CHIHARU MIHARA

Sakura's energetic classmate and Yamazaki's childhood friend, which means she has spent years developing immunity to his completely fabricated history lessons. Chiharu is usually the first person to expose the lie while everyone else is still deciding whether ancient people really did invent whatever Yamazaki is talking about. She is athletic, straightforward and part of Sakura's everyday circle at school. Her long familiarity with Yamazaki also gives the pair an easy rhythm that makes even their smallest background scenes feel lived in.
