I feel like I'm going insane as no one else seems to have commented on it but...

Why on earth does she glow green and no one else in the cast does, as far as I can tell this is an anime original detail and I'm just wondering if it distracts anyone else XD.

Maybe it just underlines that she became pretty, before the make over she didn't had that glow, but honestly i don't really mind.

@ApfelMyName but she did have that glow before and in flashbacks she does too. It's not that it bothers me as such more so that it's distracting that shes the only one

Yeah. Either she's radioactive or it represents the feeling that she's been poorly green-screened into the life her sister was meant to have. 🧐 I've been trying to ignore it the whole time.

@Pastel_Charlotte True, i mixed it up with the shining (after washing the hair) of the hair, not the glow.

It kept bothering me that I started thinking of it as the positive aura from teruhashi (The Disastrous Life of Saiki Kusuo).

It doesn't really bother me any, but I was wondering about it as well. There doesn't really seem to be any reason for it. But I guess it's just to show how her hair is nice and red and green go well together usually. Or it's because Kyros has green eyes and that's how he sees her or something.

But it looks odd, no doubt.

I'm so glad someone mentioned this, it's very distracting in some scenes. It would be fine if it was just a dull line or something, but it practically glows, as you say. It's odd.

i think it's an "ugly shining", you know, as she's supposed to be ugly. Like the orange hair decolouration.

i always thought it was to make the red tones in her hair stand out more by using it as a contrast. I like it cuz it makes her look different from the usual ones. although, did anyone notice that she doesn't seem to have freckles anymore? she has them in flashbacks but now she doesn't really have them

The freckles are covered by make up I guess? I don't think she was wearing any at her parents home.

That would have to be a ton of make up. It's never covered up mine like that. I don't have many and they are always more evident when I've been out in the sun. Maybe she's just not in the sun as much anymore and that's why?

Or she painted them on like Maomao lol

Probably a combination of the two reasons I guess. I'm not really familar with make up to make that call, but I've seen videos about it and to me it seemed foundation could cover up freckles potentially, but they probably also don't have our high tech make up in their world, so who knows what they are using.

But I guess she is still helping in the garden, so maybe the freckles will be back at some point.

I suspect what they were trying to do was copy the way her hair is rendered on the covers of the manga, which has a spectrum from yellow to green to blue in the highlights.


Obviously having the full spectrum would be a huge pain to animate, so for some reason they went with green, which I agree looks really awful. Yellow would have been a better choice, or just not trying to mimic that style at all.

Her hair is radioactive, that's the only explanation!
