Aya Hirano

.
*Some of her talents include playing the piano and precognition. She was said to have had accurate dreams, and that her mother seemed to have been able to do the same before. Her piano skills were developed under the Suzuki method, and she played the organ during high school. She is also skilled at calligraphy.
*Her parents did not allow her to handle a kitchen knife for cooking from elementary school through high school.
*The cat-men motif sometimes seen throughout "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" was originally drawn by Aya on the backside of scripts. Staff members discovered the sketches and incorporated them into the anime. Various variations of the cat-men illustrations could be seen throughout Haruhi Suzumiya merchandise (namely CDs and DVDs).
