Nino Nakano is the second of the quintuplets featured in Negi Haruba's manga and anime series 5-toubun no Hanayome. She is one of Fuutarou Uesugi's love interests.
In the International Saimoe League, Nino missed the 2019 winter seasonal in favor of other sisters Yotsuba and Itsuki. She made her debut in the 2020 main tournament where she only won one match and was eliminated in the first wildcard round. The quintuplet then made her first seasonal contest in 2021 after she starred in the anime's second season.
On the other hand, Nino had relatively decent results in r/anime's corresponding seasonals (quarter-final in winter and round 2 in the yearly contest), and was eliminated in the third round on Best Girl 7 in 2020. But after the anime's S2 released in 2021, Nino then pulled off a double upset in that year's Best Girl contest, taking down higher seeded regulars Wiz and Haruhi to reach the last 32 stage where her run was stopped by Megumin.

| (written by Momento10)
Of the five quintuplets, Nanako Nino is the strictest of the group. She has yet to accept their new tutor and will do everything in her power to get rid of him once and for all. There is no room for him in their life, and she plans for it to stay that way. Nino is arguably the most beautiful member of her family. She takes extra care in her appearance, whether it is wearing contacts to trying out the latest trends in fashion. She is also an excellent cook, creating meals fit for restaurants. If it were not for her harsh attitude towards men, she would be the ideal girl for anyone to fall for. Despite her sharp tongue and overly cautious personality, Nino is the most motherly member of the family. She is so accustomed to life with just the five of them that any sort of change scares her. She does not want the dynamic that they already have be tainted by any outside source, so she keeps everyone as close to her as possible. Unless there is someone who can be a part of their lives while making their sisterly bonds even stronger, Nino will protect her family from any intruders. | |||||||||||||||||||
