A beautiful girl who sits next to Ayanokouji. She is the opposite of Ayanokouji when it comes to friendship; she disregards it and thinks of making friends unnecessary, thus she does not communicate much with her classmates. She is not convinced that she was placed in the D class, therefore she aims to get promoted to the A class.

~! During, the first year Sports Festival, she realizes the importance of having friends and acquaintances whom she can rely on, and changes her outlook of living life in solitude. She then gradually starts getting involved with others, and rises to be the de facto leader of her class, although her attitude of looking down on others is retained.!~

~! In Year 1, Volume 11.5, her brother, Manabu, reveals to Ayanokoji that she used to be a cheerful girl who "always wore a smile on her face" and had short hair, in middle school. She idolized her elder brother to a large extent and agreed to whatever he said. Manabu didn't like her basing herself on him and wanted her to keep her individual identity. He started treating her coldly, to make her grow distant and realize her mistake, but it had the opposite effect. Upon his graduation from high school, she realized her mistakes, and had her hair cut, to show her resolve of moving out of her brother's shadow, who was overjoyed to see so. She, however, accepts that the "old her" and the "new her" are both "her" and embraces both her personas. !~
