Matsubara Kanon



Matsubara Kanon is a third-year student at Hanasakigawa Girls' High School and was the first to be roped in by Kokoro to become the drummer for Hello, Happy World! She is very clumsy, quick to burst into tears, and has a bad sense of direction.

Outside of the band, she is good friends with Chisato, whom she has known ever since middle school. She also works part-time at the fast food store together with Aya.

Appearance
Kanon has big violet eyes and long, pale blue hair worn loose with a section held in a side-tail with a teal ribbon. She has short bangs and forelocks with a slight curl on end.

Her casual attire is shown to be frilly and feminine.

Personality
Sensible and responsible, Kanon is one of the members within Hello, Happy World! that manages to keep the band running smoothly, although she is likely to space out and start thinking about jellyfish. She is fairly shy and easily flustered, and can become a nervous wreck at the drop of a hat and start crying if she feels overwhelmed. Whenever she gets nervous or overwhelmed she tends to say "fuee".

However, she is also shown to have moments where she is determined and takes matters into her own hands. She is also very caring and kind, as well as hardworking.
