Kanzashi Sarashiki

Kanzashi Sarashiki is a first-year student at the IS Academy in Class Four, younger sister of the Student Council President Tatenashi Sarashiki and another IS Representative Candidate of Japan along with Houki. She is the seventh and the last main heroine which appears in the story. Kanzashi looks Věry much like Tatenashi, has blue hair and dark red eyes like her older sister. In oppose to Tatenashi, Kanzashi's hair curls inwards and is slightly longer, and has more petite body compared to her. Her IS Academy uniform consists of the typical white and red blouse but is modified with two triangular hairpins on both sides of her head (right and left) and yellow leggings with larger hairpins on sides on her skirt and knee-long black boots. She also wears a pair of glasses. Kanzashi is the polar opposite of Tatenashi; while her older sister is cheerful, talkative and very straight forward, Kanzashi is far more serious, reserved and somehow shy. She is also a hikikomori, spending most of her free time under a blanket in her room watching anime. She is a huge fan of anime and idolizes anime heroes. She was initially very reluctant to team up with Ichika, due to company being forced to work on his IS instead of making her own, but opened up to him after a large amount of persuasion. Her withdrawn nature is largely thanks to an inferiority complex she feels towards her sister; due to Tatenashi being better than her at pretty much everything, Kanzashi is deeply insecure and often keeps her distance from her sister, a trait she shares with Houki Shinonono. Upon learning that Ichika helping her out and offering to team up with her was an order he got from Tatenashi, Kanzashi was shocked and got sent into a state of depression until Ichika snapped her out of it. After the fight with the Golem, Kanzashi learns that nobody is perfect and that everyone makes mistakes, finally gaining the courage to reconcile with her older sister. While Kanzashi's personality is largely different from her older sister, they do share a similar sense of humor and cunning. This is shown during the Live Cosplay Changing Race when Kanzashi put in a highly revealing Princess Knight outfit among the outfits and got Laura to wear it, knowing she wouldn't want to race while wearing something so embarrassing. She also snuck into the second year bath under the guise of caring for her sister in order to keep tabs on her feelings for Ichika and to plan a way around it. Originally, Kanzashi wasn't one to resort to violence without a good reason. Her older sister was surprised to hear that Kanzashi slapped Ichika, despite knowing she had a grudge against him. After she started spending more time with the other personal IS pilots, she began picking up on their habit of taking out their anger on Ichika whenever he's gets too close to another girl (although she far less savage compare to them), much to his misfortune.
