Minami Sagane

Minami Sagane is a second-year student in Shokusen's Culinary Department. From her extreme actions to gain Moriya Satoru's affections, she can be classified as a Yandere.

Appearance
Sagane has platinum-blonde hair that reaches down to her hips tied into two low ponytails, round magenta eyes and thick eyebrows. One side of her ponytails is tied up with a ribbon with a stripe. She is first seen wearing Shokusen's female uniform, consisting of the uniform blouse, a plaid skirt, a tie and a black vest.

Personality
Sagane behaves sweetly and extremely lovingly towards Satoru, but has murderous intents towards others she perceives as a threat to their relationship, like a potential love interest for Satoru.

History
As a young child, Sagane was fascinated with knives, stating that she was "captivated with their silver brilliance".

She went to a kindergarten named "Sakura Kindergarten" and once caused an incident there, involving a teacher. Sagane had named a knife, Maria, and brought it into kindergarten. Seeing that Sagane was holding a knife, the teacher told Sagane to give her the knife and tried to take it away from her, resulting in the teacher getting cut and she bled due to Sagane's desperation to keep it. The young Sagane did not understand why the teacher wanted to take the knife away.

As the teacher was getting treated for her wound, she explained to Sagane why she could not bring a knife to kindergarten and Sagane apologised. The teacher was shocked when she realised that Sagane's apology was not meant for her but instead the knife.

After the incident, Sagane was sent home. Her mother and presumably the kindergarten teacher were on the phone discussing Sagane's obsession with knives, revealing that the young Sagane would cry for 2 to 5 hours if her knife was taken away from her. Her mother continues saying that Sagane scares her and that she "isn't like the other kids".

Later on, in middle school, Sagane had gained a reputation among students, gaining a nickname of "Knife Girl". Students talked about how a girl by the name of Shiratori from Class 5 asked Sagane what she wanted and Sagane replied, saying she wanted a butcher knife. Another topic students talked about was how she got cuts on her arm for sleeping with her knives, even naming all of them.

With her bad reputation, students avoided her and the neighbourhood also knew about her.

From all the strange looks and thoughts people had of her, Sagane decided to just become the world's best knife-master.
