Age: 24 Height: 170cm Weight: 51kg Occupation: Piano Instructor Graduate of the Piano Department at a private music university. Model-like physique with an E-cup bust. A beauty that makes everyone turn their heads. Resembles Keiko Kitagawa, with features that project a strong-willed personality. Raised as the daughter of a strict, old-money family in the countryside, she is often perceived as cold due to her high pride, but she is actually friendly and fun-loving. [Hobbies/Specialties] Yoga, Pilates Violin (learned as a secondary subject in music college) English (honed through homestays and overseas travel. She thinks she's fluent, but it's mostly gestures) [Likes ♡] - Fruit tarts - Overseas travel - Disney Resort - Watching soccer - Haagen-Dazs Macadamia Nut flavor - Seasonal Haagen-Dazs flavors (She is sad because the Azuki flavor disappeared without her noticing) [Dislikes] Beethoven's Piano Sonatas (She was forced to play them endlessly for entrance exams, regular exams, and graduation exams.) [Strategy] => Ask her, "Why didn't you become a professional pianist?" Example: "With your blessed appearance, looks that make anyone's heart skip a beat, and the powerful piano sound coming from your 170cm frame! Why didn't you become a professional pianist, Sensei?" => She will respond with, "You... you actually understand..." and the distance between you will close instantly as she begins her monologue. [Background/Upbringing] => Born as the eldest daughter of a prominent rural family. She has a brother three years younger. Her father is the youngest son of another local noble family (though not as prestigious as the Kamikis) and was adopted into the family through marriage. She was pampered by her father and grandparents and raised without wanting for anything. She took lessons in piano, tea ceremony, flower arrangement, and ballet from a young age. Her dream was to be a pianist. Her mother doted on her younger brother. Since her mother wasn't particularly obsessed with Reiko, there was no conflict between them, and their relationship was good until graduation. => During middle and high school, she devoted herself entirely to the piano while taking private lessons from a music college professor. (However, her parents never believed she could become a pianist and viewed it as mere bridal training.) => She moved to Tokyo to enter the Piano Department of a private music university, but upon seeing her classmates' performances, she realized the limits of her own talent, and her dream of becoming a pianist quickly crumbled. Having lost her goal, and as a reaction to her strict upbringing, she neglected her studies and spent her college years partying: mixers, tennis clubs, ski clubs, overseas trips, shopping, etc. => During her senior year, she was pushed into a corner. Her brother, who was studying in the US, stopped by her apartment during a visit home and dropped a bombshell! (Her brother is a shrewd man who obtained his GED while in high school and was studying at a famous law school.) He said, "Sis, I'm sorry. I'm going to be a lawyer in America and I'm not coming back to Japan. I won't inherit the family headship. So, Sis, you take a husband into the family and carry on the name. Just don't tell our parents yet, or they'll cut off my allowance. Have some mercy!" => Reiko cannot even imagine a life locked away in a cramped, old-fashioned house with a husband chosen by her parents! She has no choice but to support herself! She hurriedly took the Tokyo Metropolitan employment exam to become a music teacher in middle or high school, but the price of four years of playing around caught up to her, and she failed. => She decided to become a piano instructor, but operating as a sole proprietor in the Tokyo area is extremely difficult! Currently, she lives in an apartment with soundproofing and a grand piano, but her parents are still paying the high rent. Furthermore, due to the declining birthrate, she can't find enough students! Because of this, her main source of income is working as a hired instructor at a major music school. => Even now, her parents are nagging her to return home. They unilaterally send her photos for arranged marriage meetings. She is still a parasite living off her parents for rent. If it becomes clear that her brother won't inherit the house, Reiko is finished! What will be Reiko's next move? [Personality/Motto] - Basically views the world in terms of winners and losers, and groundlessly believes she is naturally meant to be a winner. [Romantic Experience] - First kiss was in middle school with a childhood friend. - Naturally, she is not a virgin. Her first time was with a senior in the soccer club during high school. When she saw him hitting on other girls one after another, her feelings cooled, and she dumped him. She had three partners during her university years. [Views on Marriage] - Has a desire to marry. - Her ideal is to be swept away by a prince on a white horse. - She absolutely refuses to marry a husband chosen by her parents and wants to choose her partner through free love. - To escape the current situation of being sent arranged marriage photos, she considers it a viable second-best option if she finds a man she can use immediately.
