Overview Gallery

The best stylist can extract the unique charm from each work infused by any designer, enable the wearer to feel the magic of the clothing, and help them face their life with more confidence.

Kimi, often referred to as Lady Kimi, is a character that appears in Love Nikki. She is the daughter of the Apple Federation Apparel Group's president, and is heiress of this group. She is currently working for and travelling with Joe, the chief designer of the group.

Bio

Appearance

Kimi is a short, doll-like teen girl with pale skin and sharp grey eyes. Kimi's eyes are purple, and her long, silver hair is worn loose with a braid on each side of the head pulled back and held with a ribbon. Her short bangs are neatly brushed and layered.

Her normal attire consists of a white dress with black ribbon details, black 15cm heels with black string wrapped on each ankle, and a simple pair of earrings.

Personality

Haughty, strong, brave even in the face of trouble. Kimi has grown up with a strong sense of responsibility. She is quite independent and a hard worker rising to the top and becoming a great stylist and business leader without the help of her father's influence.[1]

Kimi is the only daughter of the most rich and powerful businessman in the nation of Apple Federal, the chairman of the Apple Federation Apparel Group. As such, she has lived all her life in the lap of luxury and had also witnessed how hard her family and their close associate, Mr. Joe, have worked for the enterprise. Kimi wants to not just be known as "the heiress" of the Apparel, but also be a designer in her own right.

History

Childhood

Kimi was raised with the expectations of being the heir to the Apple Apparel Group. She showed talents in designing from an early age and went to school for designing, though she also showed promise in styling as well. Some of her early designs include Bright Galaxy, Black & White Galaxy, and Houndstooth.

Chapter 2 Fairy Tale World Lilith

Kimi makes her first appearance during 2-8 Rehearsal at Theater!. She is seen talking to Lisa and comments that the Star Sea was worth the trip before Joe informs her that the president of the Apple Federation wants them to return. Momo also comments on her great beauty.

Chapter 5 Mutated Tea Party

At the Designer's Tea Party, Kimi reveals that she and Joe have been watching Nikki's performance. Joe then comments that Nikki has natural talent, to which Kimi agrees, calling her a gem. However, she states that Nikki still has a long way to go if she was to work for the Apple Federation Apparel Group. She then decides to introduce herself to Nikki and asks if she could compete with her with the condition that if Nikki wins, she will consider guiding her towards becoming an outstanding stylist. After she does so, Kimi gives Nikki some advice and asks her what styling means to her.

Suddenly, a masked woman appears and threatens to steal Lunar's designs. After Nikki beats her and she leaves, she drops a badge belonging to the Iron Rose Stylist Legion. However, Kimi believes it is not them, as the Iron Rose would not be so rash or bold. She then leaves, having business to attend to with the Apple Apparel Group.

Chapter 10 Styling Contest Games

Kimi attends the Fantasy Styling Contest in Royal City in order to encourage Nikki, much to the girl's excitement. She predicts that Nikki will win the contest after her experience in Cloud. During the group games, she assesses the competition and gives information about the reward, the opportunity to design the Fairytale Concerto.

Chapter 11 Styling Contest Finals

Kimi warns Nikki of the other two talented finalists - one is Ace, and the other is Sherry. During the contest finals, Kimi notices the suspicious behavior pointing towards Nidhogg's impending rebellion. She is most likely separated from Nikki and her friends after the rebellion begins.

Chapter 16 Night before Storm

Kimi and Orlando appear on the Cloud Empire, telling Nikki that they're in a very difficult situation: the Apparel Group has been targeted. On one hand, Orlando managed to rescue Kimi from kidnappers and take her to safety in Cloud, where Zhu Ruosheng will keep them safe; on the other, Joe and Kimi's father Schiller (the Apparel Group's chairman) have been captured. Naturally, Kimi is in quite the vulnerable mental and emotional state, and even more since Orlando was severely wounded trying to protect her.

