Mahiru Shiina Gallery

While publicly seen as perfect and graceful, Mahiru is initially emotionally reserved and somewhat distant due to her upbringing. As she grows closer to her neighbor, Amane Fujimiya, she reveals a more genuine side that is honest, a bit clumsy, and surprisingly direct. She is incredibly caring but often struggles to express her own feelings.

Their relationship begins platonically after Amane helps Mahiru when she is sick. In return, she starts cooking for him, and they begin sharing meals together regularly. This simple arrangement allows them to see past their public personas, leading to a slow-burning and wholesome romance built on mutual care, trust, and understanding.
