Yutaka, a very positive and cheerful but sometimes forgetful girl, is Konata&#039;s cousin and Yui&#039;s younger sister. Also referred to as &quot;Yu-chan&quot; by Konata and Sōjirō. When Konata became a third year student, she was admitted to Ryōō Gakuen High School as a first year student. She is in the same class, 1-D, as Minami and ran for candidacy for class president on the first day of school. She came to live with Konata&#039;s family since her body is weak, making her prone to getting sick, and it was too far for her to commute to school from her home. Yutaka wears her hair with small pig tails and often wears a ribbon in her hair. She is an indoor person, so her height and her physique are smaller than Konata. Her primary concern is her height and her body development. However, she realizes her dreams are futile since her cousin Konata hasn&#039;t developed at all.

What’s the best way to eat dessert? Do twins really have a psychic connection? What kind of guys are into moe girls? These are the kinds of questions that float through the inquisitive mind of anime super-fan Konata Izumi. When she’s not lost in her favorite manga or logging hours in one of her online games, she’s debating the mysteries of the universe with the best friends a girl could ask for.<br>

The OVA features six separate stories revolving around the cast, some of which border on the bizarre; one of which is an MMORPG environment being played by Konata, Kagami, Tsukasa, and Nanako Kuroi, and another in which Kagami has a "suggestive" dream about Konata. <br>


Lucky Star's story portrays the lives of several school girls attending a Japanese high school with a very loose humor tone. The setting is based on the town Kasukabe in Saitama Prefecture. The main heroine is Konata Izumi, an athletic and intelligent girl who, despite these attributes, is not in a sports club, and has low grades. Her laziness at school is due to her love for anime and video games and lack of interest in anything else. The serialization began with the four main characters in their first year of high school: Konata Izumi, Kagami Hiiragi, Tsukasa Hiiragi, and Miyuki Takara. As the story progresses, they move onto their second and third year.
