History
"What is it? A female swordsman isn't so rare, is it?"

- Anita

Anita is a swordswoman who trained under Roundia Haia in Kanakan and received a Falcon Rune as proof of her training. Valeria, another student, became Anita's rival when they entered through Roundia's gates on the same day and Anita swore to surpass her in skill.

Following her apprenticeship, Anita began a journey of training, but had difficulty finding opponents and would join the New State Army after being impressed by its leader. Known for her beauty, she holds a fondness for liquor and, when drunk, is a very friendly person. In fact, it is said that although she and Valeria may be close rivals when it comes to fighting, when it comes to the opposite sex, Anita holds an overwhelming lead.

Despite her foibles, when she stepped on to the battlefield, Anita fought as fiercely as anyone and contributed to a number of victories for the New State Army. After the Dunan Unification War, Anita travelled to the Toran Republic to challenge Valeria, but after fighting to a draw, she continued her journey.

Trivia

 * Anita's ending changes depending on whether or not the player recruits Valeria.
