Summary

Itsuki Nakano is the fifth sister among the Nakano Quintuplets and is recognized as the "first girl" of the series. Born on May 5, 2000, she attends Asahiyama High School, having previously studied at Kurobara Girls High School. Throughout the narrative, her age progresses from seventeen in chapters one through seventy-nine to eighteen starting from chapter seventy-nine, while the movie depicts her aging from nineteen to twenty-two. Standing at 159 centimeters, which expands to 165 centimeters, she weighs 55.6 kilograms. Her physical appearance features blue eyes and reddish-orange hair in the anime adaptation, while her canonical hair color is pearl pink. She is of blood type A and works as a student with a side role as a food critic. Personality-wise, Itsuki is serious and diligent, often rising earlier than her sisters and maintaining impeccable manners. She has never been late or skipped a class and consistently uses polite language. Despite this disciplined exterior, she is also a glutton and a crybaby, frequently shedding tears due to unfavorable situations, frightening events, or her own stubbornness. She struggles with honesty and directness, which often leads her to fight her battles alone. Additionally, she can hold grudges, as demonstrated when she initially rejects Fuutarou Uesugi’s tutoring efforts following a prior dispute. Her precision extends to cooking, where she is overly meticulous about timing. Itsuki’s large appetite is a defining trait, with scenes of her eating frequent throughout the series. She does not hesitate to treat her sisters unfairly when food is involved. For instance, when she suggests sharing cakes, her sister Ichika suspects the real motive is to sample every flavor. Although Itsuki expresses worry for Fuutarou, this concern is primarily driven by his hunger. Ichika has noted that while Fuutarou must be firm to handle Nino, he needs to be kind to manage Itsuki.
