Rin (凛) is a young woman who was once one of Yuko's customers. She has claimed to be 21 and 22 years old on two separate occasions, but her actual age (told by her coworkers) is about 28.

Appearance[]

She appears to be an ordinary young lady, dressed casually. She has short curly brown hair.

Personality[]

She seems to be a compulsive liar, though her acquaintances mention that she doesn't seem to do this maliciously; it's possible she's unable to control her lying. She lied about having a boyfriend and the origin of the ring Yuko gave her on several occasions.

Biography[]

She first appears in Yūko shop, just after the gang was watching Watanuki cooking. Her wish was that her pinky would get better because it was feeling stiff. Yūko Ichihara advised her that the reason why her pinky couldn't move was because she had a bad habit, which is marked by black smoke circling her pinky. The woman denied having a bad habit, so Yuko gave her a ring to put on. Later on, Kimihiro Watanuki learns that her bad habit is lying. Rin is a compulsive liar and every time she lies, the ring that Yuko gave her gets dirtier & the black smoke gets bigger surrounding her. While she was crossing the street, she notices the dirty ring and takes it off. Suddenly, her whole body was paralyzed and she became unable to move. Then, the street light changed to green and a truck hit her.

In the manga, the woman dies in the crash but in the anime, she survives and is taken to the hospital; whether or not she stopped lying after this in the anime continuity is left ambiguous.
