Shizuku Osaka

Shizuku Osaka is one of the main characters of Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. She is a first year at Nijigasaki High School. Her image color is pale blue. She is a member of A・ZU・NA, a unit under the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club.

Background
She formerly attended Seiran High School. Along with Kanata Konoe and Emma Verde, she works with the Love Live! School idol festival app.

She lives in Kamakura, far from Nijigasaki High School. Shizuku is an only child, and has a female golden retriever named Ophelia.

Personality
Shizuku is a level-headed and mature honor student. She is considered a traditional Japanese beauty, and is quite timid at times.

As seen in the Niji-Yon 4koma, she likes dogs. Shizuku can be easy to tease, however she is able to stand up for herself and others if teasing goes too far. She can sometimes be observed giving a stern talking-to to Kasumi, someone who is the opposite of Shizuku in terms of maturity.

Due to her responsible nature, Shizuku is also inclined to take on too much responsibility and keep her thoughts to herself. She worries about things quite often.

Shizuku is passionate about acting, and is very skilled at getting into character. She is also a fan of old movies and novels since she was little. However, this passion leaded her to be anxious because she felt she was the only child who liked these things.

Clubs and Hobbies
Shizuku enjoys acting and performing in plays, and is a member of the school's theater club. During her days off she might spend 4 hours on personalized voice training, and on occasion might also imagine various ideas for plays that can be performed with the other girls. Shizuku has brainstormed fantasy scripts for The North Wind and the Sun from Aesop's Fables, and The Tale of Princess Kaguya.

Trivia

 * Shizuku fulfills the cool attribute of the NijiGaku first years.
 * Shizuku was originally introduced to Love Live! School Idol Festival mobile game exclusively as a N rarity character on April 16, 2013.
 * Prior to any announced plans of a new Love Live! project, Bushiroad held multiple seemingly inconsequential popularity polls on the LLSIF app in which participants could vote for their favorite N rarity character.
 * By the end of this campaign, Emma Verde finished in first place, Shizuku Osaka finished in second place, and Kanata Konoe finished in third place.
 * Later in 2017, when the Perfect Dream Project (temporary name of Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS) was announced, Bushiroad revealed that the three N rarity characters with the most votes from the previous polls would be fleshed out and added as new school idols for the project.[​1]​​
 * This included new artwork and designs that were more consistent with the style and quality typical for the main cast members in µ's and Aqours, as well as the promise of casting official voice actors.
