Urara Shiraishi (白石 うらら Shiraishi Urara) is a former witch and one of the major characters in "Yamada-kun to Nananin no Majo". She lost her supernatural abilities following the Witch Ceremony conducted by Yamada, in which he erased the powers of the original seven witches. She's currently the president of the Supernatural Studies Club.

Appearance

Shiraishi is a very pretty girl of average height with blonde hair, brown eyes, large breasts, and a slender figure. She allows her long hair to flow down her back with a pair of X-shaped ornaments protruding from behind her ears, and two large strands hanging over her shoulders that gently frame her delicate features. As noted by Miyamura, she is very attractive and likewise is adored by many boys for her exceptional beauty. Despite her status as one of the prettiest girls in Suzaku High, Urara does not wear makeup and forgoes the use of appearance enhancing products, something that is noted by both Miyabi Ito and Ryu during his time in her body. Like most girls in the series, Shiraishi is usually seen wearing the normal school attire consisting of a white collar shirt with a red and black-striped bow, and a gray plaid skirt with red stripes. In the warmer months, she wears a light tan sweater vest over her shirt, while a black jacket is provided in the winter.

She is usually seen wearing a serious expression, giving off the impression that she is indifferent to the people and events around her.

Personality

Before she swapped bodies with Ryu Yamada, Urara Shiraishi is an exceptionally brilliant student known to be cold and asocial, due to her being ostracized by the students of Suzaku High. Because of this, she is initially shown to have jaded views about the educational system and people in general, having been tricked in the past into believing people wanted to be her friends, only to be relentlessly bullied due for her beauty and intelligence. Due to this past incidents, she developed a dislike of people and blatantly refused to apply to college in the future, believing that any more attempts to establish bonds would produce similar results. Despite this she was highly respected by her teachers, who saw her as a model student, and would often praise her impeccable academic performance in their classes.

Her icy exterior slowly begins to melt away one fateful day when she falls down the stairs and kisses Ryu Yamada, accidentally swapping bodies with the school's resident delinquent due to her then unidentified witch powers. Realizing they can use this ability to help improve each others' lives, the two then form a bond that develops over the course of the series, leading both friendless teens to establish bonds with their fellow students and form the Supernatural Studies Club to explore the use of her their paranormal abilities. Her intimate bond with Ryu leads to both of them opening up to other people, prompting Shiraishi to announce her intention to go to college so long as he agrees to stay by her side. As the duo establishes bonds with their fellow club members and new friends, her cold personality mellows considerably.

While she still remains nonchalant and serious most of the time, Shiraishi occasionally shows her warmer side towards Ryu, even expressing very reserved signs of jealousy when he is with another girl. During these times she does not display any outward anger, instead manifesting her irritation by expressing indifference towards him, and making up excuses to avoid spending time with him. However, she is quick to forgive him for any suspected cheating, usually dispensing with her cold behavior once she is able to hear his explanation for herself. Although her body-swapping power could only be activated through a kiss, she outright refuses to do this with anyone else but Ryu, possibly the first implication of her deeper feelings for him. The two eventually start dating, but the process complicated by the fact that they live on opposite sides of town and she attends Cram School every afternoon. Because of their many shared experiences together over the course of time, she is very trusting towards him, even allowing Ryu to search for other witches knowing he will have to kiss them to activate their powers.

Perhaps as a result of her limited social experience, Urara is a straight-shooter of sorts, speaking very bluntly while talking to other people. This is seen most prominently when Ryu devises romantic scenarios in his mind after they agree to date, and she responds by telling him why many of his ideas are not ideal for their arrangement.

Urara is shown to have very little modesty, and she takes a very relaxed stance to nudity. She asks Ryu to take a bath for her after having swapped bodies with him, and later does not mind that Ryu can look right up under her skirt when she (actually Leona in her body) is wearing no underwear. Similarly, she does not seem aware of others' modesty; due to respectively curiosity and practical reasons, she has looked down Ryu's pants and taken off his underwear, not paying regard to his apparent embarrassment.

