Suzune Horikita

Suzune Horikita is a character featured in the light novel series Classroom of the Elite, created by writer-illustrator duo Shougo Kinugasa and Tomoseshunsaku. One of the first heroines introduced in the series, Suzune is a student of the prestigious Advanced Nurturing High School, and a member of Class D who sits beside the main character Kiyotaka Ayanokouji. While she possesses both beauty and intelligence, she is also antisocial and refuses to socialize with her classmates. It is later revealed that the student council president is actually her older brother Manabu, which causes her to be looked down upon by him because her low status brings shame to the family name. Because of this, she is determined to climb to Class A.

Although Suzune is considered the main female protagonist of the light novels, she does not exhibit romantic feelings for Kiyotaka. Nevertheless, she is the series' most recognized female among anime watchers due to her prominent role and screentime in the TV adaptation. This popularity has helped her win the summer diadem in ISML 2017. In the 2018 edition of China's Bilibili Moe contest, she reached the last 16 round (group finals) but lost to Fate/stay night's third main heroine Sakura Matou.
