Character:
Character Name: Chris Yukine
Canon: Senki Zesshou Symphogear
Canon Point: Post-AXZ
Digimon Partner: Bombmon > Missimon > Sparrowmon. Missimon is an acerbic, bitter character who doesn't see much merit in doing anything. Though she's just a Baby II, she's highly cynical and has a depressing outlook on the world due to not having evolved yet despite having been around for a while. She eyes everyone with suspicion, and doesn't trust easily. Even after meeting Chris, she'll be skeptical of the whole partner thing and won't easily believe that the threats facing them can be stopped.
History: Chris Yukine is the daughter of Masanori and Sonnet M. Yukine, who lost their lives giving aid in a war that also left Chris orphaned. Kidnapped by a human trafficing ring, Chris was subjected to all sorts of testing as well as terrible physical abuse, and forced to undergo hard labor. When she was freed from this, she developed a distrust of adults and a desire to change the world by force; feelings that were taken advantage of by the woman called Finé, who continued her abuse and gave her the power to don an armor called "Symphogear" with the power of a relic called Ichaival. However, she was shown the error of her ways, and ultimately worked to stop Finé and work with the members of the Mobile Disaster Response Corps. (later renamed S.O.N.G.), who accepted her into their ranks and allowed her to make up for her past crimes.
Chris's relationship with her new comrades was rocky, and she struggled to adjust to having people at her side and the new school she was going to. Ultimately, in the crisis perpetrated by the organization F.I.S. and an insane scientist named Dr. Ver, she came close to abandoning her comrades in order to wipe out one of the remnants of her past crimes and stop them herself without putting them in danger. Ultimately, her senior, Tsubasa, showed her the follies of this decision, and guided Chris back to the group. Chris rejoined her comrades, and together with the reformed Symphogear users of F.I.S., they defeated their real enemy, a mad scientist named John Wayne Vercingetorix, and his ambitions.
Some months later, a new crisis emerged in the form of an ancient alchemist named Carol Malus Dienheim, and her artificial servants, the Auto-Scorers, who sought to "dissect the world" as revenge for Carol's father's execution at the hands of an intolerant society. In this conflict, Chris struggled with being a role model to two of the younger former F.I.S. members, Shirabe and Kirika, as well as her fears of conflict taking the lives of everyone she cared about. However, she found strength in her bond with them, and came to terms with it. Eventually, she and the forces of S.O.N.G. were able to defeat Carol, and Chris returned to her relatively more peaceful life as a student.
In the fourth season, Chris is faced with her past literally coming back to haunt her, as she encountered an old friend of her family named Sonia, who Chris had blamed for the accident that killed her parents. In turn, Sonia blamed Chris for taking a drastic measure to save her younger brother, causing him to lose his leg. Nevertheless, Chris was able to reconcile with both of them, and find her conviction to face the latest crisis: a group of alchemists, led by an ancient artificial being named Adam Weishaupt. After allying with his disenfranchised underlings, Chris and her friends were not only able to stop Adam from attaining the power of a god, they were able to save their friend, Hibiki, from a total loss of control.
CRAU?: N/A
Personality: Chris is, on the surface, a very hot-blooded young woman, quick to anger and just as quick to start a fight (though that lessens as the series goes on). She's also passionate and driven, in all the ways that are admirable and potentially self destructive. This manifests in the ways she tends to react to people and in battle. Chris doesn't suffer fools, so she tends to respond to idiocy with anger, sometimes in the form of more extreme aggravation, and other times in the form of over the top yelling. In battle, she can be the most aggressive of fighters, and the lyrics of her songs are a fair degree edgier than those of her comrades. Her manner of speaking is typically coarse, and even being her friend isn't enough to spare you her wrath sometimes, though she never takes it out on someone violently (barring the occasional thrown shoe) unless a person has done something unforgivable.
That's not all there is to Chris, however. As a trauma survivor, who not only lost her parents in an armed conflict, but suffered horrific physical and sexual abuse at the hands of her captors and her abusive role model, Chris can be heavily guarded. It took a good deal of time before she was able to truly open up and trust her new friends, and even then, she was driven to make significant self sacrifice she felt she had to make. This has lessened over time, and as of the third season's finale, she has found that she can be more open, honest, and even a role model to other people. She's even willing to readily use their given names, where before she simply used family names or things like "you" or "idiot". However, this has been with a specific group of people, so new social groups may not be nearly as easy for her to adjust to. At the same time, other people who are survivors or who have had to fight for a living would be people she'd be quicker to open up to, and she'd be less guarded in discussing her past in general, as a result of wanting to do whatever she can to avoid such things happening again.
In terms of other fears and anxieties, Chris has always feared being alone, and while one might dismiss her as a simple tsundere, her behavior is ultimately due to her contradictory tendency to keep people at arms length while simultaneously wanting better for them. She also tends to shirk at physical intimacy, and reacts dramatically to unwanted touching. Close friends can get away with it with little more than yelling, but if it's a stranger, she'll react with anger and fear. Public displays of affection can trigger her ire as well, and she's very repressed when it comes to acting on her own desire in this way.
For all her loudness and aggressiveness, Chris is ultimately a good person. She strives for justice, and has made several self-sacrificing actions across the seasons in the name of the greater good. When she discovered that her actions in the first season had resulted in the deaths of numerous people, she was horrified, and has since sought to atone. I've talked already how she wants to be a role model, as shown when she's attempted to take the "senior" role with others and be a good role model to other girls that are younger than she is. Even Finé, who was responsible for much of the misfortune in her life, occupies a complicated and important place in her heart, and she can't bring herself to fully hate the woman despite having every reason in the world to do so. And for how often friends like Hibiki frustrate and anger her, she's one of the people Chris would give absolutely anything to protect.
Chris is also smarter, more clever, and altogether more put-together than people might assume from her behavior. Despite being brash and hotheaded, she consistently gets high marks in school, and manages to keep a clean and comfortable apartment. She's self sufficient (even if she might be out of shape in some areas), and knows how to act like a professional agent of S.O.N.G. That being said, she also has awful table manners, and has a not-so-hidden love of childish things, like sweets and magical girl shows. This proves that Chris, like anyone else, is a creature of contrasts.
