Hina Farrow

Hina Farrow (陽菜=ファロウ, Hina Farou) is the main female protagonist of Plunderer. She was raised in isolation, living with her mother in the mountains until her mother’s sudden demise. Following her mother’s final wish, Hina embarked on a five-year journey in search of the Legendary Red Baron, a fabled warrior said to hold great power. Her quest leads her to encounters with various individuals, including Licht Bach, who becomes a key figure in her story.

Personality

Appearance in Anime

Hina is often perceived as naïve due to her sheltered upbringing. Having lived in isolation with her mother for most of her life, she trusts others easily and remains ignorant of the world’s darker realities. Her limited exposure to society also makes her slow to grasp social norms, leading to moments of awkwardness or misunderstanding in her interactions with others.

Despite her innocence, Hina is a kindhearted and resolute individual who deeply values those she trusts. She is inherently opposed to cruelty and finds it difficult to tolerate acts of violence or injustice, though she often lacks the physical strength to intervene. However, her willingness to put herself in harm’s way for the sake of others demonstrates her courage and selflessness.

Hina is also highly determined, remaining steadfast in her beliefs and goals once she sets her mind to something. However, she has a timid side, often becoming flustered easily in certain situations. She is deeply in touch with her emotions, openly crying when moved, hurt, or overwhelmed, yet she does not view her sensitivity as a weakness. Instead, her emotional openness reflects her strong moral convictions and unwavering sense of compassion.

Her feelings for Licht Bach develop into a deep and unwavering love. Before returning to the present from the past, she confessed her love by kissing Licht’s devastated past self, promising to bear his children and to never let him feel alone again if he could endure until their fated reunion 300 years later. Upon returning to the present, she openly expresses her affection, becoming increasingly bold and persistent in fulfilling her promise. Her flirtations escalate to the point where she actively tries to seduce him at every opportunity, often disregarding her surroundings. In one particularly audacious attempt, she even tries to “attack” Licht while he is on the toilet, believing it to be the moment when he is most defenseless.

Appearance

Hina is a petite and delicate young girl with short, aqua blue hair that gradually transitions into purple and then pink at the tips. Her bangs are long enough to frame her face, with a few short strands hanging on the right side. She has bright blue eyes, which complement her soft and youthful appearance.

Her outfit consists of a pink shirt paired with a white cloak that fastens at the neck, draping behind her as she moves. She also wears a black hat with a flat brim, adorned with a red ribbon and a flower decoration on the side, adding to her distinct and charming look.

Abilities and Power

Hina possesses a Count of 763, a numerical value representing her achievements and personal motivations. Initially, her Count was 441, corresponding to the hundreds of kilometers she walked in search of the Legendary Red Baron and her desire to share in her hero’s pain. In Chapter 2, her Count increased to 760 after Licht Bach won the game of “The Startheft Bout” on her behalf. Since then, her Count has risen to 763, indicating her continued growth and perseverance.

Hunting Intuition
Having spent most of her life in the mountains, Hina developed a strong sense of survival skills, which became evident during the Forest Survival trip with her class. Her instincts allow her to navigate and endure harsh environments, showcasing her resourcefulness in the wild.

Gun Proficiency
Under the guidance of Schmelman Bach, Hina was encouraged to learn how to use a handgun. Schmelman believed that wielding a firearm would be more appropriate and effective than relying on a knife in dangerous situations. However, despite her training, Hina has yet to demonstrate her gunmanship in the series.

Medical Intuition
Schmelman also advised Hina to study medical science and pursue the role of a combat medic. Though she has not been seen actively utilizing medical skills in battle, her training suggests that she possesses some level of medical knowledge, which could prove valuable in emergencies.

Relationships

Licht Bach (Rihito Sakai)
The Legendary Red Baron she was searching for and later her love interest. Though Licht often acts indifferent or teases her, he grows to care for and protect her deeply.

Sakai Tokikaze
Her biological father, a fact she remains unaware of for most of the series. Their relationship is complex, as Tokikaze’s past and actions create moral conflicts.

Nana Bassler
A maternal figure and mentor to Hina, teaching her about the world and providing guidance during her journey.

Other Red Barons
As she learns more about the war and the government’s secrets, she is drawn into the larger conflict surrounding the Red Barons, encountering both allies and enemies.

Legacy

Hina Farrow’s evolution from a wandering girl to a key figure in the battle against Alcia’s corrupt system makes her one of the most important characters in Plunderer. Her hopeful and kind nature contrasts with the cruel world she navigates, making her a beacon of light in the midst of darkness. Whether as a determined traveler, a powerful Ballot Holder, or Licht’s most trusted companion, Hina’s impact on the story is undeniable.
