Taiga "Palmtop Tiger" Aisaka

Taiga is a girl in Ryūji's class. She has a well-regulated and beautiful appearance though is unable to stomach company from others. Due to her often snapping at others in brutal ways and her short stature at 143.6 cm (4' 8.5"), she is given the nickname "Palmtop Tiger." Her under-developed body and the added nickname has given her a complex which in turn serves to give her a negative attitude and facial expression. Essentially, Taiga gets upset easily and is considerably clumsy. Due to her cute looks, she often gets confessions by boys her age, but she turns down every one of them. She comes from a rich family but due to bad family relations, she has taken to living on her own. However, since she came from a privileged household, she does not know how to do any domestic chores.

When she meets Ryūji and learns of his domestic talents, she begins to depend on Ryūji for them. Aside from sleeping in her own house and going to school, she spends most of her time at Ryūji's house; so much so that she is almost considered a member of his family, and many classmates think they are dating.
