miyanokouji mizuho

Height: 173cm Mizuho is the main protagonist who transfers to an all-girl's school according to his grandfather's will and must crossdress in order to attend. He already looks very androgynous, so the transition isn't obvious to the other students. However, Mizuho is always nervous about being discovered and constantly worries that it might happen. Despite this anxiety, he was well received on his first day at school and has quickly become very popular among the students. Initially shocked by the terms of the will, with the support of his childhood friend Mariya Mikado, who also attends the school, he managed to come to terms with transferring. Despite adapting to life at the school, he still uses language typically reserved for males in Japan, such as the word "boku," meaning "I". When Mizuho was younger, he had very little self-confidence and would often follow Mariya around, depending on her as his closest childhood friend. His mother died from an unexplained illness when he was young, and one of her last requests to her husband, Mizuho's father, was not to force Mizuho to have his hair cut until he grew up. Mizuho explains that this was so he could freely choose his hairstyle later on, and he kept it, thinking it suited him best. To enroll in the school, Mizuho had to use the surname Miyanokōji, his mother's maiden name; his actual surname is Kaburagi. The Kaburagi family's biggest rival is the Itsukushima family, both of which are very wealthy and powerful. Mizuho didn't realize it at first, but Takako is a member of the Itsukushima family. Despite this rivalry, Mizuho doesn't see her as a competitor and enjoys her company very much. In fact, they share Japanese history class together and sit next to each other. They often communicate during class by whispering or passing notes.
