Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight!


Synopsis
Manabi Straight! follows the lives of a group of young high school girls living in the year 2035 while they attend the all-girl Seioh Private High School. Due to the fact that birth rate has dropped dramatically, schools are being closed down due to the sheer lack of students available to teach. Morale in schools has dropped dramatically, and Seioh is no exception.

The story begins when the main character, Manami Amamiya, transfers to Seioh High School. Manami is an active girl with a positive personality, often shouting her personal motto Massugu Go! (meaning "Go straight ahead!"). Despite it being the day before her first day, Manami decides to go to Seioh to witness the forty-fifth swim meet where four members from six classes participate in a relay race against each other. On the way to school, Manami, or Manabi as she wants to be called, meets Mika Inamori, a shy student of Seioh who was to participate in the swim meet, despite her not knowing how to swim. After an intense ride together on Manami's futuristic scooter, they end up literally crashing the meet over the fence and into the pool.

"A Happy Life" by Megumi Hayashibara

Characters
Manami Amamiya
Manami, also known as "Manabi", has a very active personality and gives everything a lot of effort. It is mainly due to her uplifting personality that other students begin to have more vigor in their lives. Her motto in life is Massugu Go! (meaning "Go straight ahead!" or "Go forward!") which she recites as a motivator for herself to go forward in life.


Mei Etoh
Mei, also known as "Mee-chan", usually appears to be a stubborn girl who tends to be industrious and competitive despite her standoffish nature. Mei secretly desires to be friendlier, but finds it difficult to express her emotions. This is due to an event in her past during elementary school when she was unanimously voted to be the class representative.


Mutsuki Uehara
Mutsuki, also known as "Mucchii", is an exceptional athlete whose reputation often precedes her. Mutsuki participates in a multitude of other sports-club related activities in addition to the work she puts forth for the student council, despite initially not being an official member. She has a tomboyish personality, often hitting Mei on the back very hard and sporting a short haircut for a girl.


Mika Inamori
Mika, also known as "Mikan" , is a shy and clumsy girl who is constantly falling down and bumping into things. As an only child, she has taken advantage of her position and has been spoiled by her parents. After meeting Manami, Mika becomes very attached to her. At first she was the only member in the student council, taking the position of secretary, but was later joined by Manami when she became the student council president.


Momoha Odori
Momoha, also known as "Momo", is a quiet girl from a rich family who may seem lazy since she tends to sleep during class time. She does not talk much, which usually leaves her to not get directly involved with student council affairs. She is a member of the journalism club and broadcast committee, which serve as the reporters of school news either through printed articles or recorded interviews. Her hobby is videotaping the events of the student council surrounding Manami and her friends.
