Anna Clement

Captain Anna Clement is a supporting character in Code Geass: Akito the Exiled. She is an officer in the armed forces of Europia United (EU), who serves as the chief engineer of the wZero unit and the creator of their standard knightmares, the Alexanders. She is also both the best friend of the series deuteragonist Leila Malcal and the secret love interest of Yukiya Naruse.
== History ==
Anna was born into the prestigious Clement family, one of the wealthiest aristocratic families of the E.U. During her high school years she was the classmate and best friend of Leila Malcal, with two eventually joining the military together and serving in the same unit. After being assigned to the wZero unit, Anna designed their standard knightmares, the Alexanders, and provided logistics alongside Leila in the units command center during missions. During this time she struck a friendship with Akito, whom Leila secretly had feelings for, with her often gossiping to him about Leila’s martial art skills.
After the former terrorists, Riyo, Ayano, and Yukiya, were placed in the wZero unit, Anna protested over Leila joining them on their mission to retake the city of Solim, fearing for her friend’s life. However, after the mission proved successful, Anna was relieved to the point of tears. While Leila was away, however, she took on the role of caring for her pet cat, though she was unable to win her affections. Additionally, when Leila apparently went missing Anna was deeply worried but was overjoyed when she eventually returned safe. Following this, Anna became closer to the wZero unit recruits as well, with her soon developing romantic feelings for Yukiya due to their shared interests in technology.
During the final battles against Shin Hyuga, Anna provided logistical support to the wZero recruits and upgraded their knightmares for deeper combat. Just prior to the final battle, Anna proved essential in rescuing her crush Yukiya, when his Knightmare sank under the lake by the wZero headquarters. During this ordeal, she provided the information on how to access the emergency safety systems of his Knightmare, which allowed his cockpit to be cushioned up to the surface. Though this saved his life, Yukiya remained critically injured from the battle forcing him to receive emergency treatment meant. When Anna learned about this she fainted out of concern for her love’s state, but was carried back to the castle by Major Hammel.
Anna soon awoke in time for the final battle with Shin’s forces during which she along with her comrades gunned down by the Britannian commandos who stormed the command center. Fortunately, she and the others were resurrected when the Dimensional Supervisor reset the timeline, allowing her to survive the final battle.
== Personality ==
Anna is an exceptionally kindhearted girl, who care deeply for her loved ones and wishes to do good with her mechanical skills. Despite being a soldier, she, like her best friend Leila, is a pacifist at heart and wishes to end conflicts without fighting. Unlike many in the E.U. army and citizenry, who discriminate against the Japanese refugees in the country, Anna harbors no such prejudice and is disgusted by her nations racist policies. In truth, she cares deeply for the Japanese soldiers in the wZero unit that are deemed expendable by the European government, and wishes to ensure their safety as they are sent on suicidal missions. The extent of her care towards the Japanese is best highlighted by her attraction to Yukiya Naruse, a Japanese soldier himself.
Anna is a brilliant engineer and scientist, having designed numerous advanced weapons for the E.U. forces including the Alexander Knightmare frame. Despite this, she secretly disdains making weapons that hurt people and wants to use her intellect for more passive pursuits. Despite her intellect, Anna is extremely emotional and is prone to crying during stressful situations, especially when she is worried that something has happened to someone she cares about, mostly Leila. Additionally, she has a tendency of gossiping and will often reveal information her friends don’t generally want others to know, much to their annoyance. 
Anna is exceptionally loyal to those she cares for, especially her best friend Leila. However, she seems to possess a somewhat naïveté and inexperience in the field of romance, keeping her feelings secret from those she is attracted to. This is especially the case with her current crush, Yukiya. This attraction is primarily due to Yukiya’s high intellect and his skill with computers and machinery. In addition, her attraction to him also highlights her forgiving nature, being able to see the best in others despite their past, as she was able to forgive Yukiya’s past crimes and mental instability, recognizing the kinder person he is deep down.
