She has shoulder-length brown-black hair and rich brown eyes. Her skin is petal soft and evenly coloured a faint tan. The small girl wears an easy smile when in the company of family and/or friends, which is rare. She treats instructors with utmost respect, to a fanatical extent.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong><br/>They were friends ever since Asami-chan came to her school. She defended Akiko since kids often picked on her, and it only got worse in high school. A sudden disappearance lead to a number of people wishing they had been more kind to her, however. They thought she killed herself.<br/><br/>She was far from dead, she had just been pulled from the public girl's high school she'd been attending and sent to the premier Sendai High School, an exclusive private school, which had accepted her by way of her academic merits.  However, Akiko has yet to arrive at Sendai, having been taken on an extended family vacation by her well-to-do grandparents, the owners of a high-class hotel in downtown Tokyo.<br/><br/><strong>Other:</strong><br/>Akiko had been a popular target of pranks and practical jokes at her old school. She was often the target because Akiko is a very quiet and shy girl, avoiding the other girls when possible. They took this as a weakness, and picked on petite Akiko. Unknown to all of them, Akiko had chosen to avoid the other girls at her school as she felt herself becoming attracted to them, and knew that such thoughts were not only shameful, but would lead to yet even more ridicule. Yuri relationships are still taboo in <em>Nippon</em>, and not only did she seek to avoid shaming herself, but her family as well. This shame and aversion goes so far so that little Akiko will willfully avoid using the girl's room if anyone else is inside.<br/></td></tr></tbody></table>
