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.

== Character Backstory ==
=== Arcadia (Goli's Graphic Gallery) ===
His real name is Quisling Jack.
He graduated from an art university in Japan as a special audition student. He has not returned to his home country of Norway, and is staying in Japan. Currently, he is working for Seiei and playing an active role as the villain (Dark Prince Pipiltine) in "Tsurion Sentai Hi-Hatman".
Q-Jack is also able to wear the heavy costume for the photo shoot with ease and confidence. Once, he ordered his drinking buddy [[Siren]] to play the role of an enemy (Gronzon, a black-toothed demon) who will be beaten for a week if he lost in a IIDX contest. And thus, his subordinate was born.
After the filming was over, they were drunkenly parading around Kabukicho at night in their costumes when, of course, they were questioned by the police. The two villains were chased around by the police for two hours late at night. In the end, they had to eat katsudon (pork cutlet on rice) at the police station.
Q-Jack got seriously hooked on IIDX when he saw [[Nyah]], a woman, beat men at their own game. Even now, he hasn't been able to win against her even once.
In IIDX, he especially likes to play [[dj TAKA]]'s music. If you approach him from behind without being noticed, you can hear him humming "[[Memories (TAKA)|Memories]]," the lyrics of which he has recently forgotten.
His hobbies are baking cakes and figurines.
When he gave Nyah a doll of herself, she recoiled from it with all her might.

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.


Half Japanese, half American. If anything, Nix likes America more.
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.  


[[Shi-low]] and Nix always disagree on this point, but his favorite food is chazuke. Nix grew up at the [CLASSIFIED] Air Base and enlisted in the Air Force, wanting to be a pilot. However, he was unjustly discharged from the military due to a dispute with a superior officer. Since then, he has been searching for his life goal.
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 [[Sakura (character)|the red girl]] that [[Q-Jack]] is chasing around?


As an aspiring pilot, he has always had a good eye and high dynamic vision. Although he can easily handle challenging songs in IIDX, he rarely plays the game seriously and only plays it for fun. He usually works part-time at a gas station and plays around Shinjuku and Shibuya.
=== Arcadia (ROOTS26) ===
 
When Duel was a teenager in London, a retail store owned by his parents went bankrupt due to the stock market crash of its parent company, and Duel's life became extremely impoverished. In order to survive, he became a broker in the black market in his mid-teens. His father fled to alcohol and drugs in order to escape his debt-ridden life, causing Duel to lose both the father he looked up to and his childhood dream of becoming a soccer player. The anger of poverty turned the once passionate soccer boy into a "hooligan" who repeatedly engaged in violent brawls at the stadium. Duel was blacklisted by the Scotland Yard (London Metropolitan Police), and hid in the underworld when he caused trouble. However, this life came to an end after several years when Duel was stabbed with a knife, and critically injured in a fight over territory rights. A chance viewing of a Japanese movie in the hospital introduced him to Japan, a country with a colorful culture unlike the gray, smoggy London. From the movie "Otoko wa Tsurai yo," Duel came across the words "GIRI" (social obligation) and "NIN-JYO," (compassion) and moved to Japan. After traveling around Japan for a while, Duel decided to apply his skills and business acumen from his black market days to the real world. Duel developed an online business, and his books on culture from British and Japanese perspectives sold well worldwide, and he was able to live off the royalties. He has given his parents back at home a loan to rebuild their store, and is currently working on a new business venture of his own. In his hard youth, he has always been supported by the memory of the "milk tea" his father used to make for him when he was a child.
He has always loved games and music, and in IIDX, he likes the music of [[TaQ]]. He often listens to hard and austere music such as DRUM'N BASS and BIG BEAT. He and [[Erika]], whom he often sees at the store (ROOTS26), seem to have the same taste.
 
He has been staying at [[Siren]]'s house for almost a year without permission. He hates summer and always keeps his room air conditioned at a maximum of 18 degrees Celsius<ref group="note">64.4 degrees Farenheit</ref>. He does his best to stay away from places without air-conditioners, and ends up in a bad mood at his part-time job in the summer.
 
On the other hand, he's not pleasant during winter either. Once he gets into the kotatsu up to his head, he never comes out. During winter, he basically becomes a turtle. Of course, Siren pays the high utility bills, and they both catch colds.

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."
