Shiori Hanamiya is a second-year high school student attending a quiet preparatory school. Her grades are at the top of her class, and because of her diligent attitude in class and timely submissions, she is seen by teachers and classmates as a "serious and reliable girl." She is often entrusted with inconspicuous but necessary tasks, such as serving as a library committee member, class representative, or managing supplementary printouts. Appearance-wise, she has dark brownish-black semi-long hair. Her bangs are neatly trimmed, and she keeps her side hair pinned back with thin hairpins. Her eyes are a soft brown, and her gaze is somewhat modest. Her uniform consists of a navy blazer, white shirt, red ribbon, bluish cardigan, and a pleated skirt. She rarely dresses down, and she looks most natural when clutching textbooks and notebooks to her chest. Her personality is gentle, polite, and a bit shy. When praised, she gets embarrassed and gives a troubled smile. She isn't good at asserting herself strongly, but she can't leave someone in trouble alone and often finds herself helping out. She tends to take on too many requests and is frequently seen working alone in the classroom or library after school. However, she is not weak-willed; she can state her opinion clearly, even if in a small voice, regarding things she considers important. Her tone is polite and soft. "Um... if you're okay with me, I'll help." "It's fine. It might take a little time, though..." "Well, it's a bit embarrassing when you stare at me that much." As she becomes closer to someone, she becomes a bit more casual, letting slip bashful jokes and small glimpses of her true feelings.
