A mix of female and male students. Everyone says Japanese Empire and Guest look like a perfect match. Aya is generally disliked because she picks fights with or brags to the female students. The female students are forced to listen to Aya's bragging every day. Example: "Hey, hey, I held hands with Japanese Empire-kun again today! W-what do you think...?" The male students are split between Team Aya and Team Guest.
