Description
In the anime Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for My Retirement, Colette is a young girl from a small mountain village within the territory of Count Bozes. She is the first person the protagonist, Mitsuha Yamano, meets upon arriving in the other world, discovering Mitsuha collapsed and unconscious in the forest and bringing her back to the village to recover. Physically, Colette is a petite child with shoulder-length silver or gray hair and blue or green eyes, typically dressed in a simple outfit suitable for rural life.
Colette has an innocent and vivacious personality, and she becomes fast friends with Mitsuha despite the initial language barrier between them, communicating through gestures and mimicking. She is remarkably strong for her size and displays quick wits unusual for a child her age. This intelligence becomes increasingly evident as the story progresses, as Colette demonstrates a prodigious aptitude for languages. She learns both Japanese and English from Mitsuha and even picks up other languages from the new world simply by spending time with foreigners who could not communicate with her.
Colette lives with her parents, a mother named Erene and a father named Tobias, to whom she appears close. Her role in the story is significant, as she is the first native of the other world to show Mitsuha kindness and helps her navigate this unfamiliar environment. During one of their outings to gather vegetables, a pack of wolves attacks them. Mitsuha saves Colette by fighting the wolves, sustaining serious injuries in the process before disappearing back to her own world. After Mitsuha returns with weapons and defeats the wolves, Colette is overjoyed to see her friend alive. When Mitsuha eventually leaves the village to travel to the royal capital, Colette is disappointed but bids her a tearful farewell, holding onto the promise that Mitsuha will return someday.
Their friendship endures despite the distance, as Mitsuha continues to visit Colette's village after settling in the capital. When Mitsuha is later granted the title of Viscountess and begins establishing her own domain, she returns to welcome Colette as a candidate retainer in the Yamano Viscounty. Colette then moves to live with Mitsuha in her mansion. Externally, she is treated as a vassal of Viscount Yamano, but she and Mitsuha address each other as friends without honorifics. Colette is physically strong for her size and possesses a remarkable capacity for learning, particularly languages and other knowledge taught by Mitsuha.
