Summary

A magical girl who is good at tactics and is one of the three sisters who leads Promised Blood. She provokes others with her arrogant attitude, but inside she’s a cautious person who calmly analyzes her surroundings. For this reason, she can often get fed-up with her sisters’ impulsive behavior. She likes to play games and read books by herself.

Doppel Description

The doppel of undesirable results. Its form is a gathering cloud. The master of this emotion is a compassionate being who feigns being cold-hearted. As she cannot get rid of her self-reproach when she cannot avoid hurting others, she tries to escape the situation by hurting others once more, which repeats the chains of negativity. This Doppel captures such a master, who is beheaded to be released from her distress, as she feels freedom from the sense of taking responsibility only for that single moment. But the intelligent master knows, as everything is just a deception of self-satisfaction as she anguishes, the self-reproach that can never be released solidifies into a single giant entity, and it vents its anger as it tries to release these emotions that has no place to go. As this sin never reaches its conclusion nor does it die out, it will continue to grow.

Costume Stories

Swimsuit (2020)

Ao is playing video games with Ranka Chizu. Ao has been practicing lately and is actually able to beat Ranka this time. Ranka is impressed with Ao’s skills and asks if she wants to play a fighting game next. She shows her the game and says they updated it recently with a swimsuit editing mode. They can design their own swimsuits and make their characters wear them in game. Swimsuits aren’t really Ao’s thing but she’s willing to check it out. They boot up the game and head to the swimsuit edit menu. The two of them play around with the editor, adding ribbons, crazy patterns and other design elements to the swimsuit on screen. As the girls are wrapping up the design, Ranka says that Ao ended up designing the kind of swimsuit she would wear in real life. She asks Ao if she wants to go to the beach with her next but Ao shakes her head and insists that an indoor girl like her would never want to go outside to the beach. Ranka admits it’s a little hard to imagine but before she can elaborate further Ao deletes the swimsuit they designed and turns off the game and asks if they can’t play a different game. Ranka asks if she’s sure she’d rather play something else but Ao insists.

A few days later, Ao is playing video games with Hikaru Kirari online. Thanks to video-chatting,t hey were able to coordinate their attacks and beat the game easily. Hikaru wraps up the call just as Ao’s package arrives at the door. Ao goes and opens the package: she ordered a swimsuit that looks remarkably like the one she created in the game editor. She tries it on and checks herself out in the mirror, commenting on how much better it looks than she expected. Hikaru asks her why she’s wearing a swimsuit much to Ao’s shock. Ao asks Hikaru why she’s still on call but Hikaru doesn’t know either. All she knows is she suddenly heard Ao’s voice, turned around and saw Ao on screen wearing the swimsuit. Hikaru asks her why she’s wearing it but all Ao can say is what’s wrong with wearing one indoors. Hikaru is just surprised that such an indoor type of girl would be interested in beachwear. Ao claims she’s usually not interested in this kind of thing, then asks if it would be weird if she wanted to go to the beach. Hikaru says it’s summer so there’s nothing wrong with that so Ao suggests they all go together the next time the weather is nice.

Beach Friendship	Max Limit Break: Accele MP UP [III] & Blast Damage UP [III] & Charged Damage UP [II]	Passive	“Minami-san, I want you to team up with Hikaru for the next game.” “Eh? That’s fine, but… what kind of wind are you blowing?” “We were able to cooperate so well, so playing just one match seems like kind of a waste.” “…Heh heh, Rena thought so too. So do you want to play another round?”	「水波さん、次の試合もひかると組んで欲しいっす！」 「え？そりゃいいけど…どういう風の吹きまわしよ？」 「上手く連携できたのに、1試合だけじゃもったいないっすもん」 「…ふふっ、それはレナも思ってた。んじゃ、もう1試合やる？」

I wish I could play again..."	「あ、見てみて！これ、みんなで遊んだ時の映像だ～」 「あのメンツで遊ぶなんて、最初は考えもしなかったわね …ていうかレナ、ちょっとはしゃぎすぎじゃない…!?」 「ふふ、楽しかったよね！また、遊べたらいいなぁ…」
Crimson Resolve	Max Limit Break: Blast Damage Up [II] & Charged Attack Damage Up [IV]	Passive	Blood drips, one drop, one drop, the crimson of life. The deep red hardens, spreading outward, a chain of deaths. A vow to some, to ourselves, to grieve over someone, to my brethren. A taste that fills, a rising scent, I will never forget it, the taste of Promise.	滴る血、１滴、１滴、命の赤 固まる臙脂、広がり連なる、死の鎖 誓いは誰に、我々に、悼みは誰に、同胞に 満ちる味、立つ香り、忘却許さぬ、約束の味

It was the plot that was layered above the plot. The sight you're tired of seeing, the final layer, the people change but the same scene is engraved. I wish, I just hope, I just want an end to the end.	争いの果てに残ったのは争いだった 謀の上に重ねられたのは謀だった 見飽きた光景、上塗りの結末、人が変わって同じ光景が刻まれる 願うばかり、ただ願うばかり、終われ終われと願うばかり
