## Background

Rika Ayano once had a crush on her female best friend, only for her friend to have a crush on another boy in their class. Ayano runs into Hinano Miyako and Emiri Kisaki, who explain they’re magical girls.

As she is walking home, she is approached by Kyubey. Thinking back on her crush and the advice given to her by Hinano and Emiri, she decides to contract and wishes that her crush fall in love with her instead. The next day, sure enough her best friend has broken things off with the guy and is now head over heels for Ayano.

Ayano, however, knows that this is not true love and only a result of her wish manipulating her friend’s feelings. She then begins to fight witches recklessly, not caring if she’s hurt in the process. Hinano finds her and asks her what’s wrong. Ayano explains that her crush’s ex-boyfriend helped her out the other day which caused Ayano to realize her two friends were perfect for each other and she ruined that. So Ayano broke up with her crush and urged the two friends to get back together as penance for what she did. Hinano cries alongside her at this sad tale before Ayano cheers them both up.

## Abilities

Ayano has gained the ability to change what her target is interested in as a result of her wish. This ability can be used to re-direct the attention of her enemies onto another person or object or to simply make others interested in her if she desires to get their attention. The limits of this ability aren't exactly known but it seems Ayano is able to use this ability to keep any number of people interested with her at any one time.

Within combat, Ayano possesses a magical compact mirror that can fire concentrated blasts of energy. She can do these as small energy balls or as a large concentrated beam during her Magia attack, though one can primarily say her primary form of offence is by manipulating amounts of light energy to harm her enemies.
