Hansode Shiranui is a freshman of Class 1, later Class -13, and the granddaughter of Hakoniwa Academy's Chairman. Zenkichi's best friend, he is apparently the only person who can get along with her. Even though she is the smallest of the main characters, Shiranui has a very large appetite and is constantly seen eating. Normally, she is a very cheerful girl, but she is shown to have a dark side and is brutally tactless. Shiranui harbors a hidden resentment against Medaka and claims she has no friends and, does not desire them. Because of the antagonism that exists between them, Medaka initially asks Shiranui to become the Vice-President of the Student Council, though Shiranui refuses. While she prefers to remain on the sidelines observing and is extraordinarily capable of removing herself from any danger, Shiranui elects to join Class -13 after encountering Kumagawa. Despite her claims to not care for anyone nor having any friends, it seems that she has strong feelings for Zenkichi.

This picture displays Medaka Kurokami after she passes on her role as Student Council President at the end of the Medaka’s Successor Arc and becomes a normal student. Now sporting a new outfit and hairstyle, Medaka runs wild around Hakoniwa Academy, decimating the various sports clubs, and leading several students to complain to the new Student Council President, Zenkichi Hitoyoshi, asking him to put a stop to her antics. Zenkichi promises to talk with Medaka, but tells the students that they should be glad Medaka has finally become a kid like them. Medaka has so far kept this outfit for the duration of the Jet Black Bride Arc.

"Before I can be happy I wish to be free. I am so happy, because, for the first time I can fight for myself."
