Chiaki Takahashi (高橋 千秋, Takahashi Chiaki), often called Captain (キャプテン) is the captain of Kaimei High School's softball team.
Backstory
Chiaki Takahashi lost her mother at a young age. Thus, she grew up with much more responsibility than others, even to the point of wanting to take care of her younger brother while she's busy with school.
Sometime after coming to Kaimei High School, she joined the softball team and became its captain. Generally, it was Chiaki Takahashi that made Himeko accept friends again. She had done this by persuading Himeko, everyday, into being her friend. Gradually, with Bossun, Chiaki made friends with Himeko and made her smile again.

Special Abilities
Capt. Eating in action
- Capt. Eating (キャプ食い, Kyapu kui): Chiaki seems to have a bottomless stomach that allows her to eat large quantities of food. Her skill's name comes from her ability to eat food so quickly that the process can't be seen by the naked eye and instead gives the appearance of vacuum suction. She is unable to eat eggs, however, and still vomits when eating Pelollipop Candy.
- Neo Capt. Eating (ネオ キャプ食い, Neo kyapu kui): An upgraded version of "Capt. Eating." Switch claims that Chiaki inhales her food faster than the speed of sound, thus creating a small-scale sonic boom. Unlike the first version of this technique, where she would suck in food after putting it to her mouth, the food disappears directly from her plate.
