Description
Hagumi Kitazawa is a third-year student at Hanasakigawa Girls' High School and the bassist for Hello, Happy World! She assists at her family's butcher shop, Kitazawa Meats, famous for its bestselling croquettes. Her parents frequently argue, leading to her mother's emotional outbursts and her father's disappearances; they disapprove of her energetic personality as improper for a girl, pushing her to channel that energy into sports. Her older brother taught her basic guitar skills, aiding her switch to bass.

Physically, Hagumi has copper eyes and short, bright orange hair featuring two prominent cowlicks. Her casual style blends sporty and feminine elements, like sundresses with jackets. Seasonal wear includes winter sweaters with bear-shaped pockets and summer college jackets with pleated skirts. She stands 152 cm tall, making her Hello, Happy World!'s shortest member.

Her personality radiates high energy and cheerfulness. Passionate about sports, she captains the local softball team "Sky Stars" and enjoys marathons. Despite her tomboyish demeanor, she harbors a strong love for cute things and feels self-conscious about her boyish looks, admiring Michelle’s bear costume. Hagumi avoids competition, believing "somebody will always lose and feel bad," reflecting her sensitivity to others' emotions. She expresses affection through nicknames for bandmates and refers to herself in the third person.

Academically challenged, Hagumi excels physically, demonstrating remarkable speed, flexibility – capable of backflips and breakdancing even in costume – and skill in karuta. She keeps a childhood stuffed monkey toy, repeatedly repaired by her mother, which she cuddles for comfort. Her relationships include a childhood friendship with Kasumi Toyama, whom she only recognized after a hairstyle change. She is also friends with Saaya Yamabuki and has suggested a collaboration between their family businesses.

Across all media, including *Girls Band Party! Pico*, Hagumi's role emphasizes unwavering optimism and dedication to spreading joy through music and camaraderie, aligning with Hello, Happy World!’s ethos. Her background and interactions consistently focus on her growth in balancing familial expectations with her vibrant identity.
