"A hero is someone who will risk everything to protect what he loves!!"
— Rena —

Rena (レナ, Rena) is a character who won a special event that gave her older twin brother Shugo Kite and herself BlackRose -type PCs.



Online[]

Appearance[]

In Legend of the Twilight, Rena appears as a chibi version of the character BlackRose. Like the legendary .hacker she has pink hair and wears a rather revealing set of pink armor, much to the shock of her brother.

In her offline appearance, Rena has a long dark brown hair in a full fringe much like her twin brother Shugo and wears casual clothing. When she was in a comatose state, she was seen wearing a patient uniform and has a dextrose on her left arm.

Personality[]

Rena is fiercely protective of her brother Shugo, and makes no effort of hiding this. She doesn't like being ignored by him, or seeing him act "unheroish", and has many ways of getting him to do what she wants, her favorite method being a quick smack upside the head. Despite their slapstick relationship, Rena and Shugo are extremely close, and she will support him in almost any situation.

Anime[]

During 2014 in The Legend of the Twilight Anime begins when Rena wins a special contest giving her an avatar modeled after the legendary .hacker BlackRose, and, entering her brother Shugo too, won an avatar modeled after Kite and where since their parents were divorced three months earlier and each sibling lives with a different parent, Rena uses The World as a way to hang out with and have fun with her brother.

Rena

Rena in the Legend of the Twilight anime.

Rena, already familiar with the game, tries to teach Shugo how to play, but in their first adventure they are attacked by a powerful Data Bug, an Armored Super Shogan sent by a group of hackers to destroy their special characters. Shugo is killed by the monster but rescued by Aura, who gives him a Twilight Bracelet. Meanwhile Rena tries to flee from the creature, cornered at the top of a tower she is rescued by Balmung who holds off the monster until Shugo reappears and defeats it with Data Drain. She later falls into a coma when killed by a data bug and is held on a mirror server, in a sleep like state until awakened by Aura.


Manga[]

Like in the anime, she wins the Avatars and uses them as a way for them to spend time with each other. However, they live together with their parents who are not divorced in the manga. At first Shugo is shocked that her avatar wears a revealing set of armor but eventually gets used to it. Later on they meet the treasure-seeking wavemaster Mireille, Ouka a powerful werewolf, and the friendly but naïve Hotaru. On their adventure she helps Shugo find Aura and she feels slightly jealous of Zefie getting all her brother's attention and ends up being called "kogal" or "ganguro" by Zefie. (Ganguro is a trendy Japanese teen that is tanned with white makeup. This appears to greatly offend Rena)
