Mizunashi, Akari

水無灯里

Akari, a native of Man-Home, is a cheerful and easygoing individual whom we seldom see angry or upset, a trait she shares with her supervisor. She is best characterized as a romantic, appearing to find joy in things or events that others might consider humdrum and mundane. Akari frequently says "Hohe" or "Hahi," which serves as her abbreviated version of "wow."
Although she is not quite as skilled at rowing as Alice, nor as familiar with the city's history as Aika, her carefree and laid-back demeanor often endears her to the many people she meets. Consequently, she seems to make friends with great ease and can maintain warm conversations even with complete strangers, a fact that leads her closest friends, Aika and Alice, to label her as "mysterious." She also accidentally learned how to row backwards on the gondola during her time at Man-Home, prompting Aika to state, "Akari is almost invincible when she rows backwards" (from the anime and the manga). She frequently writes letters about her adventures on Aqua to an unnamed person back on Man-Home (revealed in the last chapter of the manga); in the anime, these letters are directed to Ai.
