She has long, straight black hair with bangs styled in a hime cut and red eyes.

It seems her birthday is July 1st even without many records of her family backgrounds. She lives alone as her sole relative, her older sister, has been hospitalized long-term.Ch. 10 When she is reduced to pet status, although she could easily pay her debts due to her family wealth or from her winnings, she chooses not to, so as to be involved in more games and so she can also freely challenge the student council president.Vol. 2, 3 She is voiced by Saori Hayami[1] in Japanese and by Erika Harlacher in English.[2]Ep. 1 credits In the live-action drama, she is portrayed by Minami Hamabe.[3]
