Yes, she is a weeb and pretends she’s Neighponese. Like her mother, she’s a candy-maker and uses her interest in Neighponese culture towards it. Her names was picked by Lyra, who’s also a bit of a weeb, but not near as much as her daughter is now.
She’s also a bit… yandere. She looks cute and sweet as sugar, but she’s actually extremely violent and gets angry really easy.
As a foal she didn’t understand her mother’s interest in these weird comic books, but she was still a tough cookie. She wanted to get married to pretty much every other foal her age and beat up every other foal her age.
