Theme: Family--"Ode To My Family" by The Cranberries lyrics
Genre: General, Romance
Version: Anime
Rating: PG
“I wasn’t lying about the ninja assassin thing.”
“I find that hard to--but the Dark Kingdom does have such things.”
“I am under Lady Oniwabandana’s command, but no, that’s not what I meant. Before I became a youma.”
“I thought you said you didn’t have an angsty childhood,” Shingo challenged.
“I didn’t. Took my years to figure out that other kid’s parents didn’t wake them by throwing a shuriken.”
“Your parents were ninjas?”
Raina shrugged. “My father was a minor bureaucrat in South Africa. That’s where I’m from by the way. They sometimes argued about her setting trap bombs under the floor while I was at school, but she always said that if she didn’t I’d fall behind and all the other ninja kids would laugh at me. She actually taught me more how to laugh than how to fight.”
“It must have been... nice?”
“It was.”
