Kessoku Band

Nijika is a second-year high school student and is known for being the driving force and most optimistic of the group. She is often described as the "Great Angel of Shimokitazawa" for her kindness, thoughtfulness, and leadership skills. She holds the band together and always looks out for her fellow members, especially Hitori "Bocchi" Gotoh. Despite her cheerful appearance, Nijika also has her own vulnerabilities and a childish side that sometimes reveals itself, especially with her older sister, Seika, who is the manager of the "STARRY" concert hall, a place Nijika holds dear. About the nickname "Doritos": Yes, Nijika is popularly associated with the nickname "Doritos" due to a specific feature of her design. This nickname is due to the small triangular tuft of hair she has on top of her head, which is often drawn in a way that resembles a Doritos potato chip, especially in its shape and sometimes color. It is a running joke among fans of the series, and has become a meme in the fandom, where images of other anime characters are even edited with a "Dorito" on their head.

• Crippling Shyness: Bocchi is incredibly shy. She has a hard time talking to new people, introducing herself, and even holding a basic conversation. Her shyness often leads her to avoid social situations altogether.
