Princess of the royal family in the Special Area. The fifth child of Emperor Malt and a concubine. She grew up establishing the Rose-Order of Knights, an all-female knight group. After her encounter with the JSDF at Italica, she became a mediator for peace negotiations between Japan and the Empire.
Pina Co Lada has a serious and stern personality but after spending some time together with Itami she discovered otakuculture and was greatly influenced by it. She is also not familiar with the culture of Japan as seen when the delegate reaching her hand out which, in the princess's culture, is apparently only done for wedding ceremonies. Fortunately, one of the aides tells her what to do. Pina is extremely loyal to the Empire and will do anything to ensure its survival.
Originally, she was confident that the Empire, due to its inexpugnable history, will never be defeated. However, after seeing the superior military power of the JSDF, and had later personally visited Japan, Pina later realized how inferior, in every way, the Empire was compared to Japan. Thus she saw it much favorable to establish peace with Japan rather than to continue to wage war against such a potent nation. However, unlike her father and brother, she is smart and wise enough to attempt to smuggle guns through the gate in an attempt to reverse-engineer the weapon for the Empire, despite its failed miserably in the end due to her lack of understanding about metal detector.
