Summary

A Kiss Note is a powerful notebook that makes anyone who has their name written together instantly fall in love if they kiss each other regardless of any circumstances. This magical and very familiar item belongs to an angel named Guri whose job as cupid is to create couples. However, she accidentally writes down Seiji Aino, a regular high school student, and unless he kisses someone, Guri will die. She convinces Seiji to go kiss his crush, Akane Hiyama, the school's popular girl, who turns out to harbor even stronger feelings for him, bordering on obsessive and psychotic. Eventually. Akane and Seiji come together, but not before Guri decides that she likes Seiji as well. What seems awesome to most guys becomes hell for Seiji, who just wants a normal relationship with girls.

Characters

Guri (グリ)

Voiced by: Yoshino Aoyama (Japanese); Jad Saxton (English)

An Angel/Cupid. The literal child of God and the former Lord of Hell, Mavuro. Due to this, Guri has the natural tendency to "fall" easier than most angels. She often treats her duty as a Cupid like a joke, forming almost exclusively gay couples due to her love for male romance. However also due to this she goes over her quota for couples to be formed per month. Despite being a Cupid, she doesn't understand the concept of Love. In fact, the reason she is a cupid is that her father wanted her to try to understand what love is, as that is one requirement for becoming God (God must love everyone). Eventually, she starts to recognize certain emotions when she is with Seiji, finally discovering she is in love.

Seiji Aino (藍野 青司, Aino Seiji)

Voiced by: Kenshō Ono (Japanese); Austin Tindle (English)

Seiji encountered Guri when she appeared at his front door, cosplaying as a shinigami She then told him that his name was written in the Kiss Note and if he didn't kiss someone within the next 24 hours, she would die and he would remain a virgin for life. He eventually reveals his crush for Akane, only to find out her yandere tendencies. Seiji is a more-or-less level headed individual, trying to please all the women around him without hurting them. He, like all the others except for Guri, are minor angels as Guri made them all into a relationship together. As a result, they are all effectively immortal (But they still feel pain) and if Guri fails to do her job all the people connected to her this way will cease to exist altogether.

Akane Hiyama (緋山 茜, Hiyama Akane)

Voiced by: Manami Numakura (Japanese); Amber Lee Connors (English)

The Class Idol of Seiji's school. Seiji initially had a crush on her prior to the start of the series, but failed to act on such emotions out of the belief that she is out of his league. Upon discovering this, Guri decides to use her as Seiji's lover so that she will not die due to the effects of the Kiss Note. However, Akane approaches him which startles Seiji causing him to reveal his kiss to Guri. This causes Akane to fly into a psychotic rage, as she had noticed his "loving stares" and eventually developed feelings for him as well. She begins to accuse him of cheating with her and then stabs Guri in the head, then revealing her immortality. Eventually Guri gets the two to kiss, calming Akane down briefly before aggravating her again by revealing that she added her own name as well. While she does often attack Seiji (mostly for comic relief), it is because she truly loves him and wants him to pay more attention to her. Akane has a habit of pulling out endless number of kukri knives hidden in her clothes to fight. She gets extremely violent (sometimes by unconscious reflex) should anyone try and steal Seiji from her, especially Guri and Shikimi.

Yuzu Kichougasaki (黄蝶ヶ崎 袖, Kichōgasaki Yuzu)

Voiced by: Yūki Nagano (Japanese); Monica Rial (English)

Younger half-sister of Akane, sharing the same father. She is in love with Akane, both as a sister and as a woman, although she later also develops some feelings for Seiji. Immensely protective of her sister, Yuzu often stalks Akane wherever she goes (which Akane is fully aware of and pays no mind to). She becomes good friends with Guri and Seiji, despite an initial rocky start. Yuzu is also added into their harem, when Guri adds her name in the Kiss Note to Akane and Seiji's anger. Yuzu possesses the ability to conjure a powerful (yet unexplained) defensive barrier that can defend her from everything between Akane's knives to an oncoming truck. Due to her barrier ability, Yuzu found it difficult to make friends in her youth as her peers feared her for it. Guri becomes fast friends with her, however, after complimenting her ability as cool and later sharing her love for male romance with Yuzu.

Shikimi Shiramine (白峰 樒, Shiramine Shikimi)

Voiced by: Yumi Hara (Japanese); Felecia Angelle (English)

The sadistic, hollow, and manipulative cousin of both Akane and Yuzu. Shikimi decides to enter Seiji's school in disguise upon discovering his relationship with Akane and Yuzu. She requests that Guri add her to his harem for the sole reason of gaining the immortality/divine protection due to being partnered to Guri. However, Guri rejects the request because she could tell there was no actual love in her for Seiji. Shikimi's favorite hobby is "afflicting people", as it's what brings her joy more than anything else. A running gag in the series is that Shikimi often angers Akane with her attempts to seduce or kiss Seiji.

