Shiina (Angel Beats!)

Shiina, also known as Shiinacchi, Eri Shiina, C7 and Female Ninja, is a character from the Angel Beats! series.
== Charactah Account ==
Shiina is a member of the Afterlife War Front and a "self-proclaimed female ninja" who fights with traditional Japanese weapons such as dual-wielding kodachiand shuriken. She acts as one of the front liners of the club and is an enigmatic character whose past is covered in mystery.
Shiina usually puts up a tough and quiet front, but she is extremely fond of cute things, especially stuffed animals, even though it may be a set-up or a trap of the enemy. It also seems that she is overprotective of the stuffed animals she has, and she often mistakes them for real animals which leads her easily into traps.
Shiina is able to sense when danger is coming. She is good when it comes to concentrating and is very strict in her training and would continue with her training even when she is needed to do something else. Shiina's training mostly consist of balancing objects such as broomsticks, scissors, and mops on her fingertip, sometimes balancing one on each of her fingers simultaneously while doing something else. She also says in the later episodes that Otonashi should consider the fact that when she's fighting or in battle with them she makes the team seem like it's 100 men stronger.

== Trivia ==
* Shiina's blood type is A.
* Shiina was a contestant of the voting contest Anime Saimoe Tournament 2010 but lost to Alisa Bannings in the first round of the main tournament.
* Shiina compares her abilities to 100 men.
* The broom balanced on Shiina's fingertip did not fall in episode 4, even though she was playing baseball. Later, she is seen balancing the broom as well as a pair of scissors and a ruler on the same hand.
* On the Drama CDs, Shiina can be heard laughing.
* On the OVA Stairway to Heaven, Shiina reached the tension meter up to 9999 just by saying "Cute!!" in front of Kanade Tachibana. Many anime fans compare this to the now infamous meme "It's over 9000!" spoken by Vegeta from the Dragon Ball Z series.
* Although Shiina is often silent in the anime series, she speaks frequently in the Drama CDs.
* There could be a possibility that Shiina's given name is "Eri" as in Episode 3 when Yuri and the rest of SSS intruded Kanade's computer and found a name list. A name stated "Shina Eri" is seen on the screen which Yuri mentioned that their names are on it too. However, romaji "Shina" cannot be typed into Shiina's kanji name, although the English spelling could have just been spelled wrong. It is possible that this name may or may not be an NPC. This later proved to be false after the release of the 24th Chapter of Angel Beats! Heaven's Door, which her name 'Shiina' was given to her by Yuri that came from Shiina's codename "C7" (Shii-nana)
* When Shiina died in Operation: Guild Descend 2, Yuzuru Otonashi, Ooyama and Hideki Hinata cried.
* Shiina is no longer a ninja in Drama CD 3, instead, she's a professional programmer, who programmed the 'large puppy' that attacked the former SSS.
* Shiina's weakness to cute things is still present in Drama CD 3, even though she had a new life after getting obliterated.
* Shiina has the same trait with Yuiko Kurugaya of Little Busters! due to their crazy interests over cute things.
* Most of the time, a wooden like click sound would play when Shiina begins to speak in the original series.
* Shiina doesn't wear a bra.
** Instead, Shiina tightens her chest in bandages to help movement speed.
* Shiina is the only character who is never seen wielding a gun at some point.
** Instead, Shiina uses shuriken for ranged attacks.
* According to the visual novel, Shiina has been in the afterlife the longest with her being there for 100 years.
* Shiina appears to be fond of sob stories, specifically ones regarding a significant other.
* In Heaven's Door, Shiina appears to smile significantly a lot more compared to the anime and visual novel.
