Description
Yuuichi Aizawa is a 17-year-old high school student returning to a northern Japanese town after a seven-year absence, moving in with his aunt Akiko Minase and cousin Nayuki Minase. Though he visited frequently as a child, significant memory loss obscures his past experiences there, memories that slowly resurface through encounters with people he once knew.
He maintains a friendly, easygoing demeanor but frequently engages in teasing the female characters around him, the intensity varying with each individual. This teasing coexists with a selfless and patient nature, revealing a protective, older-brother-like soft side during critical moments. He harbors a fear of heights and expresses a dislike for sweets.
Initially oblivious to the supernatural elements present in the town, Yuuichi gradually becomes aware of these occurrences. His journey centers on forming deep connections with five female characters, each tied to unresolved issues from his forgotten past. He assists Mai Kawasumi in battling demons; provides companionship to Makoto Sawatari until her demise; indirectly prevents Shiori Misaka from suicide; helps Nayuki confront her mother's hospitalization while recalling Nayuki's childhood confession involving a snow bunny; and aids Ayu Tsukimiya in locating a precious lost item.
His forgotten past proves pivotal. Yuuichi met most of these girls during childhood visits but repressed the memories due to trauma, particularly surrounding Ayu Tsukimiya. It is later revealed that seven years prior, he witnessed Ayu fall from a tree while trying to retrieve an angel doll he had given her, an event that left her comatose. His subconscious avoidance of this painful memory contributed to his broader amnesia. Upon remembering, Yuuichi confronts profound guilt and grief, leading to a breakdown where he nearly succumbs to despair in a snowstorm before being rescued. He subsequently dedicates himself to Ayu’s bedside, awaiting her awakening.
His relationships evolve significantly throughout the story. While initially oblivious to Nayuki's longstanding romantic feelings, his bond with Ayu becomes the most central. Their childhood friendship rekindles upon his return, deepening into romance. By the narrative's conclusion, they are established as a couple following Ayu’s recovery.
