Nisekoi

Nisekoi =CHAPTER 2

Chitoge Kirisaki originally lived with her father in the United States until she transferred to another school in Japan — where she is now currently residing in. With her father being the leader of the infamous , it has effectively caused multiple problems for Chitoge during her childhood as she was unable to make friends very easily due to being under constant watch by her bodyguard, . However, when she was young, she met and befriended a hitwoman in-training, , who to the current day, is still friends with. Chitoge also seems to have a few problems with her mother, who has very high expectations for her, making Chitoge somewhat a perfectionist thus she excels in both sports and academics.

At some point during her childhood, Chitoge had made a promise to marry another boy and has a key to that boy's pendant as proof of their promise, ensuring that when they meet again, they can unlock the pendant and marry each other. In addition to this, she also has a diary that depicts her memories of the boy she met from that time; unfortunately, neither his name, his appearance (although there was a drawing of him in her diary, it was not elaborate enough to prove who he was), or the details of the initial promise are mentioned in it.

Chitoge is known as a hafū, or a person with mixed lineage between Japanese and another race. She has an American father named Adelt, who is the leader of the Bee Hive Gang, and a Japanese mother named Hana, who is a very talented and workaholic businesswoman that runs a multi-national business conglomerate, and Chitoge also explains that "her mood can dictate Japan's economy on any given day." Because of her mixed background, she is seen by her classmates (mostly the male ones), to be quite exotic.
