Ami Tsuchiura (土浦(つちうら) 亜実(あみ), Tsuchiura Ami) is a character from Part Threes. She is a 3rd year student, the president of the beautification committee and the culprit behind the braid killer case.

Personality

Ami initially appears to be a confident, resolute and headstrong person, refusing to abandon her style even with the continuing threat of the braid killer. In reality, however, Ami is a person who lacks self confidence, believing that her crush, Uchitori Sanriku, would never notice someone plain like her. Therefore, she devises the plan to scare the other students into giving up their braids, so that she remains as the only one wearing the hairstyle. Ami is a very organized person, and can't stand the school being dirty, so she often cleans the school by herself without any appreciation, Uchitori being one of the few to thank her. Becoming frustrated at all the hair left around on the floor by female students, she arrived at her plan.

Appearance

Ami is a young woman with long black hair tied in a lengthy braid, described by others as majestic. She is shown wearing her school's black sailor uniform with red highlights and a white ribbon.

Background

Ami is a 3rd year student of class 6 and the chairman of the beautification committee. She often cleans the school by herself, and during one such time, Uchitori Sanriku passed by her and, recognizing her efforts, thanked her, making the girl fall for him. Learning about his preference for braids, she begins styling her hair like so, but, lacking in confidence regarding her appearance, devises a plan to scare the female students, discouraging them from wearing their hair like that, in order to capture Uchitori's attention to herself.
