Yuki Satoshihisa (played by Tatsuya Fujiwara) is a protagonist in The Incite Mill.
Yuki Satoshihisa is one of the ten applicants brought to the secluded facility for the highly paid seven-day experiment. He openly says that he wants the money to buy a car, making his financial motivation clear. He joins the same uncertain group as Takehiro Osako, Wakana Tachibana, and the other participants. Shoko Suwamei (played by Haruka Ayase) is a protagonist in The Incite Mill.
Shoko Suwamei is a former secretary who accepts the unusually lucrative job and enters the psychological experiment with the other applicants. During the group introductions, she provides that limited piece of personal information while becoming part of the ensemble whose actions and reactions will be observed alongside Takehiro Osako and the others. Biyoru Sekimizu (played by Satomi Ishihara) appears in The Incite Mill.
Biyoru Sekimizu is a web designer among the ten people selected for the secluded experiment. She participates in the initial introductions and joins the group as they examine the matching figurines, question their purpose, and react to the facility’s unsettling rules. Her connection to the leads is that she is a fellow participant sharing their confinement. Takehiro Osako (played by Tsuyoshi Abe) appears in The Incite Mill.
Takehiro Osako is a medical intern who joins the experiment because he is interested in it, rather than presenting money as his main reason. He introduces himself when the participants gather and becomes a prominent point within the group because Wakana Tachibana openly says she dreams of marrying him. He is therefore linked directly to Wakana as well as to the other participants. Wakana Tachibana (played by Aya Hirayama) appears in The Incite Mill.
Wakana Tachibana is a nail stylist who accepts the lucrative position and enters the seven-day experiment with the other applicants. During the introductions, she openly declares that she dreams of marrying Takehiro Osako, establishing her direct personal interest in him. Her romantic statement distinguishes her within the otherwise uneasy group of confined participants. Sousuke Iwai (played by Shinji Takeda) appears in The Incite Mill.
Sousuke Iwai is one of the ten applicants who enter the secluded facility after accepting the unusually well-paid experimental job. The initial introductions reveal little information about him, making him comparatively opaque within the group. He nevertheless shares the same confinement, surveillance, rules, and unsettling discoveries as Takehiro Osako and the other participants. Sawako Fuchi (played by Nagisa Katahira) appears in The Incite Mill.
Sawako Fuchi is a housewife from Setagaya who joins the group recruited for the seven-day psychological experiment. Her introduction identifies both her domestic status and her place of residence, but the available events do not provide further personal motives or actions. She is connected to the leads as one of the participants sharing the facility and its unexplained conditions. Yoshi Ando (played by Kinya Kitaoji) appears in The Incite Mill.
Yoshi Ando is an applicant who says that the architectural firm he managed went bankrupt. The financial difficulty helps explain why he accepts the dangerous-looking opportunity and its promise of substantial earnings. Once inside, he becomes part of the ten-person group with Takehiro Osako and the others, facing the same surveillance and warnings about irrational situations.
