Aya Kokudo

Aya is a Miko to the Sentinels. As a miko, she is forbidden to interact with ordinary civilians, and even contact with her family is limited. She has lived under strict miko training by the Taisha from an early age, and by the series' beginning, she has already gone through a considerable amount of training Aya is a pale-skinned pre-teen slightly below average height. She has gray eyes and back length tan hair. Although she is a first-year middle-schooler, she is noted to look much younger, and Mebuki initially mistook her for an elementary school student. Aya is extremely kind and treats the Sentinels all with the same treatment. When she speaks, it is always in earnest. Aya states she feels regret just watching the Sentinels come back bleeding and with injuries. She does anything to be able to help the Sentinels. Despite knowing the truth about the state of the world and losing contact with her family at a very young age, she never lost her gentle spirit and genuinely trusts in the Shinju.
