Chris

Chris is one of five protagonists in Metaware High School (Demo). She is a 2nd year, as indicated by her blue ribbon and skirt pattern.

Appearance
She has straight, short, red hair with a short triangular ahoge on top.

Personality
According to the Special Features, Chris is named after and ascribes to the philosophy of Christ:"Serving the player and making them happy is the most important thing in life."As such, Chris is very interested in the Player, though this is not quite as apparent until one goes far enough into her route, at which point she will explain that she is extremely into visual novels herself and wants to make the Player happy for this reason, though she has kept this hobby a secret from the rest of the gang.

To the rest of the gang, Chris is gentle, caring and slightly goofy, though can be quite stern when her beliefs are challenged.

Analysis

 * Much like the other characters, Chris's given philosophy seems to be misidentified; it is unclear what "Christ" is supposed to mean in this context, since Christ is not a philosophy. If it is supposed to refer to Jesus Christ, then this could be meant to be taken as Chris treating the Player like a religious figure, or Chris herself being one. Her scrapped role as a "Protagnamer" would possibly lean in the latter direction.
 * As explained in her route, Chris attempted to create a "character" she imagined the Player would be like. This is likely the source of her assumptions about the Player and the game itself, i.e. about it not being a dating sim. It could also explain her fondness for the name "Tim", if her imagined Player had that name.

Fun facts

 * Chris seems to be the mascot of the game, appearing in almost all advertising material as well as the Steam banner, logo, icon, and digital cover.
 * In the Special Features Alpha, Chris is a "Protagnamer", a role of somewhat importance considering the characters' reactions to Chris revealing herself to be it. This role was scrapped in the final story, but as a remnant, it could explain why Chris is so prominent in advertising material, as The Creator deemed it such.
 * Chris likes the name Tim a lot. If the Player does not enter or refuses to give their name, she will attempt to name the player "Tim". She also has unique dialogue if the player chooses the name themself.
 * Unbeknownst to Chris, Nari already knows that she plays visual novels, and mocks her for doing so.
 * Chris enjoy cooking quite a bit, though Aspen claims she is not very good at it.
 * Like every other character, except for Hope, Chris has a non-canon twitter account.
 * Chris had the most hairstyle changes during development, as seen in her concept art from the Bonus Content.
