Ritsu Tainaka
Ritsu Tainaka is a drummer. She proclaims herself as the president of the light music club.
She has an ambiguous yet upbeat personality, but often has trouble remembering important club activities and announcements, and gets constantly yelled at by Mio after being reminded by Nodoka after forgetting to send in important forms concerning the club. Ritsu is cheerful, often likes making jokes and is sarcastic most of the time. She usually brainstorms for ideas to earn more money and for the club’s success. She first claimed she chose to play the drums because they are “cool”, but in reality, she has trouble playing instruments which involve intricate finger movements, such as the bass, guitar and keyboard, which she later admitted. She has known Mio since elementary school and often teases her whenever she is cowering from something and has the opportunity to do so. Ritsu is always on the go and will stop at nothing for the success of the light music club. Ritsu has shoulder-length brown hair, with her bangs pulled back with a yellow hairband, and gold-colored eyes.
