## Physical Appearance

Reina is a young woman of average height and a slender build. She has fair skin, pale green eyes, and black hair that reaches her waist, styled in a hime-cut. She has a beauty mark on the left side of her face, above her upper lip.

## Background

Reina hails from a family of priests and priestesses. Every week, she dons her shrine maiden outfit and sweeps around the centuries-old shrine, as well as aids locals who wish to use the shrine. Her family consists of her, her parents, three older brothers, a younger sister, and her grandmother. Her eldest brother is the current heir to the Kurotara Shrine, after her father. She has a white cat named Yoshi, who she considers to be a good-luck charm.

Reina is a natural at archery and is the leader of Mikomi High's archery club. When life proves too stressful, for her, she finds relief in archery and yoga. She is also one of the top students at the school.

Her younger sister, Momo, has suffered an illness since birth that has made her physically weak, to the point where she can't even walk on her own. She loves idols, yet is unable to become one due to her condition. Reina decided to become an idol for Momo's sake, but has learned over time to be an idol for herself as well.

## Personality

Reina is polite, reserved, and responsible, yet has a hard time expressing emotions. She has a tendency to bottle up negative emotions until they explode, although cases of her lashing out are few and far between. Due to her appearance, she appears cold and unapproachable, but in reality, is kind and hospitable. She will happily help out any student who comes to her for guidance, however, she will always make sure never to get too close.

She has learned to respect authority without question thanks to the strict nature of her mother and grandmother. In fact, the only reason why her grandmother is allowing her to continue being a school is because she was doing it for Momo's sake. Despite having strict parents and a strict grandmother, Reina is still particularly close with her family, especially her siblings.

She is bad with technology, only really knowing how to dial a telephone and use a radio, as her family doesn't own any televisions or computers.

## Relationships

### Alyssa Komatsu

Reina is the first friend Alyssa made upon moving to Kyoto. They get along fairly well, despite limited knowledge of the other's respective native language. Reina sometimes has a difficult time keeping up with Alyssa's high energy personality, but is definitely capable of bringing her back down to Earth when the time calls for it.
