Description
Hana Sasayama is the main protagonist of her story and serves as the founder and editor-in-chief of Monthly Comic Earth Star. She is a young woman with a bright and energetic presence, characterized by her chestnut-brown hair styled in a choppy bob with bangs parted down the middle, secured by a small hair clip shaped like an amber flower. She has vivid ginger-orange eyes and a notable prominent canine tooth on the upper right side of her mouth. Her typical outfit consists of a beige sweater featuring an amber star print on the chest, a short bright-pink skirt, black thigh-high leggings, and brown dress shoes, often completed by her company ID card hanging around her neck.
At her core, Hana is a very kind, enthusiastic, and ambitious individual. However, she is also notably disorganized and unprofessional in her approach to work. Despite these shortcomings, she possesses a determined will and always manages to complete her duties. Her lack of professional polish sometimes leads her to behave inappropriately, such as when she once offered to pose nude for the magazine to boost sales. Her energy and eccentricity are so dominant that she tends to be the focal point of most situations.
Hana’s primary motivation is to successfully launch and run her manga magazine, a dream she pursues with great optimism even though she and her team have no prior experience in the publishing industry. This ambition is the driving force behind her role in the narrative, as she leads her small, all-female staff through the chaotic and often comedic challenges of meeting deadlines and managing manga artists.
Her most significant relationship is with Aki Torii, who is her childhood friend. While Hana is the one who got Aki involved in the project, their friendship is characterized by Hana’s tendency to tease Aki about past experiences. The dynamic is such that Hana essentially blackmailed her friend into becoming the co-creator and editor-in-chief alongside her, showcasing a somewhat manipulative but playful side to her personality.
Within the group, Hana is the clear leader and driving force. While other characters like Aki are more capable and grounded, Hana’s boundless, if chaotic, enthusiasm pushes the team forward. Her notable abilities lie not in technical skill but in her relentless spirit and ambition. She is able to remain optimistic and lead her staff through their constant failures and problems, always working hard toward their shared dream despite her own disorganized nature.
