Personality

A girl who is a smiling, hard-working student at day, and a stoic magical girl hunter at night. She has a cold and callous nature and shows little remorse for killing others, believing she's doing the right thing, though she occasionally shows some uncertainty of her goals in private. Suzune is usually rather polite and respectful, even when about to kill somebody; she always asks for the girl's names before she kills them, and writes the names down on a little slip of paper she puts in the pouch of her hair pendant.

Story

Not much is known of her past home-life. Suzune's family was killed by a witch, which was defeated by magical girl Tsubaki Mikoto, who adopted Suzune. Tsubaki treated Suzune like her own daughter, and mentored her when she became a magical girl as well. However, Tsubaki one day turned into a witch for reasons unknown, leaving Suzune distraught. Suzune then inherited Tsubaki's bell-and-pouch pendant and, after learning the truths of the magical girl system from Kyubey, began hunting down magical girls to prevent the births of more witches.

About a month before the events of Suzune Magica, Suzune left her hometown and moved to Yunagi City, transferring to the junior high school and becoming a newspaper deliverer at Yunagi Newspaper.

In actuality, the memories Suzune had of swearing to kill all magical girls were fakes created by Kagari Hinata; Suzune, after Tsubaki's death, had instead taken her pendant and ran away in despair, where Matsuri Hinata found her sitting alone, and befriended her.

Powers, Weapons and Abilities

Suzune uses a large sword as her weapon. One of her powers is to "absorb" others' magic powers after killing them or their witches. Some of the powers Suzune shows using are illusionary powers, teleportation powers, fire-elemental powers (absorbed from Tsubaki), healing powers (implied to have been absorbed from a hospital-themed witch during a flashback), and Kagari's memory-altering powers. It's implied that Suzune's wish was to "become like Tsubaki", leading to her gaining absorption powers.

Trivia

• "鈴" means bell, and "音" sound, referencing the bell pouch that Suzune wears as a hair band. "天乃" means heavenly. Her name in full means "heavenly bell sound".
• Her magical girl outfit heavily resembles the outfit that Black Rock Shooter wears. It is unknown if BRS's outfit was inspiration for Suzune's or not.
• Suzune appears to have a mole or birthmark under her left eye near the side of her head.
