Movie
Description
Aoi Kiriya attends Starlight Academy as Ichigo Hoshimiya's closest friend, their bond originating at a childhood festival where Ichigo's dance ignited Aoi's passion for idols. This revelation shifted her focus from rigorous training in violin, piano, horseback riding, and calligraphy toward obsessive idol industry research, earning her the monikers "Idol Professor" and "Aoi-sensei" for her encyclopedic expertise.
She sports wavy cobalt blue hair, typically tied in a side ponytail with a light blue scrunchie, falling past her shoulders when loose. Matching blue eyes and pale skin complete her features, occasionally accentuated by glasses. As a Starlight student, she wears the standard uniform, with blue as her theme color.
Calm, bright, and highly intelligent, Aoi exhibits sharp analytical skills, unwavering determination, and meticulous planning. A perfectionist and diligent worker, she often anchors Ichigo with mature guidance yet radiates intense excitement about idols. Beneath her confidence lies a fear that she and Ichigo might not achieve shared stardom. Her preferred fashion brand is Futuring Girl.
Aoi inspired Ichigo’s Starlight Academy audition, where she scored perfectly on the idol knowledge test, topping nearly 1,000 applicants. They enrolled together as roommates. Early in their first year, Aoi won an audition to temporarily manage Mizuki Kanzaki. Later, she formed Soleil with Ichigo and Ran Shibuki after joint auditions. Initial friction with Ran—stemming from Aoi’s habit of contradicting Ran’s self-image—eased into warmth over time. Aoi also performed in the drama "Naughty Detectives" with Shion Kamiya and reached Tristar’s final three alongside Ichigo and Ran.
During Ichigo’s year-long absence in America, Aoi starred in the hit film "Naughty Inspector" as a second-year. Headmistress Orihime then chose her as Starlight’s representative for a constellation battle against Dream Academy’s Seira Otoshiro. Witnessing Seira’s unprecedented appeal and learning Orihime would resign if Starlight lost, Aoi relinquished her role upon Ichigo’s return, convinced Ichigo could secure victory.
In her third year, Aoi continued Soleil performances while mentoring other idols, later embarking on a six-month nationwide tour. She proclaims herself Ichigo’s number-one fan and maintains a tight partnership with Kī, exchanging idol intel and collaborating in events like the Partners Cup. Together, they guided Ichigo and Seira toward pivotal realizations during a WM competition.
Her name "Kiriya" (霧矢) merges "fog" and "arrow," possibly honoring Takarazuka star Hiromu Kiriya, while "Aoi" (あおい) references hollyhock and her signature blue. She stands 157 cm tall, born January 31 (Aquarius). She favors sandwiches and leeks but avoids spicy foods due to tongue sensitivity. Documented skills include flawless idol recall and elegant handwriting from calligraphy training. Her aura blends stars and snowflakes, later enhanced with colored stars. Her catchphrase "Odayaka janai wa ne" ("This isn’t ordinary!") spread among peers. She placed second in the Starlight Queen Cup (won by Otome Arisugawa) and holds the distinction of being the first idol not to perform in her debut episode.
