[[File:Super-Deformed Girls und Panzer.jpg|thumb|550px|[[Loads and Loads of Characters|Loads and Loads]] of [[Super-Deformed| Super-Deformed Characters]]. Missing: the girls from Saunders, Kuromorimine, and Chi-hatan; Carpaccio and Pepperoni from Anzio; Klara from Pravda; the university team from ''Der Film''; all of the adults; anyone introduced in ''Das Finale'' including Shark Team; and all of the manga-only characters.]]
There are [[Loads and Loads of Characters]] in ''[[Girls und Panzer]]''. This is ''not'' a complete list - over one-third of the female characters and all of the male characters are missing.
== Oarai Girls High School ==
Line 42 ⟶ 43:
* [[Combat Clairvoyance]]/[[Danger Sense]]: In the match against Saunders, when the Firefly comes after the Panzer IV, Miho is looking forward, watching Alisa's Sherman. She abruptly twitches and turns to look behind her, then shouts to Mako, "Hard stop!" just in time so Naomi's shot misses.
* [[Cute Clumsy Girl]]: After the [[In Medias Res]] opening, Miho is first seen falling out of bed as her alarm clock goes off. On the way to school, a distraction causes her to walk straight into a lamppost. During lunch with Hana and Saori, she pirouettes in delight at having made friends, but loses her balance and nearly falls because pirouetting while holding a full lunch tray isn't a good idea. That's all just in the first episode. She never seems to be clumsy in combat, though.
** In the first episode of follow-on ''Girls und Panzer Das Finale'', [https://safebooru.donmai.us/posts/3123571 she dodged '''every''' punch and kick thrown at her in a brawl]. Not clumsy in combat '''at all'''.
* [[Giver of Lame Names]]: "Operation Sneaky Sneaks"? "Operation Bumpy"?
* [[Hazel Eyes]]: Miho was a talented commander under the Nishizumi school, but only developed her full potential when she got out of her mother's and big sister's shadows and found her own tankery style at Oarai. It's also a contrast with the [[Grey Eyes|grey-eyed]] Maho and Shiho.
Line 48 ⟶ 49:
* [[Heroic Self-Deprecation]]: Miho seems to have boundless confidence in everyone in the world (see [[Magnetic Hero]] below) except herself. (Luckily, she's got her friends who believe in her just as much.)
** On her first day at Oarai, she compliments Saori on how friendly and outgoing she is, and Hana on her cool head and intelligence, but when they compliment her back, she insists that she's "totally lame".
* [[Hidden Buxom]]: Look at Miho in her everyday school uniform. Now look at her when doing the Anglerfish dance in Episode 4. Either that costume is padded, or she must usually wear a special bra to hide those.
** Look at her in a swimsuit at the end of OAV 1, after Yukari mentions Miho's three sizes. The Anglerfish dance costume isn't padded.
* [[Inadequate Inheritor]]: Shiho Nishizumi does not appreciate Miho's deviation from her standards, and attends the semi-final against Pravda for the sole purpose of watching Miho lose and disowning her. When Miho wins, she only dismisses it as a matter of luck and prepares to do the same for the final against Kuromorimine.
* [[The Leader]]: Reluctantly. Mostly a combination of Type II (Levelheaded) and Type IV (Charismatic ... although even at the end, she isn't good at [[Rousing Speech]]es). Once Miho starts improvising battle plans, Type I (Mastermind) joins the mix.
Line 54 ⟶ 56:
* [[Love You and Everybody]]: She says she "love[s] each and every one" of her teammates (which Yukari and Saori misunderstand as a romantic confession — Yukari with glee, Saori with some nervousness).
* [[Magnetic Hero]]: Miho wins over just about everyone she crosses paths with. Darjeeling comments on it (after Miho gets pre-final greetings from Kay and Katyusha), and Miho says "That's because everyone is just so wonderful!" (Which says as much about ''her'' as it does about the people she befriends.)
* [[Mandatory Unretirement]]: Starts the entire series. Miho was trying to get away from tank battles when she transferred to Oarai, choosing that school because it didn't have a tank club. She's ''immediately'' drafted by the [[Absurdly Powerful Student Council]] to join the school's brand-new tank club.
