Hououji, Akane
Seiyuu / Dub
Summary
Akane Hououji is a 19-year-old, later turning 20 by Chapter 85, who stands 160cm tall with an AB blood type and a December 1 birthday. While her natural hair color is black, she dyed it blonde after leaving home, adopting a new style that features hair cropped just above her shoulders with bangs covering the left side. She has blue eyes and typically dresses in casual attire, such as track jackets, hoodies, and t-shirts when at home. Her preferences include concerts, cheap candy, and the coffee brewed by Hayato’s grandmother, while she dislikes concert MCs, waking up early, and ghosts. Initially appearing cold and aloof, Akane is regarded as the most mature member of her friend group. She usually avoids silly antics in favor of observing others, though she occasionally engages by lightly teasing her friends, particularly Hayato. Although she maintains a calm demeanor and rarely shows her emotions openly, she blushes easily when complimented by Hayato and makes efforts to conceal it. Akane is also highly perceptive and skilled at reading other people. Her reserved nature vanishes when performing music as the guitarist and lead vocalist for her band, where she sings with such passion that it won over Hayato. She is also a talented songwriter who enjoys composing in the quiet privacy of the Café after hours. The other girls have noted that Akane has become more sociable and less stand-offish since they first met her.
