Although she is well know as a gentle and caring person behind the closed doors and in the safety of the Light Music Club Sawako is a completely different character.

Sawako is often seen dressing up the members of Hougako Tea Time in different cosplay outfits, such as French maid outfits, much to the embarrassment of some of the members Hougako Tea Time. Sawako seems to enjoy designing and creating different costumes and outfits, she even design all the costumes for the schools performance of 'Romeo & Juliet'.
Sawako Yamanaka is voiced by Asami Sanada in the original Japanese dub, and Karen Strassman in the English dub.
