Description
Albertina is primarily known by her pen name, Albertina II, though she is frequently called Bell or Beru-sempai by her peers. She is a third-year student at Shimoshina High School where she serves as the secretary of the student council. Her real name is China Abe.
In terms of appearance, Albertina is a young girl with blue eyes and blue hair styled into pigtails. She wears the standard schoolgirl uniform along with a red student council armband. A constant companion is a green stuffed toy named Magyorubo, which she is almost always seen carrying in her arms. She is notably flat-chested, a physical trait that contributes to certain personal insecurities.
Albertina has a multifaceted personality. While she participates in the student council's teasing of the protagonist Hime, she is rarely the one who initiates such behavior. She can become very terrifying when flustered, indicating a sharp temper that emerges when she is provoked. A significant source of this agitation is her complex about her flat chest, which leads to feelings of anger and resentment specifically towards her friend 18+, who has a very large bust. Despite these frustrations, she generally remains quiet and does not always align herself directly with the other council members on every issue.
Her primary motivation and driving force outside of student council duties is her career as a popular manga artist. She is an exceptionally prolific creator, working on multiple manga projects simultaneously across various publications, including magazines such as Comic Yuri Hime. This professional background is a core part of her identity and shapes many of her interactions within the story.
In her role in the story, Albertina acts as a close friend and artistic mentor to the main character Hime Arikawa. Of the three girls on the student council, Hime is closest to her. She uses Hime as the basis for the title character in her manga Magical Boy Hime Kiss, demonstrating how she draws inspiration from the people around her. She is happy to give Hime advice or use him as a model, and she considers him a close friend, a sentiment he reciprocates even though he remains slightly afraid of her when she is angry.
Her key relationships extend to the other student council members. She has a complicated, lifelong friendship with 18+ and Unko. Albertina and Unko were the ones who invited 18+ to join their friendship in kindergarten, and the three have been best friends ever since. While she is always there to support them, her friendship with Unko is strained by Unko's idiotic personality, which greatly annoys her. Similarly, her friendship with 18+ is tested by 18+'s perverted attitude and the jealousy Albertina feels regarding their differing body types, yet they remain good friends who are always there for each other when needed.
Regarding character development, Albertina does not undergo a dramatic transformation but her background as a successful professional adds depth to her role as a student. She holds the distinction of being a super high school-level manga artist with five simultaneous publications, a fact that underscores her exceptional talent and work ethic for someone her age. Her notable ability is her professional-grade skill in creating manga, a talent she actively applies by producing a series that is directly inspired by her real-life friend Hime.
