Profile

Introduction

The self-proclaimed “Boss” (i.e. president) of Club Problem Solver 68, Aru is a 2nd year student at Gehenna Academy. She conducts her illegal business however she pleases. While Aru always puts on a cool, beauteous, and villainous facade, she has a habit of breaking character often and exposing her true personality when teased or pressured. Despite the vain and conceited persona she wears, Aru is meticulous and caring for the people she is close to. There is definitely more to her than she lets on. Will you be the one to find out what secrets she may hold close?

Personality

Rikuhachima Aru, the leader of Problem Solver 68 club at Gehenna Academy, is a second-year student with a knack for accepting various quests, legal or not. She puts on a cool, beauteous, and villainous facade but often breaks character, revealing her true caring and meticulous nature when teased or pressured. Behind her mischievous personality, Aru is a shy artist, striving for perfection. She has a thirst for knowledge and constantly seeks to expand her understanding of the criminal underworld, enhancing her problem-solving abilities. While not exceptionally intelligent, her unwavering determination and focus on her goals make up for it.

Aru persists relentlessly until her tasks are thoroughly accomplished, though she can also be goofy and prone to panicking when things don't go according to plan. Her true goal is to make Problem Solver 68 a reputable criminal organization. She constantly tries to impress Sensei on many occasions, and frequently asks them to become a member of Problem Solver 68, despite their constant refusals. She indulges to her obsessions of portraying a delinquent and idolizes the image of a criminal without comprehending the true nature of such individuals.

Appearance

She has long, straight shoulder-length pink hair with bangs that cast shadows over her eyes. This lends itself to her defining trait: the appearance of a villainess or a demon queen. This is augmented by her haughty and pretentious smile and the horns that grow out of the rear of her head. Said horns are wine red, with symmetrical golden accents.

Halo

Aru's halo has a smaller circle slightly slanted to her left. A larger disfigured circle with dashed edges and stripes on both side surrounds the first circle. The second circle resembles a crescent moon. When looking at the inner and outer circle together, her halo somewhat resembles an eye.

To the left and right sides of her halo, horizontal lines jut out sharply like spikes.

Uniform

Aru wears a red Captain's coat with golden buckles, a long-sleeved collared white and wear white gloves shirt, a red ribbon around her neck, and an office skirt with gold-strapped high heels.

Firearm

Wine Red • Admire

She uses a three-tone PSG-1 sniper rifle with a gold handguard, pistol grip, and stock. It has a black cheek rest and barrel. The rest of the receiver and most of the Hensoldt ZF riflescope is painted in maroon. Some short maroon belts wrap parts of the handguard. A gold rose decal can be seen on both sides of the receiver. The Handyman 68 insignia is stamped on right side of the cheek rest.

Etymology

• Rikuhachima means "six" or "land" (陸) depending on pronunciation, "eight" (八), and "demon" (魔), loosely creating the phrase "land of the 8th demon" but combining to form the written pun meaning "68th demon."

Trivia

• Aru's Japanese voice actress is Kondō Reina. Some of her recognizable roles include Ronie Arabel from Sword Art Online: Alicization, Hana Ichinose from Slow Start and Kazano Hiori from The Idolmaster: Shiny Colors.
• Aru regularly suffers from DQN chunibyo, given her a delusional, surface level obsession of looking like a delinquent and glorifying the image of being a bad person herself while carrying none of the heart or understanding of why bad people are how they are.
