Bio
The protagonist. Kahoko has a slim figure, with scarlet hair and brown eyes. She is very friendly and is very honest. She is a second year at Seisou Academy and is a General Education department. Hino never played or touched a violin in her life until she meets the strange fairy, Lili. She is one of the few people who can see Lili and because of that, she was chosen to participate. Since meeting Lili, her whole world's been turned upside down. She now is a participant in the concours, which at first, she was really hesitant to participate. Because she's a 'normal' student, many people in the music department weren't too fond of her participating at first. It was only after the 2nd Selection that everyone was beginning to notice her talent, despite placing last in the 1st Selection. Though at first reluctant about playing the violin, she soon becomes more in depth with her music. She is a polite and considerate girl who puts other's feelings before her own, though at times she can appear rather naive, especially in music. The boys involved in the concours have obvious crushes on her,though she cannot figure that out. She lives in an apartment with her mother and older sister.
