Kaede Kayano

Kaede Kayano, also known as Akari Yukimura, Haruna Mase and Forever Flat, is one of the main characters from the Assassination Classroom series.
== Charactah Account ==
Kaede is one of Nagisa's closest friends, and like him, she usually stands in the background and supports the others. She is the student who came up with Koro-sensei's name. Kayano is one of the most cheerful, kind, and passive members of the class. She frequently acts as support in assassination attempts with her ability to assess the situation and adapt herself to them.
Despite her apparent passive nature, Kayano is an empathic and strong-willed person who can be extremely determined to the things that interest her or cares about, such as her love for sweets, and more tragically, her sister's fate. She also experiences a severe complex when it comes to her sex appeal, loudly voicing her discomfort when being around large breasted women.
Before confronting Korosensei, the passive and cheerful personality was in fact a facade to hide her true motives. Her only true attributes were her tenacity, adapting skill, and sex appeal complex, the rest being mere fabrications; her love for sweets may have resulted from the influence of the tentacles. However, after getting her tentacles removed, the happy personality she created became a true part of who she is.

== Trivia ==
* Kayano was called "Forever Flat" during Class 3-E training using code names. The one who wrote her code name was Muramatsu.
* Before officially revealing her tentacles in Chapter 128, Kayano's tentacles make hidden appearances in earlier chapters:
** A Rough Battle This Time, page 11, panel 1
** Time for Kayano, page 19, panel 2
** Time for a Teacher's Exam, page 9, panel 3
* Kayano is represented as a bunny, although only once.
* In the "Girls you're interested in" ranking made by the boys, Kayano was ranked 4th, with style listed as her best point. The comment next to her vote tally says "Small; cheers you up".
* In the popularity poll of Volume 12, Kayano was the lowest ranked of the main trio, at 9th place.
* In the art rankings of Volume 5, Kayano was placed 3rd among the female students.
* Her best subject is Japanese, while her worst is P.E. In Volume 15, her best subjects before joining E Class were Japanese, Social Studies, Science, and P.E. and her worst was Math.
* Her dream is "to become a capable woman." Volume 15 shows that before joining Class E her dream was to be a star actress or an office lady.
* Her hobby is karaoke-scoring.
* Her favorite food is pudding and has shown she has extensive knowledge of it.
* Her inability to swim, her fixation on breasts, and her love of sweets, are traits she shares with Korosensei and to a lesser extent, Itona, though she had her breast fixation even before the implantation. Her strong will, almost bordering on obsession, and drive once she decides to do something, however, is another key trait they share.
** She dislikes people that have a large bust, except Tōka Yada, her sister Aguri Yukimura, and later Irina Jelavić.
* Kayano is the one who gave Koro-sensei his current name, which he has used ever since.
* During the warfare, Kayano was eliminated by Kimura from behind before she could shoot Hinata Okano.
* Nagisa concluded that her pudding plan was just a dummy attempt to further avoid arousing suspicion of Kayano not actively participating in the class's numerous attempts.
