Relationships

Kotomi Komiyama

Itō is almost always seen in some sort of scenario related to Kotomi. In Chapter 117 Itō states that they have been friends for two years as of that point.

In Chapter 134, Itō tries and fails to calm Kotomi down after the girl has become openly envious of Yoshida. Itō's inner monologue implies that this is not the first time Kotomi has done something crazy or creepy and has had to be saved.

Tomoko Kuroki

Itō and Tomoko seem to interact very little, and it is unknown what they think of each other. Itō remembers Tomoko trying to give her a fist bump back at the entrance exam in Chapter 110.

Futaki

The currently enigmatic Futaki sits next to Itō. Itō has not bothered to get to know her and, presumably, Futaki has not either. However, during the field trip to the amusement park Futaki wins a badge hitting all of the targets at the shooting gallery, while Kotomi does poorly and makes excuses worthy of Tomoko. Without a word, Futaki hands the badge to Itō and walks away.

Trivia

• Hikari (光) means "light."
• Itō plays a trumpet and whenever she can practice alone she usually goes to a specific spot after school on the rooftop.

Memorable quotes

• "We've been friends for two years now, you know. It's kind of weird how just being able to play some of the Lotte's songs makes you suddenly see me in a new light." - Itō to Kotomi
