:Personality:

Due to Allette’s upbringing, she is unable to properly empathize or socialize with other human beings as she often makes blunt remarks without regard to other people’s feelings but would never use foul language. Physical affection is something she finds to be incredibly foreign, and it takes her time to accept physical affection from certain people but from strangers, she will balk at it every time and even with loved ones whom she can expect hugging and kissing from, she will often find herself unprepared to accept it at times and asks them to try again. Allette is also scared of interacting with other people, especially when it comes to talking with crowds but when it comes to situations where she must demonstrate her knowledge or basketball skills, she’s surprisingly bold and eloquent. Aside from possessing wisdom and knowledge of many topics, she is also talented in singing, ballet dancing, and swimming and knows many languages: Mandarin, English, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, Vietnamese. She also has sophisticated taste in clothing as evidenced by her simple yet elegant outfits which she enjoys wearing as she finds them appealing but also finds them as a form of psychological protection in enhancing her confidence. She also doesn’t like doing nothing as being idle is boring to her and she would rather keep herself entertained by reading a book, humming, or singing, playing basketball, doing ballet, swimming, watching T.V., going on the computer, drawing, or even do paperwork as a last resort.

Relationships

:Family:

Phong Shiratori and Blanche Allard (deceased) — parents, unknown relatives in Vietnam, Youta Hidaka (husband)

Her father whom she inherited Swan Eyes and her white hair from and shares a great deal of intelligence with her. From the moment she was born, he loved her dearly as he thought of her birth as love in its purest form and thought of her as his heart. However, as he was the product of a Japanese father and a Vietnamese mother, he grew up in a culture where the father was expected to be the moneymaker and the mother was expected to rear the child, him being busy with work enabled Blanche to isolate Allette in a mansion and raise her the way she wanted, focusing on her academics.

After Phong was able to take some time off to himself while his wife was off on a long business trip, he started building a bond with his child and that was when he noticed that his child was like a doll and so he tried to take back control over his own child. Allette was initially too afraid to leave her mini mansion, but he reassured her that he would take responsibility if her mother got angry and that he would be there by her side. He took her out and taught her basketball so that she could grow to be a little taller than her full height would allow her and so she could “fly” and he taught her to swim. That moment made her love her father and develop a love of basketball and swimming. She calls him “Papa”. Phong convinced his wife to let Allette attend junior high school using the argument that her mind wouldn’t truly grow if she kept their daughter at home. Allette was afraid of the idea of attending junior high as she had rarely stepped foot in the outside world since she was little, but Phong told her that it was important for her to be part of the world outside and not just learn about it as well as to learn about other humans.

He also told her to join the basketball team since basketball was meant to be a team sport and that she could find those who could understand her, befriend her, and share a love of basketball. She joined the basketball team like her father advised her to and became a starter and a point guard for the basketball team. Phong eventually caught onto the fact that his wife was abusive, divorced her, and started a custody battle over her and since there was substantial evidence to show the abuse, Phong won the custody battle. To remove his wife’s influence over Allette, he decided to relocate his daughter to Tokyo, Japan after some time. Phong had more relatives in Vietnam, but he didn’t want his child near his maternal family for fear of exposing their location. He registered Allette under the name “Tsubasa” so that she would have Japanese citizenship for their fresh start in Japan. Phong suspected Blanche’s unwanted visits were happening in Japan because Allette would always look terrified after they happened and hired a detective to stick close to his daughter.

Even though he couldn’t be there by her side, he always tried to call Allette when Édouard Sergeant, her butler, let her know that she wished to talk to him. He does try to take some days off not only for his mental health but to spend it with his daughter. He also took a day off after Allette was rescued to play basketball with her and her lover. He was admittedly sad that his daughter was being taken away by another man but accepted Kujaku because it was clear to him that he truly loved Allette and would protect her when he wasn’t around. Allette said to her mother that she will live on as her father’s heart, showing that despite her father not actively being present in her life at all times, she valued the bond she had with her father.

​

Her mother who she inherited her straight, white hair with frontal fringe and square edges from but whereas Allette has short sidelocks, her mother’s sidelocks are long. Due to Blanche having a stepmother of Asian descent who pushed her to be the best but always fell short of her expectations, she despises people of Asian descent but felt that she needed to wield a person with Asian genes to have high intelligence but have her looks which is why she developed some form of twisted love towards her daughter, thinking of her as her “other self” but also calling her a “monster” as in her mind, Allette is a dangerous combination of brains and beauty but fell short in her expectations because her daughter is not full European. She wanted to utilize Allette’s intelligence to eventually swallow Shiratori Style as Allette was the heiress to the company and have her child eventually monopolize other couture fashion companies.

​

Because Phong was busy with work and he grew up in a culture where the mother was expected to rear the child, this enabled Blanche to isolate Allette in a mansion and raise her the way she wanted, focusing on her academics. She calls her mother “Mère”. Blanche read her fairy tales every night and this helped Allette to learn how to read books on her own and so she taught herself to read. When Allette mastered singing and ballet, her mother sent her instructors away. While it seemed, her mother was impressed every time, she learned something new but after a few times of being impressed, she realized that her mother would never truly love her because she was a monster. Blanche suffers from narcissistic personality disorder. Blanche decided to enroll Allette in a prestigious all-girls’ academy known as L’Academie pour les filles royale des Jardins so that she wouldn’t be affected by the influence of males.

