- Main:

Tooko Amano

Birthdate: March 15

Tooko is Konoha's upperclassman that's one year older than him and the president of the literature club. She likes literature to the extent that she eats what she reads and cannot taste normal food. When Konoha saw her eating the pages of a novel, she forced him to join the literature club so that she could "watch over him" and keep him from telling others about it.

Spoiler:

She also likes Konoha, but chose to leave him.

Her past was revealed in the "Scribe who Faced God" books. Her mother's friend judged Miu Inoue's book, and Tooko was friends with Konoha's editor. This is why Tooko knew what the original ending of the book was, and that Miu Inoue was actually Konoha. Being his first fan, she's been waiting for Konoha to write another book.

Her parents died in a car accident when she was eight. Her mother used to write "snacks" for her, but after their death, she could find no one else to write them before meeting Konoha.

She makes a cameo appearance in the beginning of the 14th episode of Amagami SS as the new Library Committee member.

Miu Asakura

She is a childhood friend of Konoha, who he loved very much until she attempted suicide by falling off the school building.

Spoiler:

According to "Parumiere (パルミエーレ)" book, she actually liked and hated Konoha because the imagination was the only thing she had because of her parents' divorce. She said that by telling Konoha her imaginations to story means he stole everything about her. She also used the fact that Konoha always listened her every order to force him to be alone (away from Kazushi and Kotobuki. This is the reason to be back and to meet Konoha, to get revenge).

She attempted suicide and almost died when Konoha received the award and everyone else thought Miu Inoue was her while she just sent empty script out. She was back to the original hospital for few years without telling Konoha and met Kazushi because his mother is in the same hospital.

In an episode from Short book 1, she felt that she's superior to Konoha but felt inferior to Kazushi. He introduced her to volunteer in a Children's center.

According to 6 Year After Episode (6 years after Touko's graduation), she's volunteering in Children's center.