* [[Mirthless Laughter]]: When she doesn't know how to deal with a social situation, she'll often give a barely-audible nervous giggle, with a facial expression somewhere between a smile and a wince of pain.
* [[New Transfer Student]]: But it turned out she couldn't transfer away from tankery.
Line 72 ⟶ 75:
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by Yukari include:}}
* [[Character Tics]]: She has a peculiar way of expressing embarrassed pleasure by squirming while fluffing up her hair; it's most often seen when someone —
* [[Crazy Prepared]]: With [[Hammerspace]]! Where'd that thermos full of hot cocoa come from? And the folding spade? The lantern? How did she anticipate one of her comrades would need an insulating wrap for inside her boots? Her pockets are flat and she has no backpack, but out come the handwarmer, scissors, sewing kit, bandages, [[Batman|batarang]]
* [[Dressing as the Enemy]]: She does so for pre-match "reconnaissance" of Saunders, Anzio, and BC Freedom, and OVA 5 reveals she (and Erwin) do it
* [[Friendless Background]]: For years (before the reinstatement of the tankery club), nobody else at Oarai loved tanks the way she does. Anglerfish Team were her first real friends in a long time.
* [[I Know Mortal Kombat]]: In their first drive-and-shoot practice, Yukari was the gunner. Three shots fired equals three panzers disabled. She'd never before fired a real tank's gun, but apparently honed her skills playing [[Arcade Game]]s. Considering that score, it's actually a bit astonishing they let Hana take over the position when they didn't yet know how good a shot
* [[Japanese Honorifics]]: Refers to all the other Anglerfish members with the highly formal "-dono." (She's also used it to speak of some of the other Oarai girls, for instance Caesar.) In the English dub of the anime, this is represented by e.g. addressing Miho as "Miss Nishizumi".
* [[Military Salute]]: Sometimes very out-of-place. For example, she salutes in the group bath when Mako agrees to be their driver.
* [[Pose of Supplication]]: When they realized they'd won the drive-and-shoot, she climbed out and knelt atop the turret to [[The Glomp|glomp]] Miho, who was leaning up out of the loader's hatch. After a moment, though, Yukari backed off and put her head to the metal, apologizing for her exuberance.
* [[Single-Target Sexuality]]: When Miho says that she "loves" her teammates, Yukari cheers, "Miss Nishizumi confessed her love for me!"
** The OVA [[Beach Episode]] "Water War!" reveals she's studied Miho closely enough to estimate her three sizes (for the record, 82-56-84) and (Crazy Prepared, again) buy her a bikini that flatters her build when Miho got sidetracked and didn't buy a swimsuit herself. It fits perfectly. ''Maybe'' she could do the same for the other girls, but there's no sign of it.
* [[Teen Superspy]]: After her spying at Saunders, an even more successful infiltration of Anzio, and her reconnaissance of Pravda positions, the spin-off ''Ribbon Warrior'' indicates [http://www.mangareader.net/girls-panzer-ribbon-no-musha/5/8 Yukari now has a reputation] among the various schools as a female [[James Bond]].<ref>Note the use of an Anglerfish Dance costume as a [[Spy Catsuit]].</ref> Given that these are all girls' schools, the line about "gathering intel with sex appeal" is a bit ... *[[Schoolgirl Lesbians|ahem]]*.<ref>Of course, the girl who's telling this has already noted of herself that she's turned on by

Line 98 ⟶ 101:
* [[Friendly Sniper]]: She's not the outgoing sort of friendly, but she is warm and kind to everyone. She's also a crack shot with a 75mm cannon. Enough so, by OVA 7 (coinciding with Episode 7), to hit on the first shot from 1500 meters.
* [[Inadequate Inheritor]]: Hana's mother is not at all happy that her daughter is pursuing tankery, when Isuzu style flower arrangement should embody delicacy.
* [[Silk Hiding Steel]]: As a [[Yamato Nadeshiko]], Hana is exquisitely silky, but she's also much steelier than her mother Yuri would prefer (in fact, Yuri was quite distressed to smell "oil and iron" on Hana's hands). Several times, she's been the one to encourage Miho to move forward in spite of her doubts. She's also not frightened by noises in the creepy, dark interior of the ship (unlike Yukari, Miho, or Mako) and, while the others are uneasily standing outside Hisako Reizei's hospital room listening to her argue with Mako, Hana's the one who takes the lead in "charging" into the room (this while wearing a quite dressy dress and hat, and bearing a flower bouquet).▼
* [[The Nose Knows]]: She found the Pz 38(t) by smelling oil and iron amidst the scents of the forest they were walking through.