​

She allowed Allette to spend time with her friends in school after school but not anywhere outside the school after school. After losing custody rights to her daughter in court, Blanche managed to find her daughter and threaten her that she must win every game she plays in otherwise she would lock her up although she was planning to lock up her child at the end of the Winter Cup which she stated the intention to do so. Blanche succeeded in kidnapping her daughter but thanks to the help of Allette’s loved ones and the detective, they rescued Allette and recorded Blanche’s verbal threats which revoked her visitation rights. Blanche eventually does something diabolical to land her in jail and committing suicide. When Allette once visited her in jail, she said that she pities her mother for being treated negatively by her step grandmother and that although she raised her in a manner devoid of warmth, she is grateful for how her mother raised her as she became very intelligent and learned to crave human warmth. She asked her mother, doesn’t she crave human warmth, and did she truly think of her father as just a means to get an excellent child? Blanche retorted that she wanted Allette to become stronger than anybody as she is a monster and her other self and, in this world, people would only look down on women and would underestimate Allette. Allette replies that she would be glad to prove to them otherwise but that she has no intention of living as a monster and her mother’s other self and that she would live as her father’s heart and as Youta’s lover. She also stated that she would try to overcome the pain her mother dealt her with. This made Blanche go into a hysterical fit and suicide a few days after. Allette mourned her for a brief period.

:Friends:

Chantelle Aomi aka Sailor Sao

The two of them get along well as both are the brains of the team. They are also cunning but while Allette shows her cunning side often, Chantelle’s cunning side only shows up on the court. Allette is the more intelligent out of the two, but Chantelle admires the wisdom that she possesses. Allette has admitted that Chantelle is kind of scary when her personality takes on a switch much to Chantelle’s embarrassment. The two of them also share similar interests aside from basketball such as swimming, ballet, and drawing. Chantelle is amazed by Allette’s fashion drawings while Allette admires her watercolor paintings. They both have social awkwardness, but Chantelle is always polite and manages to talk to others while Allette gets very scared or tends to act rude which made Chantelle worry about her when they attended different schools. The two of them enjoy singing together and their duets are a delight to listen to. They fight alongside each other as Sailor Guardians.

​

Minette Kurokawa aka Sailor Kerberos

Due to her upbringing where Allette couldn’t receive much physical affection, she was initially flustered and irritated by how Minette always hugged and kissed her cheeks. It took her some time to warm up to it though Minette tried hard not to be overly affectionate and make Allette uncomfortable in the process. After getting used to Minette’s tendencies to be physically affectionate, Allete would have to tell her to try again because she wasn’t mentally prepared to receive her affection the first time. Minette enjoys making Allette giggle from her acts of affection. Minette asked Allette for help on math, but Allette genuinely couldn’t understand why Minette had so much difficulty with the subject and her remarks unintentionally made Minette angry which made Allette get angry back and ask her “Do you want me to show you or not?” This forced Allette to become more patient with Minette who persisted and did improve in math. They fight alongside each other as Sailor Guardians.

Konezu Kenmochi

Her frustration towards a younger girl who was shorter than her beating her in a round of basketball and taking over her position as a point guard caused her negative emotions to manifest into a Retribuo after interacting with the Erinye, Megaera, which started Allette’s awakening as Sailor Leda. Konezu was ashamed of her negative emotions, but Allette surprisingly reassured that it was understandable and that normally, she wouldn’t have challenged her for her position, but she had no choice given that her former captain requested that the Princesses of Basketball face off against each other in Japan to find out who was the strongest. Konezu then finally accepted that Allette was the new point guard since the younger girl was extremely intelligent and skilled after all. The more she watched Allette, the more she was able to admit Allette’s exceptional ability in basketball. She was horrified to find out Allette had never eaten ramen and had the team eat at her dad’s ramen shop to celebrate one of their victories. After finding out that cheese was a part of French cuisine, she even specially made Allette a cheese ramen.

​

:Rivals:

Her fellow Princesses of Basketball used to be her fellow basketball teammates and good friends. But as their strengths in basketball grew, their friendship weakened. When they all moved to Japan in autumn, they transferred to different schools, making them rivals among each other to prove which one of them is the strongest Princess of Basketball. It wasn't until later on that they would regain their friendship due to her efforts to make them reawaken their love of basketball after defeating them whenever she faced them although she states that this is part of her need to get revenge on them for being the first people who were her friends but hurt her greatly as well as saying that defeating tall people is one of her few pleasures. 

​

:Love Interests:

Youta Hidaka aka Apollo Knight

Youta was the first male around her age that Allette ever met. He was initially scared by her because he thought she was a doll playing basketball. He was attracted to her at first sight so even if he irritates her just for hanging around her whenever he visits Tokyo and she acts tsundere towards him, he persists in being around her because he wants to get to know her and learns a lot about her interests over time. Eventually, Allette starts to see him as a good friend and recognize his intelligence. She also protects Youta and when they are fighting together as their alter egos or in civilian forms and Youta reciprocates this. He also takes care of her. Youta teaches her about social skills. When he admits his feelings to her, she confesses that she feels the same. When they enter a relationship, he makes her feel more flustered. They love each other dearly. Allette makes him feel inspired when it comes to fashion or playing basketball and Youta gives her strength for basketball matches or fighting. Youta has encouraged Allette to wear stylish flats instead of heels after basketball practice or a match so that she doesn't feel pain. In his opinion, she already has an impressive presence so she should have more confidence in herself. He invited the Generation of Miracles to the joint Jovian Moon Sailor Guardians' birthday party to her dismay despite admiring them to a degree. 

​

Her type of man is an intelligent male.
