Mai Otome, character review: Arika Yumemiya

Filed under: Mai Otome, My Otome — adoru @ 3:02 pm

Arika Yumemiya is the first person we see in Mai Otome, and probably the series' main hero as well. We don't know much about her upbringing; her family situation is one of the mysteries of Mai Otome. All we know is that she grew up in Galeria, a rather remote place, not knowing much about the world at large before she came to Windbloom to enroll at Garderobe, the famous School of Otome.
