Personality

As a member of the main family of the Zenin Clan, it was expected that he would have the ability to inherit the technique that is passed down through generations within the clan, however, he was born without the ability to use the cursed energy[7], which prevents him from having an innate technique. Given her lack of power, she was destined to become a simple servant to the rest of her family [3]. Despite the circumstances surrounding her, she wanted to become an extremely strong person[7], so she decided to leave the clan in order to achieve her goal. Before she left, she declared that she would return again to be the next to lead the family [3]. Since she is considered a failure of the clan [13] [3], she grew up with said idea in mind and considers herself someone of 'lower class'. In order to prove everyone wrong, she tries her best and pursues the desire to become strong so that she can prove, in turn, that she is better than them [7]. During her first year at the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College, she used to be a somewhat bitter, direct, and short-tempered young woman [5]. Due to her abrupt way of acting, she had a lot of trouble opening up to other people and, when she felt that she could be accepted by others, she was too hard on herself and tried to strongly reject the kindness of those around her[13 ]. Starting in her second year, she becomes a much more passive, kind and empathetic person with the rest of her classmates [6].
