## Appearance

### Human

In her human form, she is described by 7753 as being in her late teens with brown hair.

### Magical Girl

As a Magical Girl, Hana has short, periwinkle hair with bangs and white bunny ears with pink insides. On the sides of her hair, she wears two fluffy white clips, with patterned red bows at the end of each clip, with two strands on each side with a spherical decorative ornament at the end of each strand. She has red eyes with circle patterns inside.

Hana wears a white, kimono-like attire with wide sleeves. She also wears a black ribbon choker. The sleeves of her kimono reach to her knees and have red insides. On the outside of each sleeve, there is a red flower pattern. Around the body of her kimono is a wide red and black patterned belt with white lace decorated with red and black circles around the edges. There is a white, fluffy ball that resembles her ear clips in the middle, tied around with a black string.

She wears white stockings with black lace at the top that resemble garter belts and red sandals with a black line.

## Personality

Hana is an extremely kind individual with a happy-go-lucky outlook on life. She often finds herself apologizing for Mana's brash personality and was warm and welcoming to newcomers of the investigation team, such as happily greeting 7753, despite being late and shy sometimes.

When angered, however, she shows no fear or remorse and would happily sacrifice herself for the ones she cares about.

Due to her magic and position within the Examination Division, Hana is extremely competent at tracking individuals and fighting, her strength being her agility and fast reflexes.

## Magic

***Can make senses incredibly sharp.***

Hana is able to raise the senses of any nearby creature. Hana is able to arbitrarily choose and adjust the target of her magic, the sense that she wants to amplify, and how much it will be amplified. If used on the opponent, the increase in sense sharpness can inhibit or worsen the enemy's condition, causing them to faint.

The range of effect is within a radius of about 3 meters. She can apply her magic to multiple people at the same time, but the more people there are under her magic, the harder it is for her to adjust the effect.

Due to her magic, Hana’s own five senses are also extremely keen.

## Relationships

### Mana

Hana and Mana consider each other to be like sisters. The two share a mutual affection for one another. They are introduced as teammates and later revealed to be like family.

Hana is the one that understands Mana most, and feels comfortable enough with Mana to tease her. Hana assures those around her with confidence that Mana is a good person, even though Mana is quick to anger when stressed.

Hana puts her life on the line for both Mana and 7753 when Pukin stumbles upon their path, even despite her injuries. Eventually, however, Mana will avenged Hana who is get killed by Pukin.

### 7753

Hana and 7753 are teammates.

Opposite to Mana, Hana was polite and welcoming to 7753 upon her recruitment into the Investigation Team, attempting to explain Mana's hostile behavior as kindly as possible and defuse tension. The two of them later share a conversation in which 7753 tells Hana to call her just 'Nana,' as Hana calling her by her full name of "seventy-seven-five-three" seemed odd. The resulting confusion causes Ripple to laugh at their mix-up.

### Archfiend Pam

After spectating Hana's battle against Styler Mimi in her *36th Hell Survival Games*, Pam acknowledged her strength and dedication to fighting, believing she still had potential.

In *Limited*, Hana and Pam were teammates. Although having rarely interacted, both Hana and Pam appear to share a mutual trust as teammates, as demonstrated when Pam prioritized Hana's safety before battle.

### Ripple

Ripple and Hana were teammates during the events of *Limited*.

### Weddin

They were not on good terms with each other. Hana was tied up by Kuru-Kuru Hime after getting distracted by Weddin. However, Hana was able to break free and tied up to two instead. Eventually, she saw Weddin escaping and proceeded to chase after them until the Prisoners interrupted them.

### Kuru-Kuru Hime

They're enemies at first since they were in opposite sides. After Kuru-Kuru Hime ends up with the Investigation Team, they both realize they’re not each other’s enemy.

### Pukin

During the events of *Limited*, Hana is a biggest fear and get captured by Pukin and the rest of the escaped prisoners. The two of them are extremely confrontational towards one another, with Pukin even slicing the top of one of Hana's ears.

Sometime later, after Hana escapes, the two of them run into each other again. They fight, which ends with Pukin stabbing Hana in the chest. Hana dies shortly after their fight.

### Styler Mimi

Styler Mimi and Hana fought during Archfiend Pam's *36th Hell Survival Games* and was outplayed by her as Hana stepped out of the ring unintentionally. This resulted in her being disqualified.
