Personality
Koyomi Kanou is a quiet and reserved individual with a strong dedication to her goal of becoming a writer. She is highly focused and disciplined in her craft, often prioritizing her writing above other activities. However, she is also self-conscious about her work and rarely allows others to read it, showing a level of insecurity despite her passion for storytelling.
Background
Koyomi Kanou attended the same middle school as Yuu Koito and Akari Hyuuga. She has long admired the elusive fiction writer Renma Hayashi (林 錬磨, Hayashi Renma), whose works have been a significant source of inspiration for her own writing aspirations.
Etymology
Koyomi’s surname, Kanou (叶), means “leaf.” The kanji 叶 is commonly associated with the verbs 叶える (kanaeru), which means “to grant (a request)” or “to answer (a prayer),” and 叶う (kanau), meaning “to fulfill (a dream or aspiration)” or “to come true.” These meanings reflect themes of wishes and aspirations, which align with Koyomi’s dedication to pursuing her dream of becoming a writer.
