Honami Ichinose

Honami Ichinose is a student and the class representative of class 1-B.

Appearance
Honami is a teenage girl of average height with blue eyes and strawberry blonde hair that reaches down her back. She possesses an extremely well-endowed figure which is considered highly attractive by her classmates as well as a source to Suzune Horikita's jealousy.

She is often seen wearing the school's standard uniform, but her clothing of choice varies depending on the context. When outside of school, she was wearing a white frilly shirt and blue pants. At the swimming pool, she wore a bikini with her top tied in a ribbon knot. During the survival test, she wore a red tracksuit with a white shirt beneath it.

Personality
Honami appears to possess a kind heart that extends to those of the lower classes, unlike many other students. This was seen when she prevented a brawl between class 1-C's students and one from class 1-D. Her kindness has also allowed her to become friends with Kikyō Kushida and Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, despite being students of D-Class. Even while she rejected the romantic feelings of an admirer who was also a friend of hers, she held back from using harsh words and still hoped to remain friends afterwards. She appeared to keep her word after Kiyotaka helped her, replying that she owed him a favour for his actions and continued to help him by gathering evidence to prove Ken's innocence. Honami even assisted Kiyotaka in saving Airi Sakura though she was under no obligation to do so, showing her generosity.

She is rather humble in spite of her talents and beauty while being not all boastful about it but remains level-headed and speaks to all her peers in the same way.

She appears to have a trusting side as she went as far asking Kiyotaka, who she just met if he would pretend to be her boyfriend as a way to help her solve the relationship issue she had.

She enjoys teasing people, as shown when she brought up Airi's close relationship and romantic affections for Kiyotaka (despite once asking him to pretend to be her boyfriend), though it was shown to be all in good fun, as afterwards her own close relationship with Kiyotaka was mentioned she simply smiled. In the light novels, she also enjoys teasing Kiyotaka by flirting with him but it's in good fun as well.

She rarely gets mad, although when the situation called for it, she adopted a serious side to herself which was shown when she reprimanded Kakeru Ryūen and students of C-Class in their bullying of Ken Sudō and they complied without protest. This side of her was seen again when she helped Kiyotaka to apprehend a man who was attempting to assault Airi and gave the man a look of disgust for his actions.

She is somewhat shy, as after getting a love letter from her friend Chihiro Shiranami, she admitted she had no idea of what it meant to be a couple with someone or how to let a person down without hurting them. This showed that she has not yet experienced any romantic situations and does not know how to face them but it is unknown as to whether or not she ever had a romantic interest in someone. This shyness was seen again when she hesitated in talking about the growth of her breast size to Suzune Horikita after she was asked about her chest.

She has an insightful side to her, as she recognized the true intelligence of Kiyotaka and saw that he is someone who shouldn't be in D-Class. However, having enough consideration, didn't push the issue when he didn't seem like talking about it. This inquisitive side was seen again as she would ponder on why he hid his talents when on the cruise. She appeared to notice Airi's romantic affections towards Kiyotaka since Airi nervously stating that she tagged along with them to the swimming pool because Kiyotaka invited her, and was seen nervously trying to come up with an excuse. She seems rather secretive as she was quick to reclaim her phone when Kiyotaka noticed the amount of points she possessed. This was seen again as she spoke to Ryūji Kanzaki and hid her phone before talking to him about points though she was vague on her query.

Abilities
She is skilled in many fields be it academics, athleticism, and communication but in spite of her skills, Honami is not all jaded but instead humbled and down to earth. Through unknown means, she has acquired plenty of points which caused Kiyotaka Ayanokōji to question how she obtained them. She has a very good relationship with her classmates and teachers, becoming well trusted.

Academic Abilities
She is very intelligent as she is in one of the upper classes, which only those with she once formed a study group with some of her classmates and they were able to make passing scores on a quiz. It was mentioned that she could have easily ascended to A-Class but an unknown event stopped her.

Physical Abilities
Not much is known about her physical capabilities, though it is mentioned that she is very skilled in athletics. A glimpse of her skill was shown at the pool, where she played volleyball with her friends and students of D-Class.

Plot
Honami aws first seen listening to the speech of Manabu Horikita when he welcomed the first year students to the school. She was next seen walking through the school store with Chihiro Shiranami before spotting Kikyō Kushida, waving at her as they walked past one another. When this was questioned by Kiyotaka Ayanokōji who remarked that she was in B-Class, Kikyō responded that she and Honami became friends the day before, stating it was her goal to become friends with everyone even if they're from a different class

Honami is next seen breaking up the brawl between Kakeru Ryūen with a few students of C-Class and Ken Sudō of D-Class. Though her involvement was ill received by the boys, they complied with her order of stopping after she threatened to get security. Kakeru and his group left while she told Ken not to let Kakeru get to him before calming the spectators down and going about her business.

