Himari Ishikura
Class no Daikirai
Himari Ishikura is a supporting character in the light novel and anime series "I'm Getting Married to a Girl I Hate in My Class." A third-year high school student with a striking Gyaru appearance, she is the childhood best friend of Akane Sakuramori – and secretly in love with Akane's husband, Saito Houjou. Half-American and half-Japanese, Himari endured racist bullying over her natural blonde hair as a child until Akane defended her, cementing their lifelong bond. Behind her bright, cheerful, and socially magnetic exterior lies a young woman grappling with her mother's death, her father's remarriage, and a desperate loneliness that drives her possessive love for Saito. Her arc traces the painful journey from jealous schemer to someone capable of accepting loss while holding onto hope.
