Urara Shiraishi

Urara Shiraishi (白石 うらら, Shiraishi Urara), is one of the main female protagonists and a central character in the anime and manga series Yamada-kun to 7-nin no Majo (Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches). A quiet and brilliant student with a mysterious aura, Urara is the former body-switching witch and the current president of the Supernatural Studies Club. Initially isolated from her peers due to her aloof nature and intellect, her encounter with Ryu Yamada sets off a chain of supernatural events that not only changes her life but brings her closer to others.

Urara loses her witch powers following a ceremony led by Yamada, in which the abilities of the original seven witches were erased. Despite this, she continues to play a key role in solving supernatural mysteries at Suzaku High. Her deepening relationship with Yamada is a central element of the series, offering a poignant look at emotional connection, identity, and the desire to be truly seen.

Appearance in anime

Urara is a top-ranking honors student at Suzaku High, known for her exceptional academic performance and beauty. However, her reserved demeanor and lack of social engagement cause her to be misunderstood by her classmates, who often label her as unapproachable. In reality, Urara hides a sense of loneliness and detachment from those around her.

Her life begins to change when she accidentally switches bodies with Ryu Yamada after a fall on the school stairs. This incident reveals her identity as one of the Seven Witches specifically, the one with the body-switching ability activated by a kiss. As she grows closer to Yamada and the other club members, she experiences genuine friendship and affection for the first time. Eventually, she becomes an integral member and later the president of the Supernatural Studies Club, helping guide others through the mysteries of the witch powers.

Appearance

Urara is a beautiful teenage girl with long, pale blonde hair and soft gray eyes, which give her a calm, ethereal presence. She typically wears the standard Suzaku High school uniform, consisting of a blazer, skirt, and red tie. Her posture is straight and her expressions are often unreadable, which adds to her mysterious image.

As she opens up emotionally, her expressions become more varied, and she displays subtle but heartfelt smiles, especially around Yamada. Despite her popularity in terms of appearance, she remains humble and unaware of the attention she draws.

Personality

Urara is initially perceived as cold and distant due to her introverted personality and preference for solitude. In truth, she is shy, thoughtful, and emotionally guarded, often afraid of being judged or misunderstood. Her quiet nature stems from years of isolation and rejection, despite being a top student.

After meeting Yamada, Urara begins to slowly open her heart, revealing a kind, supportive, and selfless side. She becomes more confident and willing to interact with others, while still maintaining her calm and reserved manner. Though she can be blunt, her honesty is refreshing and grounded in sincerity.

Urara is also incredibly logical and composed, making her a steady presence during the chaos surrounding witch powers. Her emotional growth throughout the series is subtle but profound, highlighting the importance of vulnerability and human connection.
