Inori Konomi is the central protagonist of the series, a first-year middle school student who has just moved to Onegai Town. She is characterized by an ever-present cheerfulness and enthusiasm, approaching life with a bright and honest demeanor. Inori is notably straightforward about her feelings, but this sincerity can sometimes lead her to rush headfirst into situations without fully thinking them through. A defining aspect of her personality is her inability to turn away anyone who asks for her help, showcasing a deeply compassionate and selfless nature. Her energetic catchphrase, "Inori, nori nori!", which means "Inori is in the zone!", perfectly encapsulates her spirited attitude. Physically, Inori is depicted with long, hip-length blonde hair and bright pink eyes, and she is often seen wearing a dress with braids and a hat.

Inori's primary motivation is her absolute love for AiPri, the elegant idol princesses who perform live shows. Upon arriving in her new hometown, she visits the goddess statue in the town plaza and prays for the chance to become an AiPri herself. Her wish is seemingly answered when she encounters the popular AiPri performer, Aoi Yumemiya, and Aoi's mysterious, plush toy-like companion, Fortu. Aoi, who is searching for an AiPri capable of granting Fortu's wish, entrusts Inori with a special Mirror Pact. By opening this pact, Inori is able to make her debut as an AiPri, setting the entire story in motion. Together with Aoi and Fortu, she forms the Onegai Kanae-tai, or Wish Granting Squad, an AiPri unit dedicated to performing glittering concerts to make the wishes of the townspeople come true.

The central relationship in Inori's story is with Aoi Yumemiya, a fellow first-year student who excels in both academics and sports and is admired by her peers. Aoi, who is responsible and caring, lives together with Fortu. Aoi and Fortu feel that destiny has brought them together with Inori, forming a tight-knit and supportive partnership. Inori also interacts with a wider circle of friends, including the friendly Tomosaka Gumi, the diligent student council president Yuuki Olivia, and the mysterious ojou-sama Atami Nana, who watches the AiPri performances with an knowing smile. Another enigmatic figure is Mochinae Emma, a girl who peers into a crystal ball and offers cryptic advice, hinting at a deeper connection to the world of AiPri.

Inori's character development begins the moment she is granted her wish, starting her journey from a new student and fan of AiPri to becoming a performer herself. Her story revolves around learning to channel her innate desire to help others through her new role, using the power of her live shows to directly grant the wishes of those around her. Her notable ability, as an AiPri, is to perform a glamorous transformation using the Mirror Pact, which outfits her in a stylish coordinate with matching makeup. During her performances, she can aim for the dazzling costume highlight known as the Bazarium Change, a special effect that unlocks brilliant, winged Bazarium Coords. Through these spectacular live performances, she, along with Aoi, works to make the wishes shining in the hearts of everyone in Onegai Town a reality.
