Ran Shibuki  

The Beautiful Blade, 紫吹 蘭

Ran, also known as "The Beautiful Blade," is a Starlight Academy student and classmate of Ichigo and Aoi. She has been involved in entertainment since childhood and considers herself a professional. Despite being somewhat reserved, she is open and caring. Although she initially believed that Ichigo and Aoi could not succeed together as top idols, she later warmed up to them. Ran secretly monitors their relationship and knows they will eventually part ways. She was once a loner after her friend Mako dropped out of Starlight Academy, but soon became close to Ichigo and Aoi. Although she hides her emotions from others due to being called "The Beautiful Blade" and never smiling, she steps with her left foot on the runway like Mako did first. Her favorite brand is Spicy Ageha. Unlike Ichigo and Aoi, Ran is a professional idol with an aura similar to Mizuki. She was elected as Tristars third member in episode 35 of the anime.
