Himeko Kurusugawa

The Solar Priestess, Himeko is a very shy, innocent 16-year-old girl, and the character that receives most of the anime's attention. At first, Himeko has affections for Sōma Ōgami, who is her childhood friend. She starts off considering Chikane a very close friend, although the two very rarely meet outside of secrecy. Himeko is an amateur photographer of some skill, a hobby she developed thanks to the support she receives from Chikane Himemiya. Himeko is initially a shy and timid girl, uncertain of her own worth and abilities. This is mainly because after the death of her birth parents, she was initially adopted by abusive relatives before being moved to other relatives. At school, Himeko seems to have only one friend (except Souma and Chikane), her dorm roommate Makoto. After the destruction of the dorms, when Himeko comes to live with Chikane, she soon gains the enmity of Chikane's female fans at school, a fact she does not deal with well. Despite her timidness, Himeko gradually starts to display great determination and courage. Himeko carries the solar symbol on her chest
