CHARACTER Name: Rima Touya Canon: Vampire Knight Age: 16 Timeline: Chapter 49
Personality: Similarly to most of the night class, Rima seems to have seems to have accepted the Day Class students as a normal, albeit annoying, part of daily life. But unlike Aido or Ruka who seem to have opinions on the other students, Rima shows little (if any) interest in them at all, regardless of their endlessly enthusiastic attempts to grab her attention. In fact, she shows surprisingly little concern towards most things, for example when apprehending Zero along with a handful of others. From the start, she had seemed dubious about attacking him, asking the others if they are “really doing this” since Ichijou said not to, and afterwards shows how little she really cares about dealing with him by paying more attention to Kain’s “uncool” actions than to their target. Even so, the fact that she was there in the first place shows she does care genuinely about Kaname in her own discreet way, rather than hanging around him just because of his Pureblood status. It is later revealed that she attends the academy because she feels happy and comfortable in the place he created for them as opposed to being there because of her family’s political beliefs (pro-monarchy/Kaname).
For most of the story Rima appears calm, quiet and indifferent, not unlike her fellow model Shiki. She seems more curious than afraid when waiting for the arrival of a more powerful vampire, her face remaining blank and tone unvaried since she’s already use to being in the presence of someone “scarier”. Although her personality is quite similar to Shiki’s in some aspects, she tends to pay a little more attention to her surroundings – for example, informing him of the fact there really is a new student when he hears Ichijou murmuring about it and asks whether their friend is talking about a new book.
Despite the fact she is often reluctant to fulfil orders such as exterminating ex humans and being assigned to protect Yuuki Cross during the day, she follows Kaname’s orders without question and is able to carry them out without a fuss. While she and three others are watching over Yuuki, she doesn’t bother to hide her irritation regarding the situation, but still manages to maintain the respectful bodyguard role. And though this seems to be a result of wanting to complete the task somewhat professionally rather than actually respecting her at that point in time, she even interrupts Aidou’s rant in order to add “-sama” to Yuuki’s name. She is also seen attending the Winter Ball and dancing in a group with some day class students while wearing an expression that clearly shows a lack of enthusiasm. While sometimes compliant, she won’t pretend to be enjoying something when she isn’t.
She shows no guilt or remorse when killing vampires which were once human, viewing the task as a simply job which must be done and labelling it “no big deal”. Furthermore, she seems completely unconcerned about the presence of Level Es and the potential danger they pose, even finding the time to stop for a half serious conversation with her companion before getting on with the task at hand. Like all aristocrats at the academy, she understands the need to kill them off before they start attacking humans at random and that’s all there is to it. This indifferent outlook remains the same towards other vampires too and when another model tells the story of being followed by one that wasn’t driven by bloodlust, she simply listens in with mild interest before shrugging it off as minor problem since the girl wasn’t hurt and this sort of thing was to be expected in the current situation. However, this lack of interest towards ex human vampires and other vampires in general doesn’t seem to stem from the fact she looks down on them because the difference in their statuses; Rima is just naturally aloof.
As well as attending classes at night and hunting down ex humans during the day, she also spends time modelling with Shiki, and although she doesn’t seem to show much very enthusiasm towards the profession she takes it seriously and even scolds her friend when he doesn’t. Before meeting Shiki, she was a huge fan of his mother and wanted to follow in her footsteps, but ended up modelling rather than acting for an unknown reason (maybe modelling suits the default bored look more than acting, or modelling is just her path into acting since you have more choice once you’re famous). However, the additional activities that take place during the day when most vampires would be sleeping leave Rima tired and contribute to feelings of annoyance towards pointless things that require unnecessary effort.
Aside from the usual detached manner, she can be surprising short tempered, especially if someone she cares about it concerned in the matter. This was first triggered by Maria’s presence in Cross Academy, when she and the other members of the night class immediately became suspicious of their unexpected transfer student. Clearly unimpressed by the girl’s insolence during their first encounter, Rima doesn’t hesitate to snap at her rude interruption to a conversation with Shiki while the other model doesn’t say a word. Her responsive side is far more notable when Rido Kuran arrives at the Academy. Her close bond with Shiki allows her to immediately realise something is amiss after a brief exchange of words while the majority of other students remain oblivious to the internal change. She has no problems with speaking her mind when she has an opinion and occasionally makes sardonic comments towards her classmates e.g. describing Aidou’s passionate speech as “a little creepy” and openly telling Shiki Ichijou’s katana doesn’t suit him.
Rima encountered Shiki while working as a model long before she began attending the academy and the two are rarely seen without each other. She acts like the older sister in their relationship; worrying about him while they are apart and chiding him in situations that are both unimportant (“Just chase him” while hunting Level Es) and serious (“You should love yourself more!” when his body is taken over by Rido). She is loyal to and protective of her friends – even willing to endanger her own life by fighting against a superior Pureblood vampire and wander off into a remote forest soon after being injured to search for a friend who has gone missing.
As a random side note, she also has a liking for Pocky and cute things such as pink heart shaped bags and plushies.
