Kao Council

The **Kao Council** *(華桜会, Kao-kai)* is a group of third-year students who stand at the top of the Musical Department.

The Kao Council exists in Ayanagi Gakuen as a sort of student council. In a school that respects the independence of students, the members have a strong voice among the faculty and staff. Because graduating from it promises to be the ultimate backup for a musical actor, it is admired by all the students.

Otori had previously withdrawn from the council in order for Team Otori to remain in the audition. After auditions were over, he returned to the Kao Council shortly before the Graduation Ceremony.

Shiki was voted out of Kao Council when Fuyusawa moved for a vote of no confidence. However, he returned in the end to select the following year's Kao Council Candidates.

## Trivia

* The Kao Council was originally made up of four people. During the year Hoshitani entered the school, the number of members was raised to five as the director wanted both his grandsons (Hiragi and Otori) on the council.
* In order to prevent the disbandment of Team Otori, Otori withdrew from the Kao Council.
* Hiragi was the leader of his generation's Kao Council while Shiki was the leader for his.
* During the third season it is shown that if a council member's ability to remain in their position is questioned, another council member may motion for a vote of no confidence.
* Shiki was forced to leave Kao Council after successfully being voted out.
	+ He later returned however, it was not explicitly shown how he managed to do so afterwards.
* After Shiki's leave Irinatsu was seen was seen receiving a Kao Council dismissal form from Fuyusawa.
	+ Although he filled it out, he ripped it up before submitting it due to all the members finally resolving their dispute. Hence he never left the Kao Council.
* At the end of season 3, it can be hinted that the next Kao Council will consist of all the 14 second-year students that were in the music department's Opening Ceremony.
	+ The 14 students are from Team Otori, Team Hiragi, Team Yuzuriha and Team Sazanami respectively.