Aqua Aino (藍野 あくあ, Aino Akua)

Voiced by: Rie Takahashi (Japanese); Madeleine Morris (English)

Seiji's tomboyish younger sister. During their childhood together, Aqua was originally far more girly than her present age. She began to change herself however, when Seiji began spending less and less time with her in order to get his attention back. Despite this, Seiji failed to notice her to the point where it developed into animosity against Seiji, much to his confusion. Upon discovering Seiji's newfound harem, her discontent grows further (as she would rather have him to herself). Aqua tends to injure Seiji whenever she is irritated with how ignorant Seiji is about her emotions. However, she still cares for him and jumps to defense, when he is insulted.

Korari (コラリ)

Voiced by: Nobuyuki Hiyama (Japanese); Sonny Strait (English)

Guri's boss, a higher level angel who monitors the activities of Cupids under his jurisdiction. Unlike other angels, Korari usually does not take a physical form on Earth, and often uses the Aino family's pet cat Blue as a vessel since his introduction. Korari states that he has absolutely no understanding of the Human concept of Love, and has a tendency to refer to humans as lower level beings compared to himself. Korari has a habit of being very vain about his appearance, especially when he uses his true form. A running gag in the series is that despite Korari's assertion that his form is beautiful, most people find him scary instead and are unable to look directly at him. The only exception is Aqua when she sees his true form for the first time, calling it beautiful to the shock of Seiji and the joy of Korari, but his cat form still scares her off.

Kamisama (神様)

Voiced by: Hōchū Ōtsuka (Japanese); Barry Yandell (English)

The current God, also Guri's father. Despite being the highest authority in Heaven, he often slacks off and uses his special television set to view events on earth freely. Has a habit of doting on his daughter and spying on her via his TV. He gives Seiji the mission to teach Guri about love so she can be a proper cupid and eventual God. He claims his wife left him due to loving all beings equally as his job demands.

Maou (魔王)

Voiced by: Takehito Koyasu (Japanese); J. Michael Tatum (English)

The current lord of Hell. Originally, Hell was ruled by Mavuro (Guri's mother), his predecessor until she left after conceiving Guri. He has an inferiority complex, and considers himself unfit to rule Hell. Despite his pleas that Mavuro remain as the Devil Lord, he fails to convince her before she disappears. This causes him to turn to Guri as a potential successor since she is Mavuro's daughter and seek to drag her down to Hell by any means to accomplish this.

Tarō Tsuruoka (鶴岡 太郎, Tsuruoka Tarō)

Voiced by: Yasuaki Takumi

Yuzu's personal attendant and chauffeur assigned to her by her mother, Ameisha. Despite the fact that he is supposed to report on Yuzu's actions to her mother, he often is forced into helping Yuzu stalk Akane. Tsuruoka tends to be very paranoid and prone to panicking over failing to do his job lest he face cruel punishment from Yuzu's mother.

Stolas (ストラス, Sutorasu)

Voiced by: Kenyu Horiuchi

Known by the public in Seiji's hometown as "Stolas the Demon". A sociopathic anthropomorphic penguin with violent tendencies, Stolas bears a disturbing obsession with Seiji's younger sister Aqua, intending to mate with her. He attacked the two as children but was locked in a cage until he broke out years later to chase down Aqua once more. Stolas doesn't necessarily speak per-se, it's just implied that based off Stolas' eyes what he may be saying.

Stolas eventually develops an enmity with Korari for Aqua, being defeated by both after Aqua overcomes her fear of him. He returns, being modified by a scientist who gave him a robotic armor and intended to use him as a weapon to destroy couples. This backfired when Stolas recognized Aqua and reassumed his lustful agenda on his own, forcing Korari to fight him once more, and in a final clash uses his divine powers to purify his wicked desires, turning Stolas into a normal penguin. After being returned to the Aquarium he's matched with a male penguin by Guri.

Tiara (天亞薇, Teiara)

Voiced by: Eri Kitamura (Japanese); Jamie Marchi (English)

Mavro (マヴロ)

Voiced by: Yukari Tamura (Japanese); Bryn Apprill (English)

Guri's mother.

Suo Hiyama (緋山 蘇芳, Hiyama Suō)

Voiced by: Sayaka Ohara (Japanese); Colleen Clinkenbeard (English)

Akane's mother and the Matriarch of the Hiyama assassin clan. Often described as a beautiful yet emotionless woman, Suo fell in love with the same man as Ameisha did. Despite the three-way relationship doing well for some time, when their shared lover disappeared she buried herself in the affairs of her family business out of despair. Like her daughter Akane, Suo keeps a large stash of katanas hidden in her Yukata and is very proficient with them.

