Meet Kuma! 8D

Actually her real name is Oka Takashi and a Japanese exchange student at a local university studying music. She got a scholarship for her skills with a cello and also the piano. She's very intelligent but you wouldn't know it by the way she acts outside of school. Oka can be found with her face glued to a screen playing video games of every genre and out partying on the weekends at clubs. She picked up the name "Kuma" for her intense love of Gloomy Bear, though she does love other bears in addition to Gloomy. Most of her club attire is fashioned after or inspired by Gloomy Bear or video games she's played over time.

This particular outfit is her NeoGeoStar design, inspired by Gloomy Bear and also influenced by SNK fighting games specifically King of Fighters. Another tidbit about this outfit is its also her old high school uniform. XD She modified it to high hell and back, silly girl. But yes, this is Kuma. Expect to see more of her in the near future.
