Haru Kozakura

Birthday: March 26

Year: First-year student

Instrument: 1st Violin

Voice Actor: Minako Sato

Haru possesses a gentle and serene heart, though she often comes across as modest and shy.

This reserved nature makes her hesitant in social situations, but she is a deeply caring friend.

A little secret about her is that she wears glasses when she's relaxing at home.

A Talented Musician

Haru is an experienced violinist whose skill is so remarkable that even the prodigious Hajime Aono has praised her playing.

Her musical talent is one of her defining, yet understated, characteristics.

Middle School Trauma

Her shy demeanor is rooted in a painful middle school experience where she was bullied so intensely that she had to transfer.

This difficult past is also the reason why Hajime, rather than Haru, ended up teaching Ritsuko how to play the violin.

Hajime Aono

Haru first became aware of Hajime after they participated in the same competition, where he comforted her when she was crying over her loss.

Upon reuniting with him in high school, her old feelings reignite, and she sometimes can't help but feel a twinge of jealousy when he's friendly with Ritsuko and other girls.

Ritsuko Akine

Haru and Ritsuko are best friends, sharing a close and supportive bond.

Within the *Ao no Orchestra* universe, Haru shares some interesting commonalities with the character Mirai Kohinata.

These include a very similar appearance and the fact that both characters are the best friend of a major protagonist.
