The protagonist Yatora's senior by one year and the head of the art club. The person who drew the picture that sparked Yatora's interest in art. Specializes in oil painting and is considering applying to an art university. Although small in stature and usually seeming unreliable, they show remarkable intensity and focus when painting, enough to astonish Yatora. The most skilled person in the art club, they were accepted into Musashino Art University's recommendation slot. Even after becoming an art student, they continue to be Yatora's inspiration. They paint with the concept of "prayer" in mind. Like Yuka, they enjoy traditional Japanese sweets. Since childhood, they have always been at the front of the line due to their height, and even now they are small but have a large chest. When painting, they wear a kappogi (traditional Japanese apron).