▲* [[Silk Hiding Steel]]: As a [[Yamato Nadeshiko]], Hana is exquisitely silky, but she's also much steelier than her mother Yuri would prefer (in fact, Yuri was quite distressed to smell "oil and iron" on Hana's hands).

{{hardline}}
Line 119 ⟶ 122:
* [[Falling Into the Cockpit]]: Anglerfish Team came upon her, asleep, in the practice field on the first day of the tankery club. She needed to join a club to get her demerits reduced, and they needed another team member. She turned out to be an ace driver.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: "Reizei" sounds quite a bit like the Japanese pronunciation of the English word "Lazy."
* [[Not a Morning Person]]: Sometimes it takes a 75mm blank round to get her out of bed. She
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: In the manga (Volume 3), Saori tells Yukari this is Mako's relationship with Sodoko.
{{Quote|"Although they argue like cats and dogs, she's one of the few people Mako talks to and values."}}
* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?|Why Did It Have to Be Ghosts?]]: Episode 7, exploring the darker, spookier corners of the school ship in search of more tanks, reveals that she's particularly afraid of the possibility of ghosts, more so than any of the other girls.
{{quote|"Ghosts are worse than waking up early."}}
** She's pretty darned scared of her grandmother's anger, too
** And she doesn't like heights; she refuses to approach the edge of the school ship's flying bridge in OAV 3. (She comments that heights aren't as bad as ghosts or grandma, but...) In ''Motto Love Love Sakusen Desu!'' she even expresses a bit of discomfort at riding Miho's shoulders as part of a swimming pool sport.
{{hardline}}
Line 135 ⟶ 139:
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by Saori include:}}
* [[Big Ol' Eyebrows]]: Saori's are about twice as thick as those of most of the girls. They're usually covered by her hair, but show through.
* [[Chekhov's Hobby]]: Her skill at texting becomes important at one point during the tournament.
* [[Have I Mentioned I Am Sexually Active Today?]]: She talks a big game about having lots of boyfriends or romantic experience and wisdom, but has little success to show for it...
* [[Meganekko]]: She wears contact lenses most of the time, but once it comes time to cook at Miho's place, she's seen putting them away and a moment later she has glasses (with rectangular half-frames) on. She looks cute either way.
Line 164 ⟶ 169:
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by Anzu include:}}
*
* [[Brilliant
* [[Japanese Honorifics]]: She uses the "-chan" suffix with Miho's '''surname''', expressing a bizarre mix of intimacy and distance.
▲* "[[Just As Planned]]" is exactly what she says after the first drive-and-shoot, when Miho takes charge of the Panzer IV and it proceeds to disable its four opponents, giving everyone an object lesson about Miho's level of command ability. She says it again in ''Motto Love Love Sakusen Desu!'' when the Morals Committee winds up doing all the work of cleaning the [[Pool Episode|swimming pool]].
* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]: She '''had''' a reason beyond the search for prestige to force Miho back into tankery. Now, [[Poor Communication Kills|if only she'd '''explained''' it]]. Also, she acknowledged that the loss against St. Gloriana was a collective responsibility, and thus decreed the Council would [[Cool and Unusual Punishment|pay the penalty]] along with Miho (and her friends).
* [[Supreme Chef]]: In the second OVA, Rabbit Team was trying to speed up the process of cooking, and wound up setting the prospective meal on fire. Anzu then took charge, salvaged the food, and made it delicious, too.
Line 298 ⟶ 303:
* [[Embarrassing Nickname]]: The OVA "This Is the Real Anzio Battle!" shows a childhood friend addressing her as "Taka-chan," and she's embarrassed when the other members of Hippo tease her with that name.
* [[Hypercompetent Sidekick]]: Erwin's the one who leads in battle, but Caesar attends the strategy meetings.
* [[Seers|Seer]]: She's shown a few times practicing divination, once with a [[

Line 346 ⟶ 351:
=== Rabbit Team ===
[[File:Girls und Panzer - emblem - Rabbit Team.png|thumb|200px|link=Killer Rabbit|To everyone across the country, please be gentle with us.]]
