Sylphynford Tachibana (橘・シルフィンフォード, Tachibana Shirufinfōdo) is the self-proclaimed rival and classmate of Umaru in Himouto! Umaru-chan. She is as popular as Umaru and comes from a rich family.
Appearance
Sylphyn as she appears in the manga
Sylphyn has sky blue, long wavy hair, with two shorter strands that lay on the front of her shoulders. Her hair appears to be held back by a white hairband with yellow flowers. One of her most unique features is her plus-shaped eyes that almost resemble stars and her smug cat like smile.
Sylphyn wears an adjusted version of her school uniform, with pale blue shoes, a puffy short blue skirt, and fluffy material around the cuff of her sleeves and the bottom of her skirt. Around her collar is a dark blue ribbon.
Personality
Sylphynford is very confident and competitive. She constantly states that Umaru is her rival that she must beat, but always comes second to her. However, she's very kind and doesn't insult those she's competing against, and even bought a bouquet of flowers for Umaru on her birthday.
She is also quick to feel embarassed when she realizes that people are watching her show off, especially if her brother Alex is present.
She pushes herself to stand out within the crowd, always wanting to make an exaggerated entrance and impress those around her especially Umaru.
She also becomes best friends with UMR (Umaru's gaming persona) and looks up to her.
Background
Sylphynford appears to come from a wealthy background, and is of German descent. Like Umaru she doted on her brother and always wanted to be near him. Its because of her brother she developed an interest in Japanese culture and wanted Japanese friends. She later moved to Japan with her brother. During a flashback in Episode 7, she was shown sitting next to a fountain in front of a large house with her brother. In Episode 12, her family is shown to own a yacht.
