• Ono Yusuke: His deal is that he's a gay guy that every man is attracted to, except one who we'll get into later, and so naturally he has one night stands every night. Ofc every woman finds him handsome too, but he's traumatized by women and can't be around them for too long because when he was young, he saw his mom cheat on his amazing father :( ...only for us to find out from his sister that his dad also cheated on the mom lmao. This is tacked on at the very end of the comic, so we don't even see if this changes his opinion on women at all? Naturally he's the greatest baker ever too, with even top French bakers from five star hotels wanting him to work for them and fuck him!!! [ROLLING MY EYES UNTIL THEY'RE FALLING OUT OF MY SOCKETS RN]
• Kanda Eiji: This is the boxer guy. He becomes an apprentice under Ono after his injury (but don't worry, the manga makes sure to have other characters tell us that he was one of the top boxers in Japan!) He's also revealed to be a former teen delinquent who slept with many women before, but he's not about that life anymore ig. He's the character I had the least issue with because while he does suffer from some of the aforementioned writing issues, I like that we see him start off as a weak baker and get better as the series progresses. However, the story also feels the need to tell us that Eiji's potential is so great that one day he'll even surprass Ono, so even he's not immune to the "this is the most perfect and loveable guy ^-^" beam.
• Tachibana Keiichiro: Owner of Antique and the first person we're actually introduced to. I was actually okay with him because he actually does have some flaws such as being quick to anger and being unlucky in love/not adored by everyone he meets. We learn that he was actually the person that rejected Ono from the flashback. Then the story reveals that he was kidnapped as a child. At first it's implied that he was abducted for ransom because he comes from a rich family, until there's a twist where we find out how he was molested by the kidnapper. The last chapters are dedicated to him helping the police solve a kidnapping case, just not involving his kidnapper, but another one...only to see his actual kidnapper visit the bakery and walk off in the last chapter with no resolution? Uhh
• Kobayakawa Chikage: Tachibana's childhood friend and assistant/bodyguard. He's kind of a microcosm of what I hate about this comic because he constantly needs to talk about how amazing and perfect both Tachibana and Ono are. His secret is that he's actually a dad. His daughter comes to the bakery in one chapter to cry about how her mom is soooo mean, only for Chikage to be like "no she isn't :)" and save the day or whatever. He does have one flaw at least in that he's as dumb as bricks.

Re: Tachibana's story, I don't mind when manga tackle sensitive topics like child sex abuse, but incorporating this topic in the middle of a whacky comedy just wasn't the move. Also, we learn that the molestation is the reason behind why he struggles to maintain his relationships, but the manga puts more emphasis on how the molestation is why Tachibana rejected Ono harshly as if that's the most pressing issue here.
