There has to be at least one person on Earth, who would love a tactless guy like you.

― Nino Nakano to Fuutarou Uesugi

Nino Nakano (なか , Nakano Nino?) is the second sister of the Nakano quintuplets. She usually acts as the mother of the family, cooks for them[5] and takes care of their medical needs.[6] Among the five sisters, she is the one who has the highest hostility towards Fuutarou and often rebels against him early in the series.

Appearance

Nino Nakano design draft

Nino Nakano's profile.

Nino is a cute and cold-looking girl with a long straight hair. She has reddish pink hair, ranging from light pink to telemagenta[7] in Volume 1, and antique pink to red-violet[8] in Volume 4. She later cuts her hair to shoulder length.

Her notable accessories are twin butterfly-shaped ribbons[9] on both sides of her head. Like her sisters, she has dark blue eyes, an average height, and a well-endowed figure. Nino wears a long-sleeved sweater that covers her uniform. Nino uses contact lens as she has poor eyesight.[10] Nino and Ichika wear a handbag.[11][12]

Nino feels that the sisters had left her behind, this is why she still keeps the long hair from her childhood.[13][14]

She is noted to be the more fashionable girl among the sisters, has various cute accessories,[15] and takes care of her nails.[16] Nino has a rabbit-themed phone cover.[17] Nino is shown to be able to cook, and she makes cookies with cute designs. She also has cute kitchen gloves.[18] Nino has a cute & girly room.[19] and owns a cute pen.[20] Her room is tidy and she has several dolls on her bed.[21] She doesn't pierce her ears but she's planning to have them pierced at least before marriage.[22]

Personality

Yotsuba calls Nino as a "social butterfly" because she has a lot of friends.[23] Ichika remarks that Nino is the most delicate among the sisters.[24] . Nino has a sharp tongue[25] and talks bluntly when confronting others, even if the other party is her sister[26]. She has an outgoing personality and is socially aware, resulting in her having many friends. Her rebellious attitude makes her the least cooperative girl among the sisters. Nino is scared about getting her ears pierced[27].

Nino's aggressive traits are first shown and her protectiveness is first hinted when she directly confronts Fuutarou without hesitation.[28] Ichika considers Nino as someone who plays the hardball.[29]

Despite the cold and rude front, Nino is actually a caring[30] and protective sister[31]. It is also evident by her willingness to act as the cook of the family, ignoring her care towards her own appearance (culinary activities may lead to foul odor, damaged nails, etc.). She is also shown to bring band-aids wherever and whenever she goes, possibly as a precaution to Yotsuba's active behavior[32]. Despite her motherly behavior, Nino can be forgetful at times[33] and is afraid of needles[34].

Nino is touched by his story and sheds a tear. Nino considers the story to be tearjerking.[35][36]

Nino is more interested in a romance movie while Itsuki prefer Science documentary.[37] Nino is trying to kiss Ichika and seems fine about it.[38]

Nino prefers black tea because it can be customized according to her mood.[39] Nino uses a lot of sugar for her tea.[40]

According to Fuutarou, each Nakano Quintuplet has their own characteristics regarding their sheets.[41] In Nino's case, she will file her papers neatly.

According to Ichika, Fuutarou has to be firm to deal with Nino and be kind to deal with Itsuki.[42]

Nino's dream is revealed: she wants to open her own restaurant, and it has been her dream since she's a kid.[43]

It's a funny ironic that being the only Nakano twins who is the most retaliate with Fuutaro at first, Nino becomes far bolder on approaching Fuutaro than any other three.

Abilities

Academically, among the sisters, Nino ranks in the lower part of the five, with her strongest subject being English.

Nino is shown to be a good cook, ranging from daily meals, cookies, to congee.[44] She is capable of making a lot of friends, as noted by Yotsuba, who labeled her as a "social butterfly". According to Nino, the sisters has their own preferences, which makes it harder for her to cook for them.[45]

She has poor eyesight, needing the use of contact lenses to do daily activities.[46] Despite having many friends, she is incapable of recognizing Fuutarou in a simple wig, implying her oblivious side.[47] However, this is possibly due to darker surroundings and her infatuation towards a blonde Fuutarou.
