Description
Mint Blancmanche, third member of the Moon Angel Troupe, pilots the reconnaissance Emblem Frame GA-003 Trick Master. Sole heiress to the wealthy Blancmanche Company, her privileged yet sheltered upbringing instilled refined manners while fueling tension with her father, Darno Blancmanche. This conflict drove her to sever family ties and enlist in the military.

Her distinctive physiology features a second pair of rabbit-like ears granting innate telepathy, enabling surface thought perception. This ability initially bred distrust of outsiders, though she maintains a polite, cheerful facade that occasionally reveals cynical undertones. Physically petite at 123 cm, she has short blue hair and amber eyes. Her military attire combines a modified Angel Troupe uniform worn open over a blue dress with gloves, thigh-high stockings, and a large ribbon. Post-retirement, she favors elegant dresses and shawls, often accessorizing her ears with blue ribbons.

As the Troupe’s strategic analyst, she leverages intellect for battlefield tactics, deploying Trick Master’s remote "Fliers" for precision strikes. Paradoxically, she harbors a secret passion for wearing full-body animal costumes (kigurumi), concealed from comrades out of embarrassment. Her indulgences include artificially flavored junk food, exotic teas like Orange Pekoe, and fast food—preferences rooted in her sheltered past.

Interactions with protagonist Tact Mayers catalyze her evolution: initial leadership doubts give way to trust, culminating in her confiding familial struggles. During a mission to her homeworld, Tact intervenes when her father attempts forcible retention, facilitating partial reconciliation. This breakthrough allows her to express vulnerability and reliance on others. Later romantic feelings toward Tact spark jealousy involving comrade Karasuma Chitose, resolved through communication that strengthens their bond. Their telepathic synchronization proves vital in high-stakes missions, including piloting Unit 07 against antagonist Nefuria.

Post-military retirement, she heads the NEUE branch of the Blancmanche conglomerate, forging alliances like business collaborations that recruit Anise into Rune Angel Wing. Despite corporate duties, she supports former allies, aiding the Elsior expeditionary fleet. Her leadership extends to negotiating peace treaties and deploying family resources for galactic stability.

Her journey balances inherited legacy with self-defined purpose, transforming isolation into connection. Telepathy evolves from alienation into an empathy tool, while once-rejected wealth redirects toward humanitarian and strategic objectives.
