Kyoko Machi

 (町 京子, Machi Kyōko) is a main character in Demi-chan wa Kataritai series. She is a shy Dullahan who always has her head detached from her body.

Appearance
Machi is a Dullahan, meaning her head is separate from her body. Due to this, she lacks having any neck, instead having a non-warm green flame in its place; her head also has no neck at its base.

She has fair skin and ginger hair cut short and spiking in all directions, due to her head being difficult to carry with longer hair. She is also quite a bit taller than a good portion of her classmates, despite the fact that her head isn't on her body. She is also fit with muscular arms due to her always carrying her head around.

She can often be seen in her school uniform, though she wears a blue vest in the summer as well as short sleeved shirt instead of her usual long sleeve one.

Personality
Machi is very kind and patient having to constantly work around her head being separate from her body, she is clever enough to figure out ways to do things that require both her hands. She is extremely intelligent, having placed 5th in the midterms and 1st in the proficiency exam. Machi enjoys studying and aiding her friends.

She is easily flustered and very expressive with her body.

Machi genuinely enjoys being held by others and despises being alone, as to move around either her own body or someone else has to pick up her head.

Machi becomes interested in her demi species thanks to Tetsuo Takahashi; because ethics is a barrier for researchers, Machi believes that if she became one, she would be able to unlock the secrets of Dullahan biology.

Tetsuo Takahashi
Machi has a school-girl crush on her teacher Mr. Takahashi. He has a mentor like relationship with her and treats her kindly like his other students which makes her crush even harder.
