**Hanabishi Haruka** (花菱 (はなびし)  はるか?), also known by her magical girl alias **Magia Magenta** (マジアマゼンタ, *Magia Mazenta*?), is a member of Tres Magia. She is a classmate of Hiiragi Utena.

## Appearance

She has pink hair in drills and wears a pink version of the Tres Magia magical outfit.

After being corrupted by Baiser, Magenta's hair turns black near the ends. Her nails turn black as well, and her uniform turns into a tattered evening gown that nearly exposes her lower parts.

In her La Verità state, Magenta wears a fetishized nurse outfit and wields a giant syringe. Her pupils become heart-shaped, and her drill curls change sizes. Magenta's right drill becomes massive and becomes similar to its appearance during her corruption by Baiser's hands. The left drill curl, however, becomes smaller and only goes down to her shoulder. In addition, Magenta gains a black bird wing coming out from the left side of her back.

In addition, when being serious, she can be very attractive, though she seems to not be aware of it.

## Personality

Haruka is an extremely energetic, compulsive, and childish girl, always smiling and acting on her feelings. She cares a lot about Sayo and Kaoruko, admiring their strength and skill as magical girls. Overall, compared to her comrades, she is the most 'normal' magical girl in the series.

However, she is extremely naïve and gullible. She put pasties on her nipples and groin, and believed it to be the ultimate defense to Magia Baiser's stripping scissors attack, only realizing how embarrassing it was to be wearing only three pasties in public after being seen by bystanders. She also fell for blatantly obvious traps at least twice, not realizing they were traps until after said traps were set off. There are two notable traps: the first is Nero Alice's torn cat doll intentionally getting Tres Magia's attention then running into an alley and leading them into Nero Alice's dollhouse; the second is a room in Magia Baiser's dungeon with a lavish chair and virgin cocktail under a sign inviting her to rest.

Moreover, Haruka seems to lack intelligence and common sense as well. When in the park, she played in the sandbox and built an extremely tall enoki mushroom, ignoring the children who were annoyed by her behavior. During her "battle" with Nero Alice, she noticed that the Enormeeta member had the exact same behavior and made the same expressions as Korisu, but failed to make a connection between the two; however, the recognition inhibition may have prevented her from doing so.

Despite all this, Haruka is an extremely caring girl who cares about her friends and will go through any trial to protect them. When reflecting on being controlled by Baiser, she felt shame and regret over attacking Sulfur and Azul.

In her La Verità state, Magenta seems to become the "sexy nurse" stereotype.

She is currently obsessed with playing whack-a-mole.

## Abilities

**Trans-Magia** (変身 (トランスマジア) , *Toransu Majia*?, lit. "Transform") is a power that transforms Haruka into her Magia Magenta form. Haruka can perform Trans-Magia by using a transformation heart provided by Vatz.

**Recognition Inhibition** (認識阻害, *Ninshiki Sogai*?) is an ability that prevents people from recognizing a transformed magic user.

**Prehensile hair** - While corrupted by Baiser and turned into her puppet, Magenta's hair became prehensile, allowing her to use it like extra limbs. The ends in particular can act as hands, allowing her to grasp things without having to wrap her hair around them.

**Healing** - Her healing magic has recently become the strongest of the three. When she uses it the recipient feels remarkably good, with the healing even being described as orgasmic.

**Dark La Verità** - Her transformation was affected by the time she became Magia Baiser's thrall when the latter went berserk, but she retains her morality and desire to fight against the forces of evil. She becomes an incredibly potent healer via licentious acts such as breast groping, breast sucking and using her syringe to heal people through enemas. She also retains the hair manipulation she had as Baiser's thrall, though it is restricted to her right drill, and can restore the magic of her allies.

## Trivia

* Despite being named "Magenta", her costume's colour scheme is closer to red or pink than magenta.

* She has three younger sisters who are triplets named Mifuyu, Akiho and Natsuna.
* Haruka's favorite food is nametake, which is enoki mushrooms cooked in a soy sauce-based sauce.

	+ Ironically, Haruka's disliked food is kinako, which is also a soy-based food product.
* Unlike her fellow Tres Magia members, Haruka is unaffected by ASMR. **Vol 12 Ch 57**
