Kasumi Nakasu

Kasumi Nakasu is one of the main characters of Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. She is a first year at Nijigasaki High School. Her image color is pastel yellow. She is a member of QU4RTZ, a unit under the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. Kasumi is a kind, friendly and lively girl who loves all things cute, and her love for idols is unrivaled in strength and inspiration. Kasumi wants to be number one in any competition she's in, and often resorts to cheating or even sabotage to achieve that goal. As a consequence, she is a sore loser whenever she achieves anything other than first place. She hates the nickname Kasukasu which roughly translates to "just barely" or "not quite", and gets in a bad mood when referred to with it. Kasumi spends a lot of her time scheming or thinking up new ways to ensure her own victory; however, these plans often fail or aren't as devious as she thinks. Kasumi can also be considerate of her fellow idols and is seen doing things to cheer them up or to be nice to them. For example, she tries to rile up the group when Ayumu Uehara is nervous before their live, and exchanges genuine Christmas gifts with the Dengeki Online group.
