Nino Nakano

## Voices

**Nino Nakano** (中 (なか) 野 (の)  二 (に) 乃 (の) , *Nakano Nino*) is one of the main characters of the *5-toubun no Hanayome* series. She is the second sister of the Nakano Quintuplets who usually acts as the mother of the family; cooking for them and taking care of their medical needs.

Among the five sisters, she is the one who has the highest hostility towards Fuutarou Uesugi and often rebelled against him early in the series.

## Appearance

Nino is a beautiful and cold-looking girl with waist-length or hip-length straight hair that has square bangs hanging over her eyebrows. She has reddish-pink hair, ranging from light pink to telemagenta in Volume 1 and antique pink to red-violet in Volume 4.

Her notable accessories are twin butterfly-shaped ribbons on both sides of her head. Like her sisters, she has dark blue eyes, an average height, a well-endowed figure and large breasts. She wears a long-sleeved sweater that covers her uniform and a pair of white thigh-high socks. Both her and Ichika Nakano use a handbag.

She is noted to be the more fashionable girl among the sisters, as she has various cute accessories and takes care of her nails. Her ears have yet to be pierced, but she plans to have them at least before marriage.

## Personality

Nino has an outgoing personality and is socially aware, resulting in her having many friends and is a social butterfly. She has a sharp tongue and talks bluntly when confronting others, even to her sisters. Her rebellious attitude makes her the least cooperative girl among the sisters, making her archetype resemble that of a "tsundere".

Despite the cold and rude front, Nino is caring and protective, like when she is touched by Fuutarou Uesugi's past; remarking that it is tearjerking. It is also evident by her willingness to act as the cook of the family, ignoring her care towards her own appearance (culinary activities may lead to foul odor, damaged nails, etc.). She is also shown to always have band-aids with her, possibly as a precaution to Yotsuba Nakano's active behavior.

Her interests seem to lie more on romance than anything else. An example is when she wanted to watch a romance movie, whilst Itsuki Nakano preferred a science documentary instead. With this is mind, she likes to openly state her feelings for Fuutarou, regardless of whether it's in front of him or her sisters.

According to Fuutarou, each Nakano Quintuplet has their own characteristics regarding their sheets, but in Nino's case, she will file her papers neatly.
