Ferrari, Akira E.

晃・E・フェラーリ

Akira is one of Neo Venezia's three Water Fairies and serves as Aika's supervisor at the Himeya company. She is nicknamed the Demon Instructor due to her strict training regimen and her loud, brusque personality. She is particularly harsh with Aika, even though the girl is her employers' heir; however, she does so because she genuinely believes there is potential in her. Consequently, she is the only Himeya employee who does not fawn over Aika, although Aika admits that it is only because of Akira's strictness (and honesty) that she has been able to become a good undine. As a prima undine, she is known as "Crimson Rose" (真紅の薔薇).
Akira is renowned for her conversational skills and her intimate knowledge of the sights in Neo Venezia. She has many admirers among her customers, though surprisingly, there are more female admirers than male ones (which seems to bother her slightly, as she considers herself very feminine).
Akira and Alicia's relationship mirrors that of Akari and Aika, although Alicia is far more teasing when Akira is around. This is not entirely surprising, as Akira and Alicia are childhood friends. Nevertheless, Akira is still stung by the fact that Alicia became a Prima earlier than she did, despite Alicia initially becoming an undine just to tag along with her.
