Now a second-year student in high school, Junichi is wary of love because of his past and dislikes celebrating Christmas. However this Christmas, his encounter with one of six girls from his school, Haruka Morishima, Kaoru Tanamachi, Sae Nakata, Ai Nanasaki, Rihoko Sakurai, or Tsukasa Ayatsuji will finally open up his heart to love again.

Characters

Main characters

Junichi Tachibana (橘純一 Tachibana Jun'ichi)
: Voiced by: Tomoaki Maeno; / Momoko Saitō (Childhood); The lead male protagonist of the story, and class 2A student. He has a hard time opening up to others due to a trauma two years ago when his date stood him up on Christmas Eve which left him heart broken. He also fears heights, as he feels uncomfortable when riding elevators. He proves that he can do whatever it takes for any one of the 6 lead females in these series. He is good in school, yet he oversleeps frequently before class time, and is always woken up by his sister Miya before school starts.

Haruka Morishima (森島はるか Morishima Haruka)
: Voiced by: Shizuka Itō; A very popular girl in her final year, who has many fans at school. She can be described as a fickle and insecure girl with a liking for cute things, especially puppies. Her best friend is Hibiki Tsukahara and she has a younger brother named Satoshi. She is a quarter British from her mother, whose family's surname is Lovely (thus Haruka's middle name). Possibly as a nod to her heritage, she frequently mixes English phrases into her speech.

Kaoru Tanamachi (棚町薫 Tanamachi Kaoru)
: Voiced by: Rina Satō; One of Junichi's childhood friends and class 2A classmate, she is often seen with his other friend Masayoshi. She is unpredictable as she would punch Junichi anytime. She works part-time at a family restaurant to support her single mother, who later dates another man.

Sae Nakata (中多紗江 Nakata Sae)
: Voiced by: Hiromi Konno; A friend and classmate of Miya's. Having studied at an all-girls school for most of her life, Sae is incredibly shy around men. Because of that, she has a soft, quiet voice. Though generally reserved, she shows a child-like enthusiasm for the Inago Mask superheroes. Her story arc in the anime is unique in that the characters occasionally break the fourth wall.

: Voiced by: Yukana; A friend and classmate of Miya's. She is part of their school's girl swimming team. She has a younger brother named Ikuo and possesses a cool, calm disposition.

: Voiced by: Kaori Nazuka; Class 2A's class representative, who is both a hard worker and a person who is willing to take on any task that no one else will. While she acts kind and friendly, it is actually a facade that secretly hides the real her, who is manipulative and cunning.

Maya Takahashi (高橋麻耶 Takahashi Maya^?): Voiced by: Risa Hayamizu; Class 2A's homeroom teacher. Usually a serious teacher, she can easily get drunk when she drinks sake. She actually has a mini route within Ai's route. The 2nd Amagami Chotto Omake Gekijou (アマガミちょっとおまけ劇場^?) fan disc expand on this mini-route, making her a winnable heroine.
