Appearance[]
Personality[]
She has a bit of pride and an overbearing attitude. She is said to be the closest to getting a special study abroad ticket to the National Conservatory of Music in New York, where she is the only one selected from among the top performers each year.
But she says it's not just because of her talent, but because she's dating Professor Shiina, who has the most say in the university. She has used such means to gift her roses with thorns, to have the light bulbs that light her up as she plays her piano broken, and to have cuts in the legs of the chair she sits on. She was harassed by those around her, such as being put in.
Her harassment of hers resulted in a stab wound to her right little finger and a sprained left leg. She was, but she, she was suddenly turned off during the Rose Festival performance, and when she was turned on, she was dead with an arrow stuck in her back. The detective said her arrow on her back was coated with nicotine, the poison that killed her.
As mentioned above, she was dating Ishiyama, but in order to fulfill her dream, she abandoned him and started dating Professor Shiina, and was killed because he tried to get a ticket to study abroad by any means.
… and the rough flow is like this, but the process leading up to the murder was not so simple, and the other members who competed based on their strength thought well of him for trying to win the study abroad in a vulgar way. Instead, she received the harassment described below, which strengthened Ishiyama's murderous intent and led him to the top.
The end result of being beaten up by her comrades in a sense and finally killed is pathetic, but from the point of view of art (although it is true that there are harsh realities), her method is by no means correct. It cannot be said to be a thing, and it completely misunderstands the meaning of "effort", so when think about it, the room for sympathy fades.
