I shall show you the true essence of Inuwaka ninjutsu!

Nazuna Inuwaka is a playable character in the Arcana Heart series. She is a member of the Inuwaka ninja clan, an adept of the spirit arts and the younger sister of Akane Inuwaka.

Her Arcana is Kayatsuhime, the Arcana of Blossoms.

Bio[]

Please put description.

Appearance[]

Nazuna has apricot skin, chin length light brown hair with white tips and purple eyes.

She wears the Minoso Academy outfit (white shirt with red tie and orange skirt), a knee-length tan-colored trench coat with yellow trim that has a sea green bead on the front, dark blue calf length socks and white and dark blue uwabaki slippers.

Personality[]

Compared to her sister, Akane, Nazuna is very serious. She detests rule breakers and is incredibly opinionated, never hesitating to offer her thoughts whether others want to hear them or not. Also, she is overconfident, self-righteous, and short-tempered, but despite all of her flaws people tend to like her anyway.

She doesn't like demons such as Lilica and Clarice, most likely due to her profession in the spirit arts. However, she is shown to speak or tolerate them when necessary. She especially doesn't like those with a criminal record such as Lieselotte, Angelia and Mildred, even going as far as to accuse the Avallone sisters as them being up to something when they were staying at the Kasuga Shrine, but is shown to at least not act completely hostile toward Lieselotte as she shows more of fear and annoyance toward her.

She may not act like it, but she genuinely loves her older sister Akane, despite her annoying traits. However, she wasn't fond of her cuddling her, to the point she fought with Akane (both figuratively and literally) and claimed she hated her. However, she deeply regretted it later and became worried when Akane didn't return home, and searched for her to apologize. After some ironic encouragement by Lieselotte, she was able to reconcile with her older sister. Although Akane continues to cuddle her, she learns to tolerate and even starts to enjoy it a bit, proving her strong love her older sister.
