[Hoshizaki Kokone]

A high school girl who likes anime and comics and is tired of her real life.

I'm a big fan of the comic “Eternal Liberator,” which has also been animated, and I want to be a strong and kind person like the heroine “Lena.” (must be difficult)

I like cats and bean daifuku.

I sometimes go to the intersection in front of Abeno Harukas when I can't sleep at night.
