Orihime Soletta (ソレッタ・織姫, Soretta Orihime) was a member of European Star Division and is a member of the Teikoku Kagekidan's Hanagumi and joins in Sakura Taisen 2.

Appearance

Orihime has a mixed Italian-Japanese heritage. She has lustrous black hair and a curvaceous figure.

She usually wears a yellow and red dress.

Personality

An extremely beautiful Italian-Japanese girl with a thick Italian accent, Orihime was at first cordial to all of her fellow teammates except for Ichiro Ogami. The reason she holds a grudge against Oogami is because her Japanese father, Seiya Ogata, abandoned her; After that, she despised all Japanese men, thinking them unreliable. However, Ōgami managed to eventually reunite her with Ogata, with whom she made peace, and Orihime and Ōgami become close friends.

But although the events, the most striking feature in her personality is, without a doubt, the fact that Orihime is extremely chatty, always speaking loudly and fast without pauses, and being very easy to be angered. This, along with her exaggerated accent, makes her one of the most funniest and sincere characters in the franchise.
