In the anime, Aine-chan does not appear until the series is halfway through! Λucifer has endured much to become a popular band when Sakuya finally encounters Aine after nearly running her over with his motorcycle. Aine's personality remains shy, but she is not nearly as spineless as she appears in the manga. Aine is a very lonely girl. Her parents are never home, and when they are present, they argue frequently and ignore her. At school, she has a boyfriend, but he is rude to her and merely uses her to complete his homework. She does have two female friends, but they are so carefree and obsessed with bands that she feels little connection with them. To alleviate her loneliness, Aine-chan writes a song into which she pours her emotions. After meeting Sakuya, she accidentally leaves her lyrics behind. He discovers them and becomes interested in Aine. Once recruited as Λucifer's songwriter, she works diligently to compose music for them. Her relationship with Sakuya develops MUCH more slowly.
