Kawaii ^^ cute and funny, what's not to like about her? After ep.04, I am rather intrigued as concerns her background, the accident and whatnot. And why the fixation on stars? I wonder...

[Cyz]

Well, Fuko is Fuko. What I like about her is she's always energetic and the fact that she always get lost in her thoughts....it's quite her charm. Oh and she seems to have a fascination with stars.

[Echoes]

Her seiyu does an excellent job of bringing her to life, I think.

Fuko is very charming, has an abundance of cuteness, and after episode 4; an aura of mystery. Cyz mentioned that she gets lost in her thoughts, and I concur.

[Tangowr]

Those aren't stars...> >

[Kristen]

Her name, is it Fuko or Fuuko? I've seen both spellings...

[boggart]

Noooo... I missed the grand opening of Fuko-sama's new thread!!

Anyways, her energy and kawaii-ness has what has drawn me in. The way she acts around Tomoya is hilarious, and with this new revelation in Episode 4... I wonder what new things will occur... I'm guessing some emo-ness will come from her next.

Technically it is Fuuko (風子)... but apparently the official romaji from merchandising and the opening sequence of the anime is Fuko.

Well, the thing is double letter is another way to put stress on it, instead of the ~
"in practice", it should be Fūko (thus the "fuuko" seen somewhere).

But since the romaji "system" isn't exactly universal, you see "simplier" version of such, so Fuko (other example : Sousuke/Sôsuke -> Sosuke, Ooishi/Ôishi -> Oishi, etc etc)
Both are valid, though most use "fuko" because it is like this in the opening

as a little trivia, IF i'm not mistaken, her first name is written with the kanji of "wind" ( かぜ - Kaze/ ふう - Fuu), 風子
with a very literal translation, she can be called "child of the wind" or something of that sort ^^"

[Hunter Sock Monsters]

Fuko seems energetic and full of life. I couldnt help but laugh when she patted down Tomoya. I do agree with Cyz and Echoes in that Fuko gets lost in her own thoughts very easily, but its another one of those quirks that makes her so cute and funny. as for the stars, who knows, and hopefully we will find out the reason for the fascination in upcoming episodes...

[Mirrinus]

What I'm wondering about is why is the classroom that Fuuko's whittling stars in always empty? Is everyone just afraid of her or something? Or do they normally hold class there, and just ignore her?

[Shizzon]

i love Fuko. i think its funny how she goes through the whole basketball thing in eps 2 and 3 before doing a high five for Tomoya. her character is so adorable.

[EXEs]

Fuko is very much like Ayu from Kanon, no? Both are kawaii, energetic, basically moe filled characters. Can I plz has Fuko 4 mah imouto? Kthxbai.

If you're talking about the floating bubble stars, those are product of Fuu-chan's extremely wild imagination

But if you're talking about the star she's carving... I'll let your extremely wild imagination decide it

Geh... that's too much of a hint

That's the old school building, also the building where the theatre club was at, Fuuko use the classroom next door to carve her starfish(...)

^ 1%? even less...? hard to tell...
To be quite honest, it is more looking like a Starman from Mario franchise than anything else

[Cattleya]

I like her a lot. She is so cute and funny. And her hairstyle looks very nice.

[iamandragon]

I'm just thinking, remember when she saw Sunohara she said he is strange because of his hair? What if she meets Tomoyo? No matter how you look at it, silver hair is very impossible...
