**Kuno Kirara** is a main character in *Blue Reflection Sun* and a supporting character in *Blue Reflection Tie*.

## About

Kirara comes off as mysterious, intelligent and reserved. At a young age, she began hearing voices from The Divine and as such, was made fun of by her peers for the ability to see future events.

Though not a Reflector herself, she provides passive support and permanent stat boosts to the other characters in Tie. She was previously an Eroded and a member of SOLiD during the events of Sun.

## Profile

### Appearance

Kirara has short, messy brunette hair that largely covers one of her pale, violet eyes. She wears an older, conservative style of school uniform, olive green in color, with white neck and sleeve collars, and a red neck ribbon. She also wears white, knee length socks and brown loafers.

As an Eroded, Kirara has green hair and purple eyes. She wears a short forest green dress with white ruffles and a pink neck ribbon. There is a large cutaway in the front of her dress. She also wears pale gold gauntlets and leg armor. A series of familiars resembling Yamata no Orochi are attached to her back.

Kirara fights from a distance using bits (floating orb-shaped machines).

### Personality

Calm, and a bit sleepy looking, Kirara has a quirky sense of humor and a peculiar belief system. On the surface, her personality may appear to be the opposite of Hoshizaki Ao's, but as both are nerdy and playful, they become fast friends.

She is a bit sensitive to the fact that she hasn't grown quite as quickly as some of the other girls.

## Story

### Blue Reflection Tie

After her Heartscape appears, Ao and the others venture in and finds Kirara unconscious in front of them. They then take her to the school's infirmary and Yuzu remarks that she's still alive, but weak. Ao eventually thinks that the embarrassing memories of the other girls would be powerful enough to wake her, so they set about gathering up the memories. Afterwards, the memories are processed and physically manifest into a form of medication. After taking the medication, Kirara wakes up to a similar predicament as the others, where she has no memory, but at least seems to remember a little about her ability.

Ao and the others venture into her Heartscape again and learn that Kirara's Father became obsessed with her power of clairvoyance, after their village residents praised her for preventing a bear attack. He takes advantage of her ability to see the future to further his career as a politician.

Kirara's friend, a runaway named Yuka, is made a scapegoat after a treasured urn in the village is destroyed. To protect her friend, Kirara goes against her Father's wishes and reveals that it was the Mayor's son who broke the urn. This upsets her Father's chances of advancement.

She mentions afterwards that she went back to being the village's oracle, though she doesn't say if her Father continued his political career.

#### Case 02

Kirara returns from a mission with Morisaki Alesia Yu and Azumi Nanaka, and meets the Protagonist in the Literature Club meeting room. Some of the group members, including the Protagonist, are called to the Guidance Room by Shijou Ayaka.

The Protagonist returns to the club meeting room later, to find that all the girls have left except Kirara. She tells him that he needs to make her buddy (combat partner), Nanaka, feel better. Nanaka has been refusing to go on missions, and since Kirara is obligated to have a buddy on missions, she has not been able to properly deploy on missions either. Nanaka will not open up to Kirara about her troubles.

Hehehe...
Shall I invite you to the world of unknown.Is it fine to interpret that Kirara is being recognized as an apostle of God,
thus not being counted as a human?
