Marifa

==About==
Marifa is Popee's younger sister, though it is possible they are not related by bloodhttps://twitter.com/wacosan0/status/1186598713491259392. She only exists outside of the televised worldhttps://twitter.com/Ryuji_Masuda/status/837808159930527745. She is 13 years old, and appears to be a performer like the rest of her family. She is a trickster, and "probably" a girl. While her family lives at the circus, she lives in a city.https://twitter.com/wacosan0/status/1410510220309143557
According to Wakako Masuda, Marifa was originally conceived when they were creating characters for the second season of the show. The reason Marifa never appeared in the show was due to either a limited budget or technical limitations.https://twitter.com/wacosan0/status/1404788052438917131 It came down to her or Papi, and Papi was chosen over her because she isn't skilled enough to perform yet.https://twitter.com/wacosan0/status/1393459276845256705
Marifa's first (and only) appearance outside of social media is on page 8 of the Popee the Performer manga, where they introduce her and another character that doesn't appear in the show. Despite this, the first time her name was revealed was through the creator's twitter. 
==Appearance ==
Marifa has gray/silver hair and green eyes. She wears a blue hat decorated with two pink panda faces on either side of her head, a light mint dress with pink frills on the sleeves and the hemline of the dress with a pink collar and two small pompoms on the middle, purple stockings, and blue boots with lavender soles and pink brims.She also wears a blue tail with a pink pom pom on the end,in similar fashion to her older brother. She seems to also wear a light lavender shirt under the dress and blue wrist-length gloves with pink cuffs.
==Personality ==
Not much is known about Marifa, except that she is a trickster who feigns innocence in front of her brother, who believes that she is without fault. Popee's reasoning is that he can't possibly think his sister is anything other than a good person.https://twitter.com/Ryuji_Masuda/status/841833110144602113 Kedamono is aware of her true nature, however.https://twitter.com/Ryuji_Masuda/status/839273276769619968 Ryuji Masuda refers to her as a "sweet devil".https://twitter.com/Ryuji_Masuda/status/858452210551627776 Marifa is innocent, though she is selfish.https://twitter.com/Ryuji_Masuda/status/839294203712589825 Despite being a trickster, she is not violent like her brother.https://twitter.com/Ryuji_Masuda/status/858452210551627776
