She's a supportive and caring girl, who wants only the best for her friends, and would do just about anything to protect them. She isn't afraid to state her opinion. Taiyo can also get pretty anxious about stuff, but she tries to hide it in when around others, since she does not want them to see her worried or get worried.

Etymology
Amamiya (雨宮): Ama is similar to Ame (雨) which means "rain", and Miya (宮) means "shrine". Taiyo (太陽): Taiyo means "sun".

Relationships
Hanashi Sara Taiyo's childhood friend. They are very close friends. And plus, Sara knows more about the academy than Taiyo does (considering the former has been to academy about a year before Taiyo joined). They may fight a lot, but it's only on rare occasions.

Takamori Miyu One of Taiyo's good friends.

Tokikawa Mirai One of Taiyo's good friends. In episode 1, Mirai was very shy at the academy, and didn't have the confidence or skill to perform as an idol. Even with Taiyo encouraging them, Mirai found the resolve to perform on their own. Even after they should've failed, Taiyo seemed to be able to convince the headmistress to let Mirai pass. Taiyo wants to help Mirai in any way possible just like she would do with the rest of her friends. She seems a bit obsessive over them, but it's unknown how she really feels about Mirai.

Nozomi Aoki and Shiori Fujiwara Two of Taiyo's newest friends. While Taiyo is friends with the two, Taiyo is kind of suspicious of them due to tyem both using appeals she hasn't seen before, as seen in EDA001.
