    "Atelier Sophie 2" Early Purchase Joint Bonus Release!

WORLD

Under the piercing blue sky of summer,
there exists a unique academy.

There we meet
students who lost their memories.

Why were they gathered here?
Will they be able to get back to their world?

The journey to find an answer
to these questions begins.

CHARACTERS

AO HOSHIZAKI

“Aah! I don’t get it!
Just what’s going on
with this world?”

星崎 愛央

AO HOSHIZAKI

CV. Kanako Yanagihara

A student living an ordinary daily life. After failing her end-of-term exams, she enrolled in a summer academy, but ended up wandering into an unknown world. In this world she meets Kokoro, Yuki and Rena. Together they work to find a way to return to their own world.

KOKORO UTSUBO

“I want you
to come with me!”

靭 こころ

KOKORO UTSUBO

CV. Tomoyo Takayanagi

The first person whom Ao met when she wandered into the unknown world. She tends to do things at her own pace and seems to let her mind wander aimlessly. She is serene and was very nice to Ao when she suddenly arrived. After losing her memories, it is unknown whether she is originally a resident of this world or if she, like Ao, is from another world and wandered into this one.

YUKI KINJOU

“I wonder why
we ended up here!”

⾦城 勇希

YUKI KINJOU

A student living with Kokoro inside the academy. She has a bright temperament and is full of energy. She acts like a positive influencer inside the group and spends her days searching for fun things even in this abnormal situation. She suffers from memory loss.

RENA MIYAUCHI

“Good grief.
What about searching
for a bit?”

宮内 伶那

RENA MIYAUCHI

CV. Maki Kawase

Another student living with Kokoro inside the academy. She has a tendency to look at things negatively, and is often sharp with her words but has a good heart. Always taking a step back to see the bigger picture, she is the one charged with calming down the members who tend to be a bit too reckless. Rena has lost her memories.

HINAKO SHIRAI

“Do you know
something about me...?”

⽩井 ⽇菜⼦

HINAKO SHIRAI

CV. Yuuki Takada

A student who appeared before Ao’s group after a certain event. Once a ballet dancer with incredible potential, an injury to her foot made her unable to dance. She has lost her memories.

trapped here?”

A student who appeared before Ao’s group after a certain event. A kind and studious honor student, she likes to take care of others and is an expert in domestic matters. She has also lost her memories, but Kokoro seems to know her.

I don’t know what’s
going on...”

平原 陽桜莉

HIORI HIRAHARA

A student who appeared before Ao’s group after a certain event. She is brightly expressive, athletically gifted, and has an honest personality which makes her easily approachable. She has also lost her memories, and is looking for her “sister”.

I could forget!
I will never forget
you Hiori.”

She appeared before Ao and her friends after a certain event. She is Hiori’s big sister. Mio is calm in all circumstances and lets out a somewhat mysterious aura around her. She lost her memories of everything but Hiori.

UTA KOMAGAWA

“Who might you be?
And where are we?”

駒川 詩

UTA KOMAGAWA

CV. Rui Tanabe

She joins Ao and her friends after a certain event.She is quiet and straightforward, but she is also not very good at sensing people's feelings.
She has lost her memories like everyone else, but some of the other students are wary of her for some reason.

KIRARA KUNO

“I feel like there's some
kind of important
task I must
complete here.”

KIRARA KUNO

CV. Yuko Ono

A girl who appeared in front of Ao and her friends after a certain event.
She has a mysterious atmosphere, occasionally uttering prophetic words.
Kirara also lost her memories, and was found unconscious.

SYSTEM

Even in this unreal world,
the students cooperate and struggle
to make their everyday-life as rich and fun as possible.
By deepening their bonds, Ao and her friends will
eventually grow closer to
the mystery of this world
and the reason why they lost their memories.
