Haruka Minami

Haruka Minami (南 春香 Minami Haruka) is the eldest Minami sister, in her second year of high school. She sustains the naming pattern by having Spring ("Haru" or 春) in her name. She is the core of the family unit and has been taking care of her younger sisters for many years, a fact which has had ramifications on her personality and life. For instance, despite her excellent schoolwork and high intelligence, she attended the same middle-of-the-road middle school Kana does, because it is closer to home. Further, she is implied to not participate in any after-school club or activity, though she may have some involvement with the student council, and likely was class representative in ninth grade. She has also rejected every suitor out of hand. Because of the way she has had to take care of her sisters, Haruka is by far the most reliable of the three sisters, to the point where there are almost no examples of her using Minami Logic. She is constantly seen busy cooking, cleaning, shopping or doing other housework. However, this is driven primarily out of love for her sisters.
