Description
Lilja Kurtbay is a 17-year-old third-year high school student from Finland and a member of the theatrical troupe Gingaza within the world of Stella of the Theater: World Dai Star. Her image color is Tiffany Blue, and she is the tallest among the main characters. She was scouted by Gingaza because of her striking beauty and overwhelming stage presence, and she herself is very particular about her appearance.

In terms of personality, Lilja is generally quiet and soft-spoken, creating an initial impression of cool composure. However, beneath that calm exterior, she sometimes reveals a passionate and sensual side, and she openly enjoys being looked at by others. She is comfortable showing off her body and finds pleasure in drawing attention. This paradox between her reserved demeanor and her exhibitionist tendencies makes her a distinctive character.

Lilja’s motivation is tied to her love of performance and being admired. Her sense, called the Alluring Gaze, is a special ability that affects those who meet her eyes. When she looks at someone, their spirits are lifted and their acting becomes more passionate and sharp, particularly for emotional or sensual roles. She can also use this ability to dispel a target’s low mood. This power makes her a valuable collaborator in group performances, even if she herself often remains in a supporting role.

Within the story, Lilja is a supporting character in the Sirius-centric narrative. She is a regular visitor at the Sirius bathhouse—so frequent that she keeps her own locker there—which underscores her connection to characters from the main troupe. One notable interaction involves Ramona Wolf: Lilja intently observes Ramona’s body and later suggests they go to the baths together, illustrating her comfortable attitude toward nudity and her tendency to be forward in personal space.

Lilja shows little overt character development over the course of the anime, but her consistent traits—her beauty-consciousness, her pride in her looks, and her quiet yet bold nature—remain steady. Her relationships are marked by her easygoing but sometimes intrusive friendliness, and she serves as a source of heightened emotion for other actors through her sense. Overall, Lilja Kurtbay is a poised, statuesque presence whose combination of serenity and seductive charm sets her apart in the competitive world of theater.
