**Asaka** (朝霞, *Asaka*) is a background character of the *Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro* manga series. She is a high school student and a member of the judo club as well as a schoolmate and friend of Shikki; however, while the latter has a progressively better relationship with Nagatoro, she and Fujimin mostly kept a sort of animosity toward the latter and her clique, albeit ultimately getting somewhat friendlier.

Her first name is currently unknown.

## Appearance

Asaka is an attractive and very tall, high schooler with long, straight brown hair - whom she usually keeps in a low ponytail, especially when at judo club, but occasionally combed to the side - and a jagged fringe falling on her face. She has a fair complexion, thin eyebrows and large, unsympathetic and apathy-looking droopy blue eyes. She has an athletic and lean physique with medium-sized yet well-proportioned breasts, despite seeming somewhat smaller in term of bra size, if compared to the other female characters. Apparently Asaka has a tendency to zip her lips to the side as well as grinning or smirking very often.

She typically wears her school uniform consisting of a white button up shirt (with the collar never buttoned) and a navy blue skirt completed with a pair of sneakers and white soccer socks. However, in summer she wears a short-sleeved shirt in her uniform. She has also prominently been shown wearing her judogi.

When not at school she usually wears sporty clothes.

## Personality

Asaka is very concerned about the judo club's reputation and feels offended that Nagatoro, whom she deems "the one who ran away from Orihara with her tail between her legs" was welcomed back into the club. Because of this, she acts mean and spiteful towards her, often criticizing and mocking her. She seemingly has a tag-along personality and tends to follow Shikki in whatever she does but, in stark contrast with the latter, is not as easily intimidated, albeit seemingly beeing quite a coward if on her own, and sweating heavily in tense situations. Also, when Shikki apologized to Nagatoro, although doing the same, she's the only girl in the group who keep frowning, implying she didn't feel any regret and is only doing it because of the others.

Asaka could be considered the meanest out of her trio - always very eager to disrespecting or bodyshaming pretty much everyone - is very provocative and also a bit of a meddler with no qualms about stalking others for the sole purpose of mocking or hurting them for fun. However she's also the weaker - or at least the less athletic - among her clique as she's the only one who wasn't selected for the judo tournament and has never actually show a passion nor any real interest for judo, despite being unanimously considered very knowledgeable about it.

The nature of her relationship with Fujimin is quite uncertain as they have great chemistry, seem very affectionate to one another and she has no qualms in publicly say to having touched the latter's breasts and knowing how soft they are. Futhermore, during their free day in Kyoto the two have been seen hanging out together (without Shikki) close to a the city's top matchmaking spot, Jishu Shrine, wearing matching rented kimonos. Asaka has shown to be very proud of Fujimin's achievements, often bragging about them as if she was actually bragging about the girl herself.

Usually very sarcastic and malicious, she's very prone to bad-mouthing and insulting others, regardless of them being fellow students or professor but is also very realistic, thoughtful and skeptical, often preventing Fujimin to jump at conclusion without looking at the fact, also she's seemingly looser and way much forgiving about transgressing at rules or protocols. Despite her usual rudeness, after realizing about Shikki's budding exhibitionist streak, she began to tease her in quite a friendly manner and firmly stand up for the "Masked Nude Girl" when others mock her, proving she can be very supportive toward her friends.

## Biography

### Early life

Asaka was born in Hayama, Kanagawa, no information about her family or her home life are given. After beginning to attend Kazehaya High School, she became a member of the judo club and made friend with Shikki and Fujimin.

### Story arcs

#### Trouble at the Judo club arc

One day, while practicing judo until late evening, Asaka, Shikki and Fujimin spoke badly of Nagatoro during their break time, being, unbeknownst to them, heard from Senpai. Later, Shikki challenged Nagatoro to a match and eventually hurt the latter's right arm while Senpai was watching.

     Despite having seriously hurt Nagatoro's wrist, Shikki spitefully mocked her, saying that getting injured so easily meant she "didn't even try" and her friends do the same. Angered by this, Senpai stormed into the room and confronted Shikki, telling her that what she had said was wrong due to Nagatoro actually trying very hard everyday; to which the girl got surprisingly more meek and shy. Seeing her in trouble, Shikki's friends accused Senpai of being a stalker and spying on them, however Nagatoro intervened saying that the boy always waited for her when she had judo practice; later the girl let herself be taken to the infirmary and discovered that her wrist was broken and would have needed two weeks in order to fully recover. The following morning, Shikki and her group approached Nagatoro and the boy to apologize.

