Character: Karina Lyle ("Blue Rose")
Series:
Tiger & BunnyCharacter Age: 16
Canon: Would you love to see the exciting adventures of your favourite superheroes on TV, all the time? Then Sternbild City might be just for you. With a cast of eight individuals gifted with powers called "NEXT", Hero TV is all about broadcasting heroes' deeds. Like every good reality show, it even has a ranking system that rewards them points for every criminal caught or person saved, and at the end of the season whoever ranks the highest wins the title of "King of Heroes". Fighting crime and earning points is hardly all the heroes have to focus on, however. As they are pretty much superstars, there's quite a lot of work to do on the side! Interviews, photo shoots, concerts- you name it. And hey, it's a big business and there's sponsors involved, so what's giving up a bit of your life in order to please them? It's to be expected.
Karina is one of the youngest heroes of the show, and she goes by the name "Blue Rose". Her powers allow her to manipulate ice, but while she can be a capable hero, her role leans more towards that of an Idol. And it's no surprise, really, considering that she herself agreed to become a hero only in order to realize her true dream: to become a singer. Like every teenager, Karina struggles to adjust between who she really is, and who people expect her to be. Somewhat stubborn and definitely emotional, she sometimes lets her feelings get the best of her. While she gets plagued by doubts and may need a push in the right direction from time to time, Karina is ultimately someone who knows what she wants and speaks her mind freely, refusing to take crap from anyone. All in all, she’s an honest kid who can be harsh and somewhat abrasive at times, but in the end, her heart is in the right place.
(Note: Blue Rose's sponsor is "Pepsi NEXT", and she has a catchphrase: "My ice may be a bit COLD but your crime has been put on HOLD!")

Hold on a minute, is this really the right place? I thought the concert was going to be held in an auditorium, not in a farmland right in the middle of nowhere! The company never mentioned any of this- do the sponsors really want me to sing in this sort of place? If it's singing I can do it anywhere, but still, this... Just take a good look around! There's a giant squid on top of a silo, see? A giant squid! That's really too weird. Honestly! The location isn't even the biggest problem- the audience is! Aren't these the sort of people we'd fight against? They look like a bunch of villains wearing disgusting costumes. And they seem more concerned about human flesh and brains than music and advertisement. I get that we're supposed to bring life back to this place, but isn't that being way too literal?!
I thought this concert was just to spice things up a bit! What kind of slogan is "Pepsi NEXT, so good it will revive the dead" anyway? Really now, nobody is going to buy it if it's associated with zombies. It's so gross- what are the sponsors thinking?! And I'll tell you now, if the audience is really made up of the undead, there better be backup security or there's no way I'm going to go out on the stage! It's not like I can handle all of them on my own, and I'm already risking my life when fighting crime, I don't want to risk it even when I'm performing. What kind of hero dies eaten by a crowd of zombies?! That would definitely be lame. Not to mention way, way too morbid.
Look at them, they're not even cheering. All they keep saying is brains, brains and brains! But I guess I can't really blame them for being so single-minded, this camp is so dull, I bet they all died of boredom. There's pretty much nothing exciting to do here, is there? Jeez, whoever manages this camp is an idiot! They really have no idea what young people like. It looks like they tried so hard with that carnival too, but who would be excited about one with so few attractions? Honestly, it's going to take a miracle to revive this place, not a concert.
Oh, well, at least they had the decency to organize this. Ugh, This is probably these people's once-in-a-lifetime chance at something fun, isn't it? All right- these people give me the creeps, but there's no way I'm going to do this half-heartedly. Miracle or not, I'm going to give this my all. Time to go on stage! Hello everyone, thank you for waiting! Are you ready for something cool? It's time to go NEXT...! One, two three-! My ice may be a bit COLD but your crime has been put on HOLD! Prepare yourself for the best brain freeze of your life!
