- Jananda Island Arc
Lore & Background
Tonari first appears when Hayase manipulates her into luring Fushi onto a prison ship bound for Jananda Island. In gladiatorial combat on Jananda, Hayase reveals she murdered Parona and impersonated her, infuriating Fushi. Overpowered, Fushi is saved by Tonari's intervention. When Nokkers attack, killing Tonari's allies, Fushi destroys them and abandons Hayase at sea. Tonari later dies, joining Fushi's spirits. Decades later, after Fushi awakens in the modern era, he revives his eleven spirit companions—including Tonari—and she is among those who leave with him at the series end.
