Kasuga, Ayumu

春日歩

Ayumu Kasuga is a transfer student from Osaka. Tomo, anticipating that she would behave like the stereotypical Osakan—loud, exuberant, and fond of jokes—gave her the nickname "Osaka," although Ayumu's behavior could not be more different. Ayumu considers the name "slow" and "spacey," but she lacks the energy or motivation to dispute it. The nickname sticks so well that she is called Osaka by teachers and even in the class roster, to the point that no one remembers her real name. In the manga, Osaka mentions that she lived in Kobe when she was in elementary school and was born in Wakayama. Tomo, who says she doesn't know where Wakayama is, tells Ayumu to "just be Osaka".
