Kanade Hisaishi/Relationships

Kumiko Oumae
Kumiko is a senpai of Kanade. The two quickly form a close relationship through their time in sectionals. Kumiko sees a lot of herself in Kanade, and is able to understand her emotions and struggles. At the same time, Kanade is aware of Kumiko's and Shuuichi Tsukamoto's relationship, and fills her in on information regarding Michiru Hakase potentially taking a liking to him. When Kanade purposely plays poorly in the audition, Kumiko chases after her after Natsuki Nakagawa confronts her. Kumiko convinces Kanade to reveal why she acted the way she did and helps calm her down.

Motomu Tsukinaga
Kanade is revealed as a mischievous troublemaker under her polite facade. She regularly teases him by calling him "Tsukinaga", a name which he despises. This causes a great deal of tension, not only between them but the rest of the bass section members too.

Mirei Suzuki
Kanade befriends Mirei after Kumiko expresses concern for her behaviour. Kanade's attempts at acclimating Mirei to the bass section are fruitless, and thus at the Sunrise Festival Mirei breaks down, quits the band, and runs off. Kanade and Kumiko chase after her. Kanade whispers hurtful truths to Mirei, which helps snap her back to a reasonable mindset, eventually agreeing to rejoin the band.

Ririka Kenzaki
Ririka and Kanade are close friends who frequently visit each other outside of school. The two often prepare sweets together. Both have mutual respect for each other's skills, and are very comfortable talking together.
