Hime Anyoji is a main character in Link! Like! Love Live!. She is a second-year student at Hasunosora Girls' High School who enrolled with the 104th class. She is also a member of Mira-Cra Park!, a unit under the Hasunosora Girls' High School Idol Club. Her image color is Sugar Purple.
Background
Hime is a competitive gamer who streams under the screen name "Tsumayoji". She enjoys first-person shooter games in particular and has won a student tournament with her team back in middle school. However, they disbanded after they won, as everyone had different places to go and goals to accomplish in life. She was left wondering what to do before witnessing Mira-Cra Park! for the first time. By watching their lives, she learned to proudly shout out what she loved, and now aims to show the whole world the game that she loves. To do this, she entered Hasunosora, and was accepted purely by her extracurricular merits from gaming.
Hime was raised by her older sister, who is her only known family member and her legal guardian. Her sister bought her a computer to help Hime make new friends and to "cheer her up" (likely a situation related to her parents), leading her to the world of games.
Personality
Hime is extremely passionate about gaming and school idols, especially towards Mira-Cra Park!, whom she adores. She only ever thinks about these two things, often using gaming references in regular conversations. Hime has a tendency to yell "UOOOOOOOH!" whenever she gets hyped up, but she doesn't seem to notice it. The same can be said for her speech: it's usually slower in tempo, but gets much faster when in fangirl mode. She is much more laid-back and easygoing when talking to classmates and club members outside of her unit.
She loves battles, whether in games or real life, because they show your prowess and how much practice you've put in. She likes that it shows one's mental fortitude, and says that she truly feels alive when competing. There's no other place she can feel such thrill and restlessness.
But her true passion in life is connecting with others, or as she calls it, a "multiplayer match". In games, this means that she can play with others despite being alone, and in the school idol club this refers to her being able to spend her days training and playing with her friends. What she loves the most is the feeling of connecting with those around her.
Despite being aware of everyone's weaknesses, Hime chooses not to say anything because she was afraid talking about ways on how to improve would make them quit. This made Hime worry about whether she was taking things too seriously.
Appearance
Hime has a tall, slim figure. She has waist-length pastel pink hair with a blonde ombre, arranged into a high bubble ponytail at the top, which then falls into a loose ponytail tied with a long black bow. Over her school uniform, she wears a short-hooded sweatshirt, pink with a violet lining during winter, and white with a light blue lining during summer. Hime has light blue eyes and pink nail polish on.