#### Shower arc

Later that day, while having judo practice, Shikki and her gang saw Nagatoro having a run with Senpai in order to have some basic training and stare silently.

Later, finishing her training, Asaka went to the showers with her friends discussing how, after the place was recently renewed, the positions of the male's and female's room were swapped, despite it was explained only a few hours before to the club members. Then, Fujimin detected "a boy's scent" and angrily start looking for him wile she helped half-heartedly due to scepticism, yet they failed at finding anyone since Shikki covered for Senpai's presence, thus the girl dissuaded her friend and proceeded in taking a shower. After finishing her shower, she waited for Shikki alongside Fujimin and, when she exited her shower box, joked on how slow she was; then the trio went home together.

#### Field Trip arc

During the free activity day of the field trip in Kyoto, Fujimin noticed Nagatoro going on a date with Senpai, thus intriguing Asaka and, albeit Shikki told them to go in the bus instead, they didn't listen to her and followed the couple at the Jishu Shrine with the intention to beat them up with a wooden sword if they got too "lovey-dovey", however they are stopped by Gamo-chan and Yoshi, starting a fight with them in which she chased the latter to no avail while Fujimin managed to defend herself against Gamo-chan allowing them to escape, thus they reach Senpai and hit him with wooden swords causing the boy to lose track of the path to the love stone he was trying to reach.

     However, the couple start calling each other names in order to allow the boy finding the way once again; prompting the girl and Fujimin to try attack one more time, being promptly stopped by the sudden appearance of Orihara, which lead them to try escaping only to be stopped by Shikki, scolded, and then spanked by Gamo-chan and Yoshi.

#### Training camp arc

After the responsible of the judo club told the members that the coach they had requested has had an emergency and thus couldn't be at their training camp, she and Fujimin expressed indifference about it and were both annoyed when Nagatoro propose her siblings as replacements. Later on, before departing for the training camp, the girl was quite upset to have Misaki and Taiga Nagatoro as coaches, Sakura and Yoshi as special managers and the art club doing their training camp with them; then she travelled with them to the city of Nagatoro, where they began the training camp and, albeit remaining sarcastic to Nagatoro, she followed her siblings' instructions.

     At the end of the first day of training camp, she joined the rest of the girls at the onsen.

The following day Asaka and Fujimin listen in annoyance at Nagatoro bragging about her night at the onsen with Senpai and she pointed out that she "might come crashing back down" because of it, however she was later quickly overpowered by Nagatoro during the fight, thus choosing to have a sparring match with one of the first year student instead.

On the last day of training camp, Asaka and Fujimin lissen as their friend Shikki got appointed as captain of the team for the tournament's team battle and new head of the club; both girls celebrate her happily. Shortly after, the club members were given free time for the rest of the day and she go enjoying the city with her friends and sailing with the rest of the group.

#### Kainan's Big Four

Few days after returing home, she and Fujimin overheard Nagatoro telling Gamo-chan about having followed Senpai to his prep school in order to made sure he wasn't gettin bullied, and made fun of her for acting like "a stalker". Few days later, she had a practice session with the rest of the club and, after the responsible gave them the next day off, went to the changing room making programs with Shikki and Fujimin.

On August 27th, she went to the judo tournament alongside Sakura, Yoshi, Nekoba and Rabi-chan to cheer for her friends. It is unclear though, if she stayed until the tournament end.

The following day Asaka took part to the individual matches and, like all the girs of Kazehaya's judo club, made it through the first round; then she watched the fight between Fujimin and Gamo-chan, being a little unnerved of the latter's victory. Later, Asaka also watch Nagatoro's second match, smiling in approval when she won, and, after lunch break watched as Orihara won her third one, before winning her own third round.

Later on she assisted at the match between Nagatoro and Orihara while cheering for the latter; Asaka was stunned when eventually Nagatoro score a full point winning the match.
Later on, Asaka has her fourth round, but was defeated by her opponent.
