Anastasia (iDOLM@STER)

Anastasia, also known as Anya, is one of the main characters from the THE iDOLM@STER: Cinderella Girls series.
== Charactah Account ==
An aristocratic half-Russian who adores astronomy and celestial constellations.
Anastasia is grouped with Minami, and together they make up the idol unit Love Laika. Come the second season, however, Anya is one of those scouted by Mishiro for Project KRONE. She eventually joins it, with support from Minami, and in the process renders Love Laika defunct until its reformation for the Winter Ball.
Anya is rather naive and has been taught all kinds of weird things by fellow idols (such as jokes from Kaede Takagaki and Ranko Kanzaki's speech pattern). Anya is proud of her Russian heritage. Except for the Cold War/Space Race stuff, she avoids the Soviet Union era, focusing on traditional and Imperial Russia.
