Touka Tsukioka

Background

Touka is the firstborn and main heir of the current generation of the Tsukioka family. Thus, she lived a life of absolute luxury, which included many expensive and extravagant gifts, enjoying trips to private estates throughout Japan and private lessons from top-level teachers and instructors. She rarely, if ever, left her family's private property in any meaningful capacity, leaving her completely unaware of how things worked or happened in the outside world. Otoha says that when she was a student at Kumon-mi Academy, on Touka's first day she was in an exclusive class with dedicated teachers and other benefits, and Touka herself admits that she had never been in a class with other girls before. Sensei met her one day during her visit to the Osako dojo. After the dissolution of Kumon-mi Academy, she remained in the estate as there is no mention of her transferring to Kumon-mi High School. After Nodoka and Otoha joined Sensei's class, Makoto informed him that he would be accepting two more girls with special circumstances. One of them was the daughter of the city's richest family, as he was specifically requested by the girl's mother, who he could confirm was Tsubasa, although at the time he didn't understand why she wanted him to become her daughter's teacher, given what she knew about him. Soon Touka joined the class.

Characteristics

At first, Touka comes across as a stereotypical rich girl, a description she admits fits her “depressingly well.” She is highly educated, articulate, status oriented, values herself and her family highly, gets easily upset when she doesn't get her way, uses money or her status in an attempt to get special treatment, lacks any real life experience to the point that she struggles with common household appliances such as the vending machine, and is quite trusting when learning something new about the outside world. Most of these qualities are a result of her sheltered life, but once she started attending sensei's classes and spending more time with other girls, these qualities either showed less or disappeared completely. Even though she had many things thanks to her wealth, the one thing she didn't have was friends. Because of her status, she was unable to make a single friend at her old school, and because of her reputation and first impression, she had difficulty getting close to the girls in Sensei's class. As a result, she felt lonely in the first days. This is a big reason why she was happy whenever she was included in social interaction. This is another quality that has become less common over time, although it is a big reason why she takes a liking to Yasu, who has an even harder time making friends. After the initial barrier of her status is gone, Touka reveals that she is in fact a kind, open, and mature person. Her kindness is both her greatest strength and her greatest weakness, as it makes her an easy target for games, which Sensei loves to do whenever she gives him the opportunity, but it also helps her overcome her initial impression as a "princess" and she grows closer with some of their peers. Touka is also quick to adapt to new situations, as she was able to break away from most of her unpleasant habits and adapt to Sensei's personality and sarcasm in a short time.

Relationship: Sensei

Due to his behavior and disrespect, Touka initially disliked him and only reluctantly accepted him as her teacher because her mother expected it of her. Her opinion changed as she spent more time with him, moving from disliking him to accepting him as a decent person and even enjoying his company. She has to endure three repeated jokes from him: inappropriate comments about her body, taking advantage of her naivety, and calling her by the wrong name. The first irritates her the most, the second occurs rarely but still bothers her when it does, and the third irritates her the least, not even bothering her at times. There is no concrete evidence yet that she has any romantic feelings for Sensei, although some of her behavior during the tourist trilogy beginning with "A Commoner's Summer Journey" and "Somewhere Far From Here" indicates that she may , wants to get closer to him on some level.
