Turkey!’s Rina Godai character trailer proves the serious girl really just wants to make friends
Rina is nowhere near as obnoxious as she first appears
Another of the cute girls in the new sports themed original anime Turkey! got a character video today. (watch below)
This time it’s Rina Godai’s character video.
And, as you will have likely seen from the anime’s main trailers, out of all the girls in her high school club, Rina is the girl who takes bowling the most seriously, while also berating her fellow bowling club members for “not wanting to win”.
In Rina Godai’s character trailer, though, it is also obvious that, while she is commenting that she doesn’t like bowling club leader Mai Otonashi, she really just wants to be accepted by all the girls and find a place where she belongs.
Her seriousness, of course, will get in the way of that.
As the Pony Canyon YouTube channel explains about Rina:
A first-year high school student who transferred in the spring and is the only junior member of the bowling club.
Passionate about bowling, she sometimes comes across as harsh toward the club captain, Mai. However, deep down, she respects Mai’s skills more than anyone else.
Kana Ichinose (Fern in Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End) voices Rina.
