History
Hishiro Chizuru graduated from a decent university with excellent results and got placed in a big company. Due to her childhood experiences, she avoided human contact and her communication skills became non-existent. She quit her jobs subsequently and pushed away people. She met Yoake Ryo after one of her failed interviews and was asked to become Relife Subject No. 001 in the Kanto Region. She then underwent the ReLife process.

Hishiro then was made to enter Aoba High School as a second year student along with Ryo.In order to improve her interpersonal skills and regain her feelings damaged in the past, Hishiro was put in a class with a bullied student.The plan was to make her help that student and thus make a friend. Also it was expected from her to form a romantic relationship with Ryo. Hishiro still remained indifferent to everything and she showed no change.

Ryo was then criticized for not lending proper support. So he got more involved and asked Hishiro to help out the bullied student.This resulted in a disaster however and the student was bullied even more because of Hishiro's clumsy way of trying to stop the bullying. After that incident,she totally avoided total human contact and Ryo was once again criticized for interfering too much in her experiment.However she was given a new chance and has changed due to Kaizaki's influence in the next year.

Personality
Kaizaki notes she has a clever,smart atmosphere to her. Hishiro is highly intelligent, always seen getting the first place in any exam. Despite her intelligence, she is highly oblivious of her surroundings and people's feelings, openly voicing out insults, such as when she first talked to Kaizaki. She has a habit of people by names like calling Kaizaki "The Cigarette Guy" and Kariu as "The Red Haired Girl who did 7.38 seconds" because she does not know the name of other students in her class. She also does not know how to smile properly, often giving a forced smile that often makes people around her not take it in a friendly way. She wants to get people more and make friends as she has reached the final year of school. She often searches the Internet about things she does not understand and tries to follow the tips given there.

Summer Vacation Arc
Hishiro is seen attending supplementary lessons during the summer vacation. She's then seen in the group when Ohga decides to confess his feelings to Kariu. She tells she's not experienced in those matters when consulted by Ohga. She also feels irritated after hearing that Kaizaki is super experienced with women.She is later asked by Arata not to tell Kariu about Ohga's plans of confessing.

After Kariu decides to confess to Ohga, she goes Yukata shopping with her,Tamarai and Onoya. She's greatly confused as to which type of Yukata she should select as it is new for her. She then selects a Yukata based on Onoya's advice.

During the festival, she apologizes to everyone after she arrives 3 minutes late.She faces difficulties in getting around and after Yoake offers her to take his arm, she gets around with his help. During the fireworks, Kaizaki sits along with her when she tells Kaizaki that he's able to make friends quickly and feels elated when he tells she has a lot of friends as well.

She then tells that she's glad she met Kaizaki and then feels distressed that he would be separated from her after high school. After the fireworks, she asks Yoake to accompany her home, greatly shocking Kaizaki and Rena. Yoake then says he'll accompany Onoya and asks Kaizaki to take Hishiro home.

She asks Kaizaki to spend some time with her to witness Kariu and Ohga's confessions. She says she's poor in understanding things about love and friendship and wants to get a clear picture after seeing the confession.She then tells Kaizaki that even though she thought that Kariu confessing to Ohga was useless, she feels happy for them. She tells that she is still not clear about her feelings and Kaizaki asks her to make a lot of friends and find romance.

She is seen at a restaurant along with Honoka and Kariu,congratulating the latter after she tells about her successful confession. Hishiro then tells Ohga was planning to confess as well, then stops herself from telling further about it. She then tells Kariu that she was watching her confession to understand about feelings. She then leaves the shop and asks Yoake to meet her and asks him whether Kaizaki is a ReLife Experiment subject.
