Despite her youth, she is a highly skilled fighter who poses a tough challenge to the flick’s protagonist, the Bᵥʳide 👰💒. A personnage of a sort, with an air of nonchalance, some kind of je-ne-sais-quoi//couldn’t-care-less attitude 👁… so yh! she’s become an iconic figVRe in popular cultVRe *by now* | | | 📜🎞.
