Description
Lily, whose full name is Riri Hojo, is a supporting character in the anime series Hand Shakers. She serves as the student council president at the high school attended by the main protagonists, Tazuna Takatsuki and Koyori Akutagawa. Lily is a sixteen-year-old girl with long brown hair and brown eyes, standing about 1.62 meters tall. She is the older sister of Masaru Hojo.
Outwardly, Lily presents herself as a friendly and approachable figure. She is often seen helping others and uses her skill in tarot card reading to offer advice to those around her. This talent hints at a deeper, more intuitive side to her personality. She is also a Hand Shaker, paired with her younger brother Masaru. Together they form the team known as Fortune Card. Her role as a Hand Shaker is kept secret from most of her schoolmates, adding a layer of hidden complexity to her everyday life.
Lily's motivations as a Hand Shaker are tied to her relationship with Masaru. The pair enter the battles of Ziggurat, the alternate dimension where Hand Shakers fight for the chance to meet God and have a wish granted. While her specific wish is not heavily detailed, her bond with Masaru is central to her actions. There is an implied romantic interest on Lily's part toward her brother, which adds a controversial and unusual dynamic to their partnership.
Within the story, Lily first encounters Koyori when the main duo becomes separated during a trip in the city. She kindly takes Koyori to a card tournament, showing her natural generosity. She also occasionally asks Tazuna for help with various tasks, maintaining a friendly connection with the protagonists despite their opposing roles as fellow Hand Shakers. Her interactions serve to deepen the world of the series and highlight that not all Hand Shaker teams are immediately hostile.
Lily's notable abilities include her proficiency with tarot cards, which she uses both for fortune-telling in her daily life and as a thematic basis for her Nimrod power as a Hand Shaker. The exact manifestation of her combat ability is tied to the Fortune Card motif, though specific details of her powers are not extensively explored. Her partnership with Masaru is key to activating their Nimrod, and they fight together as a coordinated unit.
Development-wise, Lily remains a relatively consistent supporting character throughout the series. She does not undergo major personal transformation, but her presence reinforces the idea that Hand Shakers can be found in ordinary places and that the battles affect many different kinds of people. Her relationship with her brother and her secret life as a Hand Shaker add depth to her otherwise ordinary student council president persona.
