Shino Amakusa

Shino Amakusa is one of the main characters from the Student Council Staff Members series.
== Charactah Account ==
Current Student Council President of Ousai Academy. On the surface she's the image of the straight-A student — serious, diligent and talented with most subjects. Behind that, however, she's quite the pervert.
Shino is a serious and diligent girl who is talented in most subjects and she is also very popular among the student body. However, she is almost always thinking perverted things, even suggesting that one of her main reasons to be interested in Takatoshi Tsuda is curiosity about information not covered in health classes. She was complimented by Aria that she's always good at everything but she brushed off the compliment and said that she also has things that she's not good at. She mentioned that when she was on her lower years an English translation of the word pencil was asked in the test, she glanced on the pencil that she's using and saw the right answer. She left the space blank in the answer sheet to punish herself because, as she calls the situation, she 'cheated'. She is self-conscious about her chest, which is exacerbated by the fact that Aria Shichijou happens to be more well-endowed than she is.
It seems that she may have feelings for Tsuda, however, if she (or someone else) realizes that what she's doing can be interpreted as romantic, she immediately attempts to change the situation (and/or ruin it). She often blushes when Tsuda compliments her. She also often shows concern for him. One time, she and Tsuda went shopping at the mall and on the way home she was holding Tsuda's arm. In the latest OVA after the ending song, it is confirmed that Shino likes Tsuda and tried to confess once again but failed.
