Doki Doki Literature Club | Literary Club

Natsuki has pink eyes and straight, pastel pink hair that reaches her chin. Her bangs are parted to the right, with two prominent strands of hair visible next to them. Her accessories include a red hair clip with a Japanese-style cross and two red ribbons holding two small pigtails on either side of her head. The rest of her hair is left loose. Her canines are longer than the rest of her teeth, making them visible when she opens her mouth. Natsuki is shorter than the other members of the Literature Club, making her appear younger.

At school, Natsuki wears a standard school uniform, like the other characters. Hers consists of a gray buttoned-up jacket, a brown sweater, a white buttoned-up shirt underneath, and a neatly tied red ribbon. She also wears a dark blue pleated skirt, white knee-high socks, and white wubaki shoes with light blue heels.

Personality: Natsuki initially appears rude, arrogant, irritable, and even brazen, but underneath, she's very sweet and gentle, leading Monika to consider her the very embodiment of a tsundere. Although Natsuki is impulsive and sometimes speaks without thinking, she genuinely cares for her friends and doesn't like to argue with them, even when she has trouble keeping her composure. Throughout the game, it's clear that she even cares for Yuri, despite their frequent disagreements: during the second act, Natsuki gives the protagonist a note asking him to take Yuri to the doctor, fearing that telling her herself would only lead to more arguments. Natsuki is very stubborn and has difficulty expressing her feelings and desires. She becomes reserved, aggressive, and can even burst into tears if someone acts too provocatively towards her.

Natsuki loves baking: she baked delicious cupcakes to celebrate the arrival of a new member to the Literary Club.

Monika has long, coral-brown hair pulled back into a ponytail, slightly curled at the ends, and tied with a large white bow. Like the other female characters, she has two prominent strands of hair near her bangs that reach almost to her stomach. She has emerald green eyes. She is of average height, ranking second in height after Yuri.

At school, she wears a standard school uniform. Monika's consists of a gray buttoned-up jacket, a brown sweater, a white buttoned-up shirt underneath, a neatly tied red ribbon, and a dark blue pleated skirt. Unlike the others, her knee-high socks are black and reach up to her thighs, and her white wubaki shoes have pink tips instead of the blue ones the others wear.

Personality: Other characters describe Monica as smart, athletic, confident, and the most beautiful girl in the club. She's not as talkative as the other characters, but not by choice. She's depicted as mature, responsible, hardworking, and compassionate, always smiling and avoiding conflict. Monica is popular at school and admired by many, including the protagonist. During the game, he notes that he wouldn't try to impress her because she's too good for him and he has no chance of attracting her.

Monica was previously a member of the debate club, but left due to constant political conversations and internal struggles. She longed for order, free discussion, and friendly interaction. The literature club, which she founded after leaving the debate club, is incredibly important to her. She strives for it to become a place for self-expression and foster a shared interest in literature. Monica is also a passionate piano player, which she often practices after school.

Sayori has chin-length coral-pink hair, cut short and slightly curled at the ends. She wears a large red bow on the left side of her head, and has two prominent strands of hair near her bangs. Her eyes are bright blue. She is below average height, making her the shortest character in the game after Natsuki.

At school, she wears a standard school uniform. Sayori's consists of a gray jacket, a warm brown sweater, a white shirt underneath, and a red ribbon. Unlike the others, her jacket and shirt collar are always unbuttoned, and her ribbon is tied crookedly. She also wears a dark blue pleated skirt, white knee-high socks, and white wubaki shoes with light blue tips.

Personality: Sayori has a lively and cheerful personality, and her personality could be described as genki. She's clumsy: the red ribbon on her school uniform is tied carelessly, her room is often a mess, she's constantly late for school, and she frequently loses or drops things. Sayori is always hungry. She sometimes playfully tricks and deceives others to get food: on Day 2 of Act 1, she managed to eat Natsuki's cookies without her permission.

According to the protagonist, Sayori immerses herself in new hobbies, but usually gives them up after a week or two. She claims that writing poetry and studying literature are different from other hobbies because they help her explore her feelings.

Sayori suffers from severe depression and tries to make others happy to overcome her lack of self-esteem. She's usually the only character besides the main character who mediates conflicts.

Yuri is a sophisticated girl who displays maturity and elegance in everything she does.

She has straight, dark purple hair that reaches her upper thighs, with shaggy bangs and a couple of curls hanging close to her face. She wears a pair of shiny purple-violet hair clips, one on each strand near her bangs, though only one, usually the left, is ever visible to the player.

Like Natsuki and Monika, Yuri's curls form arches on top of her head, slightly reminiscent of cat ears. She has light purple eyes, narrower than the other characters. She is taller than the other members of the Literature Club.

Yuri has a more mature figure than Sayori, Natsuki, and, to a lesser extent, Monika. The protagonist describes her movements as graceful and surprisingly elegant, thanks to her long legs.

At school, she wears a standard school uniform. Yuri's consists of a gray buttoned-up jacket, a brown sweater, a white buttoned-up shirt underneath, and a neatly tied red ribbon. She also wears a dark blue pleated skirt, white knee-high socks, and white wubaki shoes with light blue tips.

Outside of school, she wears a beige long-sleeved sweater and black leggings.

Personality: For most of the game, Yuri is depicted as a quiet, shy, modest, and insecure girl. She tries to avoid conflict, often apologizes for trivial matters, and is afraid to express her opinion in discussions unrelated to her interests. However, when the conversation turns to topics of interest to her, her usual quiet and slow manner of speaking gives way to a clear, confident speech, making her difficult to stop. Although Yuri tries to be polite, in such moments she directly expresses her thoughts, not always considering whether she might say something unnecessary. Quite often, Yuri and Natsuki aggressively argue with each other about their different writing styles and favorite types/genres of literature.

Quite often, Yuri and Natsuki aggressively argue with each other about their different writing styles and favorite types/genres of literature.

Although Yuri is typically shy and reticent, she can be very talkative and enthusiastic when it comes to her favorite topics, such as poetry writing techniques or the books she's read. This makes it difficult for Yuri to make friends, as she tends to be overly talkative due to her passion for her hobbies and her strong desire to please others. In a conversation with Monika about Yuri's habit of drinking tea while reading, Monika wonders if Yuri is truly so passionate about her hobby or if she simply wants to appear sophisticated to everyone else.

Yuri has been judged for her appearance and behavior in the past, which is another explanation for why she leads an introverted lifestyle.

Yuri: Her favorite genres are fantasy and horror, because she enjoys stories with a well-developed and captivating universe.

Monica Monica highly appreciates the writing style of each club member and even compares them to famous writers and poets.

Sayori enjoys emotional, family-related, and romantic words. Her tone is romantic, sentimental, nostalgic, and sad. Sayori's favorite words tend to sound similar to other girls', but choosing the saddest option is a good way to remember them.

Natsuki enjoys reading manga, Japanese poems and other types of literature.
