Reina Aharen

Description \ Bio

Reina Aharen is the female protagonist and the titular protagonist in Aharen-san wa Hakarenai and it's anime adaptation. Reina is a short teenage girl with long silver hair and deep blue eyes. She is seen most of the time to have a stoic expression even when laughing or crying. Despite that, she is capable of smiling and becoming cheerful, mostly when Raido is present. She is mostly seen in her school uniform that consists of dark blue button-up outfit over a white dress shirt, a dark navy skirt, long black tights, and brown penny loafers. Reina is a quiet and timid girl with a bad sense of gauging interpersonal distance. She is shy when talking to people she just met, to the point where her voice becomes so soft it's almost inaudible. Inversely, she often becomes too excited when interacting with people which leads her to act overtly familiar to people she just met. This coupled with her generally expressionless face has led to her being ostracized in the past which made her scared to get close to others. Due to this, Reina is incredibly appreciative to those who accept her despite her strange behaviors such as her friends and family. She often feels obliged to repay their kindness to her with whatever means she has (e.g: making them food, teaching them, etc). Due to her inability to gauge interpersonal distance, Reina is often self-conscious of the way she is viewed by her friends. She also fears being a burden to them due to her own perceived inability. Despite that, she is willing to step up when her friends need her and isn't afraid to show her appreciation to them. Reina values the friends she has made in high school greatly and has expressed her desire that she wishes for them to continue being friends long after their graduation.