After Bobo and Nikki manage to cheer her up a little, Kimi decides to stay in Cloud and lay low. Orlando, however, decides to go to war since his homeland is the only thing that can top his friends, and warns Nikki and Kimi about staying calm and looking at things objectively no matter what. Kimi, then, changes her mind and makes her definitive choice: returning to Apple Federation and fighting back against the ones who seized her family's company. Nikki, Momo and Bobo decide to go with her.

Chapter 17 Banquet of Sakura Fall

Now in Welton, Kimi, Nikki, and her friends hear about the White Blossom Banquet almost immediately. Kimi is disturbed by the idea of the precious White Blossom being used as a centerpiece in an auction, since it was a gift from her father to her late mother. Even more, she remembered something her father's kidnappers had said that led her to believe they were the ones who took the dress.

Kimi takes Nikki and her friends to visit Joe in his art gallery, where he managed to hide after escaping from the kidnappers, and discusses the situation. Joe and Nikki both believe it is a trap, but Joe agrees to get Kimi invitations so long as Nikki goes with her. Kimi asks Nikki to be her date, with Kimi disguising herself as a man.

They arrive at the banquet, and Kimi's disguise holds up. However, the reveal that Reid and Charles, the sponsors of the banquet, have the White Blossom brings Kimi to tears. The auction doesn't go well either, and with Nikki's help Kimi tries to raise the prices the items are selling for in order to better discover who the high bidders in the room are.

Reid approaches Kimi and asks her to dance, and she has no choice but to join him since everybody's eyes are on the pair. They begin to dance, but Kimi's hair ribbon falls out, revealing her disguise. Reid quickly kisses her, presumably to hide her face, which causes Kimi to blush.

There is suddenly a blackout, and when the lights come back on the White Blossom is gone. Kimi, Nikki, Bobo and Momo try to apprehend the thief, Sofia in disguise, but she gets away.

Relationships

Nikki

The duo have a friendly rivalry with each other. Kimi views Nikki as a stylist with great potential and entourages her to grow and improve her skill. She becomes one of Nikki's strongest supporters and helps her practice her styling before contests. Kimi speaks very highly of Nikki wherever she goes, namely to Nidhogg and Orlando, and even Joe is surprised by the extent of her praise.

There are hints and speculation that Kimi has romantic feelings for Nikki. In some item descriptions they describe Kimi as preferring Nikki over Joe, and she is shown getting flustered during the Valentine's Day event and denies it meaning anything.

Joe

The two are usually seen together, since Joe has a high position in the Apparel Group. There are rumors that he and Kimi are in a romantic relationship, plus Joe is mentioned to be very popular with women in general, but they are not: they view one another as close friends and partners, nothing less and nothing more. In the Valentines Event, Joe even gives flowers to Nikki - and quickly adds they're from Kimi, rather than from himself.

Orlando

They have known on another for a long time, though it's not clear for how long. Orlando speaks fondly of Kimi after his duel with Nikki, saying that she's the first person Kimi has ever praised highly. In Chapter 16 he saves her from being kidnapped, but is severely injured. They later part ways since he wants to fight for the Apple Federation, whereas Kimi must stay aside for her sake; he returns a short time later, backing her and Nikki up when they face their enemies and especially a skilled sniper.

Chairman Schiller

Schiller is Kimi's father, and the leader of the Apparel Group. Since Kimi's mother died when she was very young, he's raised her on her own and to be the competent, hardworking heiress of Apparel. While he hasn't been seen on-screen, Kimi loves him very much and she's is extremely distressed when he's kidnapped and she barely manages to run away with Orlando.

Reid

As the chairman to the Apple Apparel Group's competitor (the Mercury Group) and aparently an old friend of Kimi, Reid generally does not interfere with the AAG's business out of respect for her, and she seems to trust him. However, during the White Blossom Banquet, he pressures her into dancing with him while she is in disguise, and during the dance her hairband falls out and he kisses her (possibly to hide her face). Still, Kimi seems to believe he has her best interests at heart, saying that "there didn't seem to be a better solution".
