[edit] Biography
BlackRose is the first character that Kite meets in the game The World after Orca . When they meet she yells at Kite for no particular reason and runs off to come back shortly. She explains that she wishes to go on an adventure with him. Soon after they arrive at an area that BlackRose told Kite about called " (Delta) Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground". She then explains that she is new to "The World" despite the way she acted earlier. They get attacked by a monster that cannot be defeated by a normal character. BlackRose is a Heavy Blade in The World. Her real name is Akira Hayami.
Kite gets his Bracelet after this incident. However with BlackRose following Kite around she gets constantly watched by the administrators of "the world".
It turns out that "Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground" was where her younger brother, Kazu (Fumikazu in real life), was attacked by a Data bug, rendering him unconscious and in a coma in the real world, similar to Kite's friend Orca. She and Kite decided to work together, in hopes of finding a way to cure their loved ones as well as discovering the mystery of The World.
Later on in .hack//Legend of the Twilight, Rena gains a chibi version of BlackRose's avatar, which is ironic considering Rena and BlackRose knew each other in real life but never knew of each other's online identity.
In addition to this, she was depicted in .hack//GIFT as wielding a tennis racket, which is appropriate giving her real life alter-ego's penchant for playing the sport.
Many fans have noticed that Black Rose and Mimiru seem to be the same except for the colors.[citation needed] Another noticible difference is that BlackRose has tights while Mimiru does not.
The novel series, .hack//Another Birth, is a retelling of the .hack games from BlackRose's point of view. During the novel, some aspects are changed around. An example of this is when Kite lectures BlackRose on not staring in The World since it is rude. This actually happens the other way around on the video game version.
