Ruru

Ruru is Honoka's deceased best friend and the other half of her mangaka duo, who passed away from terminal kidney disease. Ruru was a rather thin girl. She had mauve purple hair that was poofed out around her face with bangs swooped above her slightly thick eyebrows and medium brown eyes. She had freckles on her cheeks and a wide smile on her face very often. According to her parents, Ruru was usually shy around other people. When she met Honoka she opened herself up and revealed that she has a very excitable and outgoing side. When showing her feelings towards Honoka, she even comes off as very outgoing and unafraid, highly contradicting to what her parents may have thought she acted like. Even when Honoka turned her down and forced her to do the rest of the manga by herself, she kept her determined and cheery attitude until her end.
