Chiaki Nanami

Chiaki Nanami, the Ultimate Gamer, is renowned for her sincere personality and extraordinary ability to succeed at playing video games. Chiaki prioritizes having a fun experience over winning, and she uses video games as a way to connect with others. Despite her typically quiet disposition, she has a lot of initiative, capable of organizing events between friends and bringing people together. Chiaki isn't high on her own talent, considering it to be somewhat silly and unimportant.

Chiaki is a young woman attending Hope's Peak Academy. As a fan of all kinds of video games, she's proficient at playing almost every genre and never goes a day without playing one. Chiaki has a kind personality, eager to make friends and include others in her hobby, but is usually pretty socially withdrawn and content to occupy herself with her games. She has a tendency to zone out while playing video games, frequently becoming distracted, losing track of time, and dozing off. Chiaki doesn't hold her talent in high regard, finding it unremarkable when compared to the likes of her classmates' talents, but she does acknowledge her capacity to bring people together.

Chiaki grew up in a quiet but loving household and had access to video games from a young age. She quickly fell in love with them, enjoying her time whether she won or lost, especially if she was playing with someone else. Her taste spans the breadth of the medium, from the masterpieces to the kusoges, finding value in anything that lets her connect with others or immerse herself in a virtual world. Chiaki is self-admittedly bad at dating simulator games despite their simple nature, disliking them for forcing her to engage with fictitious relationships on an intimate level. Chiaki is at her best when playing for endurance, going on for hours and hours in pursuit of a new high score.

Chiaki stands at five feet and three inches tall, at a weight of two hundred and forty pounds. Her figure is very top-heavy and chunky, sporting full, humongous breasts and a big, soft belly. Chiaki has a bad habit of grazing while she plays games, absentmindedly consuming an excessive amount of calories with snacks in one hand and a controller in the other. She's generally apathetic about her own obesity, finding that it hasn't kept her from making friends or achieving any of her goals. It does contribute to her feelings of self-consciousness over her talent, as Chiaki's weight is just one more thing that adheres her to the stereotype of a sleepy, heavy, nerdy gamer.

Chiaki has short, dusty pink hair that curls out at their ends, with two long curls framing her round face and pointing inwards. Chiaki has big, light pink eyes and has a calm resting face. Her expressions are usually subdued, but she has a sweet smile and warm tone of voice. Chiaki's day-to-day outfit is comprised of a dark teal, hooded cardigan worn on top of a white button-up shirt with a dark teal placket and a ribbon tied in a bow around her collar. She wears a pleated beige skirt that reaches halfway down her wide thighs and dark teal thigh-high socks. Chiaki usually carries around her pink backpack wherever she goes, as well as her hair clip resembling the spaceship from Galaga.
