Kirame Hanada

Kirame Hanada is a second-year student at Shindouji Girls' High School in Fukuoka Prefecture and the vanguard of its mahjong team. However, she is the weakest member on the team. She previously attended Takatoobara Middle School in Nagano Prefecture and was once Yuuki Kataoka and Nodoka Haramura's upperclassman. Appearance: Kirame has short dark hair with pig tails that curve inward around her face and dark blue eyes (green eyes in the manga). She wears the standard Shindouji Girls' High uniform. Personality: Kirame is the easily excitable type who has always been shown as cheerful, fearless and strong-willed, even when the odds were against her (such as playing against Teru Miyanaga and Senriyama's Ace). She has a habit of saying "wonderful", as shown during her fight with Teru Miyanaga. When the battle ends, despite losing the most points she has a large smile on her face, unlike her opponents. She is also extremely polite and respectful, even using the "-san" honorific with underclassmen, claiming that she later hopes to befriend someone in her age range closely enough to not add "-san" (which she does with Himeko Tsuruta). She also takes her role as "Shindouji's sacrifical pawn" rather seriously, as she's happy that someone found a good use for her ability.
