More of a hands on learner because of her ability to adapt so easily in physical activities.
Fixes motor bikes (with Riku).
Her (and Riku) still own their motorcycles from their biker gang days. (technically there is some sort proof of this in later chapter when Riku shows up to the woman's prison for that rematch.)
I think Riko would kind of like flowers because her and Riku are from Saitama prefecture. Saitama has beautiful flower meadows and mountains to enjoy. (Plus Riko wears a flower shirt in one of the early chapters!)
Even though they had more of an urban upbringing. I feel like she (and Riku) would be chill being in nature. Not proficient in camping or anything, cause they are knuckle heads, but they would probably survive out in the woods because of how head strong they are.
Riko really enjoys red meat. (Cause of her love of steak, this feels like its a given.)
Riko went to Juvenile detention. At 18 or 19. (Maybe she graduated high school. Probably finished schooling through reformation school.)
I don't think Riko and Riku’s parents were present in their lives during their formative years. Either they are dead beats or actually dead, because the Sena sister's chaotic behavior doesn't scream "i have supportive, stable, consistent guidance in my life." 😅 Or the more general thought, they are a little unhinged because they like to throw hands so much. Which for this story, not unusual in the slightest. XD
In fact think their parents may potentially have also lead rebellious lifestyles. If they're alive.
I think Riko and Riku live in a small apartment they pay for by themselves in Saitama prefecture.
Riko is surface level, more laid back than Riku and not just because of their general difference in approach. I feel like its also because, one: The Juvenile detention center Riko went to focused on reformation, so Riko probably has that in her head. Two: Riko Is so simple and straight forward in actions and words. I can't imagine her holding a grudge in the same way that Riku does. I mean shoot the older Sena wasn't even mad that Yuzuah beat her via ring out.
Riko clearly knows that Riku hates living in her shadow. Which is why she lets Riku live and learn/ let's little sister make her own path.
(Always has Riku's back when things get tough though.)
Fixes motorcycles for extra cash also has odd jobs like train pushers (Oshiya) for cash when money is tight.
I think she (and Riku) didn't grow up with a lot of financial stability. (Cause of the deadbeat and or dead parents.)
Dose not wear make up save for lip balm and one tube of mascara.
That mascara only gets used on special occasions.
I think Riko is really proud of her body because she tends to wear more revealing attire compared to Riku. (Not just the tank tops to show off the gun show, but also she did wear shorts in her introduction panel. Plus her fighting attire is crop top and biker shorts, like this girl definitely owns booty shorts and crop tops that she busts out in the summer. And she has to have some nice thick biker jacket if not faux leather than definitely dark thick denim.)
I think they absolutely still hang out with some of their former gang pals. (Majority women)
Speaking of women, I think Riko could potentially be queer! In my humble opinion, any physical sport in which you are man handling your opponents. Has a high potential of having at least one or two (or more) queer individuals participating in the sport. Cause queer people can be badass fighters too; Besides, there is an openly queer fighter in STAR Strike IT Rich anyway (See: Morisaki Natsumi) so this feeds my bisexual heart!
I think Riko and Riku's parents set them up crazy with the names they were given🤣 (That's just my own personal opinion on that one)
I know it's manga and anyone can have rainbow hair if the author wants. I learned recently that it is seen in some circles as rebellious in Japan to dye your hair a lighter/ vibrant color. So I feel like Riko and Riku bleached their hair to commit to that biker gang life. However, I personally think it would be cute as they get older, if their dark hair grew out and they kept the blond underneath or dyed their ends. Like a throwback to their past shenanigans in the gang.
I don't think Riko (or Riku) would be ashamed of their gang affiliation or their past, because they do what they want (for the most part) anyway. And this is why they are so entertaining to read about!
So some of this absolutely turned into some Riku head canons too, cause how could it not when Riko and Riku are sisters and their family connection is a big part of their characters. I got to say though it was fun going down a mental rabbit hole with them! ^w^
