Wow~ Shijima-chan, you're just like a doll!
—Shijima's Friend.

- Forgotten First Meeting: She is actually the first friend of Shijima during her elementary years, before Shijima even befriended Majime. But fast forward in the present, her current status remains unknown.
- Girly Girl: She wears a cute-looking headband with a bow on it, and is shown to have a hobby of dressing-up others, which was exemplified when she dressed Shijima up like a doll.
- Not-So-Imaginary Friend: Turns out that she is real, as it was shown that she is Shijima's first friend during her elementary years, many years before Shijima even befriended Majime in the present. Unfortunately, it is not known what happened to her in the present.
