Maria Akizuki

Maria is Saki’s ride-or-die and quite a striking character with her porcelain skin and fiery red hair that practically glows. She’s got a bold spirit and a knack for taking charge, often guiding the shy and gentle Mamoru with confidence. But don’t let her fierce exterior fool you—when it comes to spooky tales, she’s all wide-eyed and jumpy, showcasing her fun, softer side. In moments of danger, though, she transforms into a protector, always ready to stand by Mamoru’s side. Maria is all about that balance between strength and vulnerability, making her a unique force in their friendship.
