Ami Nekota is a supporting character in the second season of the anime, where she continues to be a close friend and classmate of the protagonist, Nanami Momozono. She is one of the first people to befriend Nanami after she transfers to their new school, forming a trio with their mutual friend Kei Ueshima.

In terms of background, Ami is a high school girl who stands out for her cheerful and approachable demeanor. She has a short stature and is recognized by her chin-length orange or reddish hair, which ends in large, permed curls above her shoulders. Her typical school attire is the standard uniform, but when spending time with friends outside of school, she is often seen in casual and cute clothing.

Ami's personality is defined by her naivety, gentleness, and bubbly nature. She is a loyal friend who cares deeply about those close to her and is often perceptive enough to notice when they are feeling sad or troubled. She brings a sense of warmth and positivity to her friend group, and her kind-hearted disposition makes her a reliable and trustworthy companion.

One of Ami's most notable motivations is her desire to support her friends. Her role in the story is primarily as a bridge between Nanami's ordinary school life and the supernatural world she inhabits. Although Ami is a normal human, she possesses a slight but natural spiritual sensitivity. This ability allows her to unconsciously sense the presence of yokai and other supernatural beings, which often draws her into the strange events surrounding Nanami, even if she does not fully understand them.

Her key relationships are central to her character. Her friendship with Nanami is particularly significant; while she initially found Nanami a bit strange due to the odd occurrences around her, she grew to admire and respect her, especially after a dangerous incident. During this incident, Ami was attacked by a demon in the school locker room. She was saved by a figure she believed to be Nanami, but was in fact Tomoe disguised as her. Following this event, Ami became closer to Nanami and promised to keep the supernatural secrets she witnessed, believing Nanami to be a shrine maiden living at a temple.

Another major relationship involves the idol Kurama Shinjirou. Ami develops a significant crush on him, which deepens after he saves her from another demon attack. Though he initially dismisses her as just another fan, the incident causes him to warm up to her slightly. Her feelings for Kurama are a recurring theme, showcasing her more flustered and romantic side. She also shares a long-standing best friendship with Kei Ueshima, which predates her meeting Nanami.

Throughout the series, Ami experiences development as she becomes more integrated into the supernatural side of Nanami's life. Her character evolves from being a distant classmate to an official, trusted friend who is protective and supportive. Her courage grows as she faces unexpected yokai-related situations, and she maintains her positive attitude despite being frequently exposed to these strange events. Her natural spiritual awareness, while not a combat ability, is a notable trait that makes her a unique human character who can act as a bridge between the mundane and the mystical worlds.
