Kirara Hazama

Kirara Hazama (狭間 綺羅々) is a student in Korosensei's class 3-E in Kunugigaoka Junior High School.

Appearance
Hazama is a slender girl with wavy, shoulder-length black hair and thick eyelashes. As such, she comes off as very gloomy and melancholic. She believes part of the reason she looks the way she does is due to her mother being prone (likely to or liable to suffer from, do, or experience something, typically something regrettable or unwelcome) to screaming fits thus preventing her from looking cute like her given name.

Seven years since graduation, she is seen with much longer hair, reaching to just above her waist. She also has a gentler, more relaxed facial expression, shown when she smiles gently at a young girl who asks her a question.

Personality
Hazama is a quiet girl who loves reading, preferring to sit in the shade with a book rather than swim during summer gym classes and wants to become a librarian. She even recommended to Itona the novel, The Count of Monte Cristo, though accidentally spoiled the ending. She prefers dark stories and horror novels, and because of this also has an interest in the occult which she displayed when she attempted to use a curse on Korosensei.

Oddly, she also seems to take great pleasure in scaring and disturbing others, admitting that she'd been scaring people on roadsides since she was a child. Her script for Class E's play was also very grim and depressing, taking pride in disturbing the school so much that they lost their appetites.

It is hinted she has some home troubles, her mother being hysterical and prone to screaming fits when she meets something she doesn't like.

Abilities
Marksmanship: Kirara is placed joint third in marksmanship among the girls, along with Rio Nakamura. They both scored 79/200 in test in June.

Writing: As a girl who likes to read, Kirara's literacy skills make her a talented enough been tasked with writing the script for Class E's school play.

Intimidation: Ever since she was a little girl, Kirara has been incredibly frightening and scaring people.

Ryōma Terasaka
During the Assassination Test of Courage, Korosensei paired Ryōma with Takuya and Kirara. Way back when, Hazama used to be even more shut-in in her world of books than she is now. The Terasaka Group were originally mates she made after she ran away from home once, but now whenever she gets a chance to make a calm, venomous Tsukkomi against whatever unexpected uproar the three idiots came up with, she becomes delighted.

Takuya Muramatsu
During the Assassination Test of Courage, Korosensei paired Ryōma with Takuya and Kirara.

Taisei Yoshida
Hazama considers Taisei to be the most logical of the Terasaka boys, though she still believes that they are all idiots who's thoughts are beyond logical comprehension.

Hinano Kurahashi
Her nerves don’t get unsettled by reckless ventures, so recently, she experienced a mad rush when her pet tarantula birthed a large number of children. This led to an unusual situation in which the very sunny Kurahashi Hinano went to the home of the very gloomy Hazama to help out. She has also stated that the darkness begins to evaporate when she's around her.
