In Love on Leave, you can move freely around the map of the countryside. Fish, tend the field, and enjoy all the uniquely rural fun available to you. Caught fish and harvested vegetables can be used to fulfill certain Favors, but they are also potential gifts for the sisters. Keep an eye out for any number of lost items scattered around the map as well! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t forget to take in the beauty around you as you explore to collect them all. Pull your rod up at just the right time and you may catch something amazing out on the waters! What awaits below the surface changes depending on your bait and location!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25a0 Amane Amakusa \u2013 CV: Ayaka Suwa<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

– \u201cI\u2019ve had large breasts for a long time now\u2026 I stand out in school as well\u2026 I would always feel people staring at me\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The middle child of the Amakusa family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A nurse working at the town clinic, she is the same age as the protagonist, Akito.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amane and Akito got along and often played together when they were children, but she seems repulsed by him since their reunion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though recognized for her capability at karate, she doesn’t have time to dedicate to it since entering the workforce. She now redirects her need to exercise toward running in the mountains nearby. While she has a penchant for sports, she’s not great at fishing despite her persistent efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u25a0 Hibiki Amakusa \u2013 CV: Nichika Omori<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

– \u201cI heard that he\u2019s a master masseur. I was hoping to try his massage services.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The youngest of the Amakusa sisters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently a student at the local community college, Hibiki looked up to Akito like a real brother when they were kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though she can be sloppy and immature, Hibiki is also shrewd and calculating, often weighing the benefits of the choices presented to her. She is most proactive and energized when things she cares about are involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She is a streamer (to a small audience) with dreams of moving to Tokyo for a big city life though she’s unable to broach that topic with her eldest sister Kanami.<\/p>\n\n\n

– \u201cThe doctor also told me to stop headbanging\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The eldest of the Amakusa sisters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She used to dote on Akito like a younger brother when they were children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kanami is the pillar of their family, even acting as a mother for her younger sisters Amane and Hibiki in the years since they lost their parents. She is also the manager of Metropolis, the cafe which their parents left behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While she has her spacey moments, she’s usually very reliable. Since taking on the role of “mother” at home, even her free time is filled with chores like cleaning. The fact that she has no proper hobbies is a worry of hers.<\/p>\n\n\n
