Rinka Aoba (青葉りんか Aoba Rinka) is one of the main characters of Kiratto Pri☆Chan. She is a 3rd year student of Kirarigaoka Middle School and is also the manager and classmate of Emo Moegi and Mirai Momoyama. She is a cool-type idol whose preferred brand is Secret Alice.
Appearance[]
Rinka is a young woman with slanted, tired emerald eyes that she wears oval half-glasses over. She has long indigo hair worn loose with a few strands curled on end. Her bangs are layered and uneven in length, with an off-center split that has one section braided behind the head and a smaller strand sticking out, while the opposite side has her bangs worn loose with a single curl sticking out near the bottom.
Personality[]
She's calm and serious, but sweet and friendly, and is seen as the model student. She is quiet, but she knows a lot about Pri☆Chan and is very supportive over her friends. At the beginning, whenever anyone mentioned that she should perform in Pri☆Chan, she gets flustered and claims to suffer from stage fright. Encouragement from Magical Ren, Mirai, and Emo, along with reconciliation with her brother allowed her to become a Pri☆Chan Idol.
