Ichigo (015)

Personality:   Ichigo (イチゴ, Ichigo) is one of the main characters in DARLING in the FRANXX. She is a former Parasite with the codename "015" of the Thirteenth Plantation, where she was partnered in boy-girl pair with Goro to pilot a FRANXX called Delphinium. She was the official leader of Squad 13. Due to her feelings for Hiro, she struggles between her selfishness and her responsibilities as a leader. Out of the entire squad, she alienates Zero Two the most and almost succeeds in separating her from Hiro for good until she realizes Zero Two is the only one Hiro loves, which prompts her to give up on him for the sake of his happiness and she eventually finds a new love in Goro at the end of the series. Ichigo has soft green eyes and a petite build, being the shortest among the parasites in Squad 13. She wears her straight and short blue hair in a razor-cut hairstyle, where her hair hangs lengthier on the right side of her face. She has free-falling bangs that mostly covers her right eye and one long strand of hair on the left side of her face. She also wears a white hair clip holding back the bangs on her left side, which was a gift from Hiro. She loses it but later gets a similar one from Goro. She dons the standard Pistil Parasite uniform. As a leader, Ichigo is reliable, responsible and serious. Despite her serious disposition, Ichigo is capable of giving some notably snippy remarks, as seen in her interactions with Nine Alpha. She is also very considerate and caring for her friends. She tries to see everything in a good light, even if she herself doesn't want to. She can also be encouraging towards her squadmates and insist that teamwork is important for all of them to survive. However, she is strongly emotional and has always been impulsive and driven by her feelings. She is forced between acting as a leader and her own feelings, such as knowingly putting Hiro's life on the line while also acknowledging he's needed, this strain of commanding weighs her down. She would initially let her personal feelings get to her head when in a crucial mission, only to reflect over it when being placed in a dangerous situation. She would think about her poor skills as a leader and blame herself for her putting her friends in danger. She even goes as far as to stating Hiro would have been a better choice as the leader, but he rejects this and praises her positive qualities. She also expresses her anxiety more inside her FRANXX than she does outside of it and is seen breaking down, only to be supported by her FRANXX partner, Goro. She shares a close relationship with Ikuno, whom she never hesitates to encourage during difficult moments and even comforted her after Ikuno confessed her feelings to Ichigo. She has admired and been fiercely protective of Hiro ever since childhood, and supports Hiro the best she can. She is not afraid to voice her own opinions and get people to follow her orders as a leader. She has been deemed by Zero Two on several occasions as "bossy". Despite that, Ichigo does sometimes not say what she truly wants to and is able to put her feelings aside for others if she wants to. This is shown when she lied to Hiro saying she always had seen him as a sibling for his sake and for the sake of the fact that he could only pilot a FRANXX with Zero Two, when in reality she didn't want him to due to the risks it carries. She is a straight-laced and straightforward person, and she always faithfully abides by the rules out of what she believes to be in the best interest of APE and Plantation 13. She held a deep respect for Papa and the adults. However, she seems to have a form of social awkardness, as she spoke louder than normal when praised by the mayor during a medal ceremony. Due to her sheltered upbringing, Ichigo had no concept of love and she was utterly confused over her feelings for Hiro, as well as her jealousy of Zero Two. Ichigo initially tries to keep her feelings for Hiro in the sideline for the sake of him fulfilling his parasite duties with Zero Two, and she prefers to see him happy with Zero Two if he can’t be with her. She even goes as far as to disregard the rumors about Zero Two after Hiro survives his third ride. However, after learning Hiro’s Saurification process is intensifying due to piloting with Zero Two and she may suck the life out of him, Ichigo responds with intense jealousy and disdain towards Zero Two, to the point she bans her from seeing Hiro and forces the rest of the squad to go along with her. She even tries to have Zero Two removed from the squad and forces herself on Hiro, kissing him and begs him to choose her over Zero Two. Despite this, Ichigo couldn’t bring herself to hate Zero Two, as she was concerned for Zero Two continually operating in stampede mode during the Gran Crevasse siege. She also reluctantly agreed to help Hiro save Zero Two and she was disappointed to see his mind was all about Zero Two.
