Character Backstory
Arcadia (Goli's Graphic Gallery) (Arcadia #26, July 2002) / IIDX Bible
Making her debut in 3rd style, Celica's exact place and date of birth are unknown. An 18-year-old[note 1] who is not very good with cats. Erika is her identical twin sister. Her biological father is a famous pianist who performs all over the world. Her biological mother kept the birth of Erika and Celica a secret from her biological father, and during a snowstorm, she entrusted Erika and Celica to an orphanage in Hokkaido, where she died. After that, Celica became the adopted daughter of a couple living in Fukuoka before her memories developed, and was raised with care as the only daughter. In addition, she wasn't informed of her adoption. When she turned 16, Celica was allowed to move to Tokyo, where she had a fateful reunion with Erika in Shinjuku.
Since then, the two have been on good terms, playing IIDX together and going to clubs every day. Neither of them knew they were sisters. It's been three years since Celica started playing IIDX. She is currently a first-year art student living alone in Tokyo. She is an apprentice/kouhai of Q-Jack and is studying production set design (staging, lighting, etc.). Among IIDX songs, She likes those by NAOKI and DJ TAKA, and especially likes bright and lively sounds. She participates in various events with Erika and enjoys the IIDX life with Yuz and Shi-low. Her favorite phrase these days is "goe goe."
Recently, she has been concerned that Erika has been acting distant from her. Erika seems to be having problems, but unlike usual, she doesn't talk to her about them. Thinking that it must be a very important problem, Celica plans to quietly watch over Erica until she confides her concerns to her. Rather than having a boyfriend, she enjoys playing IIDX and other games with her friends every day. But she is starting to develop a faint crush on a certain guy. He is different from her friends, and for some reason, she blushes when around him. She is cheerful, but she is also quite shy. Today, she is still going straight for the pure-hearted maiden path.
ROOTS26S [suite]
A female college student who moved to Tokyo from Fukuoka to attend an art college. While working a temporary part-time job at ROOTS26, she met Erika who came for a part-time job interview. Since then, they have become best friends, and since Celica has been staying at Erika's house forever, they share a room to save on rent. She hates cats, but loves video games, manga, and sweets. She is a natural person with a bit of a strange behavior, but her drawing skills are quite good.

Character Backstory
Arcadia (Goli's Graphic Gallery)
Celica's twin sister. "I am currently working as a walking mannequin at my 10th part-time job, ROOTS26, for a low wage. I end up getting free clothes instead as compensation."
On her 18th birthday (inaccurate), she was informed by her adoptive father that she was an orphan and had a younger sister. "In the fire at the orphanage two and a half years ago, everything, including my records and the address book of my sister's place of care, was burned. Currently, the only clue to finding my sister is a vague memory from before I could remember anything. My first memory, which I had several dreams of, was of 'A small child crying after being scratched by a cat in the park playing a prank.'
I can't remember the child's face." Among IIDX's playmates, she likes pranks and has a strong image of always smiling,
"It is also the flip side of the helpless loneliness that I feel when I know my sister's existence. Only Shi-low, who is a friend, is talking about her. Working part-time to save even a little money, building a computer and being in the internet world are all means of searching for the younger sister of memory.
In IIDX, I like songs with powerful sounds and bright images. I hope that my sister is laughing and playing the same song somewhere as I am, so I will work hard at my part-time job today as well."

Character Backstory
Arcadia (Goli's Graphic Gallery) / IIDX bible
Duel is originally from East London, the mecca of clubbing, in England. In the past, he naturally liked clubs with an underground atmosphere, but recently he's been listening to music that incorporates a wide variety of elements.
A former hooligan with a passion for soccer, Duel was a teenager who often got into trouble for assaults. However, a fascination with Japanese movies brought him to Japan after a change of heart. Duel stopped by a video game arcade once, and fell in love with IIDX. He was so impressed with Japanese culture that he founded "TO-RA-YA," a company selling pure Japanese culture, in order to develop an online business for Japanese connoisseurs in his home country. He has been promoting Japanese music and culture to the world. He was a leading provider of Japanese music and culture to the world, but went bankrupt in the wake of the recession. However, he published a book, aided by his study of Japanese history and his hobby of memorizing dialects of various regions of Japan. His first book, "Matcha Milk Tea" became a phenomenal hit around the world. With the royalties, he bought his own IIDX machine.
Seeing the beauty of Japanese taste with the green color of wasabi, he has been going to "Tetsu Sushi" every day for a month. He was living an elegant royalty life, eating high-class sushi as usual. However, after the sushi, he sometimes orders a cup of tea, only to have Tekka's grandfather sprinkle salt on his face. Even so, he is picky about his tea time. He likes the tanning he and Ereki had at a tanning salon, and he promotes it to Tekka as well. Is it because of the Japanese beauty or because of the black hair of the red girl that Q-Jack is chasing around?
