Summary
Kikuno Asahina, who debuted in Chapter 23 of the manga and Episode 3 of the anime, serves as the secretary for the Student Council at Kaimei High School. Born on February 15, 1993, she stands 163cm tall with a slender build of 47kg and possesses type O blood. Her black hair is typically styled in a high ponytail that reaches her mid-back when let loose, and she is almost always seen wearing glasses. Shinohara notes that she owns five pairs with different colored frames, though the anime depicts them as red without an official designation. Interestingly, she can see perfectly well without them, as evidenced when she lent a pair to Michiru. Often described by Switch as the embodiment of cool and calm, Asahina maintains an intimidating aura regardless of her actual emotions. She has a tendency to make harsh facial expressions even when she is sad or embarrassed. When upset, she frequently clutches and mutters into a plush toy, revealing a fondness for collecting stuffed animals from Marronnier Mania, where she works part-time. Despite her tough exterior, she dislikes asking for help, a trait that has caused her trouble in the past. This has improved slightly as she now occasionally seeks assistance from Tsubaki. She is prone to self-blame and hates seeing others get hurt. Asahina has an unusual habit of destroying items that irritate her, which often requires the other Student Council members to restrain her. She also has a tendency to poke people in the eyes when she is angry, irritated, or embarrassed. She dislikes Otaku culture, a stance that contrasts with her own hobbies. During the Kaimei Rock Festival, she performs as the bass guitarist for the Student Council Band. Her nickname "Daisy" is derived from the kanji combination of her surname and first name, forming Hinagiku, which translates to daisy.
