- Sakura, sowing seeds of jealousy

Sakura (桜) is a supporting characters of the Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro manga series. She is is a first year high school student and one of Nagatoro's friend. Sakura is a sweet, kind and yet very flirtatious girl who adopts a  style of fashion and is part of a 'cool kids' clique, together with Gamo-chan, Yoshi and Nagatoro herself. She often took part in her friends' mayhem but, regardless of this, is always extremely friendly towards Senpai.

Her surname is currently unknown.

Appearance
Sakura is a cute, short stature, first year high schooler with medium-length (chest length at the beginning), wavy platinum blonde hair - although it is implied that she dyes them, since sometimes a slightly darker regrowth is visible - and her bangs pinned to both sides of her face with a pair of white hairclips. She has a fully tanned skin and large, inquisitive brown eyes, which were at first depicted as droopy and with noticeable eyebags, hinting some kind of whom she apparently later overcame, as her eyes were since shown round, bright and without eyebags. Her eyebrows are thicker than any other characters, and dyed blonde as well. She is not too much taller than Nagatoro and has a lean, well-proportioned and slender physique with a large bust size, considering her size and built. She seem to be quite fit but not as athletic as her friends even due to her laziness. Sakura often wears a tired or delicate smile which signifies her laid back personality.

A  (or gal), specifically a, she typically wears her school uniform consisting of a white button up shirt (with one flap always out of her skirt and collar never buttoned) and a shortened navy blue skirt completed with a pair of sneakers and. However, in summer she wears a short-sleeved shirt in her uniform.

When not at school she usually sports an extremely stylish and elaborate choose of clothing.

Personality
Sakura appear as an easy-going, calm, level-headed, laid back, sweet and lovely individual with an innate predisposition to be flirty, to the point to having a reputation of being an accomplished seductress among her clique of friends. Compared to the other girls, Sakura is the kindest of them all - even appearing somewhat coy at times - and the only one who can't be described as an outright bully but rather a teaser, whose innuendo toward Senpai appear to be for the most accidental, since she openly sees him as a friend and even goes to him to be comforted when she feels scared or sad. Also, after realizing that Nagatoro has feeling for him and vice versa, Sakura stopped to assertively tease him and started to support their growing relationship much like her friends. However, being a master in girlish flirt poses, she retain her habit to use them on every boy she talks to, Senpai included.

Despite having been described by her character profile as having an "haraguro" personality, meaning a two-faced attitude, usually cute on the outside but cruel on the inside, Sakura has always been shown as nothing else but nice and, even if she does indeed posses a manipulative side and has demonstrated to be perfectly capable of sowing seeds of jealousy among group of boys or use them for her profit, she doesn't appear to do it with a malevolent intention or to cause anyone harm. Proving this, she gets really distressed and breaks into tears whenever serious consequences ensue from her action, being quick to recognize her errors and make amends with the ones she hurt, as she demonstrated by befriending one of the group of boys she tried to break up. She is also very forgiving, having ultimately forgiven her own stalker. Being very curious and inquisitive, Sakura has an innate ability in "reading people" and understanding what they really think, thus knowing what to appeal to is the main reason she can manipulate others so easily.

She is the most popular among boys out of all of her friends and likely the only one who actually has previous relationships or some kind of experience, albeit it's unknown to what extent; she once stated to be single in a way that implied she has at least one ex. However it is also lightly suggested she may have sapphic tendencies, thus being an in the closet or, since she twice blushed and had excited reactions while looking at the President's body.

Sakura is very kind and helpful to the people she likes and has demonstrated to be the most emotionally collected girl in her group of friends, having an hippie-alike and pacifist life philosophy according which "mankind are all brothers and sisters" and "should all make up and have fun". She is also strictly against following the "an eye for an eye" belief, as when Gamo-chan suggested Nagatoro to pose in the nude in order to beat the President, she quoted said principe saying that "lewdness for lewdness" will only bring sadness; despite her friends look at her as a "weirdo" for said convictions. Sakura is also a gamer girl and a VR enthusiast.

She is also very athletic, though not as much as her friends, and seems to be a fan of wrestling, as well as stronger than she appear and quite good at running. Despite always looking tired, lazy and procrastinating - even having a bad academic performance -, Sakura is implied to be actually a very hard-working young woman since those are likely consequences of exhaustion.

Sakura is very polite and courteous, she always refers to everyone using appropriate suffixs - including her closest friends -, so she addresses Senpai adding at his nickname the suffix "-kun" (くん), which in Japan is generally used when referring to men in general, male children/teenagers, or male friends.
