Natsume Sendawara

Natsume Sendawara is one of the heads of the Haubi Food Corporation along with her identical younger twin sister, Orie Sendawara, and one of the five judges of Block A in the 43rd Annual Tōtsuki Autumn Election Preliminaries. Natsume is an attractive, young woman with long and wavy, dark blonde hair that is separated into two sections at the roots, which fall to either side of her face, orange eyes that are noticeably sharper than Orie Sendawara’s, a beauty mark on her right cheek, and a curvy body. During the Tōtsuki Autumn Election, Natsume's clothing is a high-profile, silky dress. Natsume is a prideful woman who believes that success comes from both the bloodline of the chef and the regal status of the food industry. She has a no-nonsense personality, which made her equally revered and feared by her fellow staff and many individuals in the food industry. Her participation in the 43rd Annual Tōtsuki Autumn Election Preliminaries showed that she has an extremely high standard as she refused to give a single point to most dishes in Block A. Natsume is much smarter and more mature than her twin sister. She values both time and investment. At times, her pride gets the best of her like when she refused to slurp the spiny lobster brain because it was a "vulgar" act. However her pride didn't stop her once she was sufficiently interested, impressed, or pressured. Like Orie Sendawara, Natsume does have a possessive personality, but only to those who she considered complete and utter perfection as a chef. Akira Hayama was the only person in the preliminaries to catch her undivided attention and interest, offering him a lucrative paycheck to work for her. Even though he refused her offer, Natsume still showed great interest in him.
