Sakura Kouno, a third-year student in Class 3-5 at Katagiri Senior High School, serves as vice president of the student council, working closely with president Kakeru Sengoku and mascot Remi Ayasaki. Standing 163 cm tall, she carries herself with an air of quiet diligence, her shoulder-length forest-green hair and matching eyes accentuated by round-framed glasses. Her school uniform—paired with black tights and white sneakers sporting green laces—emphasizes a practical yet understated style, though peers frequently note her striking features. Despite this attention, she privately wrestles with insecurities, measuring herself against Remi’s bubbly charm. Introverted and self-critical, Sakura habitually undervalues her own traits while idealizing others. Yet her role in the student council reveals a sharp organizational mind, as she quietly steers meetings, deadlines, and events with methodical precision. Slowly, friendships chip away at her self-doubt, nurturing a steadier confidence that allows her to voice opinions and assert boundaries without sacrificing her innate kindness. Her quiet affection for Toru Ishikawa manifests in small gestures, like carefully baked cookies, though his lingering attachment to Yuki Yoshikawa leaves her heart unreciprocated. The rejection stings but fuels her resolve to grow, accepting setbacks without bitterness. Bonds with Remi deepen into a sisterly alliance marked by playful teasing and unwavering support, while her dynamic with Sengoku mirrors a respectful, sibling-like camaraderie. A skilled baker, Sakura channels her creativity into desserts and meals, using food to express care or bridge awkward silences. An Aquarius with subtle Buddhist influences, she navigates high school without a romantic resolution, instead finding fulfillment in self-acceptance and the quiet strength of friendships. Her journey traces the shift from a hesitant girl to someone who carries her scars lightly, choosing to nurture connections and her own evolving identity with equal grace.
