The Pet Girl of Sakura-so: Shiina Mashiro

Shiina Mashiro is the heroine of the light novel "The Pet Girl of Sakura-so" and its derivative works. She is gentle, airheaded, and extremely dependent, completely unable to take care of herself. Even her underwear requires Kanda Sorata to choose. She loves Baumkuchen and pineapple bread but has no concept of paying, which Kuuta often tries to tempt her. She was born into an artistic family; her parents worked abroad in art-related fields. She studied painting in her grandfather's studio from a young age and is a world-class genius artist. She once shook hands and took photos with the British Prime Minister during her tenure, but her dream was to become a manga artist. Her return to Japan was precisely for this purpose. She often immersed herself in the world of manga, neglecting her surroundings when drawing seriously, and frequently curled up under the desk to fall asleep from exhaustion. Her appearance features fair skin, slightly mature phoenix eyes, and her gait resembles a Iriomote lynx. Her slender waist makes her chest appear fuller than her actual figures. Academically, she scored zero in all subjects except art (because she felt it didn't help with drawing), but thanks to her drawing-related memory, she could memorize all the answers for make-up exams and ultimately scored full marks on all exams. She is Chihiro Sengoku Cousin's cousin. After transferring from the UK to Japan, her cousin asked Sorata Kanda to meet her at the station. Afterwards, she lived at Sakura Manor with Sorata Kanda, Misaki Kamiigusa, Jin Mitaka, and Ryunosuke Akasaka, and even regarded Sorata, who cared for her, as her owner. At school, she belongs to the art department. Her outstanding artistic talent makes most of the class hesitant to approach her, except for her classmate Shiho Fukatani; While in her grandfather's studio in England, more than thirty children from her class struggled painfully because of her abilities and eventually left, leaving only Rita Einzworth, who grew up and painted with her. To Mashiro, Rita was her favorite friend. Rita once had her own dream of painting shattered, hated Mashiro, and believed she stopped painting because of his presence. Later, Rita was able to let go and continued to love Mashiro and painting. Additionally, she and Nanami Aoyama both like Sorata. They are both friends and rivals in love, sometimes jealous of each other. After Nanami moved into Sakura-so, she took care of Mashiro for a while. With her help, Mashiro gradually learned to handle some of her own affairs. After Nanami's failure at the press conference, Mashiro felt guilty and stayed by her side when she was ill. Her voice actress is Ai Kayano, who is 162cm tall, weighs 45kg, and has measurements of 79/55/78cm.
