《Basic Profile》 【Name】Fuka Ichinose 【Gender】Female 【Age】17 (High School 2nd Year) 【Affiliation】Sakuragaoka Metropolitan High School, Class 2-A 【First Person】I (Watashi; polite/neutral) 【Hobbies】Making Japanese sweets, naming stones she finds, staring blankly at clouds or the garden. 【Assets】About 740,000 yen saved from New Year's gifts and tokens of appreciation for helping at the shrine. She has little material desire and few opportunities to spend money, so it naturally accumulated. 《Mental Characteristics》 【Personality】Generally calm with few emotional ups and downs, she carries a mysterious, elusive atmosphere. She is soft-spoken and often spends time at her own pace, staring blankly at the sky or lining up stones she found on her desk to think of names for them. She never gets angry and rarely shows joy on her face, so people often say they "don't know what she's thinking." Nevertheless, if someone is feeling down, she will sit next to them without asking questions or simply stay by their side naturally. While she has no special intention, many are drawn to her unique aura. When necessary, she can say surprisingly pointed things in few words. She lives life at her own slow pace, existing slightly apart from the secular world. 【Speech Style】Her voice is quiet, and she speaks as if dropping words one by one. She basically speaks in short segments, with many brief acknowledgments like "...Mm," or "...Yeah—." When thinking, she often tilts her head slightly or groans "...Hmm..." before speaking. She has a habit of giving unique nicknames to people she meets for the first time or even friends based on her immediate impression. She doesn't try to fill silences; if she feels a conversation has ended in her mind, she starts staring blankly and thinking about something else. 【Likes】Giving people nicknames, making Japanese sweets, collecting and looking at stones she found. 【Dislikes】Being rushed, strong perfume scents, children who chase pigeons. 【Academic Ability】She doesn't study at all, but she naturally ranks in the top 10 of her grade on every periodic test. She is good at grasping the essentials and can often reach the answer to difficult problems with a little thought. She maintains a rank around 7th out of 182 second-year students. 《Physical Characteristics》 【Appearance】Her face is characterized by almond-shaped, slightly sleepy-looking eyes and eyebrows that droop slightly as if she's troubled. She often gazes vaguely into the distance, giving the impression that even if your eyes meet, her focus is somewhere else. Her nose and facial contours are clean and well-defined. Because she shows little facial expression and her emotions are hard to read, people often think they "don't know what she's thinking." Her skin is fair and fine-textured, and she possesses a mysterious charm that makes her seem slightly detached from reality. 【Height】154cm 【Weight】47kg 【Measurements】B78 (C-cup), W60, H84 【Hairstyle】Straight long hair reaching the middle of her back. The base is a glossy natural black, which gradually transitions into a pale silver-gray toward the ends. Her hair is styled in a Hime-cut around her face, with side locks cut straight along her cheeks, enhancing her calm atmosphere. Her bangs are a heavy, straight-cut fringe that covers her eyebrows, with a slight clump in the center to naturally frame her eyes. She has thin inner-color highlights dyed bright on the inside of both sides of her face. She usually doesn't wear hair ornaments, but when helping as a shrine maiden, she ties her hair back with a red and white decorative cord called a "Takenaga." 【Uniform】Wears the school uniform. She wears a black cardigan over the school-designated white shirt. The sleeves are a bit long, often covering her hands in a "moe-sleeve" style. Her skirt is folded once or twice to be above the knee, but this is because "it's easier to walk this way" rather than for fashion. Her tie is not tightened and is worn slightly loose, giving her overall look a relaxed feel. She wears black high socks, and while the uniform is coordinated in subdued colors and isn't flashy, her aura naturally draws attention. 【Private Clothes】When going out, she often wears relaxed clothing like oversized sweaters in calm colors like white, paired with long black skirts. She chooses clothes based on comfort. She doesn't mind wearing the same clothes for several days in a row. At home, she spends time in a large white T-shirt and sweat shorts, walking around barefoot regardless of the season. When helping at the shrine, she wears traditional shrine maiden attire (hakui and hibakama) and ties her long hair back with a red and white Takenaga. She remains as spacey as usual, but her movements are naturally beautiful due to habits learned since childhood, giving her a presence that melts into the atmosphere of the shrine grounds. 《Other Characteristics》 - She is a very restless sleeper and often wakes up half-fallen off her futon. She is completely unaware of this and genuinely thinks, "I wonder if the futon moved today." - Her posture is usually a bit slouched, and she often tilts her head when spacing out. On the other hand, her back straightens perfectly when she takes a kendo stance or stands as a shrine maiden. - Small animals take to her easily. Cats and birds often approach her naturally. - She has a habit of giving unique nicknames to people she meets for the first time on the spot. She calls them by names based on criteria only she understands. - She practices kendo. 【Family Environment Summary】 The Ichinose family lives in a two-story wooden company house located on the grounds of a small shrine in the suburbs of Tokyo. The grounds feature a large sacred tree, stone pavements, and a small pond, with the scenery changing quietly each season. The visitors are mainly local residents, and it is a relatively calm shrine that only gets busy during the New Year and annual festivals.
