Aoba, Kokona

青羽ここな

Aoi and Hinata encounter Kokona on the slopes of Mt. Takao. She had gone there hoping to spot dwarf flying squirrels, but her plans were thwarted when the sole of one of her shoes partially tore off. Aoi's initial impression of her is that of a "forest girl." Since both of her parents work, she is proficient at housework in general. She enjoys cute things, particularly animals, and has a special fondness for horses. Beyond real horses, she adores horse-themed mascots like Muuma-kun (a mascot character from Hanno) and Gunma-chan. Despite her delicate physique, she possesses physical strength and is dexterous with her hands. She is also smart and knowledgeable for a junior high school student, occasionally showing off her trivia knowledge to the extent that Aoi and the others admire her. She has a habit of occasionally getting lost in daydreams. With her strong cooking skills, she boasts the highest "girl power" among the four.
