Tsugumi Hazawa is one of the main characters from the BanG Dream! anime and games.

The Pianist/Keyboardist of Afterglow. An earnest, hardworking girl, it was originally her idea for her and her friends to form a band. She doesn't view herself as unique or talented like her bandmates so she strives to make up for it with hard work, and despite her dim view of her own talent her optimism helps to keep the band afloat in tough times. Her family owns a cafe.

In the AWA fics, Tsugumi appears in the AWA Stories.

Appearance
Tsugumi has soft brown eyes and chin-length chestnut brown hair in a bob. She has a small side-swept fringe. Her casual attire is feminine with natural colors.

Her original band attire is composed of a gold tank-top worn with a black leather vest, along with a black skirt beneath a sheer layer and a pair of gold and black boots. She wears the choker the rest of her bandmates wear.

In her current outfit, she switches to soft gold ruffled dress with a black lace petticoat, worn beneath a black hoodie with Afterglow written on it, along with splatter markings. This is paired with her choker and a necklace, a black thigh strap, and black boots with yellow socks. She also wears earrings and an olive headband.

Personality
Tsugumi views herself as the most normal girl in the band. However, she is a very hardworking and optimistic person who rarely gets discouraged, and her optimism buoys the other members' spirits. She is the one who also pushes the band to do and try different challenges, such as entering the Girls Jam concert event, and Tsugumi was even the one to suggest that the girls start a band. She can easily get flustered however, and tends to panic or have trouble with dealing with people whom she hasn't met before.
