In this article, we will introduce the characters that appear in the "Non Non Biyori" series.
Character Introduction 1: Miyauchi Renge
Renge is the heroine of this story. She is a first-grader and the youngest at Asahioka Branch School, where the story takes place. She has long silver hair in twin tails, and for an elementary school student, she has little emotion and a unique sensibility. She has a strange side to her, such as adding "non," "n," or "nan" to the end of her sentences and greeting people with "nyanpasu," and she is often not understood by those around her.
She has excellent grades
But Renge is actually an excellent student. She always gets 100 points on her tests and gets all A's on her report cards. She is also a genius, and is good at drawing, winning a gold prize in an illustration contest.
Detailed Profile
Born on December 3rd, blood type B. The youngest of the three Miyauchi sisters, her nickname is "Renchon". She is also good at giving unusual nicknames to animals, and has named a raccoon dog "Ku", a Japanese crayfish "Oshio", and a cicada larva "Hitogura".
Character Introduction 2 Ichijo Hotaru
Ichijo Hotaru moved from Tokyo to the countryside, where the story takes place, due to her parents' work. She is in the fifth grade, but is quite mature for her age and is growing well, so much so that a neighbor gave her a photo of her for a matchmaking session. She is 164 cm tall and seems to be concerned about her height.
She loves Komari
She thinks that the small and young Komari is very cute and loves her. She even makes a lot of Komari dolls called "Komagurumi". At first, she seems to have a hard time dealing with Renge, who has a unique sensibility, but they gradually become good friends.
What kind of personality is she?
Hotaru is shy and quiet. Her special skills are general housework, such as laundry, cooking, and sewing. She is also good at studying, so she gets excellent test results. She is not good at sports, but she is strong and can't lose to anyone in arm wrestling.
She also has a surprisingly childlike side
Hotaru is generally calm in both appearance and personality, and is mature for her age, but she sometimes has a childlike, spoiled side. Born in Tokyo, she is interested in things from the countryside, and seems to enjoy catching bugs and making snow huts with her friends. Her nickname is "Hotarun."
Character Introduction 3: Koshigaya Natsumi
Koshigaya Natsumi is a first year junior high school student. She is Komari's younger sister and is a mood maker with a very bright personality. She is also a mischievous girl who loves to tease people (especially her older sister Komari), and even when scolded by her mother, she shows no sign of remorse. Although she can be a bit too mischievous at times, she is loved by everyone.
She's not good at studying
She doesn't seem to be good at studying at school, but she has a wide range of trivia knowledge and is naturally smart, so she is the quickest-witted of her friends. Of course, she has a childish personality, but she also has a gap in that she can be calm at times. By the way, it seems that she was a brocon in her childhood and said that she would marry her real brother (Taku). Now she treats him roughly, but they seem to get along well.
Character Introduction 4 Koshigaya Komari
Koshigaya Komari is Natsumi's older sister, a second-year junior high school student. She is shorter than her younger sister Komari, standing at less than 140 cm tall. She is self-conscious about her short height, and tries to appear more mature, worrying about her childishness. However, she is easily scared and has a childlike personality for her age. Her academic ability is about average. However, her grades sometimes drop and her mother gets angry at her. She seems to be good at guessing the answers to her questions on tests.
Tends to be spinning her wheels
Komari tends to be spinning her wheels and often gets the short end of the stick. She was the victim of her younger sister Natsumi's pranks, and when they went out together, she was mistaken for a lost child and taken to the lost child center. By the way, she is also bad at cooking, and the only thing she can make is rice balls, but she likes to make unnecessary arrangements. Although Komari is pitiful in many ways, she does have a sense of responsibility as an older person. By the way, Hotaru loves and likes her a lot, but it seems that she sometimes has mixed feelings when she sees her acting mature despite being younger than her. She also loves her teddy bear, Kokichi-san.
Nickname is "Koma-chan"
Everyone calls her "Koma-chan", but this is not because of her name "Komari", but because she is small. At first, she hated it, but no one stopped, so it stuck. By the way, only Hotaru calls her "senpai".
Character Introduction 5: Suguru Koshigaya
Suguru Koshigaya is a third-year junior high school student and the only male student at Asahigaoka Branch School. In fact, he has no lines in the story and is a character with little presence. He is ignored by his real sister Natsumi and others and is treated carelessly in various ways, but he doesn't particularly mind. By the way, he is good at playing instruments, such as guitar and piano.
What kind of character
He is 171 cm tall. He is characterized by his black-rimmed glasses. He has an otaku temperament, and has been seen making cat girl figures out of clay and going to "Kei○n" concerts. By the way, he is also good at cooking and can fillet fish in an instant. He is never called by name in the story, and his mother and teachers are called "Nii-chan". By the way, Renge calls her "Nii-nii".
Character Introduction 6: Miyauchi Kazuho
Miyauchi Kazuho is a teacher at Asahioka Branch School. She is 24 years old and is called "Kazu-nee", "Nee-nee" (Renge), and "Kazu-chan" (Yukiko). By the way, she is the real sister of the main character Renge, and she is in charge of all the students, including Renge. She has a laid-back personality and is unreliable, and often oversleeps, which is unusual for a teacher. Classes are basically self-study, so she often sleeps at the desk.
Character Introduction 7 Miyauchi Hikage
Miyauchi Hikage is Renge's older sister and a first-year high school student. She is a graduate of Asahioka Branch School. She is called "Hika-nee" and looks just like Renge, but unlike Renge, she has strong emotions. She left the countryside to attend high school in Tokyo, and every time she returns home, she tries to appeal to the city (?), but she can't seem to let go of her countryside roots. She is good friends with Natsumi, but she often gets into trouble.
Character Introduction 8 Kagayama Kaede
Kagayama Kaede is also a graduate and is 20 years old. He currently runs a candy store called "Kagaya". He has a boyish personality, speaks like a boy, and dresses in a rough, delinquent-like manner, so Renge mistakes him for a delinquent. However, he is very caring and is seen cooking for Renge and the others.
【Non Non Biyori】Character Introduction Summary!
The above is a summary of the characters that appear in "Non Non Biyori". Asahigaoka Branch School is home to a large number of unique and attractive characters. What makes it so appealing is that both students and teachers are free-spirited and respect each other's individuality. "Non Non Biyori Nonstop" is the third season of "Non Non Biyori", and it looks like we'll be able to see even more of Renge and her friends' laid-back daily lives. I'm really looking forward to it!
