takes pride in being both a pirate and a maid. By the way, being the poster girl at the maid café is her recent boast. In reality, she is an excellent space pirate (rare metal hunter) and, upon encountering the coveted SS-rank rare metal Arne, she meticulously planned her approach before making a move. Will Lily succeed in acquiring Arne and fulfill her pirate ambitions? Aim to escape the world of liquid food! "Welcome, Earth masters! Please bring your valuables here!" ● Uni Mariette Panini (CV: Ryoko Tezuka) Lily's subordinate, a cool and sharp-tongued character. She hates troublesome situations but loves watching Lily fluster. As a support member, she leaves all the rough pirate work to Lily. She loves Japanese otaku culture. Particularly fond of obscure, niche books. Her taste in men is a bit unusual, as she generally has no interest in the real world. However, once she takes a liking to someone, she can be quite aggressive in her pursuit. She enjoys tinkering with machines and lovingly refers to the pirate ship's engine as "Minyon." If anyone harms her engine or her robot subordinates, she becomes furious. "I do not accept complaints about Lily, especially concerning her brain." ● Kanade Hioki (CV: Mari Harusaki) A close older sister figure who cares about Keiji. She is a counselor and often comes by to take care of him. Rumor has it that she only uses it as an excuse to drink with the townspeople. She is very touchy-feely and loves cute things, regardless of gender. She overly interacts with Keiji, observing Shino's jealousy, and finds joy in the youthful drama. She is bright, delicate, and a good listener. She loves alcohol and tries to drink at any opportunity. She is also a lonely person who enjoys lively gatherings. In both good and bad ways, she is an unsettled person. "I’m always on the side of cute things. Don’t worry, I’m not drunk yet." ● Keiji Osaki The protagonist of the story. 19 years old. He helps at his grandfather's factory related to work robots instead of going to university. He has a cheerful personality but a sharp tongue. He tries to remain calm as much as possible. Recently, influenced by Arne, he feels that his noisy daily life isn’t so bad. Having lost his parents at a young age, he feels indebted to Shino, who has always treated him well. Lately, he has been worried about whether he is overburdening Arne, whom he has left in her care. When he looks at Arne, he is reminded of a girl from his memories. Why can’t he recall her identity, even though he is curious about it...? "My promise is to return Arne to her home."
