 Shinku Bio
« Thread Started on Aug 12, 2008, 10:07pm »

Shinku is the fifth Rozen Maiden doll and the first to appear in the series. She embodies the traditional Victorian aristocrat. She is extremely demanding and can seem unappreciative of others, even though this is often not the case. Her favorite words are "tea", "servant" and "What?"; she takes pride in lecturing, slapping, and generally abusing Jun, her medium, at every opportunity. No matter how strong the emotion, Shinku rarely lets her sadness, joy, or fear show through. She is perceived as a rather angry doll, though such isn't the case. She simply wants to put out the look that she is most deserving of Alice. Shinku may seem cold, but she is highly protective of and cares deeply for her sisters and for Jun. She can be relied on for the occasional bit of parent-like wisdom. Despite her aristocratic quirks, Shinku is by far the most level-headed doll living in Jun's house. Because of her, Jun's house is filled with Rozen Maidens.

However, in the manga, her level-headedness vanishes as her emotions slip through after Suigintou pulls out her arm, and she retreats to her room before 9:00, her strict bedtime. She begins to cry over her 'imperfection' in front of Jun, suggesting that because Father put so much effort into her that she feels an obsessive need to become Alice, an emotion found in Suigintou. She is able to recover, however, and adjusts to the idea of missing an arm [though shortly after she accepts her handicap, Jun reattaches her arm with a strange burst of what seems to be the same power that created the Maidens], which may suggest the fact that she wants to unify the sisters instead of pleasing their Father, suggesting a break in the fate of the Rozen Maidens and that perhaps the Alice Game will end with more than one survivor.

Shinku does not use honorific suffixes such as "-chan," "-san," or "-kun," except when she refers to "Father" and Mitsu. Despite her relative youth amongst the Rozen Maidens, the other dolls look up to her as an older sister, and a worthy challenger in the Alice Game, something that seems uncommon in the series. Shinku does have a cute side, which is evident in her intense, almost obsessive, admiration for the puppet detective Kun Kun (She thinks they are connected by an invisible thread). In an anime episode, it's shown that she had even won a human contest and received a Kun Kun cosplay. Jun was once able to win her over during an argument by using a Kun Kun doll. Shinku hates cats saying "they are the enemies to all rozen maiden dolls" because one almost swallowed her wind up key in the past.

In combat, Shinku fights with rose petal-based attacks, making her one of the strongest dolls in battle. The rose petals are extremely versatile; Shinku can direct them to spread out for wide-ranging attacks, or group them together to use as a shield. Her other weapon is a cane, which she skillfully wields like a sword. Shinku has other special powers, such as restoring broken objects, typically Jun's bedroom windows after Suiseiseki and Souseiseki show up, with a form of time-reversing magic. Shinku was the second runner-up for both Saimoe 2005 and 2007
