Masumi Nishino

Masumi Nishino is a year younger than Akane. She is also Akane's best friend. As member of the school's News Club, Masumi is always after the scoops and has a habit of exaggerating her findings. Masumi is in year 1, class 3. Her hobby is listening to music while she sleeps. Her grades are in the lower-middle. Her bloodtype is B.

When she interviewed Natsuru in his Kämpfer form (in the anime), she was most insistent in his secrets and in the next day's school newspaper edition had made the false idea that he is a lesbian. This would prove much problematic when all the girls go mad after him in stampede. Later on she makes more rumors in the paper revealed by Mikoto when talking with Natsuru. In the Cultural Festival in the beauty contest, she is shown to be the announcer/hostess to the contest. In episode 12, she again is shown as announcer.

Personality
Masumi Nishino is typically overzealous in getting her scoops for the newspaper and doing crazy things like being the contact on the Girl Section involving the tunnel under the school.
