Yoshimi Sunahara (砂原(すなはら) よしみ, Yoshimi Sunahara) is one of the students from Class 3-2 during the second season of the anime.

Character

Yoshimi is a quiet, individualistic girl but when other people talk to her, she responds with a smile. She wants to study dressmaking after she graduates from high school. She also seems to have a liking to play pranks, as she put a fake mustache on Keiko Sano's forehead instead of her philtrum during the preparations of the class act, resulting in Yoshimi to be in hysterics.

Appearance

Yoshimi is a short girl with short black hair which is cut to an asymmetrical, askew bob cut. Her eyes are grey.

As a Sakuragaoka High School student, she is usually seen wearing the school's uniform properly with a long skirt and white socks.

Etymology

• The name Yoshimi is written in hiragana (よしみ), which has no special meaning. However, when written in kanji (好美, 嘉実 or 良美), it could possibly mean:
  • 好美 - "good, fond, pleasing, like something" (好) (yoshi) and "beautiful" (美) (mi).
  • 嘉実 - "applaud, praise, esteem, happy, auspicious" (嘉) (yoshi) and "fruit, good result, truth" (実) (mi).
  • 良美 - "good, virtuous, respectable" (良) (yoshi) and "beautiful" (美) (mi).
• Yoshimi's surname Sunahara means "sand, grit" (砂) (suna) and "field, plain" (原) (hara).
