Rei Miyamoto

Rei Miyamoto is one of the main female characters in the anime Highschool of the Dead.

Brief description Rei is a 17-year-old second-year high school student and a member of the school's sojutsu (spear arts) club. She is tall, athletic, and has distinctive long orange-brown hair usually worn in a high ponytail with two long strands framing her face.

Personality

• Outgoing and energetic
• Very emotional and quick-tempered
• Can be jealous and possessive (especially regarding relationships)
• Shows strong loyalty to her friends
• Has a tendency to act before thinking

Background & relationships

• Former childhood friend and ex-girlfriend of the main protagonist, Takashi Komuro
• Currently in a relationship with Hisashi Igou at the start of the story (though this changes quickly)
• Has a complicated love-hate dynamic with Takashi that develops throughout the series

Combat role Rei is one of the most skilled fighters in the group. She primarily wields a long spear (later upgraded/modified versions) and is highly effective at close-to-mid-range combat against zombies, thanks to her sojutsu training.

In short: Rei is the passionate, fiery, spear-wielding orange-haired girl who used to date the main character and has a very expressive (and sometimes dramatic) personality.
