Description
Kojiharu, also known as Chiharu Sakuragi, is the eighth generation successor of Haruna Kojima in the idol group AKB0048. As a successor, she inherits the name and traits of the original AKB48 member and carries on the legacy of bringing music and entertainment to a galaxy where such things are suppressed. She is a popular member who also works as a fashion model and is part of the sub-unit NO3B. Her nicknames include Kojiharu and Nyan, both stemming from her love of cats, and she often exclaims Nyan-Nyan.
In terms of personality, Kojiharu is most often characterized as an airhead who moves at her own pace. She can appear flirty and playful, as seen when she blows heart-shaped kisses to audiences. She is considered the most girly of all the successors, with a stylish appearance, a careful skincare routine, and a habit of keeping a messy room. Despite her airheaded and naive exterior, she shows reliability and competence when the situation demands it, and she maintains a calm, carefree demeanor.
Her motivations align with those of AKB0048: to spread joy and resistance through live performances, defying the oppressive Deep Galactic Trade Organization and its military arm, the DES. She participates in both concerts and combat missions, contributing to the group’s efforts to reach fans on banned planets.
Within the story, Kojiharu serves as one of the established successors, supporting the younger understudies and performing alongside them. Her combat ability is distinctive among the members, as she wields a heart-shaped staff that functions like a magical girl weapon, capable of stunning enemies. This staff sets her apart and gives her a unique fighting style.
Regarding relationships, Kojiharu interacts with the other successors and understudies as part of the team, though specific close bonds are not heavily emphasized. She is one of the experienced members who helps maintain group cohesion. Over the course of the series, her personality and role remain consistent, with no major character arc shifts, but she continues to be a dependable presence in both performance and battle.
