I love Momo. She's a lot like me in a lot of ways. But what more, she's strong and possesses many qualities I lack :( She's in her first year of highschool which translates to about Grade 10 in the North American system or so I've been told. She has apparently has "O" type blood, why that's important I don't know, but I thought I would throw that in there anyway ^_^ Momo has a great fashion taste, and is really fashionable. She has a strong personaltiy. She's an average student but tries in school. She loves to swim, and used to be on the swim team. She stopped swimming because it makes her tan more easily (and she wants to stay paler for Toji).
I love how much Momo cares. She cares about people and it shows in her actions. I love how much she loves Toji. To care for someone like the way she does for Toji, it's amazing. She also shows a lot of compassion, even to dirty little Sae, when she doesn't deserve it at all.
Sae.... where do I begin? Sae is the antagonist in the story... the force against which our hero must struggle and she's definitely that... except she's not a force, but more like a tornedo... or hurricane, uprooting things, and destroying everything in her path for no other purpose than because they were there. Sae is evil... I don't care what people say... a person doesn't always have some good in them... and Sae is one of those people. I swear that girl is pure evil. Most of the time I am soooo angry at that ... that "thing" (I refuse to dignify her as a girl at this point) that I could rip my own hair out. That girl makes me sooooo frustrated. However I think it was brilliant on the part of Miwa Ueda put her in. For the following reasons: First of all, she deviates from the usual Manga bad guys. I mean she's just as evil as Nakago from Fushigi Yuugi or Malachite from Sailor Moon. And secondly because people like Sae actually exsist in our world and what Miwa is doing is raising awareness that these people exist. And they do, there is a Sae in every neighbourhood, we need to identify these people and "de-fang" them. Make sure their claws don't get into anything else. She's also very real. That realism is really important for me.
I really really really dislike that girl....
Toji, Toji, Toji. Poor simple minded Toji. I personally don't see what Momo see's in the guy. I mean sure he has his strong points but Kiley is so much better... (and no I'm not being biased, just because I like Kiley better...) As you can see, Toji's first name is rather hard to pronounce not to mention loooooong, and hence people call him only Toji. We aren't told how popular he is at school but he is definitely quite popular but not only that, the guys seem to respect him, which is important. I like Toji's quite strength. He has a certain strength about him. And his simple-ness is kinda cute. He's so innocent. He thinks everyone is a good person. What I hate about him is he takes what people say at face value and in life you can't do that. Toji has to toughen up a bit and open his eyes.
And plus he's kinda cute ^_^
KILEY.... I LOVE KILEY.... I would be more than willing to bear Kiley children and live happily ever after with him... sigh... if only :) Kiley is the best. He's dependable, strong and confident. But what's best is he's really laid-back but he can still be serious, when he needs to be. He's just the best. Momo should soooooooooo go out with him instead. He's always there for you, and he listens... the two things that women have been banging on the doors to have. And he gives them freely. Did I mention I love Kiley? Kiley is the most popular boy in school and has the body and face of a model. All the girls love him, and let's face it... he loves them. Kiley has a little bad habit of as some people call it, trying to get in a girl's pants. Although the manga does not say exactly if Kiley does actually try to "score" with every girl or even if he has. I think he's all talk.
I love his hair.... drool... I love Kiley... I just had to pu the picture below, it's just so "Kiley". It's like essence of Kiley... hmmm that doesn't sound that bad... essence of Kiley.... I would all for it ;)

Momo
Adachi 
What
I didn't like about Momo is how she tries to change herself to please
others... not others actually but Toji. She lacks self-confidence
when it comes to Toji, so she feels she has to change herself. But
I think she should realize that if Toji likes her, it should be
for ALL of her... the whole package and if he doesn't, that it's
his loss. However Momo is 16 at the time of the story and I can
think of silly things me and my friends have done to be "cool".
So I wouldn't blame her that much ^_^
Sae
Sasaki / Sae Kashiwagi 
Sae's
EVIL.... there's nothing more to say... EVIL... (grumbles). Sae
is manipulative, spiteful, scheming little Bit*h. (Excuse the language).
Sae wants whatever other people want... in this very specific case,
what Momo wants. She MUST be the center of attention and people
must LOVE and ADORE her. And how does she go about accomplishing
that? Making our Momo's life miserable. I've met a lot of Sae's
in my life and they're all the same. They choose the one person
to ofset them. Someone who in contrast will make them look better.
Sae figures she looks good, but she looks even better beside Momo,
because you can see the vast difference between them, personality
wise and in physical appearance. 
I
do like it though when they draw Sae in her deformed "Cat"
face than her normal one. It makes for a very entertanining Manga.
I like deformed faces, that's what makes Manga's special and allows
the artist to express a lot of emotion, not achieved by artists
in North America. But that's all Sae gets... hmph!
Tojigamori
Kazuya (Toji)
Toji
is a really quiet, shy type guy which is kinda cute sometimes but
at other times it makes you so angry... But he seems to genuinely
like Momo. He grows on you. And I guess his innocence is a bit refreshing,
when today all the guys are horny and materialistic. So in that
sense, Toji's great... he has good old fashion values... that's
hard to come by these days...
Kiley
Okayasu / Kairi Okayasu 
He
definitely likes Momo. Momo thinks it's because Kiley wants to get
in her pants and that he's pervert and at first it does come off
that way, but I think he really does care for her. Why else is he
always around? He always seems to be around... especially when Momo
needs him. He saved her 2 times... major brownie points and Kiley
was Momo's first kiss. He's also her shining knight in armor as
he attempts to come to her rescue about every 2nd manga novel. I
love Kiley. He has such a good sense of humor and he makes it easy
for you to be around him. And he's smart and he knows people. He's
the only one who sees through Sae. I have lots of respect for him
for how well he recognized Sae for what she is and then helped expose
her.
