[edit]Main characters

Hōtarō Oreki (折木 奉太郎 Oreki Hōtarō^?)

Voiced by: Yūichi Nakamura

A less-than-energetic boy who joins the Classic Literature Club at the request of his older sister, Tomoe Oreki, to stop it being abolished. Though he doesn't particularly like to do anything that involves effort, if given something to think about, he will see it through until it is solved and then manages to make brilliantly logical deductions. His relation towards Eru is, as he quotes, "someone he can't ignore." It is shown that he finds Eru attractive, and that he may have developed feelings for her.

Eru Chitanda (千反田 える Chitanda Eru^?)

Voiced by: Satomi Satō

A curious girl who is a member of the Classic Literature Club. She is polite and kind but simultaneously ditzy and energetic. She also comes from a wealthy family of farmers. Whenever a mystery is brought to her, she won't be able to stop thinking about it until it is solved, and usually calls for Oreki to solve it. She holds great admiration for Oreki, often praising him for his talent in solving mysteries. It is later hinted that she may harbor feelings for Oreki.

Satoshi Fukube (福部 里志 Fukube Satoshi^?)

Voiced by: Daisuke Sakaguchi

Hōtarō's classmate who joins the Classic Literature Club with him. He has an impressive memory that he calls his "database", and can almost always be seen smiling. While being the most comical character of the four, he has also been shown to be secretly jealous towards Oreki for his analyzing abilities. He calls Mayaka Ibara by her first name, which indicates the two are close. Later on Satoshi reveals that he does have feelings for Mayaka but he doesn't want to become "obsessed" with her.

Mayaka Ibara (伊原 摩耶花 Ibara Mayaka^?)

Voiced by: Ai Kayano

The fourth member of the Classic Literature Club; joined after the other three. She and the boys were from same middle school. She doesn't get along with Hōtarō, as they were called 'Kaburaya Middle's best couple'. Mayaka has romantic feelings towards Satoshi (who has always treated her in a frivolous way). She refers to Satoshi as Fuku-chan.
