Nana Futami

A woman who writes a serialized manga about shogi Japanese chess in a girls manga magazine. She is 25 years old. She is a rookie manga artist whose current work is her first serialization and was Takizawas assistant until the serialization was decided. She is shy and paranoid and often receives various criticisms from her assistant Mizuki Hazama. She is trusted by Kaede Sato the editor in charge of the series because she always manages to produce work of a certain quality or higher even when the schedule is tight. She is also known as a genius among her collaborators such as Sato and Hazama but Nana Futami herself evaluates herself as less than ordinary.
