CANON: Kokoro Connect
CANON POINT: Post-Step Time, but before Asu Random.
AGE: 17
BACKGROUND: Here.

PERSONALITY:

Inaba Himeko presents herself as what seems to be the "cool beauty", defined by her friends as an intelligent young woman who is calm, cool and collected when it comes down to it and essentially has everything together. She winds up practically being the leader of the club in spite of being the vice president because of this. After all, she's the one that makes sure that things get done and is also the one who finds herself leading the group; she's the one who calls meetings and making sure that the others aren't doing stupid things and is the one who manages to plan out things down to the letter.

She is, however, at times, to play along with other people's jokes, being the "straight man" of the group; in fact, she even sometimes willing to mess around with people if it means that she can get a bit of entertainment out of it, although it's never outright malicious.

However, all of this is just a well-crafted façade that Inaba wears throughout the first two volumes in front of everyone so people can believe that she has everything together when she honestly... does not.

This all boils down to Inaba's main issue: she finds it difficult to trust other people at all. It doesn't just simply boil down to just strangers, however; this also includes friends and family, too. It's because of this mindset of hers that she winds up pushing other people aside, wearing that proverbial mask so others can't learn that she actually sees everyone as her 'enemy'.

She acts confident in front of others - which can come off as sometimes a little crass - in order to bury her weaknesses; the only exception being when she's purposely polite out of necessity.

Inaba's struggles to trust others boil down to the fact that she is a very logical person to the point where she analyzes things a bit too much. She's also rather pessimistic, given that she says outright that she sees a lot of outcomes negatively - to the point where she sees the world in shades of black and white morality; seeing herself as 'dark' while her friends are kind in spite of admitting that there's no way she could possibly confirm that her friends are actually good people, given her personality. She also tends to keep a lot of her thoughts to herself instead of sharing it with others unless she has to because she doesn't like having people see right through her.

In spite of her struggles to trust people, it doesn't necessarily mean that she doesn't want to - she actually admits that this is a part of her that she loathes and actively wants to change but has problems doing so, given that she believes this side of her is normal. Later on, she admits that she was wrong, leaning that she needs to change and grow in order to improve herself.

She manages to gain the courage to open up to others in spite of her fear of being looked down upon and being hated - revealing that she actually cares a lot about how others perceive her as a person quite a lot. But how she gets this strength is through the support of the others around her, reassuring her that everything will be alright in spite of her anxieties and worries.

When it comes to love, Inaba soon finds herself leaning towards her emotions over logic - even to the point where she states that she's changed because of it. Her feelings are shown rather openly; with her overflowing emotions revealing just how much she cares to the point of worrying over them.

While Inaba herself might say that she's quite selfish, the opposite is actually true. She's selfless to the point where she puts others over herself and even calculates plans to help the group out. She believes that the bonds between her, her friends, and the person she loves the most are important to her to the point where she selfishly doesn't want them to separate; she'll even make an attempt to push things in a certain direction, trying her hardest to be the glue that keeps everyone together. However, even though there's a lot that she would do for her friends - and even more so for those that she loves, she's actually rather steadfast towards her ideals. She isn't willing to compromise on what she thinks is right just because she loves someone; something that shows time and again.

Most times, Inaba tends to do her best at keeping her composure but there are many times when she actually gets flustered, especially when the right buttons are pushed. Inaba herself isn't used to hearing genuine compliments - basically, she can toss compliments at other people but she doesn't take it all that easily.

POWERS/ABILITIES: She's a normal human being, although she is very good with technology from her world as it is shown that she can program.
