Chihiro Shiranami

Chihiro Shiranami (白波 千尋) is one of the students of class 1-B. She had a crush on Honami Ichinose but was later turned down after her confession.

Appearance
A teenage girl of average height with short blonde hair and bluish violet eyes. She is often seen wearing the standard school uniform but has been seen wearing a bikini while hanging out at the pool.

Personality
Chihiro greatly admires her friend Honami Ichinose and is not afraid to admit it. Chihiro possesses a romantic interest in Honami and wrote a love letter to confess her feelings to her. She was jealous when she saw her with Kiyotaka Ayanokōji and as the latter struggled to answer what they were but was relieved that they were simply friends.

She can be emotional as she was heartbroken and ran off crying when Honami rejected her confession even though both girls promised to go back to being friends the next day.

It appears she has overcome this as she hung out with Honami with no problem.

Plot
Chihiro is first seen walking through the school store with Honami Ichinose as they bump into Kikyō Kushida and Kiyotaka Ayanokōji. Ichinose waves at Kushida as the two walked past them with Chihiro continuing her walk with Ichinose.

Chihiro is next seen in the class, speaking with her teacher who was suffering from a hangover and remarks on how she smells like alcohol. The class then received the news that they passed their recent tests. Chihiro is so excited that she hugs onto Ichinose stating she is happy to be in the same class as her.

Sometime later, Chihiro wrote a love letter to Ichinose to confess her feelings for her, placing it in her locker. She went to the designated spot only to be met with surprise when she found Ichinose with Kiyotaka Ayanokōji. Chihiro tearfully asked if they were a "couple", as a nervous Ichinose tried to answer but Ayanokōji answered first by stating they were just friends to Chihiro's relief. She then watched as Ayanokōji told Ichinose to be honest with her answer to Chihiro over her confession since it was a lot of strength to build up, before leaving the two girls to talk. Chihiro and Ichinose spoke with each other until the latter ultimately rejected her feelings as she did not feel the same way but the two promised to go back to being friends. Chihiro then ran off from the area in tears at her feelings being rejected while Ayanokōji looked after her.

Chihiro was later seen going to the pool and hanging out with a majority of her class.
