Around this time, the petite (and slightly infamous) figure of Sakurazuka Kaori walked into the dojo, ever-present umbrella resting on her shoulder. To the 2nd and 3rd years she was a little famous for being the victim of some bullying incidents last year, due to her showing up the entire student body by effectively ace-ing every exam she could conceivably take.<br/><br/>As of the start of the year she'd taken up the practice of observing the Kendo team's practices and matches from the sidelines, never talking to anyone. It was obvious that she was interested in the club, but she never expressed any interest in actually joining. With her headphones on she sat down to watch the sparring, staring intently without so much as an acknowledgement to the 3rd years in the room. It was rude, but at this point all of the older students had gotten used to it.
