Hanamaru Kunikida/Yohane the Parhelion

Hanamaru (ハナマル Hanamaru) is one of the main characters in Yohane the Parhelion.

Personality
Hanamaru is a kind girl who is always supportive of her friends no matter what situation they're in. She has always admired Yohane's talent for singing since she was a little girl. She loves anything delicious and makes a living selling homemade sweets.

As she is Yohane's childhood friend, she is the first character who helps her break out of her shell, making other friends as well and loving her hometown again.

Etymology

 * The name Hanamaru means "flower, blossom" (花) (hana) and "round, circle, pills, purity, suffix for ship names, complete" (丸) (maru), in which her character symbol consists of a spiral and a flower.

Trivia

 * As with all of the main characters, Hanamaru can be considered as a "mirror" to her original counterpart:
 * She is much nicer to Yohane, while the original Hanamaru tends to tease her occasionally.
 * While she's a bookworm in the original series, this Hanamaru is a cook.
