Haruka Konoe

Haruka Konoe (近江 遥 Konoe Haruka) is the younger sister of Kanata Konoe. She first appeared as a minor character in Love Live! School idol festival.

Background
Haruka is a first year at Shinonome Institute and the representative of her class. She is part of her school's idol group. Her sister was part of the idol group with her until she transferred to Nijigasaki High School. She works with the Love Live! School idol festival app.

It is currently unknown if she will appear in the Nijigasaki High School anime. Her only canonical appearance outside of being an idol in the School idol festival app is in Kanata's fourteenth Bond Episode in Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS. Haruka has otherwise only been mentioned by Kanata, throughout Nijgasaki-related stories across both apps.

Personality
In stark contrast to her older sister, Haruka is much more energetic and hardworking. Before Kanata transferred to Nijigasaki, Haruka would often be the one to wake up her when she fell asleep at school. Haruka is often greatly irritated by Kanata's laziness, especially when it causes the two of them to be late.

Haruka also appears to believe in having perfect behaviour and manners, as she once said that she needed to "do something about" the personality quirks of the other members of her idol group, as if they were things that needed fixing, and once criticized Kanata for leaving her clothes around, stating that it is "un-ladylike" to do so. This is likely the main reason for Haruka's responsibility and dependability.

As mentioned by Kanata, Haruka is very supportive of Kanata being a school idol, and her praise is what motivates Kanata to be a school idol.

Notes & Trivia

 * Unlike the rest of the protagonist's siblings, Haruka has a different eye color from her sister.
