Sayaka is considered one of the most elegant and beautiful girls in school. She has waist-length light brown hair, braided into two braids at the nape of her neck, with the rest of her hair falling down her back. She has square bangs that fall across her forehead, and green eyes.

Sayaka is a hardworking, driven, and highly intelligent girl, but she is also observant and highly attuned to subtle social cues and relationship dynamics.

However, at times she appears distant or even unapproachable. In particular, she is very intolerant of those she considers lazy. When solving problems, Sayaka prefers people who are straightforward and open.

Although she experiences loneliness and jealousy, especially when it comes to Touko, she keeps these negative feelings to herself to avoid causing problems and suffering to others. The only person she trusts is Miyako, who considers Sayaka a good person for putting others' feelings before her own.

Even though her love for Touko remains unrequited, the change in Touko after the play seems to convince Sayaka that she still has a chance. She confesses her feelings and is rejected, though she accepts it quite calmly. She's able to remain friends after Touko's rejection and come to terms with Yuu dating Touko.

Sayaka was born into a wealthy family and attended Tomosumi Joshi Girls' School (友澄女子 Tomosumi Joshi), an "exclusive" all-girls school with integrated middle and high school departments. In middle school, Sayaka met an older girl who confessed her love. They began dating, and although Sayaka was initially hesitant about the relationship, she eventually fell in love too. However, when the older girl entered high school, she broke off the relationship, calling it childish, breaking Sayaka's heart and angering her.

After middle school, Sayaka transferred to Tomi Higashi Co-educational High School, where she met Touko Nanami, a first-year student. Sayaka quickly admired Touko's confidence, hard work, and outgoing personality. They both joined the student council and began working together, developing a close friendship. Sayaka soon realized she was in love with Touko, but decided to keep it a secret to avoid damaging their relationship. She decided to simply support her friend as best she could.

The name Sayaka means "sand" (沙) (sa), "more and more, stronger and stronger" (弥) (ya), and "fragrance, fragrance" (香) (ka).
Sayaka Saeki's surname means "help, assistance" (佐) (sa) and "count; elder brother; chief official" (伯) (eki).

According to Yuu Koito, Sayaka enjoys reading literary criticism. Apparently, she's not particularly interested in fiction.

Sayaka has poor eyesight and usually wears contact lenses to school. She wears glasses in her free time, but seems self-conscious about it and rarely lets her classmates see her wearing them.

Yuu and Touko note that Sayaka has a very good karaoke voice.

Sayaka has two cats living at home.
