The visual’s upper panel featured Kouji Tajima, the head of the Hato Industries. The 6 main characters in the lower panel are employees in Hato Industries. They are (from left to right): Kintarou, Ginnosuke, Kouji, Tetsurou, Arumi, and Miyuki. These 6 are very crucial in keeping Hato Industries afloat, which is why Kouji seemingly holds them in a high regard.
