Happy 35th Anniversary

Sonic the Hedgehog

A special someone has decided to spend this day with her Joker and her one true love–Ren’s girlfriend->fiancé->wife MAKOTO NIIJIMA aka QUEEN

==================================

Hana Niijima-Amamiya (Codename: Ace)

Hana Niijima-Amamiya is the daughter of Makoto Niijima and Ren Amamiya, born into a legacy defined by rebellion, justice, and the courage to challenge distorted hearts. Raised in a home that balanced discipline with quiet warmth, Hana grew up hearing stories not of glory, but of responsibility—the burden of seeing injustice and choosing to act anyway.

From her mother, Hana inherited a sharp intellect, an unwavering moral compass, and a natural talent for leadership. Like Makoto, she excels academically and carries herself with composed authority, often stepping into the role of mediator and strategist among her peers. But where Makoto once struggled with rigid expectations, Hana tempers that discipline with emotional openness.

From her father, she inherited deep empathy, quiet charisma, and the rare ability to truly understand others without judgment. Ren’s influence is most visible in Hana’s calm presence under pressure and her subtle, almost effortless ability to inspire loyalty. She doesn’t command respect—she earns it.

Despite her composed demeanor, Hana is not without internal conflict. She constantly wrestles with the weight of her parents’ legacy, questioning whether her actions are truly her own or simply echoes of those who came before her. This self-doubt becomes the catalyst for her awakening.

When the Metaverse resurfaces in a new form, targeting the suppressed identities of a new generation, Hana answers the call—not as a successor, but as something new.

She becomes Ace, leader of the Children of the Thieves.

Personality

Hana is thoughtful, observant, and deeply compassionate. She has a habit of listening more than she speaks, carefully analyzing situations before acting. Unlike more impulsive leaders, Hana believes in understanding every perspective before making a decision, often acting as the emotional anchor of her team.

However, her greatest strength—her empathy—can also be her weakness. Hana struggles with placing others’ needs above her own, sometimes carrying burdens alone to protect her friends. Over time, she learns that true leadership means trusting others to share that weight.

She values:

• Justice without cruelty

• Strength guided by compassion

• Unity through understanding

In battle, she is calm and decisive, issuing commands with precision. Outside of it, she is warm, approachable, and quietly humorous, often surprising her team with dry wit or unexpected sarcasm.

Backstory

Hana grew up aware that her parents were once part of something extraordinary, though the full truth was hidden from her for years. Makoto raised her with structure and discipline, encouraging academic excellence and civic responsibility, while Ren fostered creativity and emotional intelligence.

As a teenager, Hana begins to notice cracks in society—people losing their sense of self, conforming to unseen pressures, and abandoning their individuality. This phenomenon escalates into a crisis tied to a new distortion within the Metaverse, one that doesn’t just corrupt desires, but erases identity.

Her awakening occurs when she is forced to confront her own fear: that she exists only as “the daughter of legends.”

In rejecting that fear, she claims her own identity—and her Persona answers.

Persona: Aoife

Hana’s Persona, Aoife, is based on the fierce warrior princess of Irish mythology, known for her strength, independence, and tragic depth. Aoife embodies both power and emotional complexity—mirroring Hana’s balance of compassion and resolve.

Aoife appears as a regal warrior clad in Celtic armor, adorned with intricate knotwork patterns that glow with ethereal energy. She wields a long, elegant spear and a radiant shield, symbolizing both offense and protection.

Her voice carries a commanding yet melodic Irish accent, reflecting both nobility and ferocity.

Abilities and Themes:

• Specializes in Bless and Wind-type skills

• Excels in support abilities that enhance allies’ strength and resilience

• Unique skill: “Gaelic Oath” — boosts party defense and heals based on emotional bonds

• Ultimate skill: “Ríoghacht’s Valor” — a powerful multi-target attack that scales with team synergy

Aoife represents Hana’s core belief: true strength lies not just in fighting, but in protecting others without losing oneself.

Role as “Ace”

As Ace, Hana leads the Children of the Thieves, a new generation navigating a world where identity itself is under threat. Unlike the Phantom Thieves, who stole corrupted desires, Hana’s group restores what has been lost—helping people reclaim who they truly are.

Her leadership style blends Makoto’s tactical brilliance with Ren’s intuitive guidance. She doesn’t just lead from the front—she walks beside her team, ensuring no one feels alone.

Where Joker was a wildcard, Ace is a constant.

Where others ignite rebellion, Hana sustains it.

Voice Actress

Hana is voiced in English by Jeannie Tirado, whose performance captures both Hana’s composed intelligence and emotional depth. As Aoife, Tirado adopts a refined Irish accent, delivering lines with a blend of regal authority and warrior intensity, emphasizing the mythological gravitas of Hana’s Persona.

Legacy

Hana Niijima-Amamiya is not a copy of her parents—she is their evolution.

She stands not in their shadow, but at the forefront of a new era, proving that rebellion is not just about defiance…
