Tokiwa Kano

Tokiwa Kano (常磐 華乃, Tokiwa Kano) is one of the 5 main characters of . She is the second member of the Phantom Creathieves and serves as their visual strategist while in the student council she's a secretary alongside Asumi. Her special skill is drawing, and even has a magical brush which allows her to either heal or hurt, depending on the colour it's dipped in. Additionally, she's into sewing and is good enough at making outfits for special occasions.

Her favourite colour is orange as it represents optimism.

Background
Kano is in third year of Sentama Gakuen. She is taller than most girls in the school, and is the tallest in the student council. Even some guys are a bit shorter than her. Despite this, Kano has no prejudice, and height isn't her deal breaker - how one behaves can be. In the student council, she serves as a secretary alongside Asumi. Kano is the kind of person to always help anyone if they have any kind of trouble, whether it is to vent about their problems, have a casual talk with her, or even just seek validation from her. She enjoys a good company and is usually the one to talk the most.

She was the second member to have joined the Phantom Creathieves, her motivation being the sole thrill of not only stealing and looking cool while doing it, but also balancing her high school life and crime life. Even so, she manages to be transparent about it and never speaks about her affiliation with Izumi's gang when in school. The moment she's nowhere to be seen, she further disappears into the crime world, but makes a comeback just before school starts while nobody bats an eye.

Kano is a visual strategist, meaning that after the members (including herself, naturally) scouted out the area they would be working on, she's there to make a visual overview of what they are looking for, who goes where, how they will perform the heist, etc. In that regard, she's Shio's and Izumi's right hand as they are the ones making general plans. Kano also acts as a healer and is usually in defence. Thanks to a magical brush, depending on the colour it's dipped in, she can inflict many effects on others. Just as the Phantom Creathieves' codex tells, she doesn't murder anyone with the brush and she doesn't use black as that insinuates death. Her most used colours are pink which has healing properties and blue which turn into water droplets with every flick of the brush, used as a distraction.

As for her aliases, she insists that her peers don't refer to her as Kano-senpai even though she's the only one in the gang that's in higher grade than everyone else. Instead, they're free to come up with their own nicknames, and all four members have nicknamed her Shika because, in name, it has the same meaning as Kano (both mean "deer" in Japanese), but she can easily be confused with Shika-kun (a character that appears in one of the chapters that gives them a mission to steal a full-spectrum Copic marker set).

Kano is attracted to Izumi and openly flirts with him, but only in the crime world. For instance, she lets him lay his head on her lap when he wants to take a nap as long as they're both bored and Izumi is tired. He also gets complimented by her all the time for the smallest of things. Izumi is also the only one that can refer to her as Hananon, a nickname which Kano devised specifically for him so she can squeal at his cute voice while he's pronouncing it.

She is a ray of sunshine and always optimistic, and won't hesitate to drown anyone in happiness should she find out that they're having a bad day and is surprisingly good at that. She's extra careful around Asumi who suffers from constant mood swings. Her weakness is that, due to her cheerfulness, she can become impatient and would rush her peers often.

She can sew and can take her time of day in order to create costumes that are needed for more advanced heists. Having a brush makes her an artist, too. She enjoys drawing landscapes the most, but for the sake of making a drawing just for Izumi, she's trying to learn how to improve her portraits.

Appearance
Kano wears a grey shirt and grey skirt, like everyone else. Her shirt has an orange collar, and she wears an orange domino mask alongside a grey hat with an orange pattern and a kitten head, making her the only member whose hair colour does not match her favourite colour (even though that's not a requirement). She likes wearing any but monotonous socks. No matter the size, however, she would even wear rainbow socks during a heist.

Same can be said for high school. Kano prefers to wear a flashy pair of socks. Generally, she wears the standard Sentama Academy uniform for girls. It consists of a white blouse, black jacket, black bow tie, a brown belt, a grey-to-black skirt which go a bit over her knees and brown shoes.
