霧島 茱萸子

Freeloader/poster girl at lnui Baths. She's the same age as Keiji. She has a cheerful disposition and boundless positivity. Her one flaw: her personality does a 180 when she's piloting a robot. 

She's a mecha athlete, who's even appeared in national tournaments. She'd been thought of as the hope of the Mecha sporting world, but had to go on hiatus after sustaining an injury during a match. She's currently helping out at her cousins' place, lnui Baths, and recovering through physiotherapy. Kumiko has known Keiji for a few years, and decided to work as his assistant at the workshop to get more hands-on experience with work mechs.
 
She's thinking of making her big comeback in the world of combat mechs someday. She's also searching for a "place she can return to."
