Nakano Ichika (The Quintessential Quintuplets) Papercraft Toys by June

1 Mar, 2022

This rubric will discuss waifu who is the eldest sister of Nakano's quintuplets, Nakano Ichika.

So are you a manga reader or just a motion picture connoisseur? Maybe those of you who have only watched the anime feel a bit lacking in information regarding the heroine's personality in this series. But that does not rule out the possibility that you have chosen the best waifu from this series made by Negi Haruba.

Mari gets to know Ichika more superficially first. Ichika is the eldest of the five Nakano siblings. Ichika used to have the same hair as her four sisters until in high school she cut it short. She has bright pink hair. While at school, Ichika often wears a uniform with the top two buttons removed, thus showing her asset cleavage. Another distinctive feature of Ichika is the earring on the right.

Various sides of Nakano Ichika

Honestly, I am confused about how to describe Ichika in detail, but here are some of Ichika's strengths and weaknesses to be used as your waifu.

+ She Loves It (as) Big (Onee-san)

Ichika was born the first of her sisters. This earned her the role of the “Big Sister” in her small family. Ichika is believed to be the supreme leader of her twin, and she is very calm in controlling the situation in the conversation between sisters who are getting older. Even though he is not close to Nino, he never sees it as a bad thing and still tries to love him like her other sisters. Although in the end the two of them increasingly rub together in pursuit of Fuutarou.

Ichika also opens up with Fuutarou who suddenly puts herself as her older sister. Fuutarou is also often the subject of teasing because Ichika can easily guess people's personalities in just a few conversations.

+ Teaser

Compared to the four sisters, Ichika tends to tease other people who are considered attractive to him. Either to dig up information, or just want to joke. Especially with a very sexy dress style.

Not only against men, but Ichika also often seduces women, especially her sister. Miku becomes an easy target for him when it comes to matters of love. No doubt Ichika is often a wing woman for Miku, until one day she realizes that she also wants the same target.

+ Independent

From the start, Ichika turned out to have a permanent job which she kept hidden from her four sisters. After being chased by a man during a celebration, Fuutarou finally finds out about Ichika's work as an actress. With this Ichika became the first of the Nakano brothers to have their job, before Nino worked part-time at a confectionery shop.

Ichika's career in the entertainment world seems to be getting longer after she graduates from high school. However, it all depends on how strong he can survive in that world. As a woman who comes from an affluent family and is blessed with good acting talent, I believe that her career can climb high from the minor roles she previously got.

– Selfish

Behind her role as the eldest brother, Ichika also has a side that is a bit difficult to hold. Yotsuba is the manga's 8th Volume also branded her sister as a woman who always wants something that other people have. Starting from the stickers and candy belonging to her sister, to someone the Yotsuba wants to know. I'm not surprised that Ichika would annex Fuutarou when one of her younger siblings is just one step away from getting him.

– Poisonous and Cunning

Doubts about choosing Ichika as the waifu of choice in this series have started to appear because of her smile which is sadly filled with falsehood. Fuutarou who noticed her fake smile finally encouraged him to wipe it away.

Ichika is getting more and more intense to get Fuutarou after having talks with the Yotsuba. He thought the Yotsuba had no special feelings for Fuutarou. This prompts her to do everything in her power to thwart her other sisters' chances, even having to trick Fuutarou into becoming Miku. Then how intense is her effort to get Fuutarou? Please read the manga to find out more.

– Pessimistic Sleepyhead

From the beginning of the story, Ichika herself is a formidable obstacle for Fuutarou to improve her grades. It takes time to change it, let alone a special trigger is needed to lure it out of the hole of laziness. So don't be surprised if the room is very messy, because the girl is also lazy. He also often sleeps naked, so it is quite dangerous if we stay out to go.

Another thing that makes me pessimistic about this series is the voice actor, Kana Hanazawa. According to the information I have gathered, whoever the heroine is voiced by Ms. Kana, will most likely not be the heroine of choice from the protagonist. I don't want to label Ms. Kana as the culprit of Ichika's failure here, but I also hope that there is an opportunity to reverse this negative record.

Alright, that's Waifu Wednesday this edition. I have tried to think hard about allying to support Ichika, but this effort is difficult to realize. It's possible that with the manga still running, Ichika will eventually get a windfall.
