Ayame Shaga

Ayame Shaga is Yō's half-Italian cousin who is an avid gamer and will often use her wily ways to get him to do what she wants. She is also a bento brawler known as the Beauty by the Lake (湖の麗人, Mizūmi no Reijin).

Appearance
Ayame has wild blond hair, wears glasses and is fairly busty. She is usually seen wearing her school uniform but when she came to visit Satō's school, she borrowed a uniform from Hana Oshiroi.

Personality
Ayame has a mixed personality. She is very affectionate to Satō, and often playfully flirts with him, usually by pressing her chest against his back or arm, causing him to become flustered. She has a rivalry with Sen Yarizui and gets excited at the thought of fighting her. She tends to be stubborn at times and is easily irritated when insulted. She also gets upset very easily with Satō, especially when he prefers to hang out with Sen rather than her, often showing signs of jealousy. However, she usually cheers up when Satō "shares" his own bento with her after a brawl.

There have been instances where it is implied that her feelings towards Satō are stronger than expected; Ayame would often stay close to him and even seems somewhat protective of him.

History
Ayame's title, Beauty by the Lake, was earned when she ate her very first bento and fell asleep near a lake on a table.

Before then, Ayame is seen in Satō's flashbacks, where she is seen playing Sega games with him.

Abilities
Ayame often uses chopsticks to fight in brawls. She has lost to both Sen and Satō several times, making her the weakest brawler of the three, despite her great reflexes and speed.

Other than bento brawling, she is an expert in Sega games and is nearly impossible to beat. Even Yō, who also enjoys Sega games, falls short against her, Ayame having beat him nearly 400 times with only about 90 losses at one point.

Trivia

 * Ayame was born on the same day as Yō.
