Hiroko is a famous j-pop idol and is Tojo's most direct rival. Her family heritage precedes her fame, though. Her great-grandfather was the legendary Michio Suzuki, founder of the Suzuki Motor Corporation. Her grandfather, Osamu Suzuki, is the current CEO. Her father and mother both own shares in the company, and her older twin brothers both plan to start careers within the company in the future.

Hiroko got her start in the idol business when she first put together a song for her family's reunion at the age of 16. Seeing the potential, her father encouraged her to pursue a career in singing. Her capability proved true (aided slightly by abundent funding from her parents), and Hiroko secured a spot as one of the top regional idols.

Hiroko's personality is that of someone who is everybody's friend. She is kind, sociable, and very charismatic. She participates in the idol business for her own enjoyment, and does not hold the same competitive spirit as most other idols. However, it is this very attitude that makes her so popular with her fans.

Said attitude is in direct conflict with Tojo's. Tojo views Hiroko as nothing more than competition, and treats her with disdain and arrogance. Hiroko, being a naturally amiable individual, consistently shrugs off Tojo's venomous behaviour and tries to become close friends. Her persistance may be encouraged by the fact that Hiroko has a small crush on the Golden-haired idol, though she keeps her true intentions hidden...mostly.

Hiroko focuses on a more techno-futuristic style with her stage appearance, wearing outfits that would not seem out of place in a Neo-Tokyo setting. Her hair is kept in two, large, messy ponytails with a set of beaded berets. She also has bangs that fall loosely to either side of her face. Being a pine marten, her arms and legs are notably poofy, especially during the winter.
