Jennu

* Game
* Manga

**Jennu** (ジェンヌ, *Jen'nu*) is one of the main characters in *World's End Club* and a member of the Go-Getters Club.

## Appearance

 Jennu is a 12-year-old 6th grade Japanese elementary schooler. She has very fair skin and a lean build. She has purple eyes with light green accents that resemble a rose. Her top eyelashes are light green, and her lower lashes are purple. She has dirty blonde hair with purple streaks, cut into a pixie cut which falls to the nape of her neck in the back. She wears a military-type shirt which has dark navy sleeves and collar, a white front panel, purple accents on the rolled-up sleeve cuffs, gold buttons on both the cuffs and the epaulettes, and four gold rose-shaped buttons or appliques near the bottom hem. The back of her shirt has an ornate wing pattern, signifying her as representing the Rooster in the Chinese Zodiac. She also wears a purple flower shaped pendant with the chain tucked under her collar. She wears light pastel ankle-grazer pants, light purple socks, and black and white Oxford shoes.

## Personality

Contrary to her elegance and beauty, Jennu is strong, brave, and often more macho in behavior than some of the boys in her class. She is mature for her age, acting as a guardian for her classmates and trying to look out for everyone. She is especially respectful towards other girls.

Jennu is a big fan of the Hosekizuka Troupe (宝石塚歌劇団), an in-universe equivalent to Takarazuka Revue, an all-female musical theatre troupe. Her dream is to one day become a member of the troupe. She is extremely defensive of the troupe, and becomes enraged if anybody insults them. In the past, she has even had physical fights with others as a result.

## History

Not much is known on Jennu's backstory before the events of World's End Club, let alone when she joined the Go-Getters Club. What we do know from the game is that her father is a doctor and she had an older sister, who tradgetically died in Kyoto by an earthquake after visiting her presumably soon-to-be-spouse, as Jennu describe him as a "brother-in-law". We also know about her sister is that she is what introduced Jennu into the Hosekizuka Troupe.

## Powers and Abilities

### Buddy Skill

Jennu's Buddy Skill, **Gravity Flip** (ドンデンガエシ, *Donden gaeshi*, lit. "Plot Twist") allows her to reverse the flow of gravity for herself, enabling her to stand on the ceiling or avoid dangerous terrain.

## Trivia

* Jennu's name, written in Japanese as ジェンヌ, references her interest in the Hosekizuka Troupe, which is an in-universe equivalent to the Takarazuka Revue. Fans of the Takarazuka Revue often refer to members of the cast as Takarajennu (タカラ**ジェンヌ**) or Takarasienne, which is a portmanteau of Takarazuka and the Japanese slang term Parisienne (パリジェンヌ) which refers to fashionable girls. Takarajennu is often abbreviated to Jennu (ジェンヌ), spelled identically to Jennu's name.
