**Ricka Machiyuki** (待雪 六花, *Machiyuki Rikka*) is one of Kazuki’s classmates who mysterious transferred in after they did. Oddly, she is shown to be even less familiar with social norms and current trends, and she socially struggles around others. Later, it is revealed that she is a reformed assassin who was originally sent after Kazuki for abandoning the village. She chose to stay and joins the Ninja Seeking Club instead, she is one of Kazuki Araya's wives.

## Appearance

Ricka has a fair complexion with sharp azure eyes and short silver hair cut inches above her shoulder. Her spiked bangs are layered beneath her forelocks, which have an intake at the top of the head and cover her ears. On the side is a diamond clip with a blue pearl in the center.
Instead of a blazer, she wears a black vest with her school uniform.

In ninja attire, she dons a white bathing suit-style piece with blue and gold detail on the fabric partially covering her breasts. Over this is a light blue sleeveless vest with gold lining and long, flowing tails. A dark navy obi wraps around the waist with a snowflake and two light blue skinny stripes, and on the back is a long white ribbon. She also wears light blue wrist guards with two blue bracelets and a snowflake band beneath her left shoulder. Her white boots have a blue ribbon tied around the leg and are paired with light blue stockings.

## Personality

A stoic and straight-laced young woman who often creates a mysterious mood around her; especially when she says unsettling things that make others uneasy. Her classmates can only hope she's just kidding. She keeps her cool and usually has an unwavering poker-face when in public, but around Kazuki, she becomes severely flustered and easily embarrassed. She is referred to as a *kuudere*.

She connects with them over how she struggles to relate to current things outside of their old village and she is shown to be an even *worse* student than them and is a lot more awkward. But as she begins to adjust she takes a strong liking to current, interesting things like video games and fried noodle hotdogs.

## Abilities/Jutsu

Ricka specializes in ice jutsu. She can freeze the air around her, create mist, form pillars of ice, and freeze her surroundings by releasing a frigid aura. She has full control over her power and sometimes uses it outside of combat for trivial use like to cure being hot- although it was this that led to Nanao discovering the Club was full of actual ninjas. It is revealed in Season 23 that her abilities were not learned in the Daikou village, but in the Tokakushi village.

She was also trained to be an assassin, and she wields two chakrams/shurikens as her preferred weapon.

## History

### Visual Novel

#### Moe! Ninja Girls

##### Prologue

The group was finally finished with cleaning their club room. After Yamabuki asks Kazuki if Myu is what you would call "mai waifu" and Tengge asks him if he would like someone more mature like her as his wife, Ricka questions Kazuki getting married while still a student. When John tells the girls that Kazuki isn't the only guy here and that he wants to be in a harem too, everyone, including Ricka, said nothing in response.

They then take the group photo in commemoration of the beginning of the Ninja Seeking Club. Ricka is in the back row, saying that Yamabuki is so close to her before they take the picture.

##### Season 1

Ricka attacks Kazuki after his first day of school. It started snowing which was done by Ricka. They had a good fight, and Kazuki eventually had to use the Kamuy which grazed her clothes. Despite Kazuki telling her to leave, she wasn't going to quit. As they were prepared to end the fight with their next attack, John shouted about the snow that Ricka created, giving her time to escape.

The next day at school, she showed up as a transfer student. During their class, Ricka was throwing poison needles at Kazuki during class. After class, Akari introduces herself to Ricka and John talks about the ninja that he saw yesterday. Ricka is hearing all this, and she gives John a fierce glare after John joins in on Kazuki's conversation about how ninjas are supposed to work in the shadows. What John said to anger her was that it must have been a very dumb ninja.

While Akari was trying to recruit members for the Ninja Seeking club, Ricka was staying with them quietly because of her duty as an assassin. As time went on, Kazuki noticed that Ricka hasn't attacked him once. He goes to find Ricka. They talk on the rooftop, and Ricka says she is disappearing tomorrow. Kazuki tells her not to until she completed her mission, and Ricka doesn't understand him since her mission is to kill him. Ricka says being here will break "it" down. To be more precise, for someone who lived in the shadows, the sunny side is too bright for her. She believes this the ordinariness is a light that shouldn't be reached.
Kazuki then tells Ricka why he left his village, how manga changed his life, and that he was able to meet many people at this school, including her. Thanks to Kazuki's words, Ricka decides to join the club, not to leave Mizaki School, and to keep the fact that they are ninjas a secret.
