Anju Emma

Description \ Bio

Anju Emma is a primary supporting character in the 86 -Eighty Six- series. Her Personal Name is Snow Witch. She was a platoon member and later platoon leader of the Eighty-Sixth Strike Package's Spearhead Squadron. She serves as their support fire and artillery provider. While she is mostly Adularia—as shown by her long silvery-blue hair—the pale blue eyes she inherited from a distant Celesta ancestor condemned her to being discriminated against as an Eighty-Six. She is 170 cm tall and wears scavenged desert camouflage fatigues like the rest of Spearhead Squadron. She later switches to the Federacy's steel-colored panzer jacket uniform. Due to her mixed Adularia and Celesta blood, she was physically abused in the concentration camps by other Eighty-Six. During a conversation with Kurena in the showers, she reveals a derogatory inscription—"Whore's daughter"—carved into her back by her abusers. She grows her hair long to hide the scars. While usually a graceful and modest girl, she reveals a ruthlessness on the battlefield comparable to any of the members of her squadron. Anju is also somewhat mischievous, conspiring with Kaie to tease Kurena about her affections for Shin. She has a tendency to hide her feelings as mentioned by Shin when she broke down in tears during the fireworks display. She also tries to hide her past abuses, growing out her hair and not revealing her body to hide her scars from the other girls in Spearhead.
