==Appearance==
Sorawo is a 20-year-old university student with short black hair and dark eyes. Her right eye becomes blue later in the series after she comes into touch with a Kunekune. Sorawo wears a brown-colored contact lens in public to cover her odd blue eye.
Her main attire consists of a red sweatshirt with two white strings dangling from each side, a white t-shirt beneath (in certain photos, such as the manga, it has black/dark blue stripes), back/grey slim jeans, and sneakers, over trendy gear.
==Personality==
Sorawo is a quiet and introverted person who wants to be alone, preferring not to be disturbed, and keeps a safe distance from others. She tried to make friends during her early university years by attending a few parties, but she couldn't keep up and it was too stressful for her, so she chose to remain alone instead. She gets flustered or talks excessively when forced into a conversation or meeting someone for the first time.
Sorawo acknowledges being alone and forgotten by others around her in her initial appearance, and she appears cynical and untrusting of new humans. Her cynicism and nihilism is deeply stemmed from both her deceased grandmother and father, who joined a cult, and chased her out across every possible abandoned building to make her join by force, leading her to distrust humans.
==Background==
Sorawo is a second-year student enrolled at a university in Saitama's general education programme. She used to work part-time at a convenience shop to help pay for her bills until she started exploring the Otherside and bringing goods to Kozakura in exchange for money.
Her fascination with actual ghost stories and her pastime of visiting abandoned ruins arose out of desperation during a difficult period in her life when her mother died and both her father and grandmother joined a cult. The cultists would congregate at their house, and they would try to persuade her to join. When another religious cult attempted to kidnap her, she sought to avoid going to their location and associating with the cults as much as possible.
She had a dream about a red lady asking whether she required those people while staying in a run-down motel, to which she answered that she didn't. She awoke with kerosene in her hand and returned home, maybe to light the entire house on fire with the cultists (and maybe along with her). She waited for a long time, but no one appeared. Later, the cops arrived, saying that the cult was killed by gas that settled in a mountain depression. Despite the fact that she was left alone after that, she managed to attend university with a student loan from her family, despite the fact that she had no inheritance.
Sorawo was never uncomfortable talking about her history, and she would shrug it off as usual and not a huge problem, which always surprised the others.
==Abilities==
* Right Eye: Sorawo's right eye gives her the ability to see "glitches" in the Otherside. She also uses it to see the Entities' true forms and exploit its weakness, as well as spotting gates through the Otherside. She can also induce insanity by making the target look through her right eye, but only does it when she has no options left.
* Expert Gunner: During Sorawo's trek to the Otherside, Sorawo is proficient in the usage of firearms, when dealing with the Entities and minions in the said world, whom she learnt it from Toriko.
==Trivia==
* According to the Junior Edition of the Otherside Picnic novel, having cats is what Sorawo dreamt of.
