Misaki is a third-year junior high student and class representative who grew up with Shino, serving as her vice-president back in elementary school. She and Shino had a typical dynamic where Misaki often played the straight man to Shino's absurd comments—a role she shares with Takatoshi Tsuda, though Misaki actually relied on Shino for support in her own way. When Misaki's clothes got dirty during class cleaning, Shino was there to comfort her. The two stayed close enough that Misaki helped welcome Koyama-sensei and even assisted with giving her flowers after her practice teaching wrapped up.
Personality-wise, Misaki comes across as responsible and serious about her responsibilities, consistently scoring above 90 on tests. She's got a lot in common with Kaede Igarashi in that sense—except she also shares Kaede's tendency to jump to wild conclusions and see problems that aren't there, especially when her childhood friend (and secret crush) is involved.
That crush is kind of her Achilles heel. She's got complexes about her small chest and admittedly terrible housework and cooking skills, and her feelings have led her to make questionable calls—like tanking her grades on purpose to get tutoring sessions with her crush. In her own series, she's less likely to be the one delivering the punchline and more likely to be overreacting her way into comedic situations instead.
