[[File:Hanako_Bad_Ending.png|thumb|181x181px|right|Enraged Hanako]]
Hanako is a quiet and extremely shy girl who is likely to run away when an unfamiliar person tries to make contact with her (e.g [[Hisao Nakai]] on his first day at Yamaku), and also tends to leave classes early due to her severe anxiety. Despite her shy demeanor, she does get along with certain students that she is acquainted with; such as [[Lilly Satou]], [[Shizune Hakamichi]], [[Emi Ibarazaki]] and [[Shiina Mikado|Misha]], more so with Lilly who is her closest friend. Even in spite of her anxiety, Hanako is still willing to try and live her life the best she can, even having the courage to try doing group work with Shizune and Misha despite her being unused to working with them simply because she trusted Hisao enough. 

She is initially very shy and evasive around Hisao, but soon they may[[Hanako's route#Act 3 | become close friends.]] During this time, several facets of Hanako's personality begin to emerge, and it's revealed that some of her favourite activities such as chess, snooker and karaoke, which either require another person or can be done with other people, implying that Hanako isn't antisocial and would on some level enjoy sharing her interests with another person. This is supported by Hanako joining the newspaper club in Lily's route, and she even plans on travelling to Hokkaido independently of Lily with a group of friends. She's also interested in cooking, and while some of her attempts haven't always succeeded, hasn't deterred her from trying to improve.

She is usually very friendly despite not being very outspoken, especially with her close friends. However, she lashes out at Hisao when he tries to get close to her on her birthday if the bad ending is achieved, stating that she hates to be treated like a weak, broken person. Hanako is painfully aware of what other people think of her and in sharp contrast to Misha is self-conscious of social norms, trying her best not to stand out too much. Though she's close to Lily and is reliant on her during social situations, on some level, she resents Lily for coddling her and turns on Hisao during the bad ending, believing that Hisao's attempts to white knight her are no different to Lily's mothering of Hanako despite their good intentions.
