Kujō Rin

Kujō Rin is Tenjōin Saki's loyal and longest known friend. Rin is skilled in kendo and has been a loyal bodyguard to Saki for years, as her family has always served the Tenjouin family in this position. The bespectacled Fujisaki Aya is weak-willed and became associated with Saki after she and Rin protected her from bullies when they were children.

On times, Rin is also shown to wear an outfit that constants of a dark blue colored short-sleeve shirt that is underneath a flap dark purple colored shirt with white/tan colored pants.

Personality
Rin is generally expressionless and formal, but she can get really angry when it comes to Yūki Rito's clumsiness towards her, Fujisaki Aya, and most of all, Tenjōin Saki, who she is very loyal to. Although she has shown to smile practically once to Rito as a sign of understanding, it didn't last long due to another one of his mishaps. She thinks his sister is more reliable than he is. However, Rin began developing feelings with Rito in Darkness Chapter 33 when he saved her, and became more patient and grateful with him.

History
Rin has served Tenjōin Saki as her bodyguard, but Saki has always thought of her as a close friend instead. They first met when Rin came to Saki in the garden introducing herself as the daughter of the Tenjouin family's butler and then tells her that she will be serving her starting from that day. Saki acted friendly towards Rin and welcomed her company as her friend, and Rin was deeply touched by it. Although most of the time, Rin maintained a professional manner and service around Saki, she truly considers Saki as a close friend.

It was later revealed that Rin suffers from Acrophobia, the extreme or irrational fear of heights.
