| “ | How's it feel to have a wish that you've been making for over a hundred years... finally be granted? | ” |
— Tsukasa to Sakura on her accomplishing her end of the deal so that he will grant her wish, Chapter 92
| ||
Nanamine Sakura (七峰桜) is a hundred-year old Ghost/Supernatural currently haunting Kamome Gakuen, and one of the overarching antagonist of the series, alongside Yugi Tsukasa and The Entity within him. She made a contract with Tsukasa in order for him to assist her with obtaining a wish she has made for over a century.
Her current wish is unknown, but most likely involves leaving Kamome Gakuen's bounds after a hundred years of being trapped in it. Likewise, how she came to be trapped in Kamome Gakuen for a hundred years remains unknown as well.
As implied by Akane Sumire, she also seems to be the appointer and overarching boss for the Seven Mysteries. Whether this tampers or interferes with Hanako's leadership or the activties of the Seven Mysteries remains unknown.
| “ | I've always wanted to talk to you. You see... you and I... we're in the same position. I think we could be good friends. | ” |
Nanamine Sakura (七峰桜) is a 3rd-year student at Kamome Academy's High School division. She made a contract with Tsukasa and is now bound to him as his assistant. She is a member of the school's Broadcasting Club.
Appearance
Sakura has green hair styled in an asymmetrical bob cut with very short bangs. She has two pieces of hair left in front of her ears to frame her face, and two more long sections that extend to her chest. She also has two braids that extend from the crown of her head down to her ears. Her eyes are green with yellow flecks. She has notable eyelashes and always has her eyes half-closed, giving her a somewhat drowsy or disinterested look.
She wears Kamome Academy's winter uniform with a red gem brooch above the front bow. Unlike Nene's uniform, Sakura's is long-sleeved. She wears yellow stockings with brown stripes and garters. In the anime, her socks are brown and lack garters.
Sakura is noted to be quite beautiful, mainly by Nene. She is said to have a doll like appearance. Sakura also appears to be quite slender and seems to be taller than Nene.
Interestingly, both of girls share aesthetic similarities, like their short bangs, brooches, and irregular stockings.
Tea Party Outfit
During the tea party arc, Sakura is wearing a long, sparkling black dress with long, bishop sleeves. On her sleeves she has two yellow buttons, and seems to be wearing a frilly white undershirt that can be seen peaking out of her sleeves and behind her neckline. On her neck, she also has a matching white cravat with a red gem brooch in the middle of it, just like on her school outfit. She is also wearing boots, which are black in the manga but brown in the anime.
Male Appearance
When transformed into a male body, she has a sharper face, wider shoulders and burlier legs and arms. She is also generally taller and somewhat more muscly. Her eyes are smaller and without eyelashes, and her hair is a lot shorter, with two long chunks of hair on either side of her face. During the chapter, she requested a male uniform, which is a standard kamome gakuen male uniform, but with her signature red gem brooch. [1]
Maid Outfit
In Chapter 103, Sakura dons the costume of a Maid as part of Class 3-B's Maid and Butler Cafe exhibit. She still wears the same stockings and garters as her school uniform, but with the rest of her outfit being a short-skirt maid costume. She has a ribbon on the back of her costume, and wears a fluffy headband on her head. Her signature red gem brooch is located above the collar, as it is in the rest of her outfits.

Personality
Sakura seems to be an aloof person, and as such does not show much emotion. She rarely changes expressions from her usual deadpan appearance, although she does break this trend in order to smile during her first meeting with Nene and when she becomes annoyed with Natsuhiko and Tsukasa. For the most part she seems to deal with her involvement in the supernatural by simply detaching her emotions from it, for example thinking of Tsukasa as little more than a cat. She finds many of Tsukasa's actions distasteful, but has to listen to them regardless.
She enjoys Yashiro Nene's company and treats her with hospitality and kindness, but is also willing to double cross her at Tsukasa's behest, indicating she may not be terribly honest. While she may legitimately desire Nene's friendship, she also seems to keep herself distant in order to carry out Tsukasa's requests.
Abilities
Contract-bound to Tsukasa
It is unclear currently what favor she gained by being in a contract with Tsukasa. It is also unknown what her specific goal or wish is, however, it is most likely related to leaving Kamone Academy's bounds.
By association with Tsukasa, and due to her status as a supernatural herself, she is able to see other supernatural beings. In addition, she is able to communicate with kokujoudai as it brings back results or information to her.
