Appearance

Concept artwork of Viola.

Viola is a slim young girl of medium height. She has blonde hair cut in a chin length bob which curls under, with two slightly longer, thin locks which hand in front of her ears, green eyes and a pale complexion. She wears a white vest, greyish- green cropped pants with lots of pockets and a white belt, brown ankle boots with laces that match her trousers and a matching sweatband on her left wrist. She is also often seen with her camera.

Personality

Energetic and always ready for a photo-op, Viola seems to love taking photos of precious memories.

Etymology

The name Viola, which is both her English and Japanese names, could be an anagram for "Voila!", which is usually said after completing an impressive task. In her case, it would pertain to her photography. Her name could also come from the "violin" beetle or could also comes from "Viola", a genus of skippers (butterfly-like insects). Following the plant-based naming of most characters, it could also literally be "Viola", a genus of flowering plants.
