Smile
Raina comes off as a normal teenager, with some friends here and there. She's very sensitive, as shown during her high school year, when Nicole and Karin pull off her skirt in front of the whole courtyard. She can come off as snobby, bratty, and temperamental, but she has a kind heart. Although sometimes blinded by selfishness, she goes to many limits to protect those she cares for.

Appearance
Raina has long brown hair that she usually has tied up in a ponytail. She doesn't favor skirts but wears them often. She can be seen with braces throughout Smile.
