Shizune and Misha

Shizune and Misha are two students and Student Council members at Yamaku Academy, a Japanese high school for the physically-disabled. Shizune Hakamichi is the student council president and class representative of Class 3-3. She maintains a clever and assertive, if playful, attitude. At her worst, she is bitter and spiteful, but at her best she is charismatic and ambitious. Shizune has short blue hair and bespectacled blue eyes. Although slender and a bit short, she's decently-endowed for a girl of her size. Shizune is deaf and mute, and often relies on her friend Misha to interpret for her; if Misha is not around, Shizune will communicate in writing in a pinch. Shizune's deafness is usually not brought to attention unless asked about it. Shizune feuds often with Lilly Satou, the blind and motherly class representative of Class 3-2. Shizune enjoys games, especially if they're strategic and competitive, such as Risk or chess. Shiina "Misha" Mikado is a student council member. She is bubbly, cheerful, and bombastically-loud. She's not too smart, and maintains an amicable attitude with most people, although she often falls back on Shizune's opinions. Her pink hair is styled in drills, and she has pink eyes. Misha is of average height, and her body is a bit curvaceous. Although a student of Yamaku Academy, her disability is unknown. She calls Shizune 'Shicchan'. She has an unrequited (and rejected) crush on Shizune, but she tries to not let that get in the way of their friendship. Misha has a characteristic laugh: "Wahahaha!"
