Shiro (No Game No Life)

Shiro is the main female protagonist from the No Game No Life series.
== Charactah Account ==
Sora's younger, 11-year-old stepsister and fellow gamer, this time as the analytical half of "『　　』". Shiro is described as a genius in logic and problems, but has difficulty understanding emotions or behavior, relying on Sora to help her defeat beings with emotions such as Tet in their chess match. She also rarely shows much emotion at all and, despite her genius intellect, speaks in short, terse sentences and in a third-person perspective.
Shiro is a master of Chess and has won every chess game that she has played. She can speak 18 languages and learnsImanity's language in under 15 minutes (while Sora needed an hour). She is also excellent with games and, along with her brother, is the best in more than 280 games. She is shown to have a dry and somewhat twisted sense of humor, displaying signs of jealousy if Sora pays serious attention to other girls, showing she has a brother complex. She is also shown to be very sarcastic when it comes to Stephanie, although she calls her "just a friend". She is also not above teasing Sora about his mildly perverse tendencies.
Shiro is extremely close to her brother, to the point of requiring him to be by her side in order to function correctly. If Shiro is separated from Sora by so much as a closed door, she becomes almost catatonic until he returns to her. This can generate problems as when Shiro bathes; she does not want Sora to see her naked yet she can't be separated from him far enough to not be seen. This can be resolved with the presence of steam to cloud their view enough. However, Shiro also generally dislikes bathing as it stiffens her hair, although this was resolved by the Spiritwater Blend shampoo from Jibril.

== Trivia ==
* Shiro means white in Japanese, which is possibly a reference to her albino appearance.
** Interestingly, this is parallel to Schwi, who when asked by Riku what she should be referred to as other than her identification code, her first choice is Schwarzer meaning 'Black One' in German.
* In concept artwork, Shiro was the sole protagonist of the series under the name Kurami, they share many similarities such as being abandoned by their parents at a young age, however, Kurami does not have a brother.
* Shiro wears short skirts that give her a tendency to pull it down from time to time.
* Shiro is afraid of snakes, and can't swim.
* When her body turned 18 by getting extra dices during the Sugoroku game, Shiro didn't grow in either the height or chest department.
* Shiro and Sora's surname was said to be "Nai" by the author. This can be interpreted that their surname is literally Nai or that they have no surname, as Nai in Japanese means none (which is likely a reference to 『　　』).
* Her name is pronounced similar to Zero, which becomes more clear when her name is spelled in English/Immanity (Siro) ("Si" is another way to romanize "Shi").
* Shiro is very similar to Mashiro Shiina from The Pet Girl of Sakurasou in terms of characterization -- both of them are soft-spoken geniuses with no ability to take care of themselves voiced by Ai Kayano, and have "Shiro" in their name.
** Not to mention that Mashiro's love interest and the male protagonist of her respective show, is also a teenage boy with "Sora" in his name (Sorata Kanda), voiced by Yoshitsugu Matsuoka.
