Anri Sonohara

Anri Sonohara (園原 杏里, Sonohara Anri)
 * A bespectacled girl who attends the same school as Mikado and Masaomi. She is rather quiet and timid, but seems very close towards Masaomi and Mikado. Sometimes she tends to enclose herself. She is very busty and cute, which makes her somehow popular, even though she feels uneasy about it.


 * Her online chat screenname is "Saika".


 * One of the thoughts that occasionally crosses Anri's mind is the fact that she has lost a "purpose" and motive in society.


 * It is stated that once Mika Harima gave her a reason to seek people and social interaction. It becomes apparent that after both Anri and Mika both used each other to better themselves; when Mika disappears-Anri becomes lost of her path.


 * She sees herself burdened by the fact that she has to rely on Mika Harima, Mikado Ryugamine, and Masaomi Kida for companionship. It is later learned that she harbored deep feelings for her ex-best friend Mika, but she cannot classify it as mutual friendship or love since she can't tell the difference.


 * She is Saika, the demon blade's 'parasite'. After episode 17 she gained control over hundreds over Saika's children created by Niekawa, effectively making her the leader of the cursed blade army. Later on, she discovers that her friend Masaomi Kida is the leader of the Yellow Scarves. When the Yellow Scarves and the Dollars clashed in episodes 20 and 21, she uses Saika's "children" to stop the Yellow Scarves from hurting the Dollars members. Eventually as seen in episode 25 she begins to show signs of having a crush on Mikado (shown when asked about the topic begins to blush as seen in Episode 25).
