'''Keke Tang''' is a main character in ''[[Love Live! Superstar!!]]''. She was a third-year student at [[Yuigaoka Girls' High School]] until she graduated in the anime's [[Forever and Ever!|series finale]]. She is the founder and a first-generation member of [[Liella!]] and a member of the sub-unit [[KALEIDOSCORE]]. Her image color is pastel blue.<ref>https://official-goods-store.jp/lovelive/v2/product/detail/LLV431</ref> | |||
==Background== | |||
Keke has a love for school idols after being inspired by [[Sunny Passion]], which led her to make the move to Yuigaoka from Shanghai. Keke vows to work hard to become a school idol while living in Japan by herself, a country that also happens to be her mother's homeland. Her keen sense of style and fashion makes her an invaluable asset to girls like [[Kanon Shibuya|Kanon]], whose wardrobe may occasionally be in need of someone with a more discerning eye. Seemingly the least fit member of the five, Keke would prefer to do almost anything in school besides gym class. | |||
==Personality== | |||
A fun-loving and energetic optimist, Keke holds that the most important things in life are passion and a smiling face. To her, anything is possible if one never gives up, such as being a school idol. When dealing with tense or stressful situations, Keke often recalls the pithy advice her mother once gave: if her emotions were to ever run hot, it is best to "cool down" with sweets. Her mother's words being the likely inspiration for her sweet tooth, Keke believes that a scoop of ice cream can do more to wash away grouchy feelings than anything else, and could even bring about reconciliation among bickering friends. | |||
Her favorite saying is, "There is no time like the present." | |||
==Clubs and Hobbies== | |||
Keke founded Yuigaoka's school idol club with Kanon. | |||
==Appearance== | |||
Keke has a slim figure with short gray hair with purple tints and curly tips and light blue eyes. | |||
