- Explore an All-New World - Discover the Beauty of Tsukitani!
Founded three generations ago under the calm moonlight of the western shores by Japanese immigrants, Tsukitani, the Valley of the Moon, was a small but tightly-knit town where everyone knew everyone else and people of all types happily coexisted in harmony. But when two of the richest families in the state saw the sleepy Tsukitani's potential (for two very different reasons), they began to clash head-on. What will become of the valley?
Families[edit | edit source]
- de Fortuné family - 8 Hodgson Road
Nicolas de Fortuné, Marie de Fortuné, Nancy de Fortuné
The de Fortuné family has always sought money and power, and they had always won. So when Nicolas and Marie decided they wanted to transform Tsukitani into a huge private estate, they expected nothing less than utter surrender from the people. Unfortunately for them, they now face stiff competition from the Korolev family, another rich household with reversed moral compasses. Will the de Fortunés emerge victorious as always, or will Tsukitani be the name of their downfall?
- Fujiyama family - 20 Maibara Circle
Kohei Fujiyama, Naoko Fujiyama, Kojiro Fujiyama, Masako Fujiyama, Chihiro Fujiyama
One of the first settlers, the Fujiyama family has been around since the beginnings of the town three generations ago. Even more amazing: the first still lives to tell the tale! Kohei and Naoko are now enjoying life with their favourite (and so far only) grandchild. But with Masako pregnant with another baby, they'll soon have another little tot to play with! Will Chihiro lose the favour of her grandparents?
- Kawaguchi family - 1 Unity Grove
Ichiro Kawaguchi, Kenji Kawaguchi, Yoshihiro Kawaguchi
Ichiro Kawaguchi moved to Tsukitani from his native Himeji a few years ago. After the most unfortunate demise of his parents, he took in his younger brothers Kenji and Yoshihiro. Ichiro is now trying to teach his brothers how to move beyond convoluted and frantic hand gestures.
- Kita family - 22 Moonlight Lane
Naomi Kita, Mitsumi Kita, Sohei Kita, Ryuunosuke Kita
When evolution had a particularly bad day, it decided to create the werewolf, a cross between man and wild dog. Mitsumi never found out this dark characteristic in her boyfriend Naomi until they got married. She still loves him anyway, but she's a bit worried about how her two sons will turn out.
- Korolev family - 10 Maibara Circle
Mikhail Korolev, Kara Koroleva, Sergey Korolev, Frida Koroleva
One of the two feuding families trying to change Tsukitani, the Korolev family hopes to transform the sleepy town into a developed society. They have donated portions of their massive funds to Tsukitani's school and city council, allowing the valley to thrive. But with the arrival of the infamous de Fortuné family a few months after themselves, the race for the town's support began. Who will win?
- Lombardier family - 1 White Doves Close
Frederic Lombardier, Henriette Lombardier, Dakota Lombardier, Cora Lombardier, Robert Lombardier
Henriette Lombardier always believed in fairies, and her parents always laughed in amusement at her whimsical fantasies. But never did she expect she'd meet a male one! Now that she is happily married and has three flight-capable kids, she has her eyes set on becoming the next Sherlock Holmes!
- Mage family - 1 Forrest Gardens
Peter Mage, Paula Mage, Luisa Mage, Elisa Mage, Konstantin Mage, Furball Mage
This family of witches/wizards recently arrived in town so that the kids could practise their spells in peace and quiet. But Peter and Paula have to deal with an increasingly rebellious teenager and two feuding twins. What exactly is keeping this troubled bunch together?
- Minami family - 2 Hodgson Road
- Old Man household - No address
This old hermit lives isolated from the rest of the town, where he finds peace and quiet amongst the little-visited lake in the valley's southeast. It is a mystery as to how long he has been there. There are urban myths suggesting that the Old Man fled to the lakes because he lost his daughter many years ago. Others say that he is many centuries old and lives by the lake because of some sort of rejuvenating properties of its water, and that he was there even before Kohei and Naoko Fujiyama. But no one really knows...
- Suzumiya family - 9 Gekkou Boulevard
Masaki Suzumiya, Ayako Suzumiya, Daisuke Suzumiya
Phew! One down, one to go. Now that Ryoko was married to a nice man (a foreigner too - ooh!) they can focus on raising their teenage son. Unbeknownst to the rest of his family, Daisuke had a little run-in with some bloodsuckers and ended up becoming one himself. How long till his secret is revealed to the world?
- Suzumiya-Pine family - 8 Gekkou Boulevard
Neil Pine, Ryoko Suzumiya-Pine, Kajiro Suzumiya-Pine, Victoria Suzumiya-Pine
Neil is a scholarly academic from the Sims University, the top tertiary-level institute in the entire country. He is intelligent, athletic and stunningly handsome. But nothing could prepare him for the wonderful, kind Ryoko Suzumiya, or the family they would later share. He now juggles his well-paying job at the science lab and his family. How long till he drops the ball?
- Taurisian family - 10 Gekkou Boulevard
Julien Taurisian, Merit Taurisian, Juniper Taurisian, Aloisius Taurisian, ASTUN3
Hailing from the futuristic city of Oasis Landing, the Taurisians preferred what they saw in Tsukitani to the wastelands surrounding their hometown, so they decided to stay - but not before returning and taking their faithful PlumbBot with them! While Julien and Merit have a harder time trying to fit in, and much more so for ASTUN3, the twins have no problem doing so - they now even prefer to wear the antiquated clothing of the past!
- Toshiba family - 18 Moonlight Lane
Ah, time to relax. Koichi and Ayoko have short rest-of-their-lives to get on with, so they are happy that Masako is finally grown up. Now Koichi can read the many books in his library, and Ayoko can tend to her garden. Those petunias aren't going to water themselves, you know!
- Vampires Anonymous household - 13 Gekkou Boulevard
Tameichi Satsuma, Keisuke Nojiro, Yuki Matsuri, Philip Ronson, Johann van Helsen
These vampires are some of those that hate being vampires, hence the "anonymous" in their group name. They are charitable, you know - they just took in little Johann last week! Yes, they did attack a certain Daisuke Suzumiya that happened to come across them one night, but it was necessary that time - they were starving! Honest!
- Zrtkelzi family - 4 Hodgson Road
Xaidos Zrtkelzi, Sandy Zrtkelzi
When Xaidos Zrtkelzi arrived on Earth, he did not expect to meet Sandy, a woman that, as far as he was concerned, was prettier than the Birth Queen herself. He dated, then settled down with Sandy in Tsukitani. Now that there's a baby on the way, Xaidos and Sandy are wondering what exactly the future will hold!
