Appearance

Chie Hoshinomiya's appearance.

Chie is a young adult woman of average height with chest-length light-brown hair that is curled at the bottom with bangs hanging on the right side, purple eyes and a slim but well-endowed body.

Background

Some time ago, Chie was attending Advanced Nurturing High School. She became friends with Sae Chabashira.

Personality

Chie is a friendly class teacher who also likes drinking as she often appears in school with a hangover.

In spite of her quirks, she appears to be insightful as she recognized the potential of students from class 1-D who could advance such as Kiyotaka Ayanokōji, who she never met (anime only), may present a problem for her class based on what Ichinose told her about him. She has an eye for talent as she has been keeping a close eye on Kiyotaka and know that he is hiding his true capabilities. She is also not afraid of saying her discontent openly and complained that her class situation and their leader is failing the expected standard and admits that they aren’t capable of reaching Class A.

In the manga, she also assumed him to be popular in his class, due to his good looks.

In the light novel, it is revealed that she has a flirty personality, like the type of woman who breaks up when the relationship gets too deep. This disposition was more highlighted when she tried to flirt and tease Kiyotaka Ayanokōji by telling him that she would have fallen for him if he had been in her class.

She has a realistic outlook on life and isn’t afraid to voice her discontent to others. She expresses her disappointment and dissatisfaction with the state of her class and admits to the other teachers that she has no hope in them to reach Class-A. Thus, she said she has given up but made it clear to Sae that she won’t allow her class to reach Class-A as well, due to her personal vendetta she held since they were in school, much to the latter's annoyance.

In Episode 8, Chie is getting a massage with Honami Ichinose and behaves rather oddly. She calmed down and they discussed students of each class they should watch out for.

In Light Novel Volume 4, it is revealed that Chie had intentionally put Honami in the Rabbit group, instead of the customary Dragon group, which is for class representatives like her, in order to investigate Kiyotaka and keep an eye on him.

Later, in February, Chie is shown to flirt with Kiyotaka by running up to him and holding his hand one morning, and exclaiming that the environment of the school was relationship-friendly, since the dorms were singly occupied, causing students to be less apprehensive about meeting in secret, and said that an inter-class relationship would be very dramatic, which she liked, however she stops talking after Sae finds them.

In Volume 11, she points out how Ayanokōuji Kiyotaka had been hiding his abilities and says that she doesn't dislike students like him but would end up hating him the most if he were to be her enemy. She confronts him by enumerating his feats such as, being able to solve the tenth question during the flash mental arithmetic which stumped even the teachers, being able to fight on equal footing with Arisu Sakayanagi of Class 1-A, solving the hardest questions in the written test and running extremely fast. She questioned if he’s hiding his true abilities but decided to leave the matter alone for the moment. She flirtatiously said he could cry on her chest, if he felt depress from his lost against Arisu but was ignored.

In Year 2 Volume 3, she stops Ayanokōuji Kiyotaka at a task site and interrogates him about his math score and asks him if he was willing transfer to her class via the use of 20 Million Private Points and said that he would be exceptionally valuable. She was also disenchanted and dissatisfied at the state of her class whom she thought were capable enough to reach Class A. She openly shared her discontent about it but was sadden when Kiyotaka acted indifferent to her words and told her that it was her job to advance her class. She also revealed that it was the first time the class she undertook became Class C and lately been despondent due to it.
