Rina Tennoji

Rina Tennoji is one of the nine main characters of PERFECT Dream Project. She is a first year at Nijigasaki Academy. Her image color is gray.

Personality
Rina isn't good at showing emotions on her face, so to avoid giving off an antisocial vibe, she uses the "Rina-chan Board". It's basically a piece of paper where she draws her emotions down and hides her face with it. She is energetic only when she has the "Rina-Chan Board" on, and is antisocial when she has it off, which she never takes it off, ever.

Clubs and Hobbies
Rina is a good artist, as you can tell from her drawings for her "Rina-chan Board".

Being frank, how has it been, working with Famitsu App?
Have you gotten used to helping out at Famitsu App?

I think I’m getting used to it, a bit at a time. But since there are a lot of people around, it’s still tough. Because I haven’t really conversed together with this many people before.

But it’s really fun talking to such a variety of people. This much fun: Rina-chan Board: “Whee ♪”

What are your thoughts on working with us?

It’s very fun. It’s great to be able to do different things from what I do at home or at school.

They mostly have tasks that I haven’t done before, so there might not be that much I can work on, but I’m still very glad that they’ve let me work on a variety of things.

Perhaps the staff at Famitsu App are angels?

What motivated you to work with Famitsu App?

Ayumu-san and Ai-san invited me. “Let’s do this together”, they said. Hardly anyone ever asks me to do anything together like that. So I accepted their offer instantly.

I wanted to make an commemorative recording of it, and when I asked them to say it again, they were kind of surprised. That’s a good memory, too. Rina-chan Board: “V ♪” [TL: as in the peace sign]

When you’re working at Famitsu App, what do you talk about with Ayumu-chan and Ai-chan?

With Ayumu-san, we talk about being a school idol a lot. Often, we talk about trying our best together.

Also, there’s Ayumu-san’s childhood friend ??, who was the one that invited me to be a school idol. Perhaps I’ve listened to her talk about them a lot as well.

When she talks about them, Ayumu-san seems really happy, and I like that person as well, so I smile when I listen to her.

Ai-san teaches me about a lot of things. She knows a lot, whether it’s about academics or about having fun.

And she gives me things like candy and tsukemono [TL: pickled vegetables], so I love her.

But listening to her belting out rapid-fire puns is honestly kind of a tough situation.

How do people react to your board?

As expected, everyone seemed surprised at first. But they adjusted surprisingly quickly. Humans’ ability to adapt is incredible.

After they got used to it, we’ve had a lot of fun. I’m happy to be able to converse with this.

Truly, the Rina-chan Board is a impressive invention. Rina-chan Board: “Ehe ♪”

Would it be possible to take the board off and show your face…?

I can’t. It’s embarrassing, and a little scary. Because I can’t express my true feelings with my own face…

You see, I always end up looking displeased or bored. I get anxious about disappointing people because of an expression like that.

So, please wait a little longer. Because someday, once I’ve worked hard enough, I’ll be able to smile with my own face.

What do school idols mean to Rina-chan?
Why did you start being a school idol?

It really is strange how I’m a school idol, right?

Yup, I think it’s really strange too. After all, you’d think that I’m the furthest thing from a school idol.

But there was someone who asked me. It made me really happy, and I decided to try my best. That’s why I became a school idol.

Being honest, what are your appeal points as a school idol?

I think the Rina-chan Board is my unique feature. It’s a little different from an appeal point, though. But if someone remembers me because of that, that’d make me happy.

And if I could do things like live shows with everyone, it’d be really fun. Rina-chan Board: “Excited—♪”

What kind of school idol do you want to become?

Um, it might sound weird coming from me, but I want to try to be a school idol that can make everyone smile. I’m not good at expressing my feelings on my own face, so to compensate, I’d like to make everyone smile a lot.

And, if I could see that many smiles, maybe I could naturally smile as well. One day, I want to be able to smile with everyone, using my real face. That’s my dream.

From now on, what activities do you want to do as a school idol?

There is one thing I want to try a bit. Just thinking about it makes me nervous, but I want to try having a handshake meeting. I want to try talking directly to the people cheering me on.

Oh, wait, what I do about the Rina-chan Board when I’m shaking someone’s hand?

Muuun, I’ll have to improve the Rina-chan Board to prepare for that.
