Himeko Tachibana (立花(たちばな) 姫子(ひめこ)) is one of the students from Class 3-2 during the second season of the anime.

Character[]

Himeko is a member of the school's Softball Club and has a part-time job at a convenience store. Her behaviour is that of any other high school girl, but she has in fact a warm-hearted and polite side. Yui Hirasawa, who sits next to her in class, quickly became attached to her.

Appearance[]

Himeko is a girl with over-the-shoulder length, light brown hair that is slightly darker than Ritsu’s, and lighter than Yui’s, and skin that is very slightly darker than the main characters. One lock of her hair always hangs between her eyes, with the main forelock mostly covering her left eye. Her eyes match her hair in colour. As a Sakuragaoka High student, she is usually seen wearing the school uniform, with the blazer unbuttoned and the white shirt tucked loosely into her skirt. She wears white Loose Socks.

Etymology[]

  • The name Himeko means "princess, young lady of noble birth" (姫) (hime) and "child" (子) (ko).
  • Himeko's surname Tachibana means "standing" (立) (tachi) and "flower, blossom" (花) (hana/bana).

Trivia[]

  • Himeko and Mifuyu Matsumoto were candidates for the leading role of the class play "Romeo and Juliet". However, both were clearly beaten by Mio Akiyama.
    • Himeko managed to get four votes.[1]
  • Himeko can be seen holding a pen once in her left hand, so she is possibly left-handed.[2]