The largest team in numbers (six of them), and the only one composed solely of first-year students. This group operates a US M3 Lee. The Lee has a 37mm gun mounted in its turret, and a 75mm gun in a sponson with only 30° of traverse on the right side of the hull. It's intended for a crew of seven<ref>When given M3s by the US in World War II, the Red Army didn't think it was a good design, and called it a "coffin for seven brothers."</ref>, so they're shorthanded; oddly, Rabbit assigns a separate loader for the '''smaller''' gun instead of for the heavier rounds of the 75mm. They originally painted their tank hot pink. Its mascot is a [[Killer Rabbit|wickedly grinning pink rabbit brandishing a pair of large knives]].
Line 355 ⟶ 360:
* {{spoiler|[[I Will Only Slow You Down]]/[[More Expendable Than You]]: Stalled in the river, they literally '''beg''' Miho to leave them behind.}}
* [[My Greatest Second Chance]]: Given to them by Miho, and they are '''not''' going to let her down.
* [[Surprisingly Good English]]: Inferred in OAV 2, in that they know enough to make fun of the standard Japanese [[Gratuitous English]] phrase "Let's-a go!", emphasizing the extra "A". Also, they quote the [[Monty Python's Flying Circus|Spam sketch]] perfectly in the same OAV.
* [[Tears of Fear]]: Their reaction to their first battle, as they flee from their tank when St. Gloriana starts firing at them. Some of the girls are also crying when they bail out of their tank to get away from a cockroach.
** They tear up, too, while lost in the depths of the ship, and when they learn during the Pravda match {{Spoiler|that their school might get shut down}}.
Line 369 ⟶ 375:
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by Azusa include:}}
* [[Calling Your Attacks]]: Against the Elefant, she declares that it's time for the tactic they'd researched while watching war movies. In the dub, she says, "We call it: Operation Kelly's Heroes!"
* [[The Leader]]: [[Determinator|Determined]] and a student of tactics, shown at one point in ''Der Film'' taking tactical notes while watching a movie involving an M3.
** ''Gekitou! Maginot-sen Desu!!'' portrays her developing a bit of this even before the tournament began; she improvised a battle plan by which Rabbit {{spoiler|and Turtle Teams, supporting each other, took down a SOMUA S35 (47mm gun, upgraded so it could punch through the armor of anything Oarai had) and a Char B1 bis (47mm gun, 75mm howitzer, and '''very''' tough armor)}} while Anglerfish was fighting another S35.

==== Nekota (Mai Nekota) ====
[[File:Girls und Panzer - Nekonyaa.png|thumb|200px|A rare official image of Nekota with her glasses off.]]
Line 573 ⟶ 579:
* [[Beautiful All Along]]: Without her glasses, she looks almost exactly like a fairly typical [[Leiji Matsumoto]] heroine — [[Galaxy Express 999|Maetel]], for instance. This is likely to be a deliberate Shout Out, because her Matsumoto-style eyes don't look quite like those of anyone else in ''Girls und Panzer''.
* [[Cat Eared Headband]]: To go with her name and nickname.
** [[Expressive Ears]]: At least once during OAV 7, one of the ears droops '''only while''' she laments her shyness. When she vows to be more outspoken next time, the ear straightens up again.
* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]: Her name is only given in supplementary materials.
* [[Opaque Nerd Glasses]]: Of the swirly lines variety.
* [[Shrinking Violet]]: Nekota is '''very''' shy. In OVA 7, chronologically before the end of Episode 7, she approaches Miho in a hallway, raises a hand, and then freezes, unable to get any words out. Miho walks past, not realizing the other girl wanted to talk to her. This leads to the Expressive Ear-drooping scene mentioned above.
Line 581 ⟶ 587:
{{hardline}}
==== Momoga (Taki Momose) ====
[[File:Girls und Panzer - Momoga.png|thumb|200px]]
Line 590 ⟶ 596:
* [[Eyepatch of Power]]: She wears a peach-shaped eyepatch, presumably in reference to her name (or is it a nickname?).<ref>[[Recap Episode]] 10.5 mentions that her favorite flower is the peach.</ref> There's no evidence that this is anything other than a fashion accessory. In the final scenes of the anime, she's pulled it down to hang around her neck; the eye it usually covers looks completely normal.
