In this article, we'll discuss about characters in Bakuon!!. Check out the full review below!
10. Yume Sakura
Yume Sakura is Hane's younger sister, mature, responsible, and enjoys taking care of housework. She's often Hane's confidant when it comes to motorcycles.
Although Yume doesn't understand much about motorcycles, she's supportive and always gives Hane the best advice. When the new school year begins, she and Chisame attend the same high school as Yume.
9. Onsa's Father
Onsa's father owns a dealership that sells used motorcycles at affordable prices. He has a large collection of motorcycles from various brands. He also provides spare parts for motorcycle modifications.
Although Onsa's father appears laid-back and lazy, he has extensive experience and connections. For example, he is good friends with Rin's father. He also worked as a mechanic for Kinya Nakano, a MotoGP racer.
8. Tazuko
Tazuko is the principal of Okanoue Girls' High School. She usually appears elegant and dignified in front of her students. However, she can be a bit silly around Raimu-senpai.
Tazuko has been good friends with Raimu since they were young. She greatly admires Raimu's abilities as a racer. One of her funny habits is that she likes to bet on racing competitions, but her luck is very bad.
7. Hayakawa
Hayakawa is the Minowa family's personal butler who has served for many years. He is friendly and polite in his speech. He is also very impressed with Hane and her friends' enthusiasm for motorcycles.
When Hijiri couldn't ride a motorcycle and didn't have a driver's license, Hayakawa used to take her around on her Ducati sidecar. She's not afraid to take reckless actions that severely damage her motorcycle.
6. Chisame Nakano
Chisame Nakano is a new student who joins Hane and her friends' motorcycle club. She has achieved success as a professional racer, frequently winning various racing competitions.
However, Chisame is so insecure about her height that she doesn't want to ride a motorcycle on regular roads. Thanks to the support of her friends, Chisame has become more confident. She decides to ride a Honda PCX 150.
5. Hijiri Minowa
Hijiri Minowa is a girl from a wealthy family. Funnily enough, she's very interested in being a bad kid. That's why she decides to hang out with Hane and her friends in the motorcycle club.
Hijiri wasn't very good at riding motorcycles at first. She then fell in love with the Honda Super Cub after seeing its prowess. However, she modified her motorcycle by adding two rear wheels to prevent her from falling.
4. Raimu Kawasaki
Raimu Kawasaki is a very mysterious senpai and a Kawasaki motorcycle enthusiast. She always wears a helmet so her face isn't visible. She's also quiet and prefers to communicate through writing.
Although Raimu is the same age as the principal, she still faithfully wears her high school uniform and hangs out in the club room. In the past, she participated in a racing competition. However, her motorcycle suddenly exploded in the middle of the track.
3. Onsa Amano
Next, there's a tomboy girl named Onsa Anamo who loves Yamaha. She rides a Yamaha SEROW225W. She also has extensive knowledge of motorcycles and skills as a mechanic.
Onsa was the first person to get Hane interested in riding motorcycles. She often helps Hane whenever she's in trouble. Furthermore, she often bickers with Rin because they have opposing views.
2. Hane Sakura
Hane Sakura was initially a very innocent girl who knew nothing about motorcycles. However, everything changed after she met Onsa. She became interested in riding motorcycles to the point where she even took the test to get her driver's license.
During the exam, Hane rode a Honda CB400SF Hyper VTEC Spec III. She felt comfortable on the bike, to the point where she became a Honda fan. She decided to buy a similar pink model from the Onsa family dealership.
1. Rin Suzunoki
In my opinion, Rin Suzunoki is the perfect fit for first place. She's incredibly cute and has a silly, childish personality. She also has difficulty expressing her feelings openly to her friends.
Rin rides a Suzuki GSX400S Katana motorcycle, which her father gave her. As a die-hard Suzuki fan, she gets very angry when someone badmouths her bike. Conversely, she's very happy when someone compliments her bike.
