Ryoko Otonashi

Internal Monologue "I'm such a screw-up... I wanted to be useful and thought I was being pushed aside... but they were just being considerate." Her Trust in Yasuke "I don't need a cure. If my memories suddenly came back... I wouldn't need to see him anymore. And that would be the worst thing that could possibly happen." Defining the Amnesiac State "I can't remember anything from before I lost my memory, so it's not like I have anything to compare it to. That's why I don't see my forgetfulness as a disadvantage... it's just a part of who I am." Severe Anterograde and Retrograde Amnesia: She forgets her past and the events happening around her, frequently within minutes. Because of this, she relies on a diary she calls the "Memory Notebook" to track her life and surroundings. Carefree and Optimistic: Despite her condition, she has a "natural cheerfulness" and doesn't view her amnesia as a disadvantage. She uses her forgetfulness as a defense mechanism to detach herself from stressful or dangerous situations.Deep Attachment to Yasuke Matsuda: Because her past is a blank slate, her feelings remain procedural; she barely remembers events but is deeply, constantly fixated on and devoted to her childhood friend, Yasuke. Eccentric and Airheaded: Her constant forgetfulness gives her trouble concentrating, causing others to view her as a bit slow or dumb. She has a strange laugh and occasionally feels disconnected from the world. Hidden Ultimate Talent: Unbeknownst to her due to the memory loss, she naturally possesses the Ultimate Analyst (Super High School Level Analytical Prowess). This grants her superhuman analytical skills and a sharp intuition to sense talent, hope, and despair in those around her. Fun fact: The only person she can remember is Yasuke. Yasuke Matsuda, Yasuke Matsuda is Ryoko Otonashi's best friend. Although, Yasuke Matsuda is blunt to her but in the inside he is protective and caring.
