Irene & Brigida

Character Design by

Meguru Hinomoto

Italian sisters of the earth who love Japanese culture.

They are the signature sisters of a teahouse (cafe) near the rowhouse.

By day, they are in disguise and are actually members of the Shinobi Dan, gathering information about the town for the purpose of peace.

The older sister, Irene, despite her cool exterior, loves pink and has an eye for all things kawaii.

Her younger sister, Brigida, has a cute appearance but is very clever.

They often take care of Takeru, who lives nearby.

Creator message

Meguru Hinomoto

I love Japanese clothes and Japanese sewing, and sometimes wear kimonos and yukatas.

The ramie and spinning wheel for making hemp thread that I saw in Miyako Island, my grandmother's sewing scissors at my parents' house, the hand-woven fabrics and loom in my high school textile room, the elegant mizuhiki on the Japanese buttons and kanejaku.

I tried to incorporate as much Japanese as possible into the fantasy elements with which I am not usually familiar.