While normally an understanding person, Urara is shown to hold some jealousy toward other girls involved with Ryu. Most of the times she is able to keep them in check, knowing that Ryu will never betray her. However, those feelings greatly overwhelm her once she has fallen under the Provocation Power of Masamune Ichijo, causing her to become clingy and possessive toward Ryu and see Nene as her rival. Nevertheless, her understanding side and morality are stronger than her jealousy: she decides to temporary separate from Ryu for a while rather than hurting him. Also, even though she knows fully well that Ryu might once be romantically involved with Sora Himekawa, Urara wants his memories to be restored for the sake of himself.

Plot

Supernatural Studies Club's Restoration Arc

Urara walks upwards a stair case, as Ryu spots her. As he walks past her, she glares at him, causing him to trip and falls on her.[2] She later wakes up in the Nurse's Office, and notices she had switch bodies with him, leaving for class. In Class 2-B, she writes notes down solemnly and sitting as if she were wearing a skirt, while the rest of the class looks deeply unsettled by her behavior. She is then grabbed by Ryu, who drags her out of the room, as she protests that class is still going on.[3]

On the roof, she reads a book as Ryu demands her to explain why they switched bodies. Which she nonchalantly responds that she does not know, which enrages him. She stops his complaining, revealing that although neither of them know why this happened, she knows how to fix it. Explaining that all they have to do is fall down the stairs again, since that was clearly when the switch happened. Which she calls him retarded for not being able to figure it out. He insists they go to the stairs, she declines, due to not wanting to skip out on class again. He accuses her of wanting to stay this way, which she denies due to the thing between her legs freaking her out, which embarrasses him. She asks him to wait until after school, and that no one will know as long as they act normal. As he claims she has messed his image, she replies that he should deal with it, since this situation is his fault in the first place. Calling him clumsy as she leaves.[4]

She informs him it is a girl's problem and that he should not try to help.[6]

Later Urara sees Ryu and Rin together. She steps in front of Rin, asking what Ryu is doing and unintentionally takes the punch meant for Rin. Landing by some debris, she tears up from the pain and blames him for really hitting her.

The bell rings and she forgets about the situation at hand, going back to class.[7]

Afterward, they throw themselves down the stairs, but still find themselves in each other's bodies. After repeating the action several times and failing every time. As Ryu wonders aloud if they are going to be stuck like this forever, She reveals that they have not tried one thing yet, which makes him grab her by the collar, demanding to reveal it is already. Which she states that when they fell, they kissed. She says they should try it, and kisses him, who is completely embarrassed. They find themselves in their original bodies, and she smiles at him before heading home, making him blush.[8]

The next day, she sits in her chair quietly as everyone fears her because she beat up Ryu, a delinquent. She does not mind, however, since this allows her to study in peace. Ryu asks if she is the wild type, since she so nonchalantly kissed him yesterday. Completely unamused, she asks if he is "touched in the head."[9]

Abilities

Keen Intelligence: Being the second smartest student in second year.

Former Abilities

Body Swap: Urara's power as a witch is Body Swapping which is activated by a simple kiss, resulting in an instant body swap between her and the other person. It is shown that being in her own body is not necessary to perform this ability, as Ryu copying her power is able to perform multiple body swaps in row while occupying different bodies, the person's mind or soul being the main source of the power rather than the person's physical form. One major limitation of her Body Swap power is that it will not work on a person who is under the effects of another witch's power, nor does it work on her fellow witches. Additionally, this power came with the risk to her own body as seen when it is taken over by Mikoto Asuka or various stunts by other characters. According to Miyabi Ito, Urara's power is cataloged into Immediate Reaction, as it does not take time to manifest once the kiss has been administered.

Shiraishi was a member of Rika Saionji's group of Seven Witches at Suzaku High, all of whom lost their powers after Ryu wished for all witch powers to disappear from the school.
