Mai Otonashi
main character



"Turkey" is a bowling term for scoring three consecutive strikes. Mai, a second-year student and captain of the Ikkokukan High School Bowling Club, is a genius who can't seem to win a match. Whenever she scores a Turkey, she mysteriously follows it up with an unyielding split—the Snake Eyes. One day, Rina, the club’s only first-year member, confronts her "You’re doing it on purpose, aren’t you?" "You’re running away from winning. But I want to win. If you have no intention of winning, I’ll quit." (Source: Official Site)
