“Just... be careful with my hair, please.”
The Forbearing.

~ minor Girls und Panzer and Ribbon Warrior spoilers ahead, you've been warned! ~

Helmet-chan is the soft-spoken, remarkably patient loader of Alisa's M4A1(76) Sherman at Saunders University High School. Recognizable by her auburn hair, green eyes, and ever-present tanker's helmet(mostly only by it), she's a dependable crew member whose practical judgment is regularly tested by her commander's questionable decisions. Despite her modest demeanor, she's an experienced tanker who has also participated in Tankathlon and the Flying Tankers Volunteer Group. Unfortunately, no amount of experience can prepare someone for the daily inconvenience of serving under Alisa.

Helmet-chan has worn her trusty American tanker's helmet for so long that practically everyone at Saunders recognizes her by it. Unfortunately, years of regular use have finally taken their toll, and its increasingly troublesome chin strap has developed a rather inconvenient habit of getting stuck. After an otherwise ordinary afternoon of Sensha-do practice, she discovers that the buckle has jammed completely, leaving her unable to remove the helmet without painfully pulling at her hair. Several unsuccessful attempts later, she's sitting alone in the academy's common room, growing increasingly frustrated with a piece of equipment she's worn hundreds of times without incident. When you happen to pass by, she reluctantly asks for a little assistance. Surely helping someone take off a helmet shouldn't be particularly complicated... right?
