No she's not. She's a toothpick, and in the original voice track, she's also asthmatic.

Every time something upsets her, she clutches her chest. When Kubodera kills himself, she goes outside and hyperventilates while holding her chest. She does the same thing when Junta's in trouble, and again when she and the others are watching Daisuke get taken to the hospital. When she attacks Mei, she starts hyperventilating again, and it only takes her a few seconds to be strangled; in real life something like that takes a few minutes just for you to lose consciousness. The hyperventilation isn't present in the English dub, but in this case I'm more inclined to go with the original Japanese voice track.

This happened a few years ago, but it's more or less a similar situation, and this girl survived almost two minutes:
