Shōko Hida

Shōko Hida is a side character in Happy Sugar Life. She is Satō Matsuzaka's coworker who considers her to be a good friend since they spent time together hanging out with guys as they both searched for their one true love. Shouko has dark purple hair that has bangs are parted in the middle and swept outwards with the length of her hair reaches slightly past her shoulders at most as the longer part of her hair is sectioned to her left, purple colored eyes and a beauty mark underneath her left eye. She is often seen wearing her school uniform outside of work, which consists of a thigh-length purple dress with a pink necktie. Depending on the season, her uniform's white sleeves can vary in length. Shouko is a generally easygoing and laid-back person who has been born into a rich family, she acts like a good student, but in reality, she spends most of her time hanging out with guys and she would prefer a happy and normal family rather than a rich one. Shouko also cares a lot for people, for example, she regularly gives Asahi Kōbe food as he tirelessly searches for His younger sister Shio Kōbe and also does her best to try to support Satō Matsuzaka and defend her from Taiyō Mitsuboshi's claims of kidnapping. While she is the most mentally stable out of all the characters, she is also extremely naive and unprepared to confront the true, corrupted nature of other characters. This causes Shouko to question Satou after meeting her aunt despite their friendship, and her naivety ends up betraying Satou's trust, of which she deeply regretted. Regardless, the depth of Shouko's affection for her friends is genuine, as shown through her wholehearted support for Asahi and Satou working hard for the one they love and her insistence on saving Satou from continuing to do immoral things out of her love for Satou.
