## Debut

### Light Novel

**Isana Higashira** (東頭 いさな, *Higashira Isana*) is a supporting character of the series and one of Mizuto's close friend.

## Overview

An introverted otaku girl that loves light novels. Despite generally poor grades, she was able to enter the same high-school as the rest of the characters, where she befriends Mizuto Irido due to their shared hobbies, both being bookworms.

Under such circumstances, she fell in love with Mizuto for the first time in her life and confessed to Mizuto with the cooperation of Yume and Akatsuki, but she was rejected. Still, given both their personalities, their close relationship stayed the same.

## Appearance

Isana has a short bob cut and green hair with no braids and green eyes. She possess large breasts which she is somewhat confident about.

## Personality

Isana is a shy girl who had few friends, but started to open up to people (like Yume and Akatsuki) after meeting and befriending Mizuto. She is usually calm and collected, but was shown to have a playful and cheerful side in presence of her friend, discussing happily with him when they're together.

After realizing her first love, she came to view love as an extension of friendship, viewing Mizuto (or her lover in general) as a friend with whom you can do more thing that a regular friend. This view contrasts that of Yume who sees her lover as a totally special person.

She is sometimes even bold, talking about her period with no pressure in front of everyone to try to prove she didn't love Mizuto. Her shy bookworm personality resemble Yume's previous personality when she was dating Mizuto.

## Background

Isana had barely no friend before befriending Mizuto, due to common interest in books. After that they'd be shown to read in each other company everyday, discussing about their read or everything coming to mind, like friendship.

They became close quite fast, Isana asking Mizuto to put her socks on, for example. He even stated he would never meet a friend better than her is in whole life and that she is the closest person he ever had in his life (implying closer than he previous girlfriend), showing he likes her a whole lot. She also call him "Mizuto-kun" quickly, astonishing even Yume who didn't use his first name before.

Later, Isana realized she fell in love in Mizuto with the persistent help of Yume and Akatsuki, because she herself knew nothing about love. She admitted she wanted to do thing friends can't do with him, and confessed after school. Sadly, he rejected while admitting their couple would be perfect and very enjoyable, but he couldn't because he didn't want his sister to be sad, despite not dating her anymore. It implies that if Yume didn't exist, he would likely have accepted to date her.

Isana was first saddened, but soon restored her close relationship with him, both starting to hang out together like before (maybe even better, because she looked overjoyed while talking to him), much to Yume and Akatsuki shock who couldn't imagine doing that after being rejected.
