Taiga Aisaka

Taiga Aisaka is Ryuuji's small but formidable classmate, nicknamed the "Palmtop Tiger" for her short stature and explosive temper. Clumsy, brutally honest, and quick to lash out, she finds social interaction difficult despite her doll-like appearance. Living on her own and lacking domestic skills, she increasingly relies on Ryuuji's domestic skills. At the start of the story, she has a crush on his best friend, Yuusaku Kitamura, so she and Ryuuji agree to help one another pursue their respective crushes.
