Surprisingly stubborn, and is usually involved in trifling arguments, even with her partner Yūna. She has such a lovestruck disposition that her discovery that Yūna is actually nothing like how she imagined only caused her to fall that much harder for her.

- Yūna Matsubara (松原 優菜 Matsubara Yūna)
- Voiced by: Pochi Uchino

A campus idol, naturally adored by her juniors (and even by her seniors), while seemingly totally oblivious to that fact. And yet She's actually a rather spoiled, dirty-minded girl. Also the type of person who isn't satisfied unless she puts all her heart and soul into something.She's the Chairman of the Environmental Preservation Committee which functions essentially as the student council, and the proud daughter of parents who are joint directors of a major hospital.

She's what you might call an open book, and has a kind of natural innocence. Her affection towards Kaede is in full overdrive, both publicly and privately.

She doesn't hesitate to say, "Sensei belongs to me," in front of her classmates and friends and yet with her self-centered personality, she cares little for what others have to say. She's quite possessive when it comes to Takako, but rather than impulsively losing her temper, she seems more likely to quietly threaten.

She rarely shows her soft side and is unflappable. When she does show her soft side, she becomes timid and casts nervous glances from beneath her lashes. Although you wouldn't guess it from the way she talks, her behavior is actually quite ladylike. Possessing one of the most prominent intellects on campus, she has been offered the chance to study abroad and even skip grades, but she hates interacting with others, so she enrolled in the not particularly academically demanding school for high-class girls.
