*Magical Girl Hana*

## Abilities

### Magic

**Magical Girl Magic** *(魔法少女の魔法 Mahō Shōjo no Mahō, lit. Magic of the Magical Girl)*

### Power Level

[Sorcerer-class]

**Tsutsukakushi Hana** *(筒隠花 Tsutsukakushi Hana)* is a Right Head Member of CERBERUS and one of the SAILOR Magical Girls Club. She is one of two Right Head Members that frequently visits Academy City either to be with Eiichiro or to fulfill their duties as members of CERBERUS, the other being Kihara Nana. She got involved with CERBERUS when SAILOR was targeted for their insane magical power.

Due to her town being on top of a ley line, her area is more saturated with magical energy in a similar manner to how the Eleven Schools of Wizardry all are built atop of the World's Ley Lines for more magical energy. As such, she and the rest of SAILOR have extremely high mana.

## Personality

Hana has shown to be very timid, clumsy, immature and very emotional. She's prone to tearing up and has a hard time taking care of herself, often relying on others to take care of her. She has also shown to have really bad grades in school, and cannot seem to grasp the fundamentals of different subjets. Initially, she has also been shown to be very cowardly and often runs away in a fight. Her many negative traits are the reason why not many people really respect her, it doesn't help that she admires the magical girl anime genre. The only ones who shared her passion and truly understood her were the people at SAILOR.

Despite all of her negative qualities, she can be very courageous when the situation calls for it. As shown when she protected her classmates at her middle school despite them mocking her for "pretending" to be a magical girl even in school. She is also very friendly, kind and caring towards those she consider real friends. She doesn't like it when others mock her friends, and would protect her friends even when afraid.

After her encounter with CERBERUS, she matures and her qualities as a magical girl begin to blossom. She would start facing serious problems with a strong determination rather then run away in fear. She would even start displaying a better judgement that usually ends with successful results. Most of her friends in both SAILOR and CERBERUS have come to acknowledge how reliable Hana really is when she's fully serious, even though they still consider her useless most of the time.

## Appearance

She wears many casual outfits but the more recognizable ones are her regular school uniform, summer school uniform and her pink Magical Girl outfit which consists of a pink dress resembling a maid's outfit, adorned with countless gems. She wears high-knee socks and shoes akin to the ones used by ballerina dancers.

Hana is very short, around the 130s, giving her the appearance of a little girl who just started middle school. She has a round heart-shaped puffy cheeked face, bluish eyes and a bright neon pink hair that is usually kept in twin tails. When not in magical girl mode, she usually ties her hair with a pink ribbon. She is still a developing girl so she isn't the most voluptuous girl in CERBERUS or SAILOR.

## Powers and Abilities

The main focus of Hana's prowess as a magical girl is her magical stick, Magical Ruby. A Spiritual Item she created that has the structure of a magical grimoire. Creating an item that has the structure of a Grimoire by itself is a feat that not just any magician can accomplish, requiring someone to be on a sorcerer-class level to be able to convert their magical energy into a Grimoire Manuscript. Leading Alyssha to suspect that Hana is a first-class prodigy in the art of magic and a sorceress-class magician.

Being from a town in which the civilians are exposed to vast quantities of magical power from the Ley Lines, she has an immeasurable amount of magical power within her along with the rest of SAILOR. Even then it was mentioned that because her house is directly above the Ley Line, she has far more magical power than the other magical girls at SAILOR. It's this immeasurable amount of magical power that made her the prime target of magician terrorists.

### "Magical Girl" Magic

With the help of the magicians at CERBERUS, Hana was able to control the output of her magical energy and was also taught the proper fundamentals of magic. Despite that she prefers the magical system provided by the Magical Girl Anime Genre and developed her own magical style based on the Magical Girl Troupe. From simple magical beams to instant spells by writing magical formulas with the help of Eiichiro and integrate them into Magical Ruby. Although the term isn't official, everyone else at CERBERUS coined the term **Magical Girl Magic** *(魔法少女の魔法 Mahō Shōjo no Mahō, lit. Magic of the Magical Girl)*. Despite being called a magic style, it's described as only the manipulation of magical energy for attacking.