* [[Had the Silly Thing In Reverse]]: She knew which gear she '''wanted''' to shift into, but put the tank into reverse through clumsiness (because the shift lever was so hard to move) rather than by mistake.
* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]: Her name is only given in supplementary materials.
{{hardline}}
==== Piyotan (Aoi Hiyoshi) ====
[[File:Girls und Panzer - Piyotan.png|thumb|200px]]
Line 602 ⟶ 608:
* [[Boobs of Steel]]: When you consider her, um, endowment, and then the example given above for her team Taking a Level in Badass....
* [[Curtains Match the Windows]]: Gray hair (?!) and eyes.
* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]: Her name is only given in supplementary materials.
{{hardline}}
Line 688 ⟶ 694:
== St. Gloriana Girls Academy ==
[[File:
A British-style school, and the first opponents that Oarai faces (in a friendly match, rather than a tournament). Its home prefecture is Kanagawa, part of the Greater Tokyo Area.
Line 695 ⟶ 701:
* [[National Stereotypes]]: They have the British ones, including:
** [[Brits With Battleships]]: Well, there's no battleships to be found, but their school ship is named the ''Ark Royal'', and they use British tanks, such as the Churchill (75mm gun), the Crusader (40mm gun), and several Matilda IIs (40mm gun). The Churchill and Matildas are "infantry tanks," relatively slow-moving; the Crusader sacrifices armor to get a maximum road speed nearly twice that of a Matilda.
** [[Spot of Tea]]: St. Gloriana's students (that we meet) are all named after teas,<ref>Except for "Orange Pekoe", which is a (high) grade of tea, not a type.</ref> and enjoy drinking them, even in battle. They also present various teas as gifts to [[Worthy Opponent]]s. In fact, Darjeeling arranged a meeting to talk with Katyusha prior to the semi-finals ''because she likes their tea.'' (She also told them some information on Oarai and Miho, but it wasn't anything they didn't already know — the only reason that it was any news to Katyusha is that she hadn't been paying attention when Nonna told her about it earlier.)
* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]: It is ... '''unlikely''' that a Japanese girl's parents named her "Darjeeling." Even a genuine English girl wouldn't be christened "Orange Pekoe."
* [[Theme Naming]]: Or Theme Nicknaming - all of the team members are names after varieties of black tea or herbal tea.
{{hardline}}
Line 719 ⟶ 726:
[[File:Girls und Panzer - Orange Pekoe.png|thumb|200px]]
Darjeeling's loader (and frequent companion). ''Der Film''
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by Orange Pekoe include:}}
Line 739 ⟶ 746:
== Saunders University High School ==
[[File:
An American-style school, based in Nagasaki Prefecture on Kyushu's west coast, and Oarai's first-round opponent in the tournament.
Line 781 ⟶ 788:
* [[Butt Monkey]]: Not only did her cheating '''not''' win the match, it didn't {{spoiler|disable even a single Oarai tank, and '''did''' misguide one of her own side's tanks into an ambush where it was zapped}}. '''And''' it got her a chewing-out from Kay. ''Motto Love Love Sakusen Desu!'' shows other schemes going bad on her, for instance [[{{ROOTPAGENAME}}/Funny|when she tries infiltrating Oarai]] in a ludicrous [[Paper-Thin Disguise]]. As a spy, Alisa doesn't remotely compare to Yukari.
* [[Evil Gloating]]/[[Evil Laugh]]: She indulges a little during the match against Oarai. {{spoiler|It doesn't count as [[Unsportsmanlike Gloating]] because Saunders doesn't actually win.}}
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: Shares her Japanese voice with [[Haruhi Suzumiya]].
* [[Loophole Abuse]]: As mentioned above; if there's a loophole in the rules, she'll use it.
* [[Sore Loser]]: Averted, surprisingly enough. She's genuinely ashamed for disappointing Kay with her tactics, and supportive of Oarai during ''Der Film''.
Line 798 ⟶ 806:
** Darjeeling actually addresses her as "Ms. 17-pounder" (the gun used on the Firefly) during a joint operation.
* [[Oral Fixation Fixation]]: Bubble gum.
