Initially, she shows off a stuck up attitude, but very easily settles down and becomes an integral part of the Koto club. Satowa Hozuki ( 鳳月 さとわ) Voiced by: Atsumi Tanezaki (Japanese) Amber Lee Connors (English) (anime) A prodigious Koto player. He has a crush on Kurusu, who reciprocates the feeling, even though they have not confessed to each other, being completely unaware of the other's feelings. Mostly, he has a serious personality, and approaches everything he does earnestly. This changes later, and he becomes quite the dependable senior and president. Initially, his personality was like that of a coward, and someone who lacked confidence, no matter what he did. He is also relatively new to the Koto, and initially feels the pressure of being the president, but calms down once he knows that he has the help and support from all the other members of the club. Takezo Kurata ( 倉田 武蔵) Voiced by: Ryota Osaka (vomic), Junya Enoki (anime) (Japanese) Alejandro Saab (English) (anime) The president of the Koto club settling into the role since there are no other senior members left after all his seniors graduated. The one who understands him the most is his friend, Takaoka. Chika currently stays with his aunt, Isaki. He has an earnest and diligent attitude when playing the Koto and it seems to flow into his music too. He later develops a crush on her but does not understand his own feelings, leading to him wondering why he feels the urge to touch or embrace her. After learning that Satowa is a genius, he makes reaching her level (as a rival) his goal. He even has the ability to learn to play right after seeing someone else (for example, Satowa) playing it a few times. Although he starts with basically no knowledge about the Koto, he is able to learn playing pretty quickly. He likes to help out his friends, but becomes shy when they thank him. He changes his attitude because of his grandfather, and develops an interest towards the Koto because of him. He is straightforward with his words, but doesn't clearly know how to express himself or understand others, since he hasn't had many friends, spending most of his younger years being a delinquent. However, in the end, they all have the same goal - to play at the Koto Nationals competition.Ĭharacters Chika Kudo ( 久遠 愛) Voiced by: Yūki Ono (vomic), Yuma Uchida (anime) (Japanese) Daman Mills (English) (anime) Kudo, fondly called by his first name by most of his friends, has a very childish personality. More members join the club in time, holding their own reasons for joining. Also joining the club is the Koto prodigy, Satowa Hozuki, who has her own agenda. Things change when he discovers the truth. But, since Kudo is known to be a delinquent, one who destroyed his own grandfather's koto shop, Takezo is apprehensive about him.
