Erika Yano

Erika Yano is one of the supporting characters of the SHIROBAKO anime series. She is working at Musashino Animation as a production assistant. Erika has caramel-blonde hair styled up into twin ponytails, held by two black bunny-eared wire ribbons with two pins holding her fringe. She has a mole underneath her large, curious, and grey eyes. Erika wears a woolen green cardigan over her muted blue-collared black-shouldered white t-shirt. Her grey shorts are rolled up at the rims with red drawstrings. A pair of striped stockings and purple combat boots are accessorized with her outfit. When she's not wearing this outfit, she's often seen wearing a large cardigan or a dress with stockings. Erika is a hardworking, observant and tsundere-like girl who speaks up when she needs to, keeps quiet when she needs to, and defends people when she needs to. She doesn't speak much about herself, but she isn't afraid to speak her mind. She is as informative as she is assertive and likes to keep people in their place, but she is nurturing and motherly to Aoi Miyamori.
