Profile

An officer of Highlander Railroad Academy's Central Control Center.

She and her twin sister, Nozomi, were selected for their genius talent in locomotive driving skills, but she's a total flop when it comes to paperwork or administrative work. Her tendency to follow her desires and do things at her own pace, with little regard for others' opinions, causes all sorts of trouble.

Hikari's full name is Tachibana Hikari. Hikari's birthday is June 14th, and Hikari stands 4'10" tall. Hikari is voiced by 石見舞菜香 in Japanese and Bang Yeonji in Korean. Hikari's hobby is practicing bizarre driving skills and observing ants. CHILD drew Hikari.
