Background / History
Anon transfers into Bai Qiu’s class after returning from a period of study abroad. She presents her return as being due to family reasons and asks Bai Qiu not to reveal her prior situation. Quickly becoming the center of attention as a new student, she enjoys the social recognition and is confident that she can fit in with her classmates. 56
Her initial account conceals the difficulties she faced abroad. She later admits that she could not adapt to England: the weather and food upset her, her spoken English did not let her communicate effectively, she made no friends, and her academic performance did not meet her expectations. Fear of being ridiculed by former classmates for leaving caused her to hide the truth. 105 116
Anon begins pursuing a band after becoming interested in Takamatsu Tomo and the Astronomy Club circle. She agrees—albeit uncertainly—to try forming a band that could last “a lifetime,” and the group later takes shape with Tomo, Shiina Rikki, Nagasaki Sosei, Hachiman Hairin, Yoruna, and Bai Qiu’s support. 63 100
Appearance
Anon is a fair-skinned girl with long cherry-pink hair and gray eyes. Her expressions often emphasize her small sharp canine teeth, especially when she is pleased, teasing someone, or executing a plan. 56 115 191
- Long pink hair, often with a loose strand that she twirls when embarrassed or thinking. 101 191
- Gray eyes. 115 280
- Small, noticeable fangs. 56 63
- Frequently presents herself with a polished, fashionable image and discusses cosmetics and fashion with Kita Ikuyo. 112

Personality
Anon is sociable, expressive, and highly conscious of how others see her. On arriving in her new class, she easily handles the attention of her classmates and internally considers that environment ideal for her. She enjoys popularity, imagines the recognition a successful band could bring, and is an enthusiastic fan of idols and online performers. 56 92
Beneath that confidence, she is sensitive to failure and embarrassment. Her fear of being exposed as someone who left her overseas studies, combined with insecurity about her guitar ability, causes her to avoid difficult situations. Rikki’s accusation that she was running away hits particularly hard because Anon recognizes it as true. 113 116
Anon can be playful and impulsive, giving Bai Qiu the nickname “Qiuqiu” despite his objections and writing “MyGO!!!” rather than her own name. She is also jealous and observant regarding Bai Qiu’s closeness with other girls, though she gradually becomes more direct about her feelings and more willing to confront uncomfortable relationship issues. 119 159 202 281
