Would it be possible for you to write a brief discription of the overall story (character backgrounds, themes, etc...) of Tenshi ga Inai Jyuunigatsu for me?
Guh, I'll try my best to do so.
The basic theme of the story is... as far as I can describe, about real life relations and interactions between people.
The premise is that the protagonist is a person who believes that interpersonal relationships are too troublesome, and consciously avoids such, even onto the level where he avoids his family members. With Touko's scenario serving as the foundation of the story, it illustrates the changes within him and the interpersonal relations he starts to face as he gets entangled into the matters of other people.

No, he doesn't change in the way that he becomes a happy social guy, its mostly subtle changes.

Talking about the characters is kinda spoiler, I think.
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
Kurihara Touko:
Touko is a girl who in many senses, somebody who can be described as a person who is good-for-nothing. She is constantly under the umbrella of protection of her childhood friend, Shinobu. However, instead of needing people, she wishes to be needed by others instead. It is on this premise that she meets the protagonist, and it is the main reason that drives her through the scenarios.
Sakaki Shinobu:
The childhood friend and protector of Touko. Her existance is just about the exact opposite of Touko, she's good looking, she's excellent in her academia, she's somebody that others can count on. However, as Touko soon stops depending on her and moves towards the protagonist, Shinobu starts to lose her direction, as if she had lost a large part of her life.
All that's actually her reactions to Touko's scenario actually, her actual scenario moves in quite a different direction afterwards, where instead her strong sense of responsibility creates an immense amount of guilt when she goes against it, which completely breaks her to the point of suicide.
Hazuki Maho:
The good friend of the protagonist's younger sister, and her boyfriend, Isao is something of a friend/classmate of the protagonist. As the protagonist gets into a physical relationship with Touko, Isao starts to get anxious, as he has had a long time relationship with Maho already, but he still hasn't managed to get intimate with her, in contrast to the protagonist, who didn't even known who Touko was till recently, even though they had been in the same class.
Maho believes that sex does not need to be involved in a relationship, however, it is also due to the fear that their relationship would change once she has sex with Isao. This change that is referred to does not have any negative connotations, but rather is just the fear of change itself.
Asou Asuna:
Asuna is the big friendly dependable adult college student who works at the cake shop that the protagonist works part-time at. Her scenario is mainly about her leaving her past behind completely in order to move towards the future.
I'm not sure I completely understand her scenario yet though, but she's easily the coolest character in the game.
Sumadera Yukio:
Yukio is the other student who works part time in the cake shop that the protagonist works at. The first time the protagonist meets her is on the roof of the school, with her leaning over on the other side of the railing. She talks of suicide, but yet it is in an uncaring manner, as if there needs no reason for someone to be doing so.
Her scenario's one of the most interesting stuff I've read, but I'm not sure how to describe the rest of her story without digging out the entire story, so I'll stop here... I think.
