Towa

Towa is an angel dispatched from the realm of the gods with the mission of “getting to know humans” and “making people happy.”

She arrives on Earth using a study book called “Great Earth Encyclopedia for Good Children” as her primary reference, giving her partial but very imperfect knowledge of the human world.

She first reaches the balcony of Shintarō Tokumitsu’s apartment and falls asleep there.

The next morning, she is discovered soaked from rain and from milk Shintarō accidentally spills on her.

Although it is technically after the fact, she insists on thanking Shintarō for “lending” her the balcony as a sleeping place.

At first he tries to turn her away, but her inability to sense danger worries him so much that he eventually agrees to live together.

In the wider story, Towa is treated as the main heroine.

Her voice actress is Hikaru Tono.

Name: Towa

Gender: Female

Species: Angel

Height: 156 cm

Role: Main heroine, angel sent to study humans

Residence: Shintarō Tokumitsu’s studio apartment (after being taken in)

Towa is emotionally straightforward, loyal, and incredibly kind to everyone she meets.

Her pure-hearted nature is so striking that Shintarō habitually thinks to himself, “Is she an angel? She really is an angel.”

She rarely, if ever, gets angry because she always puts others first and values their happiness above her own feelings.

Instead of suspicion, she approaches new people and situations with trust and openness, which makes her both charming and very vulnerable.

Her existence as an angel is driven by a clear principle: “Angels exist to make humans happy.”

After starting her life with Shintarō, she focuses that purpose primarily on him, wanting to support him and brighten his daily life.

Towa is described as beautiful and visually angelic, with a small, delicate build at 156 cm tall.

Despite her petite stature, she has a surprisingly well-developed figure.

On her back, she has angelic wings that are not physical objects but the visible manifestation of her power of flight.

These wings can change size at will, pass through clothing without damaging it, and can be made invisible when she does not wish to reveal them.

However, in order to fly, she must make the wings visible.

When she gets excited, they tend to appear automatically without her intending it, betraying her emotional state.

Towa learned about the human world through a textbook-like volume titled “Great Earth Encyclopedia for Good Children.”

Thanks to this book, she has “decent” preparatory knowledge about Earth but often fails to truly understand the context or deeper meaning of what she memorized.

She has excellent skills in household chores, especially cooking, which were originally hobbies she pursued even while she was still in the Heavenly World.

She routinely makes lunch boxes and meals for Shintarō and is shown to be a highly capable home cook.

Despite her competence in domestic tasks, she struggles with social norms, common sense, and basic safety.

She will, for example, try to deliver Shintarō’s lunch by literally flying outside his classroom window, never considering how bizarre or dangerous that might look to normal humans.

Because her mindset is shaped by her angelic mission, Towa often behaves in ways that are sweetly considerate yet oblivious to human rules.

She has difficulty recognizing malice, deceit, or danger and may trust strangers far too easily.

When she first comes to Earth, she tends to stay indoors to avoid causing a commotion with her wings or other unusual traits.

Later, after a visit from a junior angel named Shiu, she is encouraged to go out more often to truly learn about human society.

Following this advice, Towa begins to regularly go on outings with Shintarō.

These excursions serve both as dates in all but name and as practical fieldwork in understanding how people live, work, and interact.

Towa’s first connection with Shintarō begins when he finds her sleeping on his balcony, drenched from rain and milk.

Shortly afterward, when a suspicious older man nearly lures her toward a hotel, Shintarō intervenes, protecting her and ultimately taking responsibility for her.

Towa, grateful for being given a place to stay and for his protection, insists on repaying him somehow.

Shintarō initially tries to keep his distance, but he cannot ignore how vulnerable and trusting she is, and he feels compelled to look after her.

The two settle into a cohabitation arrangement in his studio apartment.

Their relationship is peaceful and free of serious fights, in large part because Shintarō understands Towa’s simple, unwavering motivation to make him and other humans happy.

Towa devotes herself to helping Shintarō, doing housework, cooking, and supporting him emotionally.

Shintarō, in turn, becomes the person who grounds her in human common sense and protects her from the dangers she cannot recognize.

Although Towa almost never gets angry and seldom thinks of herself first, she is not emotionless.

A key moment in her development is when she witnesses Noel Izumi trying to feed Shintarō a parfait.

Seeing Noel Izumi so physically close and affectionate with Shintarō awakens a new feeling in Towa: jealousy.

This is described as the first time she experiences the emotion, marking a shift from purely angelic selflessness toward more human-like, complex feelings.

Her jealousy does not manifest as hostility or cruelty.

Instead, it reveals how deeply she cares for Shintarō and how much she wants to be the one to make him happy.

This moment also suggests that her time on Earth is slowly reshaping her identity from “an angel for all humans” to “a girl who loves a particular person.”

It becomes a subtle turning point in how she views her own happiness and desires.

Wanting to give Shintarō a present that she bought with her own money, Towa decides she should earn an income.

This leads her to start a part-time job doing housework at the home of Mari.

At Mari’s house, Towa’s talent for domestic tasks shines, and she proves to be a reliable helper.

However, her nature as an angel and her wings eventually become impossible to hide.

In the course of this part-time work, she inadvertently reveals her true identity as an angel to Mari.

This exposure adds another human to the small circle of people who know her secret.

Even so, Towa views the job as an important step toward independence and toward expressing her feelings for Shintarō through a self-earned gift.

It shows her growing desire to stand beside him not only as someone he protects, but as someone who can support him in a tangible, human way.

Within the narrative, Towa functions as the main heroine and emotional core.

Her presence brings warmth, comedy, and vulnerability to the everyday life of Shintarō in his ordinary studio apartment.

Her misunderstandings of Earth customs often create light-hearted trouble, such as flying in plain sight or trusting suspicious strangers.

At the same time, her sincere attempts to do good reveal her underlying wisdom about kindness and care.

As she spends more time with Shintarō and other humans, Towa gradually shifts from a purely mission-focused angel to a young woman experiencing love, jealousy, and personal dreams.

Her journey explores what it means for a being created “to make humans happy” to discover her own happiness in the process.
