The protagonist of Shadow Star. She behaves with a maturity beyond her years, and although her academic grades are not top-tier, she possesses talent in cooking and athletics. She consistently strives to grow stronger, frequently confronting newer and more arduous challenges. While she appears cheerful and optimistic on the surface, the protagonist's inner pain traces back to her very name; in a dream during the first episode, she states, "Are you calling me? That name, Shiina... I don't like it. So next time you want to call me, do me a favor and don't use that name." Accompanied by heart-pounding music featuring the same three piano keys to underscore the theme of death, Shiina asks, "Am I going to be gone from this world?" She fears the loss of those closest to her, yet she must endure.
