Public Morals Club

 * Mafuyu Kurosaki (黒崎 真冬)
 * Kurosaki was a renowned bancho (juvenile delinquent leader) from Saitama Prefecture's East High. After she is caught by the police, her mother transfers her to Midorigaoka Academy where she would get to live on her own as a normal high school student on the condition that she would be disowned if she begins fighting again. She aspires to be a fashionable girl, however, she discovers that Midorigaoka is full of delinquents. In order to avoid getting caught fighting while on duty (for Public Morals Club), she dons a rabbit mask, calling herself "Super Bun" (ウサちゃんマン), or cross-dresses as a male delinquent "Natsuo" (夏男). She keeps these identities hidden from everyone except for Takaomi, although Hayasaka and Okegawa cannot help but notice an intense battle aura around her as well as her battle instincts. Kurosaki is not good at interacting with female classmates. Under the handle "Snow White", Kurosaki corresponds regularly with a pen pal named "Strawberry Love" using a carrier pigeon which she saved from drowning.

It is hinted that she harbors a crush on Yui. As the appointed clubs supervisor, she stamps the Public Morals Club's papers out of obligation towards Super Bun for drawing attacks away from her during the final day of club inspections and also because she saw the fully completed sheet regarding the club's activities, members, and achievements which eliminated any grounds for her to reject the club. She becomes the new Student Council president after Hanabusa retired.


 * Reito Ayabe (綾部 麗人)

Because of this anger towards uncleanliness, he is able to become physically stronger while cleaning. That is also why he carries a broom, which he named Fujishima-san, in a guitar case around. Kurosaki is the only person other than Hanabusa who knows about his "cleaning attacks".

Ayabe is Midorigaoka boys dorm manager. He speaks in Kansai dialect and Kurosaki called him Ayaben (あやべん) because of it.
