Many manga works were released in 2018. Among them, have you heard of Radiant, which was imported from France and made into an anime in October 2018? It is a classic magical fantasy that Japanese people had almost forgotten. It is a boy's story with many battles. Today, we will introduce the charms of the magician Meri from Radiant.
Who is Meri from Radiant?
Beautiful Girl

She has curly hair, a black ribbon headband, and emerald-colored eyes. Her small crimson cape and chic navy blue costume are bold, but the orange sash belt makes her look a little circus-like. It gives a very cute impression, doesn't it?
Cheerless? Optimistic?

The first time she met the main character, Seto, was in a prison cell. Meri was fast asleep during the encounter, and she was so laid-back that she greeted Seto with a smile, saying, "Nice to meet you." She seems to be a bit absent-minded, and even when she is in jail, she doesn't seem to be shaken. Is she resigned, or calm? This kind of laid-back attitude is also one of Meri's charms! She's soothing.
Affiliation

Meri is an apprentice wizard who belongs to Artemis Academy, a large organization of many wizards. Her specialty is defensive magic, but not so much offensive magic. She's a girl who enjoys using magic like this!
[Radiant] Meri's Relationships
Partner

This is "Mr. Bobli," who acts together with Meri. He's like a familiar and also a friend of Mili. Considering her small size, she has a big attitude (lol). By the way, her cry is "Pui". This is what makes her so cute.
Researcher

This is a researcher at Artemis Academy, just like Meri. He is the one who gave the order to Meri to bring back Nemesis from Pompo Hills. He may be Meri's boss, but he is always the one being bossed around by Meri.

Dual personality

When Meri is under severe stress, she snaps and changes her character! This Meri is good at attacking and has a very aggressive personality. Her tone of voice is violent, with comments like "Isn't that right?" and "It's not that!" You can think of her as the complete opposite of the normal Meri, but this character is more popular (lol)
Cool

She usually uses magic without much confidence, but when she becomes Black Meri, her combat ability increases dramatically and she is full of confidence! She is a character that will take you straight into the battle. Her expression is really appealing.
Intelligence also increases

White Meri is basically fluffy and tends to get flustered during battles, but Black Meri is always thinking about how to attack the opponent effectively. Isn't that sharp gaze wonderful?
【Radiant】Meri is cute
Innocent

She's so innocent that she usually screams at the sight of a man wearing underwear. Her face turns red, making her look like a real heroine. She's still at a shy age.
Always smiling

Meri is always smiling and lightens up the atmosphere. Even if she faces many hardships, she always shows her brightest smile at the end. You'll definitely feel healed.

The Basics Are Defense

Meri's specialty is defense. However, she is not suited to long-term attacks. Although this will change as she grows, she is a wizard suited to short-term battles.
Attacks sometimes

When it comes to attacks, I've only seen White Meri's "Meteor Drops". It's less powerful than Black Meri, but watching her fight so hard will make you want to cheer her on!
[Radiant] Meri is voiced by a very popular voice actress!

The voice of Meri is the very popular voice actress Aoi Yuki! She's so cute. By the way, she's 24 years old, but you can't tell (lol). She entered the entertainment industry at the age of 4, and has been in it for 20 years now. She's a veteran. She has played many leading roles, and her most famous role is as Madoka Kaname in Puella Magi Madoka Magica. Her acting and voice are perfect for Meri.
[Radiant] Meri is a heroine like a real heroine

What did you think? We have introduced the most anticipated character of this season, Radiant, and we have looked into the charms of Meri! She is a classic heroine, even when she is captured by the enemy, and when she talks, she clasps both hands and places them on her mouth. At first, I was confused by the appearance of Black Meri, but now I am looking forward to her appearance. I'm sure you will see her in the anime and manga! Radiant has just started. It's a big hit.
