Aika Fuwa

Aika Fuwa is one of the main protagonist from the Zetsuen no Tempest anime and manga.

Aika was killed along with her parents one year before the start of the series; in the anime adaptation, it was stated that only Aika was killed, where it was implied that Aika's mother and Mahiro Fuwa's father had either lived or died by some other means.

Aika was the adoptive sister of Mahiro and the girlfriend of Yoshino Takigawa, in which was kept secret. Despite being already dead, both are still far from overcoming her loss, with Mahiro determined to avenge her at all costs and Yoshino still claiming he has a lover. It is later revealed that she is the Magician of Exodus and, instead of being murdered, she committed suicide; the manga had also elaborated that she also killed her parents to ensure that that they won't stop Mahiro from finding Aika's supposed murderer.

Appearance
Aika had back-length light brown hair with two thick square long strands going over each side of her shoulders, square bangs and purple eyes.

Aika was considered to have a lovely complexion as told to Hakaze Kusaribe by Yoshino Takigawa.

Personality
As described by both Mahiro Fuwa and Yoshino Takigawa, Aika had a "bad personality" due to her cold and calculating personality. During her encounter with Hakaze Kusaribe, Aika mentions it herself that she does not make friends easily. Her classmates were quickly intimidated by Aika's presence because she was the Magician of Exodus. She knew too much about the world which distanced her from her peers.

However, Aika was a caring person to those she loved, particularly Yoshino and Mahiro. She chose to commit suicide, and went as far as to kill her own parents, in the end so that fate would be linear and Yoshino and Mahiro would not live in a world that the Tree of Beginnings determined for them.

She was shown to be extreme intelligent and insightful. Aika also had a penchant for quoting Shakespeare, particularly Hamlet and The Tempest. There also seem to be times where she can be dramatically eccentric as she declared herself to be the detective, victim, and murderer of the Mahiro's family murder case.

Abilities
As the Mage of Exodus, Aik had a lot of power stemming from the Tree of Exodus. In her battle with Hakaze Kusaribe, it is revealed that the more Hakaze uses the power of the Tree of Genesis, the more Aika can use her power in response. As a the Mage of Exodus, she is not required to make an offering as with other magicians. This allows her to overcome Hakaze's power in a duel.
