Hasebe Touka

Hasebe Touka (長谷部冬佳) is a Lily who attends Yurigaoka Girls' Academy. She is a member of Legion Sanngriðr. Previously she held the position of right BZ in the first-generation Álfheimr, although with her ability she can cover just any position needed.

She has 7 sub-skills, which is the most number of sub-skills among currently active lily. This allows her flexibility to act in every position and earned her acknowledgement as the best balancer.

History
Hasebe Touka is one of the homegrown Yurigaoka Lily. She had always been partner of Takegoshi Chihana. But as time goes, she has a growing complex towards the other members of Alfheim, especially because she doesn't score finishing shot as much as the others. Her lack of confidence, and comparing herself to Sakaizawa Naru who also plays the right side BZ position grew into feeling of envy.

During the 1st Ooiso Defensive Battle, Touka asks her friend Mashima Moyu to use the experimental 4th generation CHARM, citing she managed to use Aspid Zmei without trouble. This is despite known issues with Einherjar during the simulation stage. Moyu relented because Touka begged her, saying there's no other way for her to help Chihana other than by working in battles.

Touka managed to launch a finish shot against a gigant-class in the battle, but the feedback overload from the CHARM left her in vegetative state. This incident of Touka using an unapproved experimental CHARM adds up to the list of issues put up against Chihana after the battle.

Throughout the time Touka is unconscious, Luise Ingels visited her everyday, together with Misaka. Then after Touka regained her consciousness, both ties oath of schutzengel.

From Misaka, Touka heard that Alfheim had been disbanded, and as punishment, Chihana lose her right to form a legion, on top of being removed from her position as Sigrun. To Touka who starts blaming herself, Misaka also told her Chihana is now part of a new legion, and that Touka should join it to continue fighting alongside Chihana.

But what Touka found there is Naru already fills her position and there's no more place for her. Even with Chihana inviting, Touka refused to join Lohengrin.

Misaka then offered Touka to join her legion if she got nowhere else to go. When Touka joined Sanngriðr, she also applies to become Misaka's roommate.

Combat Style
Touka is widely considered to be the world's best balancer, due to her ability to reposition herself in the ideal place down to the centimeter in order to provide optimal support.

When Touka joined Sanngriðr, she introduced the use of the variable formation pioneered by the 1st Álfheimr, allowing the legion to take advantage of Imagawa Homare's offensive ability.
