Nonna

[PROFILE] - Nonna is a student from Pravda Girls High School. She's the vice commander of her school's Sensha-Dō team, as well as its sniper and she mainly operates a Soviet T-34-85 tank, although she can operate an IS-2 as well. In the anime, she only missed one shot when she served as the gunner of IS-2.

[APPEARANCE] - Nonna is a tall, beautiful, girm and elegant girl with straight upper-back length dark-brown hair that has a small strand in the middle, light blue eyes and large breasts. She causualy wear Pravda Sensha-do uniform, and black knee socks.

[PERSONALITY] - Nonna is well known for her calm and gentle but cold personality and for her loyalty and specific relationship to Katyusha; Nonna is Katyusha's closest co-worker, and she does everything Katyusha asks of her, because she recognise Katyusha as a special person, usually without hesitation or protest, most notoriously giving her a piggyback ride to compensate for Katyusha's small height. Despite this, she is not above making fun of her on occasions, same as Katyusha often make fun of Nonna, it is fairly clear that only Nonna could get away with such behavior without inviting Katyusha's wrath, as their relationship is very close, very similar to that of a mother and daughter, despite the fact that Katyusha is except for certain specific situations ultimately in charge. Aside from Katyusha, Nonna's only known friendship is with Klara, a transfer student from a Russian school to whom she generally speaks in her mother-language —often annoying Katyusha, who cannot speak Russian. In the official spin-off manga Motto Love Love Sakusen Desu!, she's also shown to be very protective of Katyusha and literally acts like Katyusha's mother, confirming herself to be Katyusha's parent when others mistook her so, much to Katyusha's frustration (Darjeeling later imitated this behaviour towards Orange Pekoe). Together with Nishizumi Maho she's also the only one in the series who Katyusha actually fears and have respect to. When she thinks Nonna is angry, as Katyusha literally begged for forgiveness when she accidentally poked Nonna's eyes while having a piggyback ride, after finding out Nonna was keeping some sort of "Katyusha Diary" (though based on the series itself, it's most likely just a log of Katyusha's cute, baby-like moments). "Katyusha Diary" is good example of practical manifestations of Nonna's emotions to Katyusha. Writing of "Katyusha Diary" is Nonna's favouriteactivity. She spend much time and effort to take materials for it. It is found she is willing to get Katyusha in to unpleasant situations to secretly take some photos of her in some "cute" situations. She often secretly take photos of Katyusha. Since Klara's father have big position in Russian state bureaucracy, Nonna take from her photos of Katyusha as a baby with Klara's father get from information office.

The reason why Nonna carries Katyusha piggyback is shown in the Saga of Pravda manga: when Katyusha (not yet a commander) failed to get her strategy proposal brought to the teammates, because the staff thought of her as a little girl, Nonna lifted Katyusha onto her shoulders, saying, "By this way, no one will think of you as little girl anymore."

Her composure is absolute that she is never seen to raise her voice or lose her temper; everything she does is with the same measured grace and calculated resolve.