Honami next appeared in her class where the homeroom teacher, who was suffering from a hangover, told them they would receive points the next day. Honami and her friends celebrated this news and as she was hugged by her friends she voiced her intentions of the class becoming part of D-Class. The next day, Honami soon greets Kikyō and formally meets Kiyotaka after briefly questioning if they were a couple and after being told they weren't, asked whether they received points, causing the pair to ponder over the situation. Afterwards, Honami called for Kiyotaka to meet her outside the school where she explained that she needed his help, thinking someone might ask her out. Due to her inexperience with romantic relations and a lack of interest in the admirer, Honami asked him to pretend to be her boyfriend after she received a love letter. Kiyotaka refused, stating how it would be better telling the person the truth while she begs him as she didn't know how to answer the confession but her friend shows up and sees them together. When asked what relationship they had, Honami tried "confirming" they were a couple but Kiyotaka answered that he and Honami were simply friends, surprising her. He left telling her to talk it out with that person due to the courage she worked up to confess her feelings, veaing Honami amazed by his wisdom and pondered over it.

Following his advice, Honami decided to be honest with Chihiro and did her best to let her down gently as she revealed that she was not interested in her romantically. Honami and Chihiro both decided they could go back to being friends, although despite their agreement, Chihiro ran off crying as Honami met up with Kiyotaka. She explained to him what happened before apologizing for dragging him into the mess but while he told her it was alright she promised that she would owe him a favour. She is then seen approaching Kikyō asking if they were investigating Ken's case after hearing rumours about it. She offered her aid as Kikyō thanked her but Kiyotaka tried to intervene, confused by her actions, but she stated she was not up to anything and reminded him that she owed him a favour, slyly winking at him. The display gained attention from Kikyō and the other students who wondered why exactly Honami owed Kiyotaka.

Honami and Ryūji Kanzaki put up a bulletin board to gain information about the three boys that were supposedly attacked by Ken. They showed this to Kiyotaka as they received some helpful clues about Ken's fight and deduced that it may have been a set-up to frame him. When she tried to pay the source of the message, she saw that it was anonymous and became unsure of what to do until Kiyotaka volunteered to help. She then went up to him (unconsciously pushing her chest on his arm) and he paid the source himself but noticed her unusually high amount of points, causing her to put away her phone and walk off, still promising to help.

Sometime afterwards, Honami was asked to lend Kiyotaka points for a task he helped Suzune with and promised to pay her back after it was finished. Honami found out about the plan and found herself amazed by Kiyotaka's intelligence and wondered how he landed in D-Class, but Kiyotaka said it was Suzune's plan and gave her a vague answer about his intelligence. She noticed that he didn't want to talk about it and smiled at his answer before he got a call from Airi Sakura who was in danger. Honami and Kiyotaka gathered a security team and found Airi as she was being assaulted by a crazed stalker. The stalker attempted to flee but Honami blocked him as the police took him away. She waved goodbye to Airi and Kiyotaka and joined the police in handling the matter.

She later hung out at the pool with some of her class and students of D-Class. In the changing room, she is questioned by Suzune about the growth of her breast size, which she barely answered. Honami then started to tease Airi in a playful manner for her close relationship and romantic affections towards Kiyotaka, after Airi nervously explained that she came just because Kiyotaka invited her. Honami then stopped right after Kikyō mentioned her own close relationship with him, to which she smiled about it, showing that she has no problem with it. She soon played volleyball with some of the students though is put off by the strangeness of the D-Class students such as Ken Sudō, Kanji Ike and Haruki Yamauchi. Soon afterwards, she bore witness to Suzune's speech to everyone at the pool becoming somewhat surprised by the development.

During the cruise, both her and her homeroom teacher Chie Hoshinomiya got a massage together and discussed students they should watch out for while Honami is put off by her teacher's erratic behaviour. When her teacher suggested looking out for Kiyotaka as one of those students, she seemed to see her teacher is right about watching Kiyotaka and wondered why he hides his amazing capabilities.

After the ship arrived on a Deserted Island, she and her class set up camp on a beach. She allowed a student of C-Class to join them after he was expelled from his own camp. Very soon, she showed Kiyotaka and Suzune around the camp before giving them supplies for their camp and explained the student from D-Class after Suzune pointed him out. She then went to help her class with the camp, bidding her company goodbye as she went off.

She is next with Ryūji when they find the camp for C-Class abandoned. They were joined by Kiyotaka and Airi who were scouting the forest, but ended up at the beach. Honami bemoaned the fact that she didn't get the chance to discover C-Class' leader while Ryūji tells her what the purpose of the test is, agreeing with him. Honami is then asked by Kiyotaka of what she knew about Kōhei Katsuragi and she informed him of his status as one of A-Class' leaders besides Arisu Sakayanagi even detailing how there appeared to be a leadership conflict between the pair.