* **Sailor Beam** *(セーラービーム Sērā Bīmu, lit. Magical Beam)*: It is the most basic and first magic spell that Hana has used as a Magical Girl. Using Magical Ruby, Hana is able to concentrate any amount of mana into the point of Magical Ruby and fire it as a beam of magical energy. With enough concentration, she is also able to absorb ambient magical energy from the air and increase the strength of the magical beam. The Sailor Beam can also be shaped and be concentrated even further, allowing for more variety of attacks and technique combos in a combat situation. The Sailor Beam is her most used and most reliable magical attack.
	+ **Beautifying Sailor Blade** *(美少女戦士セーラーブレイド Bishōjo Senshi Sērā Bureido, lit. Beautiful Magic Sword)*: The Beautifying Sailor Blade is simply put, the Sailor Beam being condensed and shaped into a blade. The collected magical energy is still stored on the tip of Magical Ruby. However instead of firing the beam, the Magical Energy is shaped into a blade. The Sailor Blade can extend itself up to 13 km (8.1 miles) at 500 times the speed of sound: exactly 171,500 meters (106.6 miles) per second in order to arrive at its full length in under 0.08 seconds. The magical energy blade can also retract to its normal size at the same rate.
	+ **Glistening Sailor Bullets** *(きらめくセーラー弾 Kirameku Sērā-dan, lit. Great Magic Bullets)*: The Glistening Sailor Bullets is as explained in the name, magical energy gathered and shaped into small projectiles that can be fired at any range, power, and speed. Normally, magical energy is concentrated on the tip and is condensed into a ball at which can be fired while still keeping the shape of a ball. Hana can also charge multiple magical energy bullets around the tip of Magical Ruby simultaneously before firing a barrage of them at her opponent. While firing, Hana can adjust her aim to redirect the attack.
* **Seven Rings that Cover the Fiery Heavens** *(熾天覆う七つの円環 Shiten Ou Nanatsu no Enkan, lit. Seven Rings of Heaven)*: It's a seven layered shield made from magical energy formed at the tip of Magical Ruby. Each layer has the defensive power of a fortress wall, and Eiichiro cannot personally recall any thrown lance that would be capable of penetrating even the first layer. It is necessary for Hana to provide constant magical energy to form the shield. The Shield can also be used in different ways such as a barrier or an armor that can be casted over herself or others. With Eiichiro's magic power, the shield's effect extends beyond just shielding.
	+ **Layer of the Shielded Damsel** *(シールドされた乙女の層 Shīrudo Sa Reta Otome no Sō, lit. Shield of the Distressed Damsel)*: The Layer of the Shielded Damsel is a thin layer of magical energy that covers Hana's entire body. The thin layer of magical energy is immune against low-tier magical attacks and can negate magical spells of the low-tier category. However it's immunity lowers down to merely resistance when in contact with mid-tier magic spells. It then becomes completely useless under high-tier magical spells. It is a passive spell that is put up immediately when in "Magical Girl Mode".
	+ **Declaration of the Fortress Wall** *(要塞の壁の宣言 Yōsai no Kabe no Sengen, lit. Will of the Iron Wall)*: The Declaration of the Fortress Wall is a gargantuan sized version of the shield, capable of shielding an entire town from a mid-tier attack. However the strength of the barrier is the strength of the will of the caster, namely Hana. So long as she has the willpower and ambition to protect those that she cares for, the barrier will not let up and may even be indestructible. Only a few people can bypass the barrier: Imagine Breaker and the entities inside it, Magic Gods, Eve, Kihara Eiichiro and to a limited degree other sorcerer-class magicians.

## Items and Equipment

### Magical Ruby

**Magical Ruby** *(マジカルルビー Majikaru Rubī, lit. Magic Ruby)* is her magical girl stick and a spiritual item created by Hana to complete her cosplay of her magical girl costume. It is a spiritual item that was creating using Idol Theory in regards to the Magical Girl Anime Genre. In a combat situation it allows Hana to manipulate the immeasurable magical energy within and assist her by either acting as medium to fire energy blasts or reinforce physical parameters. She can also condense mana onto the tip of the wand to create a blade durable enough to clash with the Spear of Longinus.

Outside of combat, Magical Ruby can transform into a wireless communication device complete with live video chat. It can record and project videos like a camera and when not being wielded, it shrinks into a badge like object that she usually puts inside her pocket.

In hopes of imitating the magical girl transformations she see on TV, she stores her cosplay inside Magical Ruby's storage dimension. To put on the magical girl cosplay, she shouts "Sailor!!" and Magical Ruby will automatically release Hana's magical girl costume and puts it on her by enshrouding her body in a bright pink sparkling light. The other magicians in CERBERUS described her process of putting on a costume in such a 'stereotypical magical fluffy way" is too time-consuming and very unnecessary.

Alyssha stated that Magical Ruby is a form of Magical Grimoire, and true enough a grimoire doesn't have to be in the shape of a book, for example: Aztec grimoires being written on animal skins and in stone tablets. Oriana Thomson has also written up a form of disposable grimoires comprising flashcards, which allows her to use many different kinds of magic. The structure of Magical Ruby shares the characteristics of a grimoire in that a structure of a grimoire is compared to that of a Magic Circle, with how a magic circle written with words can end up having 2 or 3 additional lines surrounding the original circle, like sentences on a page. This essentially means that as long as a spell is written into Magical Ruby, it can allow Hana or another user for spell casting without needing any prerequisites or any form of time consuming rituals, chants or ceremonies.

## Trivia

Having been inspired from the Magical Girl Trope, Hana's magic is inspired from characters like Usagi Tsukino from *Sailor Moon* or Illyasveil von Einzbern from *Fate/Kaleid Illya Prisma*. Hana's magical stick was partially based on Illya's Kaleidostick, Magical Ruby.
