Daia Nijinosaki (虹ノ咲 だいあ Nijinosaki Daia) is one of the main characters of the second season of Kiratto Pri☆Chan. She is Miracle☆Kiratts's classmate, and she sits behind Mirai Momoyama. She is a pop-type idol whose preferred brand is Milky Rainbow.
Appearance[]
Daia has fair skin and rounded, downward cast eyes of cyan blue and diamond shaped pupils. She has very long thigh-length, straightened auburn hair that is worn loose with very long bangs covering her face, barely exposing part of one eye. Her forelocks are chest-length, and she has a straightened cowlick.
As of episode 90, she wears her hairstyle similar to that of Daia's. She still covers her right eye with her bang, which has a small lock of hair sticking out.
When performing as an idol, she takes on Daia's original appearance.
Personality[]
She is a quiet and reserved girl who keeps to herself. She has low self-esteem, as expressed she doubted her ability to become a PriChan idol. For many episodes, she struggled to build up enough confidence to do what she wanted. After finally debuting on her own, she has become more open and confident. She used to be heavily reliant on Daia for public-related activities involving the Jewel Auditions but has since then become more independent. Instead of hiding away, she wants to give new things a try, spreading her horizons to the point of traveling abroad to experience what the world has to offer.
Relationships[]
Daia[]
Her teammate in W Daia. They are very close to each other as Daia was the first one outside her family to call her by her first name and was the first to know that Daia longed to be a PriChan idol.
Mirai Momoyama[]
As their time together progressed, Daia became closer to Mirai, as shown when Daia allows Mirai to call her by her first name rather than her last name. She greatly admires Mirai's enthusiasm, confidence, and bright aura, which in turn, encourages Daia to be more confident.
Emo Moegi & Rinka Aoba[]
She generally likes to spend her time with them along with Mirai.
Etymology[]
Nijinosaki (虹ノ咲) - Niji (虹) means "rainbow", No (ノ) may indicate possession, and Saki (咲) means "bloom". Altogether, it means "rainbow's bloom" or "bloom of the rainbow". This could be a reference to how Daia has "bloomed" as a person throughout the progression of Season 2.
Daia (だいあ) can be interpreted as "Dia", which is short for "Diamond".
