Minato Narumiya

Minato Narumiya is the protagonist of the series. He is a first-year at Kazemai High School where he is a member of the kyudo club.

Minato is a reserved and withdrawn person, which resulted from after his accident in sixth grade and his target panic incident at his last middle school tournament. He is serious and responsible, always doing his chores and cleaning the school kyudojo proactively. His seriousness often causes him to get flustered by more cheerful individuals like Nanao and Ryouhei.

Despite seeming calm and indifferent, Minato has a deep passion for kyudo and is extremely loyal to his friends. He is earnest about the things he wants to do, such as improving at kyudo. Ryouhei has noted that he seemed like a "wild child" as he doesn't mind running on snow-covered roads or doesn’t get a cold when he was wading through a cold river. He has a sarcastic side to him when it comes to dealing with more eccentric people, such as Masaki. He is also prone to having an overactive imagination and believing scary stories.

Minato has a love for fluffy animals, especially Kuma (Seiya's dog) and Who (Masaki's owl).
