Mary Campbell

Don't feel bad about hitting her on the head. She won't feel it until years later.

### Occupation

An employee at Popov's Big Top Yogurt-Topia

## Appearances

### Debut

Mary Campbell Suteki no Sunshine

**Mary Campbell** is the titular protagonist of *Mary Campbell Suteki no Sunshine*. She is a 24-year-old American woman who never went to college and works a dead end job at Popov’s Big Top Yogurt-Topia. After accidentally buying two mysterious VHS tapes, she ends up freeing both Sunny Day Jack and Scarlotte from their analog prisons. She is blissfully unaware of their initial feelings for her due to a cocktail mixture of being aro ace and incomprehensibly stupid.

## Appearance

Mary is a normal petite woman with light skin, brown hair styled into a side ponytail and large brown eyes. She wears a pink sleeveless top with a tie in a darker shade and a pair of yellow shorts held up by a blue belt with a bow in the front. Her footwear consists of a pair of white socks and a pair of dark pink Mary Jane shoes.

At night, she wears a frilly pajama set and loosens her hair.

In the pool and beach episodes, she’s seen wearing a pink frilly one piece swimsuit.

Though it is customary for animated series to have characters wear the same thing most of the time, apparently Mary wears the same thing almost every day because she believes not thinking about what to wear would make her smarter. Ironically, she still worries about this even though her closet is filled with the exact same outfit.

## Personality

Mary is a very chipper and carefree woman who lives a life oblivious to the reality around her. It quickly becomes apparent that she is not very bright. In fact, she’s not bright at all. She’s dumb. Extremely dumb. Though thankfully not dumb enough to be unable to function. Well, if you ignore the time she lost against a rock during a test, that is.

The most notable thing about her is her inability to pick up on someone expressing romantic or sexual interest no matter how obvious it is, much to the dismay of Jack and Scarlotte. Due to being asexual and aromantic, Mary has no interest in being in a relationship with either but she considers them her best friends and at the very least shares a platonic bond.

While usually very sweet, there are occasions when Mary would act like a spoiled child and throw a temper tantrum. She is also quite selfish a lot of the time which turns out to be a result of being coddled by her entire family.

She is very loud and for some reason has a habit of using gratuitous Japanese whenever she speaks.

## Relationships

### Sunny Day Jack

Mary became best friends with Sunny Day Jack fairly quickly, especially since he made sure to decide that for her. They get along fairly well throughout the fanime but she never picks up on his feelings for her and thus Jack’s love for Mary ends up unrequited. She remains his best friend even when he is reverted back to his true form (though she can’t tell that Sunny Day Jack and Mr. Haberdae are the same entity).

### Scarlotte

Despite Scarlotte being more bold with her advances, Mary doesn’t pick up on it but still considers her her best friend. While their bond is put into question when it’s revealed that Scarlotte is only flirting with Mary to piss off Jack, it becomes apparent that she does genuinely value their friendship. Much like Jack, Mary is still friends with Scarlotte even when she is reverted.

### Ian Duff

Ian Duff is Mary’s ex-boyfriend even though she was not only unaware of that but she was also unaware that he thought they were dating. Even though Mary wasn’t phased by him sleeping with someone, Ian spent much of the fanime trying to do right by her and ends up shattered when he finds out she never shared romantic feelings with him.

### Shaun Durand-Cofer

Shaun is another person Mary considers one of her best friends. Unlike other characters, Shaun is aware of Mary being aro ace and doesn’t have romantic or sexual feelings for her. Mary likes it when Shaun comes to crash at her place since they have a lot of sleepovers. She didn’t pick up on why Shaun was initially distrustful of Sunny Day Jack and Scarotte.

### Nicholas ‘Nick’ Herrera

Mary is very friendly towards Nick and oblivious to his interest in her. It is unknown if she considers him one of her best friends since he doesn’t appear as much as other characters.

### Barry

Barry hates Mary with a burning passion and she is blissfully unaware of that. She does consider Barry a friend and is very nice to him. Unfortunately, her stupidity often lands him in trouble.

## Trivia

* In episode 8, it is revealed via an x-ray that Mary’s brain is extremely small and most of her skull is filled with various objects she shoved up her nose when she was a child. Her skull is thicker than normal.
* It is revealed that Mary’s main source of income is her parents which explains why she is able to live a more comfortable life than most.
* Mary is the only character in the fanime who doesn’t pick up on the fact that Sunny Day Jack and Mr. Haberdae are one in the same. The same goes for Scarlotte and Sanne.
* Though heights are never consistent, Mary is shown to be the shortest out of the adult characters

* According to the creator, if Mary were to encounter an eldritch abomination, her sanity would remain intact due to her ability to grasp them being lower than most people, thus she can’t be filled with dread no matter how incomprehensible.
* Mary Campbell is one of two charaters whose abbreviated name spells MC, an obvious nod to her status as the main character of the fanime. The other character is Mitzi Cooper.
