who is the pinkest character in bandori. this IS a trick question and you WILL answer

the answer is rimi *i see people getting up from their seats* WAIT WAIT WAIT GUYS YOU NEED TO SIT BACK DOWN I NEED TO UNROLL MY PROJECTOR SCREEN

your first answer might be aya because obviously she has pink eyes and pink hair and pink outfits and her image color is pink but while she IS pink she is not the one who most EMBODIES pink.

instead she seeks to embody the ideal of idolhood, of girlhood, and pink is the most traditionally "girly" and feminine color. aya is pink through circumstance. pinkness is secondary to aya maruyama. in a vacuum, aya is extremely pink, yes. but she is not the pinkest.

so if we rule out aya who else could it be. we could go to the pink-haired himari but in all of her fashionableness she doesn't tie herself down to one color and explores a variety of different forms of aesthetic self-expression.

there's also nanami. but nanami doesn't own up to the extravagance that pink inherently embodies - she wants to be a "normal girl" and fit in. so we can rule her out as well.

then there's michelle. michelle is pink but first and foremost she is a bear and i dont know if bears even have the proper rods and cones in their eyes to see the color pink. which means michelle is RIGHT out.

therefore by process of elimination we are left with rimi. this girl is just pink plain and simple. the most direct, unfettered, unadulterated element of "pink." she is just so fucking pink. so what if she doesn't have pink hair? her SOUL is pink. and that's what matters.
