Fūka Sasaki (佐々木 風夏, Sasaki Fūka^?) spends much of her time as an occasional background classmate until revealed to be a friend of Asuka Katō in Chapter 154.

Overview

Affectionately deemed the "Depressed Black-Haired Girl" by WataMote Wikia until she finally receives a name in Chapter 154, Fūka first appears as a distinct but uninterested member of the cheerleaders at the school intramural games. She returns in Chapter 148 as a passenger on Tomoko's train to school, looking similarly disinterested. She is the skilled pitcher Kotomi Komiyama scouts in Chapter 153, only to have her win the game with a two-run home run in Chapter 154 where she receives her name. She reveals her last name in the next chapter.

She is a friend of Asuka Katō and Miho Narita. She and Miho join Katō, Tomoko, and Kaho's study group where a tired Tomoko blurts out that she wants to touch breasts. She is shocked when Katō offers to let Tomoko touch hers during a break. While she first assumes Katō is joking, she inwardly protests that Katō has never made such a joke before. When Katō and Tomoko return from a break together, she wonders if Tomoko actually fondled Katō.

Personality

Little is known about Fūka. Prior to her friends then Katō congratulating her in Chapter 154, she does not speak and her expression seems disinterested, hence her WataMote Wikia nickname. With her friends she is cheerful, and when she joins Katō and Tomoko's study group, she politely introduces herself to Tomoko. She is shocked by Katō's offer to Tomoko, but she does not express it out loud.

Fūka has very long black hair which she puts into a long pony tail. She stands as tall as Katō

Relationships

Tomoko Kuroki

Fūka first introduces herself to Tomoko when she joins her study group with Katō and Kaho; however, she is aware of Tomoko's reputation for being "strange." For her part, Tomoko does not seem to know her.

Asuka Katō

The two do seem to know one another. Katō congratulates her on her beating her class in the softball game, and Fūka suggests that table tennis is not something she would expect her to play. When Katō offers to let Tomoko touch her breasts, Fūka is stunned but then rationalizes that Katō is making a joke only to think that Katō never makes such jokes.

Miho Narita

She congratulates Fūka on her win, and when Fūka declines the invitation to accept their class award, Miho eagerly rushes to the stage. They appear friends in that the two enter the study hall to study together, and when they cannot find an open desk, Fūka asks Katō if they may join them.
