Nanako
Nanako is a cheerful, kindhearted high school girl with an unusual way of expressing herself—she communicates through senryuu, a form of haiku poetry, instead of speaking aloud. Her outgoing personality and tendency to wear her emotions openly means her feelings (particularly for Eiji Busujima) frequently slip out in poetic form, creating awkward moments for both of them.
What makes Nanako stand out is how genuinely she cares about the people around her, though her unconventional method of communication often works against her. Fans note that her bubbly nature and earnest attempts to connect with others through verse create most of the story's charm and comedy.
