Nao Chikura

A second-year middle school student and close companion of Ayumi, this character struggles with feelings of jealousy regarding the attention Kei receives. Alongside Koyoi, she avoids the usual walk home with Ayumi due to a lingering fear of Misao. Interestingly, her character design bears a striking resemblance to Misuzu Sotomura from Kawashita’s other series, Ichigo 100%, creating a subtle connection for long-time readers of the author's work.