* [[Schoolgirl Lesbians]]: The notion that Naomi likes girls is also supported by a scene in the ''Ribbon Warrior'' manga, Chapter 10. She was looking somewhat bored, and then [https://web.archive.org/web/20190927172155/https://www.mangareader.net/girls-panzer-ribbon-no-musha/10/15 she peered out a window and saw Tatenashi School's Shizuka Tsuruki ... in a bikini]. Naomi's expression doesn't seem at all bored, seeing that.
{{hardline}}
== Anzio Girls High School ==
[[File:
An Italian-themed school; their emblem is a pizza with asparagus and brown olive toppings. Their home base is landlocked Tochigi Prefecture bordering Ibaraki, and thus physically closer to Oarai than any of the other schools. They are Oarai's second opponent in the tournament. In OVA 7, ''This is the Real Anzio Battle!'', Anzio is equipped with three Semovente assault guns (75mm), six tankettes with twin 8mm machine guns, and as a recently acquired secret weapon, a "heavy" tank with another 75mm gun. The manga has them using fewer tankettes, the others replaced by Fiat Carro Armato M13/40 tanks with a 47mm main gun ... and the heavy tank isn't said to be a new asset.
Line 852 ⟶ 860:
=== Pepperoni ===
[[File:Girls und Panzer - Pepperoni.png|thumb|200px|"That's three million ''lira''!"
One of Anzio's two vice-commanders under Anchovy, shown only in OVA 7 and ''Der Film''. In the OVA, she commands the group of six Carro Veloce CV.33 tankettes, each armed with a pair of 8mm machine guns.<ref>This is an upgrade, as the CV.33 was originally built with a single 6.5mm machine gun.</ref> Naturally, these can't disable any of Oarai's tanks, and ''can'' be disabled even by the Type 89B's gun, but they're well suited for reconnaissance and distracting the adversary. In the movie, she drives the CV.33 that joins Oarai. 160 cm, short black hair and dark brown eyes. She's cheerful and easygoing except in battle, but careless.
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by "Pepperoni" include:}}
* [[Badass Driver]]: In ''Der Film'', driving a tankette on a roller coaster track.
* [[Leeroy Jenkins]]: She's often overly bold and aggressive when caution is called for.
* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]
Line 866 ⟶ 873:
== Pravda High School ==
[[File:
A Russian-themed school. Their home base is Aomori Prefecture, in the far north of Honshu. Oarai's semifinal opponent in the tournament.
Line 918 ⟶ 925:
== Kuromorimine Girls High School ==
[[File:
A German-themed school, based in Kumamoto Prefecture on Kyushu, just east of Nagasaki. It is strongly influenced by the Nishizumi style of tankery. Miho used to be the Vice-Commander of Kuromorimine's team, under her big sister Maho, but during the final match of the 63rd Tournament (against Pravda), in which Miho was commanding the flag tank, another Kuromorimine tank (possibly commanded by Erika Itsumi) slipped into a river. The crew would likely have drowned, but Miho jumped out of her tank and into the river and rescued them. However, Pravda took advantage of her absence, took out the flag tank, and won the match. Her mother and school turned against her, and she left Kuromorimine for Oarai and left tankery entirely.
Line 930 ⟶ 937:
** [[Nazis With Gnarly Weapons]]: They use many tanks of the Panzer series (Panzers, Panthers, Tigers, Elefants, Jagdpanthers and Jagdtigers), believed to be second only to Saunders in the depth of their arsenal, and also a super-heavy Maus tank.
*** [[No Swastikas]]: Their school's icon is the less politically-charged Iron Cross.
* [[Opposing Sports Team]]: Of course, Oarai has to go against four teams to win the tournament, but Kuromorimine is ''the'' big one — not only are they the final opponent, and not only have they had a nearly-unbroken string of victories (with the only break in a decade caused by Miho's actions), but they are also commanded by Miho's big sister Maho.
{{hardline}}
Line 1,012 ⟶ 1,019:
** A 4koma in ''Motto Love Love Sakusen Desu!'' showed Saori wearing a mask of Hisako-obaa-san to scare Mako into waking up. Then [[Right Behind Me|Saori turned around and found the lady herself smirking at her]].
* [[Parental Substitute]]: After Mako lost her parents.
