Olga is a tall girl with boyish short hairs. She usually wears Pravda Girls High School's school uniform outside of matches and the sensha-dō one during matches.

Olga is Ekaterina's childhood friend, always acting kind and supportive of her friend's efforts and trying to keep her spirits high when she is upset.

She acknowledges Katyusha's skill after seeing her performance in Pravda's training matches and confides to Ekaterina her positive opinion on the young first year.

Although she's shown more composed than her friend Ekaterina after losing a training match, much like her she takes the defeat at the 61st National Tournament pretty hard and breaks down crying after the loss.

After the third years suffer a humiliating defeat against the first year team commanded by Katyusha during their very first training session, Olga is shown trying to calm down an irritate Ekaterina, reassuring about her commanding skills and urged her to take actions after their defeat so it won't affect discipline. During the private review of the training session between the third years and Katyusha, she mostly acted as a mediator calming Polina burst of anger and make a summary of Katyusha's actions during the training, after they deduce that the first years won by chance she reminded Katyusha that the rules and regulations of Sensha-dō are there to protect the students and that "accidents" like not controling the crew could result in more than injuries.

After months of training in preparation for the 61st National High School Sensha-dō Tournament, she observed Katyusha and aknowledging to Olga in private that the young student is showing more promise than some of their second years.

When everyone including herself were baited to attack a group of charging Crusaders led by Earl Grey and her Cromwell, which created a breach in her defense and gave Darjeeling's Churchill hidden in the forest a clear shot on the IS-2. After a foiled attempt by Katyusha to protect the flag tank, Assam was able to deliver a devastating through the turret ring that took out the IS-2 and ended the match. In the aftermath of the match, she was seen inside the IS-2 devastated crying with Ekaterina at their elimination from the tournament.

After the tournament she graduated leaving her post to Lisa, but she continues alongside Ekaterina to keep an eye on the first years, they discussed about Pravda future, Olga thinking that Natalia's technique to deepening friendship among teammates isn't the better way to go and predict a conflict with the hell-bent on victory first years. In the end as an alumnae she can't interfere with the Sensha-dō anymore and ask Ekaterina why she didn't warn the second years about Katyusha's scheming personality, she answered by reminding her how annoying it was when they were second years when third years constantely interfering.
