Kobayakawa, Yutaka

小早川ゆたか

Yutaka is a very positive and cheerful, though occasionally forgetful, girl who is Konata's cousin and Yui's younger sister. Konata and Soujirou also call her "Yu-chan." When Konata became a third-year student, Yutaka was admitted to Ryouou Gakuen High School as a first-year student. She is in class 1-D, the same class as Minami, and ran for class president on the first day of school. Yutaka moved in with Konata's family because her weak body makes her prone to illness, and commuting from her home to school was too far. She wears her hair in small pigtails and often has a ribbon in it. As an indoor person, she is shorter and has a smaller physique than Konata. Her main concerns are her height and physical development. However, she realizes her dreams are futile since her cousin Konata has not developed at all.
