Who is Kanade Tachibana?

Kanade Tachibana is the Afterlife School's student council president. She is often referred to as "Tenshi" by the SSS, based on both Yuri's belief that she must be a representative of god and the SSS members not knowing her name initially. Though, they continue to call her "Tenshi" after discovering her real name. Her position often puts her at odds with Yuri and the other SSS members as her responsibilities require her to suppress delinquency and disruptive activities.

Her given name, Kanade, as described by Otonashi, literally means "Playing music".

Tenshi has a variety of self-defense skills at her disposal, which she calls "Guard Skills".
