Fūka Kikuchi possesses a reserved and introspective nature, frequently seeking solace in the library driven by her profound love for books. Her black hair contrasts with light yellowish eyes, though an occasional perception of silver hair lends her an ethereal quality. Her surname translates to "chrysanthemum pool," while her given name evokes wind, breeze, manner, and fragrance.

An aspiring novelist, Fūka actively studies human behavior, motivations, and the experiences that shape individuals, reflecting her deep fascination with understanding people. She holds strong admiration for the author Michael Andi (a reference to Michael Ende), known for works like *Masked Pilot* and *Fairy of Truth*. Her initial connection with Fumiya Tomozaki stems from a misunderstanding where she believes he shares her literary passion. Learning he hasn't read Michael Andi's books brings disappointment, but her spirits lift when he commits to reading them, forging a bond between them.

She has a younger brother, Riku Kikuchi, whose occasional teasing causes her to fluster. Aoi Hinami identifies Fūka as a suitable romantic prospect for Tomozaki and orchestrates opportunities for him to confess. Over time, Fūka and Tomozaki develop mutual romantic feelings and begin dating.

In her interactions, Fūka demonstrates quiet kindness and a tendency to prioritize others' needs, sometimes neglecting her own well-being. She exhibits high empathy and intuition, often sensing unspoken emotions or troubles in those around her. Her journey involves navigating social relationships, supporting Tomozaki's growth, and pursuing her writing passion, all while learning to balance her selflessness with necessary personal boundaries. Fūka evolves from a background observer to an active participant within her social circle and personal relationships.
