Konomi used to drift through life as a puzzle enthusiast without any real direction—good at solving games, but lacking actual ambition. Rock climbing changed that. She found something that actually made her want to push herself, and as the challenges piled up, so did her resilience. Facing real fear and real difficulty transformed how she saw herself; climbing didn't just become a hobby, it became personal growth.
She approaches climbing the same way she did puzzles: like a mental game. Routes are problems to solve, and she gets a genuine rush from figuring out the physics and technique, then executing it with her body. When she's in that zone, analyzing every hold and movement, she can slip into an almost meditative state—pure focus driven by excitement.
The Sports Climbing Club at Hanamiya Girls has meant everything to her. It's not just a team; it's where she discovered parts of herself she didn't know existed, and where she's literally and figuratively reached higher than she ever thought possible. She genuinely belongs there.
