Rui Harashima 羽良嶋累

She is the editor at *Monthly Shojo Marmalade* in charge of the manga artist Nonko Arahabaki.

She has a serious personality and is frequently exasperated by Nonko’s heavy drinking and her tendency to only find the motivation to work when a deadline is looming.

At the same time, she is a devoted fan who has kept a scrapbook of Nonko’s work since her days of drawing one-shots; the bond between them is so strong that they once passionately clashed over their feelings when she was nearly removed from the assignment due to editorial department circumstances.
