The main character, Kohane, always acts for others, neglecting her own interests. Kohane always thinks about others and neglects what she wants to do, but one day, she sees some cheerleaders cheering for a baseball game on the riverbank. Charmed by her cute yet powerful attitude, and the way she cheers for others with all her might, she decides that she wants to become a cheerleader herself! Unfortunately, there is no cheerleading club at her high school, but thanks to Kohane's unyielding enthusiasm, people gradually gather and the club starts up. By the way, the title seems to mean "Animal + Cheer" since each character has an animal's name in it.
Cuteness Ranking #10: Akane Saruwatari, CV: Aimi Tanaka

As you can probably tell from the surname, the #10 is Akane Saruwatari, the younger brother of Uki, a member of the cheerleading club! He looks cute, but he's a boy (lol). He made it into the shota category, so he made it into the rankings! He seems to love Kohane just like his big sister, and when Kohane talks to him, he blushes and gets embarrassed.

Akatone is just like her big sister and is not very honest. They really feel like siblings and it's nice to see them. No matter what, Akatone-chan, or rather Akatone-kun, loves his big sister very much.
Cuteness Ranking 9th Place: Home Economics Club President CV: Natsuno Nao

She is the head of the home economics club that Akitsune belongs to, and is a senior who entertained the cheerleading club at the request of the basketball club and the cheerleading club for a tasting. She has a rather rough personality for a member of the home economics club, but her cooking skills are very good, and the cheerleading club members get excited and end up overeating. By the way, her real name is currently unknown.

The moment she taught me the joy of cooking was cute. However, she was disappointed when she was told that she didn't have a partner even though she was training to be a bride (lol)
Cuteness Ranking 8th place Basketball Senpai CV: Yurina Furukawa

This is Basketball Senpai, commonly known as Basketball Senpai, who first asked the cheerleading club to be cheerleaders. Although her real name is unknown, Basketball Senpai surprisingly appears many times in the story and has quietly become a regular character! She is casually very friendly towards the cheerleading club, and is a boyish, cool and cute character, just like the basketball club members.

The cheerleading club itself is liked by the entire basketball club, and this is the moment when the cheerleading club begs to be allowed to cheer in order to digest the calories they've eaten too much. It was a very cute moment when the basketball senior was timid because he couldn't refuse.
7th place in the cute ranking: Inukai-sensei, CV: Matsui Eriko

Inukai-sensei has been making sporadic appearances since the beginning of the story, offering her praise at every milestone in the life of the cheerleading club! Inukai-sensei is around thirty and unmarried! (lol) He's basically a bit of a lazy teacher, but Kohane threatened him with a story about his dark past and he became the advisor for the cheerleading club. He's a kind teacher who always leads the group and cheers them on.

This is the moment that became the direct reason for her to become an advisor. Although she is usually a lazy teacher, she was so agile in her student days that she was called the Inukai of creative dance (lol). She reluctantly becomes an advisor using this as a joke, but this face is cute for someone in her 30s.
Cuteness Ranking 6th place: Kon Akitsune CV: Hiyori Kono

Akitsune Kon is the first girl to come to the cheerleading club with a request. She is classmates with Kohane, Uki, and Kotetsu. She asks the cheerleading club for help with her love affair, but the girl she is with is actually an older woman, and Kon surprises her by revealing that they are both full-on lesbians. I thought that maybe Kotetsu and Kon would join the club and make it five, but unfortunately Kon ended up joining the home economics club. Her name comes from the sound of a fox and the cry of the fox, Konkon.

Kon-chan confessed in a style called the Arima style, taught directly by Hizume's older brother, where he confesses sincerely and neatly. He confessed in this style and it was a great success, but I'm really curious about what kind of relationship he has with the woman he's dating, so I hope they'll describe it at least a little!
5th place in the cute ranking: Tatejima Kotetsu, CV: Kusunoki Tomori

Tatejima Kotetsu is the fourth to join the cheerleading club. She doesn't seem to like her cool, girly name very much. In the story, Kohane and the others call her Kotetsu-chan. At first, I thought she was just a classmate, but she ended up joining the cheerleading club. She has a relatively weak personality and is like a small animal, and is very cute, but she also has a hidden side to her: her sharp tongue. I wonder if her name comes from the tiger and vertical stripes.

She has many scenes from this point onwards, and she's always cute, so it's hard to choose, but I think the cutest scene is when she decides to join the club. Kotetsu-chan is also cute with her sharp tongue, but I'll go with the traditional one here!
Cuteness Ranking 4th Place: Saruwatari Uki CV: Izawa Mikako

Kohane's childhood friend, mother, girlfriend and best friend, Saruwatari Uki! She loves Kohane more than anything, and even though she tries to hide it, she's a lesbian. Normally, she's the only sensible person in the cheerleading club and plays the straight man, but when Kohane switches on, Uki turns into a pervert (lol). Uki's appearance is very cute and entertaining. I guess her name comes from the sound of a monkey and the cry of Ukki.

This is Uki dressed as a cheerleader in Kohane's fantasy. She didn't actually wear it this time, but she's very cute! When it comes to Uki, it's hard to decide between a cute and perverted scene, but like Kotetsu-chan, I made it a more traditional scene.
Cuteness Ranking 3rd Place: Ushiku Kana CV: Shiraishi Haruka

Currently, Kana Ushiku is the last to join the cheerleading club! She's a late addition, but she's a character full of wonderful charm! She has big breasts, twin tails, is tsundere, and is a yuri! She's such a wonderful character. She loves Hizume so much that she agrees with everything she says, which is also cute. As an experienced cheerleading club member, she is a versatile character who can act as a coach. Her name probably comes from a cow and a nose ring.

This time, I chose Hanakawa-chan, who has a nice body, so I chose Hanakawa in a swimsuit. But Hanakawa-chan is also cute in scenes involving hooves.
Cuteness Ranking 2nd Place Arima Hizume CV: Yamada Yuina

Arima Hizume was the one who gave Kohane the opportunity to start cheerleading! She has straight black hair, which is the standard for beauty, and a cool look that makes her the epitome of cool beauty! And yet, when she's cheerleading, she smiles like a different person, which is irresistible! She's both intelligent and beautiful, but she's also cute when she's so serious that she ends up being a joker. Her name comes from the words horse and hoof.

She's always cute, so it's hard to choose, but Hizume's smile while cheering is the best! That's why I chose this scene.
Cuteness Ranking #1: Hatoya Kohane, CV: Ozaki Yuka
Source: Anima Yell! © Ubuka Tsukasa, Houbunsha/Anima Yell! Production Committee
As expected, the first place goes to Kohane, who is also the main character! In terms of appearance alone, Hizume and Hanawa are just as cute, but Kohane's personality and actions are just too cute! She's kind, hardworking, and positive, and her silly side makes her even cuter! She's such a wonderful character that just looking at her makes you feel better. I wonder if her name comes from a bird and a feather?

This is the very first scene in the original work, and I think it's a scene that is packed with Kohane's cuteness. This smile is very soothing...
Cute Ranking Summary!

As expected, the top 5 are all cheerleading club members! In reality, they are all so cute that it is difficult to rank them, but I have ranked them based on my personal tastes, so please use this as a reference only (lol). The bottom five are also very attractive characters, whether they have names or not. Be sure to check out these cute girls in the anime or the original work.
