Girls and their partners
The story is set in modern Japan. The Hare-onna use weather-linked magic, and the Kumorin are their supernatural partners. The official launch website features these three pairs; this is not the complete roster.
| Hare-onna | Kumorin partner |
|---|---|
| 晴渡ひまわり Himawari | 洗井ぽん Pon |
| 天野原ユーリ Yuri | 織部コン Kon |
| 篠月イズ Izu | 夢川チュチュ Chuchu |
The Japanese names identify the official characters. The short Latin-script names above are reading aids, not announced English localization names.

Outfits and characters are different questions
Character identity alone does not describe a whole battle setup. Haregi are the magical outfits associated with powers and progression, and clothing can be unavailable while washing. Read the outfit overview alongside character introductions.
No complete rarity list, recruitment table or comparative character statistics have been published here. A strength tier list would be premature.
Watch the introductions
The official program introduces Himawari at about 48:41, Pon at 54:09, and continues with the other featured characters. The video guide links directly to these sections and the animated teaser.
