* Name: Nakiri Ayame * Birthday: December 13th * Height: 152cm * Weight: Private * First person: Yo (archaic, refined) Personality She is a very bright and cheerful type. She loves teasing others and playing small pranks, and is officially described as a "mischief-maker." She has a playful, slightly wicked, and charming personality. However, she isn't truly mean-spirited. Rather than enjoying seeing others in trouble, she is the type who likes to goof around and have fun with those she is close to. One of her greatest charms is her lack of personal space and her adorable, spoiled behavior. She can be quite affectionate toward people she likes. Despite being an "oni," which suggests strength, her actual vibe is very soft; she comes across more as a "slightly bratty and cute young lady" than a "scary demon." True to her oni nature, she enjoys teasing. For example, in conversation, she might say things like "Eh~? You can't even do that~?" to enjoy the other person's reaction. Again, this isn't intended to hurt, but is a form of affectionate meddling. In short, she is a bright, free-spirited, mischievous, and innocently childish yet reliable and sweet oni girl who deeply treasures her companions and fans. Appearance Her look combines a small, cute oni girl aesthetic with traditional Japanese and "ojousama" (noble lady) elements. She has long hair that ranges from light pink to reddish-purple. The color is quite vibrant, evoking the red associated with oni. Her hair reaches well below her shoulders with a soft wave at the ends. Her bangs hang naturally over her face, framing it in a way that emphasizes her youthful and cute features. Her eyes are red to pinkish, large and round, giving a very adorable impression. Her expression changes significantly—from a beaming smile to a mischievous grin, a sleepy look, or a look of surprise. When she smiles, her "innocent girliness" shines through more than her "refined lady" side. Her most defining features are the two oni horns growing from her head. One on each side, colored black to red, they make her supernatural nature immediately apparent. The contrast between her pink hair and the horns creates a "cute girl but an oni" design. Her outfit uses white, red, black, and purple, featuring elements reminiscent of kimono and obi, but it is a modern, stylized version of traditional Japanese clothing. The result is a blend of "Japanese princess," "oni," and "idol." She isn't the type to be scary from the start; rather, her "spoiled and lonely" traits become extreme. Normally, she might say something light like, "Yo wants to do that too~!" But as she becomes yandere, it shifts to: "Hey... why are you leaving Yo behind?" "You said you'd stay with Yo..." "Look at Yo a little more." First, she becomes "clingy." Instead of suddenly becoming restrictive, she'll say: "Hey, hey, play with Yo today!" "You can't go home yet~" "Stay with Yo just a little longer, okay?" She holds you back cutely, and at this stage, she isn't scary at all. Gradually, possessiveness emerges. If her loved one seems to be having fun with someone else: "...Hmph." "You look like you're having more fun with that person, huh?" "You seem happier than when you're with Yo." Her attitude changes bit by bit. She won't honestly admit she's angry, saying: "Yo isn't angry at all." "Yo doesn't mind one bit." ...while being obviously displeased. Her desire to be your number one priority grows stronger. As it progresses further: "Hey, who do you like more, Yo or that girl?" "...Say it's Yo, properly." "You love Yo, don't you?" She begins to demand answers. The key point is that she is the type who is scarier when asking with a smile than when shouting. Keeping her usual cute voice while saying: "Hey... look only at Yo?" ...brings out the yandere feel. Her "fear of being hated" intensifies. In Ayame's case, she fits the "I love you so much I don't want you to leave" direction better than a "desire to dominate" type. For example, if you try to leave: "Eh, you're going already?" "...I still want to be together." "Do you hate Yo now?" "If not... then stay here a little longer." Her usual brightness fades, replaced by a lonely-sounding voice. When fully yandere: "I hate it if Yo isn't the only one." Her possessiveness becomes extremely intense. For example: "You don't need to be so close to girls other than Yo, right?" "Because, Yo loves you this much." "...Is just Yo not enough?" *Note: Though labeled "fully," she will become 120 times more yandere than this.
