“	Liking a person who does good deeds is totally natural, totally right. But under some specific timings and circumstances, any number of 'likes' will never become love. Not all 'likes' can be called love..	”

Kobachi Osaragi (大仏おさらぎ こばち, Osaragi Kobachi) is a supporting character in the series. She is a second-year student at Shuchi'in Academy and member of the Public Morals Committee. She is Miko Iino's former best friend and one of The Impossible Girls.

Origin

Kobachi's name was derived from the Stone Begging Bowl of the Buddha (仏の御石の鉢), the object from The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter that Ishidzukuri no Miko (Miko's counterpart) had been tasked with collecting.

Appearance

Kobachi is a beautiful young girl with collarbone-length black hair that is styled to have its tied ends rest on her left shoulder and wears round glasses that have been with her since childhood, which obscure her eyes.

When in Shuchi'in Academy uniform, she wears a yellow armband on her left arm to distinguish herself as a member of the Public Morals Committee.

She is considered very attractive by her fellow freshmen and classmates, and boys often wait at the school gate to ask her out.

Personality

Kobachi is a girl of few words and an astute observer who is very caring to Miko Iino that she has been looking out for her for over a decade due to her gullible nature.

As member of the Public Morals Committee, she also has a fine sense of justice, however not as intense as Miko's.

She has great confidence in her beauty and despite the fact that there's always guys waiting for her at the school gate, she doesn't mind them fawning over her.

She has a hidden perverted side, showing interest in a confiscated Boy's Love (BL) magazine and describing the idea of sexual immorality in the Student Council as "a pretty hot situation".

History

Kobachi has studied in Shuchi'in since primary school and has always been a trusted friend of Miko Iino. She supported her numerous times during Student Council President Elections and remained loyal despite her failing to win any of it.

At some point during the preparation for the Devoted Hearts Festival, she began dating Kazeno. Sometime after the Christmas Eve, they broke up because they weren't on the same page.

Later on, she "borrowed" the report on Yu Ishigami's incident with Ko Ogino in middle school from the Student Council and brought it to Tsubame Koyasu's attention.

Etymology

• The name Kobachi means "small" (こ) (ko) and "bowl" (ばち) (bachi).
• Kobachi's surname Daibutsu means "big, great" (大) (dai) and "Buddha" (仏) (butsu).
  • Her last name is written as Daibutsu, but it is read as Osaragi.

Trivia

• In the fanbook, Kobachi is the only character who was listed as fatherless.
