Otome is very athletic, especially known for her track and field abilities. Her short height becomes a running joke in the series but Suzune is the one that teases her about it most of the time. In fact, she hasn't grown an inch since she was in junior high school, which when she makes this comment, would have been about nine months. She even comes to Becky late in the series asking for help in this field, but Becky can't help her. Also, she is often disrespectful to her superiors, especially Saotome, refusing to refer to him as "sensei" (先生, "sensei" meaning "teacher"). (source:Wikipedia)
