Seira Orgel

Seira Orgel (星来・オルジェル, Seira Orujeru) is a fictional character from the anime Blood Tune (shorten in Burachu). She is a magical girl and Takumi Nishijou’s favourite delusion who often comforts him. In the anime Blood Tune, she has a younger sister named Erin-fray Orgel, a fellow magical girl, and a romantic rival, Sedna Février, who is a bounty hunter.
Her real name as an ordinary high school student when she is not in magical girl mode is Seira Amanogawa (天之河 星来, Amanogawa Seira). She is also the Princess of ☆, her home planet.
==Appearance ==
Seira has long, bright pink hair and big, lilac eyes, and a single earring in her left ear. She is large-chested and small waisted with slim, powerful limbs.
She wears futuristically styled high-heeled combat boots, and thigh-length leggings. She wears a bikini bottom, over which she wears a dress shirt-like jacket with the bust area cut out and tight, blue spandex over her chest. The outfit is completed with her short, red tie, long fingerless gloves that reach up to her mid upper-arm, and an oversized hat, plus her giant spiked magic stick “Samurai☆Condenser” (サムライ☆コンデンサ, Samurai☆Kondensa).
==Personality==
Seira’s personality is that of the stereotypical moe anime character. She talks in a cute voice and calls Takumi Nishijou by the nickname Takki. She usually appears in his delusions whenever he is stressed or indecisive. She acts as for the voice for the weakness in his heart and always tells him to take the cowardly or self-serving option when faced with danger. She is mostly a support for Takumi, is his favourite anime girl, and he has many statues of her.
==Background==
==Plot==
When Takumi is going to save Rimi and stop Noah II, he encounters a Seira figure in the train tunnel. A hundred Seiras appear around him and start attacking him. He slays many of them with his DI-sword, but they succeed in crushing his left hand from the elbow down and dislocating his right shoulder. In the end, when they have neared killed Takumi, he asked “Aren’t you from an anime?” and all of them disappear. 
==Merchandise==
A 1/8 figure of Seira was released by Orchid Seed in 2010. Just like the post-awakening figure that Takumi Nishijou mentioned in the visual novel and the anime, the figure of Seira has cast-offable clothing.
There is also a light novel adaptation of Blood Tune that features Seira as the heroine, called Blood Tune The NOVELIZATION. It is probably one of the few light novels that exists in the real world which is adapted from an anime that does not even exist.
==Quotes==
==Trivia==
* Seira likes standing soba noodle restaurants, injections (medicine) and Ovando (a pro baseball player), but dislikes well-mannered people and football.
* Seira's birthstone is the emerald.
* During her spare time, Seira likes to practice baseball.
* Seira has a giant spiked magic stick called “Samurai☆Condenser” (サムライ☆コンデンサ, Samurai☆Kondensa), similar to her sister Erin’s magic stick “Ochimusha☆Compiler”.
* Seira’s favourite phrase, “boke nasu” (ぼけなす), literally means “faded eggplant”, a popular insult in Japanese slang meaning “half-wit”, “dunce”, “idiot”, “fool”, “stupid”, “moron”, etc. Like many Japanese puns, “boke nasu” relies on a double meaning, specifically how “boke” can refer to a faded color, but can also refer to the type of joke where you say something absurd to someone else to try and get a funny reaction out of them (e.g. calling them a faded eggplant), from the manzai tradition of Japanese comedy duos, in which the funny man who acts stupid is called the “boke”, and their partner, the more intelligent and serious “tsukkomi” (突っ込み, tsukkomi), is always correcting the errors of the stupid “boke”, often by hitting them on the head with a fan (similarly to how Seira hits her opponents violently with her magic stick). There is another layer of irony to this pun too, because typically the “boke” is the person who says stupid/absurd things, but when you say “boke nasu”, you are the one saying the stupid/absurd thing (calling them “nasu”, an eggplant) while also accusing the other person of being the “boke”, which is totally backwards. This is a more creative way of insulting someone’s intelligence than the typical “baka” (馬鹿) which just literally means “fool”, “idiot”, etc. and is the most common insult in Japanese.
