  1. Strike Frontier heroines
  2.  
  3. Shirakawa Minori: Main character's childhood friend and classmate. Gets along with other heroines, group chats with them on a "message app" (LINE?). Didn't belong to any club but learned kyudo at the Tamase kyudojo. Second dan. Impressed with how the kyudo instructor there is a calm adult womanly woman and this is of course referring to 2016 Tama. Favourite colour is pink, likes cats. Kind of tsundere, likes main character.
  4.  
  5. Oosawa Rinka: Classmate of MC and Minori. Childhood friend of Daijuuji Iyo. Parents work for the Mitsurugi zaibatsu, and she admires Meiya.
  6.  
  7. Hoozuki Akaru: Semi-hikikomori gamer. Admires the greatest netgamer in the Kanto region, "KEI". Wears a pillow as a hat so that she can sleep anywhere/anytime.
  8.  
  9. Daikuuji Iyo: Related to the Daikuuji clan. Weird name is because she was named by Ayu. Ayu is now a successful global businesswoman. The Daikuuji group is run by Ayu's brother Gaiou. Iyo admires Ayu. Favourite colour is gold.
  10.  
  11. Takamori Misaki: Classmate. Likes teamwork and exercise, hates thinking. Was a troublemaker in middle school, where her form teacher was Chizuru, who is still a middle school teacher as of 2016. Favourite colour is orange.

  16. LD11 Strike Frontier: Interview with Tashiro Hayato on Strike Frontier
  17.  
  18. Tashiro's role in working with DMM is overseeing that SF doesn't "break the setting" of Muv-Luv (ie- put in stupid shit that's out of place). He did the same on Next Answer so apparently dead people dressing up in skimpy idol outfits is not out of place in Muv-Luv Alternative. He's also in charge of the main scenario and some of the character scenario scripts.
  19.  
  20. The main goal of the main scenario is to expand the world they've already built. This will show old fans new possibilities, and also help introduce the world to new people (using DMM as a platform is also to get more new users). The story is similar but different to Alternative. The player character AND the main five heroines are from our world's 2016. Takeru and the usual people are still in the Alternative world so we meet them there. Each main scenario chapter consists of five episodes, episodes are unlocked through fulfilling conditions like "defeat this many BETA".
  21.  
  22. Having these new characters have links to the grown up 2016 versions of the old characters is part of how they're expanding the world. Minori's link to Tama is because he wanted Minori to do kyudo, which emphasises strength deep down. Old fans should remember Meiya complaining about Takeru using Sky Temple, and that the Mitsurugi zaibatsu's food business was mentioned as being bad then. Rinka's parents are in charge of the Mitsurugi food business. There's a branch opposite Sky Temple. The food business is named Yuumei-an (yuu and mei are of course from Yuuhi and Meiya).
  23.  
  24. Daikuuji being involved is because Tashiro wanted to do it. Iyo's name is not just Ayu's shifted one character down on the kana chart- Ayu is also Himiko, leader of the Sakimori. The name Himiko comes from that of the queen of the Yama-taikoku and her successor was named Iyo.
  25.  
  26. Misaki and Akaru are the last characters to show up. They wanted to make them stand out more, and so Misaki wears an outer over her BDU and Akaru gets the pillow-hat. The characters all brought some stuff like smartphones and wallets with them from their world, but this can't really be shown through the art, and they wanted something that could be shown through the art, thus pillow-hat.
  27.  
  28. Regular and R-18 versions share data so users can play both versions with the same stuff. Only difference is the character scenarios. Each character has five chapters in each version.
  29.  
  30. It's undetermined if the stuff in Alternative will happen in SF. However Takeru IS Alternative Takeru who's been through Unlimited. He tries not to change history too much but the main character and the heroines are already a massive change. Since this is a social game, they'll be able to change the story based on the reactions of the users, too. They want to balance "new possibilities" and "introducing Alternative". Tashiro already has several ideas, but isn't sure if he'll be able to use them. One thing is concrete so far: Tama's dad does show up, as Yuuko decides that they shouldn't stop the HSST incident, though for different reasons compared to Alternative.
