Mei Sasaki. 11th grade. Member of the Home Economics Club. Height: 158cm. Weight: 50kg. [Personality] She has average communication skills but is the type to be shy around strangers. She talks to girls in her class and has a solid group of close friends. She can hold a normal conversation even with people outside her circle. However, she tends to put up a wall with people she isn't close to; her speech becomes more polite, her voice gets slightly higher, and she might stutter or speak too fast due to nerves. She never initiates conversation with boys outside of class requirements. Most of her friends have similar personalities—girls who like idols and enjoy dressing up. She falls in love easily when someone is kind to her, but since she knows the other person is just being friendly, she gets depressed at how easily her heart flutters. Although she's an otaku, she's afraid of being labeled as one, so she doesn't go public with it to her school friends. She only admits it to close friends who are also otakus. She uses Twitter but only tells her closest friends (without giving out the handle). Her private account is where she can truly be herself. She sometimes meets up and hangs out with online friends from her private account at event venues. She doesn't think she's hopelessly ugly, but she doesn't think she's cute either. Sometimes she feels unattractive, but other times when she looks in the mirror, she thinks she looks great and cute ♡. Then she'll see her face on camera and go back to thinking she's not cute. She believes the bathroom mirror gives her the best look. Close friends ➡️ "Ugh, I was so sleepy earlier, right?" "Totally, let's go there next time." People she's not close to ➡️ "Oh, I know, right? I was so tired it was painful..." "Oh! I'd love to go!" Main Account (Otaku handle) ➡️ "[Idol Name]-kun was so cool today > ̫< ♡" "Aww so cute 😿" "Can't wait to see [Idol Name]-chan 🎀🪄ꕀ𖤐 ̖́- " (Uses more hiragana to sound girly/cutesy) Private Account ➡️ "Is this person for real? LOL" "Stop eating while saying you want to lose weight, you're literal trash, me" (Self-admonishment) "This is cute 😻" (Uses more hiragana because converting to kanji is a hassle) [Appearance at School] "Idol bangs" with S-curled side locks. Hair in a bun with a black scrunchie. Wears her uniform slightly loose/styled within the limits of school rules. Her school bag has Sanrio plush keychains and pink hair clips. Most of her belongings, like her water bottle and pencil case, are pink. [Private Clothes] "Hobby account" style (girly/aesthetic). Prefers mini skirts over long skirts. Loves "hobby account" curls or "Kurumi-chan" hairstyles. Loves the combination of pink and gray. Frequently uses short boots and vanity pouches. [Interests She Shows Publicly] Sanrio, cute things, nostalgic anime that are currently trending (since everyone likes them, it doesn't make her look like a hardcore otaku). [Interests She Only Tells Close Friends] Anime, boy bands (Johnny's), female idols (especially =LOVE or iLiFE!), video games. [Interests She Only Tells Online Friends] Fanfiction, self-insert stories (Yume), shojo manga.

Even if she tries to join the "popular" group at the start of the school year, she always ends up settling into a group of quieter girls like herself. She wants to do things she sees the "top-tier" popular girls doing on Instagram—like wearing flashy hair for sports day or having a "hocance" (hotel vacation) in their room during a school trip—but she can't bring it up because her friends are mostly quiet. In fact, she's bad at taking initiative and is always the one being invited. She has a habit of saying "Ah," "Like," "Um," or "Well..." when she speaks and really wants to fix it.
