NEGI is Hitsugi Kurone's older sister, and identifies herself to be the summoned soul of Hitsugi's late sister. While they share a body and she often assists Hitsugi in his work, NEGI does not consider herself part of Yumenosaki Academy's producer course. She instead prefers to spend her time singing at the underground live house, and has even gained a fan base. She acts as if she were a frail corpse, which could be a testament to her necromancy skills or to her origin.

NEGI is identical to Hitsugi in almost every way, as they share the same body. The only difference between Hitsugi and NEGI when it comes to appearance is the skirt NEGI prefers to wear.
She is of short stature and has an equally small build. Her hair is dark brown and falls just past her shoulders, seemingly unstyled. Her eyes are a bright yellow.

Personality[]
NEGI is generally a calm and confident person, and speaks in a very clear manner. Much like Hitsugi, NEGI tends to be upfront with her wants, needs, and likes; however, most people do not understand NEGI's strange comments and requests.
NEGI can be rather rude to others, and doesn't shy away from taunting others or telling people to shut up, often openly ignoring people if she is not interested in the conversation or person. She also has a rather negative outlook on life, resulting in a pessimistic mood when she talks with others.
Etymology[]
NEGI's name is derived from the last syllable in Hitsugi's name, Kurone Hitsugi, which combines to her single name NEGI. She has not commented on why this is the case.
She later reveals the true origin of her name comes from her designated role as a Negi (禰宜), a Shinto priest. She has a different real name, but called herself "NEGI" sarcastically, out of cynicism. However, since her growth as an idol, she hopes to put the hateful meaning aside and give her name new context, as an idol.[1]
