Oriha is Sekirei #101 and one of Izumi Higa's many Sekirei. She fights using several bladed disks similar to chakrams and greatly fears snakes. She fought against Tsukiumi while trying to acquire Homura for Izumi during the Sekirei Plan's Second Stage.[1] During the Third Stage and her Ashikabi's match, she fought against Haihane (of the Disciplinary Squad) and was seemingly defeated by her, but reappeared later and attacked Minato, who was barely saved by Homura. She faced off against Tsukiumi in a rematch of their previous battle in Norito mode, but was overwhelmed, defeated, and terminated by the superior power of Tsukiumi's Norito.[2]
Appearance
Oriha is a short and petite female Sekirei with short, slightly messy yet straight purple hair and olive green eyes. She wears a ruffled white blouse under a long black dress that frames the blouse and leaves a box-like cutout exposing the blouse around her chest. Ribbons are a prominent part of Oriha's ensemble and she wears several purple ones, including in her hair and over her breasts level to her collarbone. She additionally wears dark heels and long white gloves that reach her elbows. When she made her first appearance, she wore a dark cape that obscured her facial features apart from her mouth.
Personality
Oriha usually maintains a certain level of lady-like propriety when she battles, including curtseying to her opponents before a battle and when introducing herself. She is shown to be casual and cheery in her interactions with her allies, including Katsuragi and Kakizaki, and often speaks in a high, sing-song voice. Any level-headedness on her part is thrown to the wind when snakes are involved, as she has ophidiophobia, or a severe fear of snakes, demonstrated when facing Tsukiumi, and the Water Sekirei's Yamata no Orochi technique. While usually dignified and upbeat, Oriha is not above being ruthless, as shown when she made attempts on Minato and Natsuo's lives during her Ashikabi's Third Stage match, which necessitated the intervention of Homura and Haihane at different times to save their Ashikabi's lives. She is greatly emotional when it comes to her Ashikabi, eagerly being wiling to use her Norito to aid him, and despite his mistreatment of her, seems to genuinely love him. However, she is greatly saddened at his lack of reciprocation for her feelings, and this is demonstrated by her shed tears and general sadness, fear, and distress during her final appearance.
Abilities and Powers
Oriha is a weapons-type Sekirei, who fights using several flying bladed disks that bear a resemblance to chakrams. Their trajectory can be freely controlled by Oriha in a telekinetic fashion which makes them a serious threat to her opponents, and due to this ability of Oriha's, she prefers to fight with long-ranged attacks. She has good reflexes and was durable enough to remain active after receiving several attacks from Haihane that initially seemed to have terminated her. As with all Sekirei, her Norito greatly boosts her power, enough to momentarily allow her to challenge a Single Number (Tsukiumi).

History
Nothing is known about her past minus the commonalities between all Sekirei due to their affiliation with MBI. At some point in the past, she was winged by Izumi Higa.
