The protagonist and a freshman at Nashiba High School, whose dreams of playing in their boys' basketball team took a heartbreaking blow when the team was meted out a year-long suspension for its captain allegedly hitting on their adviser's daughter, a sixth-grade schoolgirl.

Cquote2
Cquote1

 Voiced by: Kana Hanazawa

Cquote2

Keishin's star female basketball player who, ironically, has misgivings about her skill.


  • A-Cup Angst: Feels rather uneasy about her bust size, and gets teased about it by her teammates from time to time.
  • Adaptational Badass: Appears as a playable character in the crossover Fighting Game Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax, with her basketball team as Assist Characters.
  • All of the Other Reindeer: Her obsession with winning has cost her friends back at her previous school.
  • Beauty Mark: Below her left eye.
  • Broken Ace: Very skilled in basketball, able to take boys her age head-on and win...and has lost many friends from her previous school because of her over-competitiveness.
  • Determinator: Accepts Mihoshi's 50-consecutive-jumpshot challenge and goes to great lengths to achieve it, in order to convince Subaru to continue coaching the team.
  • Force and Finesse: The Finesse to Maho's Force.
  • The Heroine: The most experienced player and de facto team captain.
  • I Just Want to Have Friends: ...Even if it means giving up her favorite sport. Subaru helps her balance out friendships and basketball.
  • I Know Madden Kombat: In Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax: her fighting style is based on her position as captain of her basketball team, as she throws basketballs as projectiles, or passing them to her partners for varied attacks. One of her supers is a reference to her scoop shot signature move, as she catches her opponent into a basketball, dribbles and throws him/her high above, all while wings sprout from her back.
  • Lightning Bruiser: She's a beast on the hardcourt. Too bad she's prone to calling plays out loud.
  • Mentor Ship: Her friends ship her with Subaru.
  • Nice Girl
  • One-Girl Army: Defeats the boys' basketball team all by herself.
  • Power Gives You Wings: She sprouted wings from her back when she performed the Scoop Shot for the first time during their official match against the 5th graders.
  • Precocious Crush: Out of all the girls, she is the one closest to Subaru, after he vows to protect her dream of playing basketball.
  • Rose-Haired Girl
  • Signature Move: The Scoop Shot, learned from Subaru.

An energetic blonde kid from a rich family.


Cquote1

 She's very optimistic and tries to think that it's a mistake.

Cquote2
  • Power Blonde
  • Primal Fear: The dark.
  • Spoiled Sweet
  • Took A Level In Badass: In the first season, she was very prone to committing errors due to her impulsiveness. Come the second season, she turned out to be about just as good as Tomoka, even going as far as completely shutting Rena down when the entire 5th grade team could barely keep up with her.

 Height: ~170cm (~5'7", credited as SECRET)

Cquote2
Cquote1

 Voiced by: Rina Hidaka

Cquote2

An unusually tall, busty girl with issues concerning her figure.


  • The Big Girl: After some training courtesy of Aoi, she eventually fills this role for the team.
  • Big Sister Mentor/Friendly Rivalry: To Aya Miyakoouji of Suzuridani.
  • Force and Finesse: The Finesse to the Force of most of the Center players in the series. With her size, she could easily have been the Force, but her shy personality and training from Aoi, herself the Finesse to her middle school opponents' Force, cemented her as the Finesse. Demonstrated in her match against her opponent from Ryuichi's gang.
  • Fragile Flower/Shrinking Violet
  • Gag Boobs
  • Gentle Giant
  • Glass Cannon/Stone Wall: Her size makes her an ideal center, but she's so anxious about her size and does not like getting hit on the court. It took a Secret Test of Character from Aoi to help her overcome these problems and prepare her into her best-suited role.
  • Heroic Second Wind: Pulls one after a pep talk from her big brother Banri to utterly destroy the opposing center from Ryuichi's gang.
  • Huge Schoolgirl: As tall as Subaru, point in fact.
  • Ms. Fanservice/Innocent Fanservice Girl: Easily has the best figure of the entire cast (Aoi and Nayu included), and hence falls victim to majority of the show's fanservice humor.
  • Nice Girl
  • Precocious Crush: Has one towards Subaru, like Tomoka.
  • Tender Tears: Tends to cry a lot.
  • Took A Level In Badass: After being pushed around by Suzuridani's starting center in the first season, she utterly outplayed her in their official match in the second season.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Suffers from aquaphobia (fear of water) after an incident when she fell off a boat and nearly drowned in a lake, rendering her unable to swim. Subaru, Aoi, and Airi's teammates help her cope with it.
  • Younger Than She Looks: For a twelve-year-old she's already slightly shorter than Subaru himself. She is also the eldest of the five.

 Jersey Number: 8

Cquote2
Cquote1

 Position: Point Guard -> Shooting Guard -> Small Forward

 Position: Assistant Coach (Forward-Center as a player)

Cquote2
Cquote1

 Height: 163 cm (5'4")

Cquote2
Cquote1

 Voiced by: Kanae Ito

Cquote2

Subaru's childhood friend and prospective manager of their school's boys' basketball team. She later enters the team as the coach of the 5th grade team.


  • Childhood Friends: With Subaru.
  • Cute Sports Club Manager: She wanted to be this for her school's boys' basketball team (of course, Subaru's presence has nothing to do with it), long before the scandal that caused the team to be given a year-long ban.
  • Cool Big Sis: Becomes this to the five main girls after becoming a confidant to Subaru's double life.
  • Force and Finesse: The Finesse to her middle school opponents' Force. Since she is smaller than most center players, she couldn't muscle her way towards the basket like traditional Centers. She got by in middle school through using guard moves that allow her to use her speed advantage to blow past bigger opponents.
  • He Is Not My Boyfriend: Her reaction to anyone insinuating that something's going on between her and Subaru.
  • Innocent Fanservice Girl: By way of accidentally flaunting her panties every time she kicks.
  • Kick Chick: And Subaru is usually on the receiving end for whenever she perceives him doing something indecent.
  • Panty Shot: A lot, featuring perwinkle-and-white striped panties.
  • Tsundere: Type A, especially towards Subaru.
  • You Gotta Have Blue Hair

Cquote1

 Height: 160 cm (5'3")

Cquote2
Cquote1

 Voiced by: Asami Seto

Cquote2

Hina's younger sister. She eventually joins the girls basketball team with four other 5th grade girls.


  • Badass on Paper: Stated to be Keishin's marathon champion in the first season, but gets tired just as quickly as everyone else in the 5th grade team in the second season. Justified in that basketball training may be much more grueling than running in a marathon.
  • The Big Girl: Of the 5th grade team.
  • Big Little Sister: She is easily One Head Taller than her older sister Hinata at 160 cm.
  • Force and Finesse: The Force to Airi's Finesse. Her inborn athleticism (at par or even better than Maho's) more than makes up for her lack of size for the Center position.
  • Lightning Bruiser: Although shorter than Airi, she's still pretty big for her age (160 cm at age 11). She makes up for her lack of size for the Center position with higher stamina, foot speed, and leaping ability.
  • My Greatest Failure: Fell asleep one snowy day alone at home, only to find out later that Hinata lay freezing and unconscious outside all this time, which she believed to have resulted in her sister's frail constitution.
  • Rose-Haired Girl
