Harue (SSFF Character)

Hobby: Palmistry
Job: Voice actress
Profile: Looks sweet, but has a sharp tongue.
Default style: Lively (usually a tutu with lavender pigtails)

Taste notes:
Mainly Lively style, but it looks she'll also take Psychedelic. Buys cosplay items easily. In fact, seems to almost hunt them down. Her favourite brand appears to be Purple Moon.

Memorability: 5/5

Personal notes:
Harue has what appears to be a truly massive disposable income and a penchant for finding and buying incredibly expensive things from mannequins, and yet when she actually enters the store, she most frequently puts forth requests for whole ensembles under $200, or even under $150. (It looks as if her favourite brand is Purple Moon, so this might be where this comes from.)

I made the mistake of remembering her job as "pop idol" in a post on Miiverse... when she's really a voice actress. And yet... somehow I thought I remembered something in the game stating this, linking her to pop idols or celebrities. Hmm. It's not as if voice actresses can't be big-time celebrities, though...

Harue is a very memorable character to me due to all of the weird (and often shockingly expensive) stuff she's bought, along with her stand-out personality(?) and the bizarre divide between her in-store budget and the rest of her disposable income. Where is she pulling out these incredible sums from?? She also seems to be fond of getting repeated changes of hairstyle only to switch back to her default lavender pigtails regularly. Actually, despite running a mainly Bold and Gothic boutique for a long time, Harue has been one of my most frequent customers, not to mention my highest-paying... She kind of reminds me of Preeya because of of the variety of things she's requested and the breadth of the styles she's tried.

Harue often hangs out with Koji, although I have no idea what their relationship is actually supposed to be.

A picture of Harue from last year. She's a pop star, and appears to have an incredibly large disposable income: Here she just bought a very expensive Retro-Lively outfit I had displayed, and yet when she comes in with requests, her budget is about $150...
She actually seemed to be buying things off mannequins based on how expensive they were... It was pretty consistent over time. It's an interesting contrast.

Harue, sardonic idol girl of possibly near-infinite funds, drops by to drop $6,000 on cosplay items. Like it was nothing. Her leaving comment was that she "had the money." I'm guessing this girl has enough money to buy a small country.

  1. She randomly switches back to her default hair on her own? Huh. That's weird, I've never had any characters do that.

    1. I know... She's one of the only characters I've seen do it. I give her a new style, and then some time later it's back to the lavender pigtails.
