My favorite Aqours girl is Sakurauchi Riko. At first I was only appealed by her appearance, then her voice. And, after discovering her personality I started liking her even more. For example, I really like how she seems like a really calm and serious person at first, but she's actually not that calm or serious like how she was freaking out when Chika almost discovered her "secret" love of those "unusual" mangas. I also really like how caring she is, like when she had to decide between the piano thing or the group and was prioritizing the group instead.

Her many weird faces are also pretty funny and made her character as someone not too serious. But, as displayed by some of her remarks and reactions, she still has a serious side and seems to be one of the most normal person of the group. Which is not a bad thing since it makes her stand out in a different way. She might not think much of herself but it's also one of the thing that makes me want to cheer for her.

And, even if most people would mostly like her for her voice or her seiyuu, I try to balance that by liking everything about this character.

She might be a fictional character but she was made alive by some artists, her seiyuu and the one who wrote the story for the franchise. That's why, even if she doesn't live in the real world, as long as those who worked to make her exist continue to do so, she will still live in the fictional world and I will continue to like her as a character as long as she exists. People might think of her as pretty bland but it's probably because of how normal she seems compared to the others, but if they tried to pay more attention to her personality and the way she behaves, they would probably discover a lot of her qualities, like those said by myself. Which is why I hope that she will be able to display more of her qualities in the second season.

I apologize if this seems a little too long but I'm not particularly good with words so I tried to explain and describe as much as I could.
