Background / History

Shiho initially tries to organize class self-introductions, but Ryuen Kakeru interrupts her. She is disgusted by his behavior and regards the conflict as a childish dispute among boys. 2

By the entrance ceremony, Shiho has singled out Prince Ganlongdao as the person she wants to approach. She invites him to spend time with her, exchanges contact information, and offers the nickname “Bao'er” for others to use. 8

She rapidly forms a friend group with Nanami Yabu, Saki Yamashita, and Rika Morofuji. The group supports Prince Ganlongdao early by transferring points to him, and Shiho becomes one of his most visible admirers. 15

Shiho's attraction to Ganlongdao grows during a karaoke duet, where his arm around her leaves her flustered and emotionally affected. 20 She later tells her friends that she has never dated before and intends to confess, citing his looks, family background, strength, and the sense of security he gives her. 24

She delivers a love letter and confesses to Ganlongdao in an alley behind the school. Their relationship begins soon afterward; Shiho becomes increasingly attached to him, while Ganlongdao explicitly views her as someone he has “conquered” and intends to shape through manipulation. 25 27 28

As Ganlongdao's girlfriend, Shiho openly advertises their relationship, treats the class to drinks using points borrowed from him, and adopts the status of an older-sister figure toward his followers. 28 She remains a prominent member of his circle through the later class activities and sports events. 37 43 50

Appearance

Shiho is a highly attractive girl with a fashionable, attention-seeking presentation. She is described as beautiful enough to rival television celebrities. 2

• Short brown or chestnut-colored hair. 2 8
• Red ribbon tied into her bangs. 2
• Brown eyes. 15
• Notable figure and long legs. 2 25
• Alters her school uniform for a more revealing look, including a shortened pleated skirt and unbuttoned blouse. 24

Personality

Shiho is extroverted, confident, and highly self-centered. She tends to focus intensely on the people she considers important—especially Prince Ganlongdao—while treating others with superficial politeness or outright dismissal. 8 15

She is strongly drawn to visible power, wealth, confidence, and social status. Ganlongdao's control of Class 1-C's points and his confrontational behavior make him more appealing to her, rather than alarming her. 15 20 Her judgment of people is often based on whether they are part of her circle or outsiders, rather than on conventional morality. 20

Shiho enjoys being noticed and takes pride in her elevated status beside Ganlongdao. Although she recognizes that this status depends largely on him, she embraces the role of a central socialite within Class 1-C. 21 She is also intensely vain, frequently comparing appearances, possessions, and social standing. 28

Despite her shallow and impulsive tendencies, Shiho is protective and generous toward her friends. She formed a group quickly after entering the school, supports friends who struggle socially, and treats her role as their leader seriously. 15 24 28
