Wang Yujia
Wang Yujia (王雨嘉) is a Lily who attends Yurigaoka Girls' Academy. She is a member of Team Hitotsuyanagi.
Personality[edit | edit source]
Yujia is a quiet girl who often comes across as unemotional. She has little confidence in herself, and is easily cowed into silence by those more assertive than her. But she is also principled and at times displays her strong will, such as when she sternly told her sister Lifen "I won't let anyone get one of my friends hurt. Not even if that person is my own blood sister."[1]
History[edit | edit source]
Yujia was born in Reykjavik, Iceland[2]. She formerly attended Heimskringla, a Garden in Sweden that is one of the world's strongest and a major contributor to the defense of Europe, from a young age. They are said to train the finest BZ Lilies in the world.
Heimskringla follows a policy of cultivating Lilies from a young age so that they're skilled combatants by the time their Magi capacity has hit its peak. They also practice an unusual mixture of the "instructor approval" and "top legion" legion systems, where Lilies are normally allowed to gather and fight in legions of their choice, but the finest of Heimskringla's Lilies are handpicked by the staff for an elite task force—Legion Chariot Gefjon—when particularly dangerous operations need to be undertaken. The strength of this task force is Heimskringla's highest priority as a Garden, and in order that each Lily is prepared to be part of Chariot Gefjon should they be selected for it, every legion is required to use the same basic formation.
The Wang sisters—Yujia, Wang Ruixi, and Wang Lifen—were the treasures of Heimskringla, which had focused on their training since kindergarten and, once all three were strong enough to be part of Chariot Gefjon, intended to launch ambitious expeditions and destroy a number of S-class Huge nests throughout the European continent[3].
Because of this, Yujia's decision to transfer to Yurigaoka for high school very nearly caused a diplomatic incident.
Stage plays[edit | edit source]
At an unspecified point prior to the start of their first year of high school, Yujia transferred out of Heimskringla and came to Yurigaoka, though she had not yet formally become a student. She met Kuo Shenlin, became friends with her, and the two of them requested to share a dorm room in high school[4].
In Assault Lily: League of Gardens, Yujia agrees to be part of Riri's new legion when asked, and Shenlin joins as well, the two fighting together at Riri's side. Shenlin is firm with Yujia when she fails to have confidence in herself, but also supportive of her.
Anime/game[edit | edit source]
Bouquet[edit | edit source]
After arriving at Yurigaoka, Yujia was placed in the same dorm room as Kuo Shenlin, a Lily of the same age who had attended Yurigaoka since kindergarten.
In Assault Lily: Bouquet, when Hitotsuyanagi Riri begins recruiting members for the legion that would later become Team Hitotsuyanagi, she comes to Shenlin's dorn room to invite her, and Shenlin accepts. Riri invites Yujia at the same time, and when Yujia expresses uncertainty about whether she's good enough to be in a legion, Shenlin tells her that she shouldn't join if she lacks the confidence. Yujia immediately agrees to do as Shenlin says and decline the invitation. This upsets Riri, who insists on at least seeing what Yujia can do, whereupon Shenlin asks to choose the method with which Yujia can demonstrate her skill.
Shenlin instructs Yujia to snipe her from a kilometer away with ten shots, informing Shirai Yuyu that "if she's accurate, I can dodge"[5]. Encouraged by Riri, Yujia lands every shot, even compensating for the fierce wind. Shenlin then admits to Yuyu that she was jealous of Yujia's family reputation and talent, and upset by her lack of confidence. Both Lilies decide to join Team Hitotsuyanagi. Shenlin and Yujia then begin to grow closer to each other, with Yujia telling Shenlin that she was insensitive and never considered how Shenlin must feel after losing her home.
Last Bullet[edit | edit source]
Blue Strike of the Soulmates[edit | edit source]

I… very nearly squandered the words my brothers sacrificed themselves to give to me.
No longer will I lie to myself about how I feel.
Yujia-san. You are, and have always been—
My soulmate.—Kuo Shenlin, Blue Strike of the Soulmates, scene 4-3
When Shenlin hears of strange swarms of peaceful Huge descending upon Kyushu, she convinces Team Hitotsuyanagi to go there and aid the local naval garrison. Recognizing the similarity of events in Kyushu to her brothers' letters to her, Shenlin searches for the leviathan Huge that killed her brothers and attacks it alone, desperate for revenge. She is nearly killed by its counterattack and is saved by Yujia and Tazusa.
After regaining consciousness, Shenlin runs away to launch another desperate solo attack before the leviathan Huge devastates Kyushu with its massive laser, but Yujia finds her and begs her not to throw her life away. Shenlin remembers the final letter from her brothers, where they hoped she would live on and find her soulmate, and realizes that soulmate is Yujia. She vows to never leave Yujia's side again.
Using a particle cannon built by Moyu and their Rare Skills, Shenlin and Yujia disable the leviathan Huge's laser. Team Hitotsuyanagi finishes it off with the Neunwelt Tactic, saving Kyushu and avenging Shenlin's brothers together.
Family[edit | edit source]
Yujia's family is ethnically Chinese, but culturally Icelandic.
Her father, Wang Yuxuan (王宇軒), is a scholar. Long ago, he worked for GEHENA, but resigned due to unease when rumors of their dark deeds began to spread following the Antarctic Campaign. His specialty is the applied use of Magi to fight the Huge, and his research is sponsored by several CHARM manufacturers.
Her mother, Zhang Fenghuang (張鳳凰), is a former Lily who was one of Heimskringla's finest. Her vicious fighting style made her terrifying upon the battlefield, but since her retirement, she's become a gentle lady who is better known for her beauty.
One of her older brothers, Wang Haoyu (王皓宇), is a soldier in the United Nations Defense Force.
Her other older brother, Wang Zihan (王梓涵), is an engineer who works for the Yggdrasil Corporation.
Yujia's older sister, Wang Ruixi (王瑞希), is an active 2nd-year Lily at Heimskringla who they have trained as a commander. She's famously stern, but from a place of kindness. She is known for her love of movies.
Yujia's younger sister, Wang Lifen (王莉芬), is a 3rd-year Lily in Heimskringla's junior high school division. Due to her uncommon rare skill, Phantasm, she is famous and popular among Lily otaku despite her youth. She's also known to be somewhat of a brat[3].
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Yujia's hobbies are collecting cat-themed goods, drawing, and making aqua terrariums.
- Yujia's favorite food is fish.
- Yujia is scared of ghosts and other supernatural phenomena[6].
- Yujia still wears the Heimskringla school uniform, even at Yurigaoka.
- Yujia's character design has gone through a few iterations. In Move Out, Team Hitotsuyanagi!, she had semi-long hair on only the left side, wore no hair ornaments, and her uniform looked quite different. Her hairstyle changed slightly in ARMS. Since Yujia's stage debut in Assault Lily: League of Gardens, her design has stayed consistent.
- The characters in Yujia's name mean "rain" (雨) and "praise" (嘉). Her surname, Wang, means "king."
- Wang is one of the most common surnames in the world, so it's difficult to guess which architect it may be a reference to, but Wang Da-hong and Wang Shu are two possibilities.
