A ninth grade student who always seems out-of-place, Akira likes to hide in the shadows where she can feel protected from the outside world, nervous of others around her and afraid to trust nearly anyone. Living above her family's restaurant, her parents wish her to try harder in school and not skip day after day. When she does go to school, due to the fact that she is linked with a dragon she named Ein Sof, she often relives visions of falling from the sky—her constant passing out and vomiting in the middle of class makes her a serious outcast to the other students.
