—Catchphrase

Urara Haneyama is a character in Cardfight!! Vanguard will+Dress. A young girl around the age of a first year middle school student and is a recent beginner at playing Vanguard.

In will+Dress Season 2, She is also a new member of the Front Fighter Team, Tirnanog Youth. She later meets Halona Walker, who introduces her to Uniformers which she eventually gets brainwashed. However after her loss against Yu-yu Kondo, Urara has quit Uniformers so she can continue to fight with her own style.

Appearance[]

Urara is a short 13-year old girl. Her hair is short and peachy pink, with straight bangs down the middle of her forehead. Her eyes are large and round, with yellow colored irises. She wears her middle school uniform, which consists of a loose pale green vest lined with brown, a loose cream-colored blouse, brown tie, and brown skirt. She also wears cream-colored socks and brown loafers.

Personality[]

Urara is a cheerful girl. She aims to always enjoy herself in her hobbies, which are playing the flute and Vanguard. She takes a lot of pride in these things, often losing herself in thought when doing them. She also likes to eat.

Urara is also shown to be forgetful, easily flustered and a bit clumsy. In will+Dress Episode 1, she falls asleep on the bus she is riding home and misses her stop, where she is then taken in by Megumi Okura to Wonder Hill and meets Yu-yu Kondo and the rest of Team Blackout. In Episode 2, she panickily introduces herself to all the Deluxe fighters in the waiting room, and then immediately worries that she made a bad first impression. Often at the beginning of her matches in Deluxe, she fumbles her deck while shuffling.

History[]

Urara has a passion for playing the flute. She is in her school's band and takes immense pride in it. However, in the past, she experienced troubles because of her concentration (see Abilities). At the beginning of Episode 5, she tells Mirei Minae that her concentration causes trouble for others. In band practice, Urara would get lost in her own music, which led her to be scolded by the teacher because she couldn't keep rhythm with the others.

As a result, Urara is scared that if she can't meet others' expectations, she won't be able to enjoy her hobbies and that she will lose friends. This shows at the beginning of will+Dress Episode 10, where she has a nightmare that everyone will abandon her because she disappointed everyone. During her match with Yu-yu, she continues to have thoughts of self-doubt. However, Yu-yu helps her to recognize her reason for playing Vanguard, which is just to have fun and fight the way she wants to fight.

Abilities[]

Urara is repeatedly shown to have some form of synesthesia, hearing a ringing tone during her fights when she senses an important card coming, to which she says "I heard it". She also hears a similar harsh ringing tone when she sees Raika Koshiba fight, which she finds uncomfortable.

She also has a very strong sense of concentration. When she plays Vanguard, she becomes so enthralled by the fight that she can't hear or see anything around her, only focusing on the board. She utilizes this ability to win against several high-ranking Fighters in the Deluxe tournament, despite her status as a beginner. She seems unaware of her own strength, often exclaiming incredulously, "Huh? Did I win?!" at the end of her fights, upon hearing roaring cheers for her victory. However, Urara believes that this ability of hers is a flaw.

Trivia[]

  • Urara is the first Cardfight Vanguard character to be voiced by the same person in Japanese and English.
