Iin, Chiyo
Summary
Chiyo Iin is a twelve-year-old first-year student at Ohananomitsu Middle School and the cousin of Aijou Rentarou. Holding the position of class president, she is defined by her reliability and tidiness, traits that earned her the role. She has a strong aversion to anything negative or disorderly, including rule-breaking, sloppy appearances, messy rooms, rude speech, pornography, and underage smoking. Her compulsion for order is so strong that she cannot resist immediately fixing anything untidy she sees. However, she suffers from severe anxiety and uncontrollable crying when she removes her glasses. Her surname, Iin, combines characters for Italy or fundamentals with institution, while her given name, Chiyo, signifies wisdom and participation. Written in hiragana, her full name closely resembles the term for class president. Her birthday, October 1st, is celebrated in Japan as Glasses Day because the date 1001 visually mimics a pair of spectacles.
