Frill Shiranui

* Anime
* Manga

**Frill Shiranui**「不知火 (しらぬい)  フリル, *Shiranui Furiru*?」 is a supporting character in *Oshi no Ko* manga series. She is a student of the Youtou High School's Performing Art Programs and a classmate of Ruby Hoshino. She is a multi-talented performer who can sing, dance, and act.

## Appearance

By the words of Ruby Hoshino, Frill is the first person most people think of when they hear "pretty girl" with waist-length dark-green hair that she wears loose with her bangs parted on the right side, yellow-green eyes with slit-like pupils resembling a cat and two beauty marks; one on the lower right side of her lips and one under her left eye.

## Personality

Frill appears to be an aloof girl of few words and is attentive to the careers of others, quickly recognizing Minami Kotobuki and Aqua Hoshino and remembering their previous jobs when she first meets them.

Another facet of her personality is her sense of humor, which has been referred to as "actually pretty funny." When it comes to acting, her demeanor can dramatically shift based on whatever role is assigned to her. Such versatility in covering a wide range of emotions and personalities is what enabled her to build strong connections and make a name for herself. Despite this fact that made her in-demand, she still believes that actors should be chosen for the role because they are qualified, not because of connections.

## Skills & Talents

One of only two five-star entertainers in the series, the other being Taiki Himekawa, Fill is famous for being a multi-talented performer who can sing, dance, and act. However, arguably her biggest asset is her sheer popularity, which is often enough for people to hire her, with her already being well-known by the time of her introduction and her notoriety not having waned since.