Ameisha Kichougasaki (黄蝶ヶ崎 アメイシャ, Kichōgasaki Ameisha)

Voiced by: Rina Satou (Japanese); Caitlin Glass (English)

Yuzu's mother and the Matriarch of the Kichougasaki clan. In contrast to the Hiyamas, the Kichougasaki clan specializes in guard detail. Ameisha, the Matriarch can only be described as the exact opposite of Suo. Loud, emotional, and far less conservative in dress, she clashes heavily with the stoic Suo. After their shared lover disappeared, Ameisha was hardly fazed by the event, instead choosing to move on without worrying. Ameisha, like her daughter, possesses a similar barrier ability yet with more advanced capabilities such as creating shock-waves.

A strange girl named Guri arrives at the house of Seiji Aino with a notebook called the "Kiss Note," which has the power to cause love between people.

The next day, Seiji's crush, Akane Hiyama discovers Seiji and Guri's apparent relationship, and attempts to murder them both with Gurkha knives out of jealousy. The two eventually make-up, with Guri revealing her status as a cupid from heaven, and pairing them together with the Kiss Note, but not without including herself into the harem much to Akane's chagrin. Later, Guri's boss, Korari possesses the body of Seiji's cat Blue, and informs Seiji that because he and Akane are now technically in a relationship with Guri, they have become immortal and must help her complete her duties as a cupid or risk being sent to hell. At school, a mysterious girl steals the Kiss Note, and is later revealed to be Yuzu Kichougasaki, Akane's younger half-sister, who has magical telekinetic powers and also happens to be obsessed with Akane. Yuzu is ultimately incorporated into Seiji's harem by Guri as well.

Shikimi is convinced Akane is too weak to survive the feud. This is proven true as Akane fights Stolas, who has again returned for Aqua, and is badly injured as a result. That night at school, Seiji, Guri, Yuzu and Akane attempt to help a couple prove their love by hunting ghosts. However it turns out the couple are also in fact ghosts who had fallen in love, but other jealous ghosts had refused to let them go to heaven until they proved their love.

As part of the cultural festival, the class decide to put on a play with Shikimi, Akane and Guri as the Princess, Knight and Knight's Rival respectively.

Later with Akane in the garden, Seiji keeps his promise to Akane and kisses her, which increases her happiness and love towards him. At night, the girls all sleep in Seiji’s room while Seiji sleeps in the living room, however by morning, all the girls have moved into the living room with him.

Seiji arrives to protect Aqua but finds that she no longer needs protecting. Aqua realizes her brother is still the same person he always was, despite his polyamorous relationship.

Guri has been missing for over a week and Korari is concerned as to why Seiji is not taking it seriously. Seiji suspects Shikimi is responsible and confronts her. Shikimi captures Seiji and kisses him repeatedly with Guri secretly watching. Guri had previously confided in Shikimi her fear something was missing between her and Seiji, so Shikimi suggested staying away from Seiji and observing him and his relationship with the other girls. Guri saw that Seiji did not seem to be looking for her. Shortly afterwards, an enraged Akane and Yuzu arrive and Shikimi reveals the depressed Guri to the group. Shikimi tells her to ask Seiji how he feels about her, where Seiji angrily responds that Guri has only ever been a nuisance. Shocked and downcast, Guri seals herself in a cocoon of black feathers. Maou appears, having been working with Shikimi to manipulate Seiji into breaking Guri’s heart so she would fall from heaven and be reborn as a demon. The new demon Guri nonchalantly announces that the old Guri is dead and it is Seiji’s fault. Guri then leaves and begins breaking up all the couples she ever brought together while an angel.

After reuniting with Yuzu, her and Seiji are sent to heaven by Korari where Kamisama suggests that Seiji and Yuzu go to hell to retrieve Guri. In hell, Guri refuses Maou’s offer to become the new Satan so he can retire. Seiji and Yuzu's disguise is uncovered by Shikimi, which forces them to flee. They are rescued by Akane, who reached hell by being shocked to death of the thought of Seiji marrying another woman and having kids with her. After reaching Guri, Akane demands that Guri either return to normal or stay a demon forever. Seiji finally realizes how badly he had been treating Guri and pleads with her to return to normal. After Guri instinctively makes a dirty joke, Seiji realizes that normal Guri is not gone after all. Shikimi explains Guri’s plan to disappear because of the pain she felt when no one seemed to miss her. Guri becomes so confused by her feelings that she almost faints. Seiji, following advice from Kamisama, asks her what she really wants. Guri’s demon wings are suddenly replaced with angel wings as she returns to normal, having realized she wants Seiji to love her, she kisses him and professes her love to him. The heartfelt moment abruptly comes to an end when Akane, furious at the kiss, throws a knife at Guri’s head. With everything back to normal Guri promises to add Shikimi to the harem if she gives love a try - further enraging Akane.
