Naomi

Naomi (ナオミ, Naomi) was a student at Fujimi Academy. She was the girlfriend of Takuzo and was in his group of survivors as they escaped from the school.

About
Naomi was part of Takuzo's group that was saved by Takashi's team. Though they all try to escape, she sees Takuzo being killed and runs back to him, choosing to die with the person she loves.

Appearance
Naomi had raven colored hair (dark blue in the anime) and had only been seen wearing the female Fujimi Academy uniform. She had freckles on both of her cheeks, shaped like downwards triangles.

History
Little is known of Naomi's history. She and Takuzo were possibly acquaintances of Yamada and were astounded by his artwork. Also, Naomi and her boyfriend apparently raised a stray cat for a time.

Personality
Naomi was very devoted to her boyfriend, Takuzo, instantly running back to die with him when he was bitten by Them.

Plot
Naomi is first seen with her boyfriend Takuzo, Kawamoto, and two other students fighting against Them, when they are rescued by other survivors. After confirming that none of them have been bitten, Naomi and the others accept Takashi's invitation to join them and escape the school.

Seeing that the front door was surrounded by a good number of Them, Takashi goes down to test Saya Takagi's theory that They only respond to sound. He tosses a shoe and lures Them away while gesturing for Naomi and the others to go. Just then, one of the boys in Takuzo's group accidently bangs his pole on the railing, attracting the attention of Them. Takashi shouts for them to run and they all make a dash for the bus.

While running with Saya, Naomi hears her boyfriend screaming and then sees him being eaten. Despite his last words for her to run, as well as Saya trying to stop her, Naomi completely loses her will to live and runs back to Takuzo, ending her life in the process.
