 * Yaoi Fangirl: Interestingly is a fujoshi despite her shyness around males.
 * Zettai Ryouiki: Grade A, present in her school uniform and Elegant Gothic Lolita outfit.

Miya Tachibana
"Voiced by: Kana Asumi"

Junichi's younger sister. She affectionately calls him "Nii-nii" but is often chastised by him for this; thus, she calls him "onii-chan" outside the house.

 * A-Cup Angst: With evidence.
 * A Day in the Limelight: Episode 26 is focused on her, and unlike the other arcs and even, there's no romantic development involved.

 * My Nii-nii Is Off Limits: Most notable with Haruka, whom Miya immediately dislikes. Averted in the case of Rihoko and Miya's two friends, Sae and Ai.
