Rin Yaritezawa

Character

In her second year at Naruhata Women's College, Rin Yaritezawa is the friend everyone calls when they want a party thrown, which is exactly the problem.

Appearance

Star-shaped charms hang from Rin's gold drop earrings, and pink polish covers her fingernails. Her dark brown hair is cut short and parted from the right of her forehead, above green eyes with a sharp cast.

For the mixer she picks a loose purple V-neck sweater, an orange skirt, black stockings, and heels, adding a gold bracelet and a blue teardrop pendant. A scarf and short coat cover it all on the way there.

Personality

Her skill at putting mixers together makes her look thoroughly sociable. Away from the crowd the picture darkens, since people lean on her good nature so relentlessly that she has turned bitter, particularly about the fact that none of those gatherings ever landed her a boyfriend. Unforced kindness therefore reaches her easily: Koichi Haimawari looking after her while she was drunk was enough to turn her feelings toward him.

History

Rin studies at Naruhata Women's College and appears during the Team Ups Arc of Vigilantes, debuting in Chapter 42 and reaching the anime in Episode 18. Her circle labeled her the popular one with her own network of contacts, praise she reads as hollow after realizing she had become the permanent friend of a friend, called only when somebody needs something arranged.
