All Bachelorettes You Can Romance
Iroha – The Cheerful Teahouse Owner
She runs a teahouse in Spring Village and basically carries the whole town’s morale. She’s kind, hardworking, and wants to bring the village back to life.
Ulalaka – The Peaceful Goddess of Spring
A literal goddess of joy who wants to make the world a better place. Calm, sweet, and pretty much made for anyone looking for a gentle and wholesome partner.
Hina – The Mysterious Archaeologist
She’s half-fox and full of emotional depth. Hina works alongside Mauro and hides a lot of feelings under her mission-driven personality. Just try not to hurt her... she’s fragile underneath.
Matsuri – The God of Summer and Swords
High energy, loves action, solves problems by hitting them. She’s bold, hot-headed, and brings summer energy to every scene.
Kanata – The God of Light and the Heavens
She takes her god duties seriously but has a surprisingly imaginative side if you break through the serious front. Romantic interest for anyone who wants brains and power.
Clarice – The Deadly Beauty
She’s a mysterious soldier leading a hidden group in Azuma. Strong, blunt, and carries herself like someone used to war zones more than dates.
Pilika – The Silent Huntress (Seasons of Love DLC)
Best hunter in the game. Quiet, serious, and deeply respectful of nature. Available only with the DLC, so she’s also hard to get... literally.
Kaguya – The Wandering Hero
Subaru’s childhood friend and a justice-seeker from the north. Loves animals and hates evil, so don’t even try flirting if your character’s a jerk.
All Bachelors You Can Romance
Murasame – The Stoic Samurai
Focused on becoming the best swordsman alive. Calm, distant, but full of hidden layers. Definitely the “train alone in the rain” type.
Mauro – The Emotional Adventurer
A traveling treasure hunter who’s more likely to cry over sunsets than sword fights. Super soft, very loyal, and full of heart.
Kai – The Oni God of the Underworld
Intimidating leader who hides his face behind a mask. Powerful, complicated, and not exactly friendly at first... but there’s honor underneath.
Kurama – The Calm God of Autumn and Wind
He’s all brains and strategy, and somehow still easy to talk to. He also plays board games, so there’s that.
Fubuki – The Half-Beast God of Winter and Water
Anxious but kind. Quietly powerful and hates hurting others. He’s one of the sweetest gods around, even if he doesn’t act like it.
Ikaruga – The Mystic Commander
Leads the Jingasa Corps with a calm but driven personality. Underneath his relaxed attitude is a serious fire to get things done.
Cuilang – The Soft-Spoken Puppet Master (Seasons of Love DLC)
Lives in Autumn Village, builds machines, and talks only when he has to. Helpful, quiet, and clearly hiding a heart of gold.
Subaru – The Laid-Back Sky Watcher
Doesn’t like fighting but won’t back down when it matters. Childhood friends with Kaguya and loyal to a fault. Chill, warm, and dependable.
Same-Gender Marriage Is Fully Supported

Everyone’s available, so pick who you like and build your bond.
