Sorawo Kamikoshi

Sorawo Kamikoshi (紙越空魚, Kamikoshi Sorawo) is one of the main protagonists of Otherside Picnic.

Appearance
Sorawo is a short, 20-year-old university student. She wears glasses and is often wearing comfortable clothes, over fashionable clothing. She has brown hair and eyes. However, later in the series due to coming in contact with a Kunekune, her right eye becomes blue.

Personality
Sorawo is a shy, introverted person who would usually prefer to be alone, not wanting to be bothered and often keeps her distance to other people. There had been a time where she tried to make friends during her early years in university, attending a few parties but in the end she couldn't keep up and was too exhausting for her that she decided to be rather on her own. When forced to a conversation or meeting people for the first time, she tend to end up flustered or talk excessively. The only person who she is confortable with is when she's with Toriko who she met on the Otherside. At first, she was reluctant to follow along Toriko's search for Satsuki, after almost dying multiple times during encounters. But because of her relationship with Toriko and her wanting to explore the Otherside with her, she soon grew fond of Toriko and goes out her way to go along with her, even taking the risk to save the Palehorse Battalion soldiers.

Background
Sorawo is a second year taking the general education program in a university located in Saitama. She lives in an apartment near the said university and used to do part-time job at a convenience store to pay for her expenses before she began exploring the Otherside and bring items to Kozakura in exchange for a sum of money.

Her interest in true ghost stories and her hobby of exploring abandoned ruins rooted from desperation during her rough time back then when her mother died and both her father and grandmother decided to join a cult. Their house became a place for the cultist to gather and they would try to make her join. At one instance another religious cult tried to kidnap her, so she tried to stay away from their place and be associated with the cults as much as possible.

When she was staying in a run-down hotel, she dreamt of a red woman who asked her if she needed those people, to which she replied that she didn't. She woke up and went home with kerosene in hand, possibly to set the entire house on fire with the cultists (and maybe along with her). She waited but no one came. The police later called in, explaining the cult died by gas that settled in a depression in a mountain. Even though she ended up alone after that, she somehow managed to get to a university with a student loan her family left her without inheritance.

Although she rarely brings up her past, Sorawo was never uncomfortable to talk about it and would shrug it as normal and not a big deal, which always surprises the others.

Weaponry/Abilities
Right eye: After Sorawo's second encounter with the Kunekune, She got her right eye modified by the strange foreign body that grew out of her as a result of recognizing the Kunekune's true form. This eye serves as a filter, or a connection to the Otherside wherein she can see through a Fourth Kind or monster's appearance and reveal its "true form" allowing other objects to interact with it. During the phenomenon she encountered on Volume 1, File 4, it allowed her to shift her perception and see through each of the occuring phenomenon. Although, using it for a long time causes strain in her eye. The other function of Sorawo's right eye is to be able to see glitches as silver lights, and also works as a way to spot gates on the surface world. In the later volumes, she found that she can drive a person insane by simply focusing her right eye on them. She does refrain from doing that unless it's necessary or a life-death situation.

Makarov: Handgun that was given to Sorawo by Toriko after they met.

M4 CQBR: A gun that Sorawo "borrowed" from the Palehorse Battalion. It's equipped with an ACOG 4x Scope, a rail handguard, a vertical foregrip, and a Magpul CTR.
