Yuki Sumi

"I'm not gonna let you do that though. I'm gonna fight to get all the attention for myself. I hope you won't hold that against me."

Yuki Sumi (ゆき) is a supporting character in Oshi no Ko manga series. She is a fashion model and a participant in the reality dating show The Beginning of My Love With An Idol or LoveNow. Initially imagining she'd fade into the background, she used her character to create drama and interest. From her participation, she established connections with her fellow participants, most notably, Nobuyuki Kumano (her now-boyfriend), Akane Kurokawa, and Aqua Hoshino.

Appearance
Yuki Sumi sports long black hair, a high school uniform, and was seen wearing a casual outfit at the ending of LoveNow.

Personality
While Yuki describes herself as a timid person with average conversational skills, Aqua quickly notices that this is all an act. In actuality, she wants to be in the limelight and is quite competitive, as seen in her conversations with Akane Kurokawa, wanting to gain all the attention for herself.

However, she is not a malicious person, being reasonable and well-meaning in private. When injured by an agitated Akane, she understood her struggles and quickly forgave her. Often she engages in regular girl talk, discussing similar interests with someone or more people.
