Takina Inoue (井ノ上 たきな)

Takina Inoue is one of the main characters in Lycoris Recoil, an anime that follows the activities of a group of secret agents known as Lycoris, responsible for maintaining peace in Japan. Initially a highly skilled agent of the Direct Attack (DA) organization, Takina was demoted after acting against orders during a mission. She was then assigned to work at LycoReco, a cafe with a covert Lycoris operation, under the supervision of the legendary Chisato Nishikigi.

Appearance

Takina has a serious and disciplined look, perfectly matching her stoic personality. She has long dark hair, typically styled in a low ponytail, with a straight fringe that frames her face. Her eyes are sharp and determined, reflecting her no-nonsense attitude. Takina usually wears her Lycoris uniform: a sleek black and navy ensemble that highlights her focus and dedication to her duties. While at LycoReco, she also dons a waitress outfit, which contrasts with her militaristic past but helps her blend into her new role at the cafe.

Personality

Takina is highly mission-driven and takes her duties seriously, always striving for efficiency and results. She initially shows little regard for teamwork, focusing more on the objective than on the people around her. Over time, thanks to Chisato’s influence, she becomes more compassionate and starts embracing the importance of personal connections and empathy. Despite her cool and collected demeanor, Takina’s growth is marked by her increasing ability to balance duty with personal care for others.

Skills&Abilities

Takina is an expert marksman with impeccable accuracy, making her one of the most skilled Lycoris agents in the field. She is proficient in hand-to-hand combat as well, though her preference for firearms makes her a formidable opponent from a distance. Unlike Chisato, who prefers non-lethal tactics, Takina’s combat style is more aggressive and focused on eliminating threats swiftly. Throughout the series, she learns the value of non-lethal methods and becomes a more well-rounded agent.
