Nodoka Manabe

Nodoka Manabe (真鍋和) is a character in the series K-ON!, and its sequel, K-ON!!. She is a childhood friend of Yui Hirasawa's, a class mate of Mio Akiyama's and a member of the student council. Nodoka is smart, and has good manners, but she shouts at Ritsu Tainaka whenever she forgets important club activities. She is generally taken aback by the light music club's odd behavior. Mio loves Nodoka's companionship tremendously because she is the only person Mio knows in her class. In her third year, she becomes the student council president and is also in the same class as the other third year club members. She gradually becomes the president of Mio's fan club through unknown circumstances (possibly out of her control), even when she originally turned down the position.
