Student Council President of Shujin Academy.

17

Zodiac sign: Taurus, Acarna card: Priestess

164 cm (5’5”)

Makoto has brown hair in a bob cut with blunt bangs and a French-braid styled headband that matches her hair color.

Her eyes are abnormal as they have been depicted as red, although her eye color in her portraits can be interpreted as a reddish-brown.

Her winter school uniform appears normal but without the standard blazer. Instead, she wears a black halter vest over a long-sleeve white…

white shirt with a turtleneck (which is different from normal turtlenecks for female students as there is a noticeable zipper).

She wears the regulation black and red pleated plaid skirt, black pantyhose and black-brown ankle boots.

Her summer school uniform is modified. She wears a white dress shirt with the High Priestess emblem ("BJ") embroidered on the collar instead

Under the regulation skirt, she wears Capri-length black leggings and black tassel loafers with no socks.

Despite her position as student council president, Makoto is an extremely unpopular student at Shujin Academy.

This is due to her not doing anything to stop Suguru Kamoshida's abuse, resulting in all the students labeling her as an arrogant, selfish…

Labeled: control freak who knew about the abuse but chose to ignore it because she only cared about getting a good letter of recommendation

These rumors and labels about her are ultimately revealed to be completely untrue. In actuality, the abuse outraged Makoto,

she felt powerless to do anything about It due to the influence Kamoshida held over the school.

In fact, Makoto holds no real authority at Shujin, with her position merely making her a glorified tool for the principal to use.

She also isn't above keeping secrets from her friends to keep her image.

Feeling overshadowed by her highly successful older sister and being used as a tool, Makoto has almost no sense of self-worth.

so has made a habit of keeping her nose down and doing what is expected of her.

However, Makoto stops denying that she was nothing other than a tool for higher authorities.

She vows from then on to fight for what she believes in.

She's done being the "exemplary honor student" and that she's going to try to be more honest with herself.

Despite appearing prim and proper on the surface, Makoto is actually more of a tomboy: she's trained in aikido, enjoys violent action movies

never wears skirts other than her school uniform (which she wears leggings under) and seems to care little about fashion.

Makoto has a compliant temperament that she never breaks out of: she is a level-headed and kind person, almost to a motherly extent.

Her discipline would be self-asserted, and in turn she would be strict on others and have an unrestricted and violent way of expressing that

Additionally, this same struggle with regulations would make Makoto herself socially awkward at first.

She wouldn't yet realize that there's more to life than that, and would actively combat her ignorance.

Despite her immensely serious personality and efforts to be above the more bizarre antics of her friends.

Makoto does have her own hidden elements such as being frightened by hearing ghost stories, as well as the dark.

Makoto is an excellent analytical thinker and strategist, known for correctly deducting how a majority of puzzles at first sight

Makoto's relationship with her sister is highly bitter, as Sae considers her as a detriment, yet Makoto constantly attempts to please her.

She please her sister by fulfilling the expectations of other people.

The Niijima sisters Makoto and Sae lived alongside their father since their mother died when they were young. As he was not home often.

the sisters disliked their father. Unfortunately, three years ago, he was murdered by being ran over by a truck in the line of duty.

After their farther passing. the elder sister Sae was force to juggle between handling cases in court and raising Makoto alone.

Her older sister, Sae, saw both Makoto and their father as a burden and did not hold her in high regard.

Makoto also regretted disliking her father and wished that he would still be around.

Makoto was deeply apologetic that her sister has to shoulder the burden of supporting her on her own.

She absolutely hates being a burden to her sister, and as a result studied very hard so that she can enter a top-notch university.

She wants relieve Sae's burden once she graduates. Unfortunately, nobody in school treated her seriously.

She has become a third-year honor student and the president of the student council in Shujin Academy.

Although she was dissatisfied with her position as student council president, because the students view her as incompetent and unfit.

She can initially be found in the school library studying at a table after school lets out for the day, and will appear semi-regularly.
