As Polka Takahashi - Polka is a first-year high school student attending the Asakusa satellite campus of Love High School. She struggled with math in her early years and also failed her high school entrance exam. However, her life changed when she discovered L High, an online high school. To be Polka, you must first get a long orange wig and give it a tail on your left. Simple, really.
As Mai Azabu - Mai is a first-year high school student attending the Asakusa satellite campus of Love High School. She excels in Tronware, programming, and logical thinking, and dreams of creating a beautiful programming language no one has seen before. A short blackish wig should do the trick, given that her hairstyle is about the same size as Liella's Tang Keke. Don't forget to put a light blue ribbon on your front right.
As Akira Goto - Akira is a first-year high school student attending the Asakusa satellite campus of Love High School. Akira aims to be a top athlete someday, so she enrolled at L High to pursue her hopes. She prefers spending time alone rather than with the others. Becoming Akira requires getting a long brownish wig and giving it a ponytail as long as it matches Akira's hairstyle. Don't forget the small light green ribbon to your right.
As Hanabi Komagata - Hanabi is a first-year high school student attending the Asakusa satellite campus. Her family runs a kimono shop and hopes to take over the business someday. An extremely long black wig and a yellow ribbon to your left is more than enough to become Hanabi. Be mindful of the kimonos.

As Noriko Chofu - Noriko is a first-year high school student at L High's Fukui satellite campus. She aspires to become a voiceover and after taking an audition since she was a senior middle school student, she was able to join a talent agency, but she doesn't have a proper job yet. To become Noriko, you will need long, dark purple hair as well as two lavender ribbons on your top. That's it.
As Yukuri Harumiya - Yukuri is a first-year student enrolling at L High's Umeda satellite campus. She has been learning ballet since she was little, and she loves musicals. Just a short brownish wig should do the trick as long as it matches Yukuri's description.

Remind you of someone? Anyway, Aurora has extremely long, light blond hair. As long as you have that kind of wig that matches Aurora's description, you'll be fine.
As Midori Yamada - Midori is a first-year student at L High's Umeda satellite campus. She is passionate about environmental awareness, and her enrollment at L High is her way of promoting this cause. Midori Yamada, the group's environmental activist, has a green hairstyle similar to Maomao, the main character in "Kusuriya no Hitorigoto." If you have been saving a Maomao wig, you will likely need it to dress as her.
As Shion Sasaki - Shion is a first-year high-school girl of unknown origin. She loves coordinating uniforms and broadcast videos from her home, but she mostly can't go to school due to trivial matters, and prefers to stay in her room. To become Shion, you'll need a short brownish wig that resembles the hairstyle of Yukiho Hagiwara from THE IDOLM@STER. Make sure the hair color is slightly darker than Yukiho's. Once you have the wig, add a pair of white nekomimi headphones, and you're all set!
