Linhua is a minor character in the BlazBlue series. She's Litchi Faye-Ling's assistant in her clinic in the 13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi's Orient Town.
Appearance
Linhua is a young human girl with tanned skin, navy eyes, and dark hair tied into a messy bun while her bangs frame her face. She wears a white, short-sleeved changshan with blue rims and a green vine print. Over this she wears a dark blue sash with a yellow petal print, and over this, yellow ropes that tie a navy butterfly ornament to her back. Linhua also wears two golden anklet, two golden bracelets on both wrists, black tights, and navy sandals with yellow straps.
Personality
Completely loyal to Litchi and her well-being, often going out of her way to make sure she's safe. Linhua is snide and witty, often making cheap shots at Bang Shishigami for her own amusement. Because of the damage they caused her family, Linhua despises the Novus Orbis Librarium, and is reluctant to medically help them, criticising many things about them, such as how they live at the top of the Hierarchical Cities, and their attitude towards civilians. When dealing with her patients, Linhua is no nonsense, taking a calm and serious manner.
Like Litchi, Linhua gets on well with the Kaka clan, specifically Taokaka.
Biography
Linhua was born in Kagutsuchi, and became a medical assistant for Litchi at some point between the Ikaruga Civil War and the events of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger. She attends Orient Town's new year festivities every year.
Calamity Trigger
A gentleman brought Noel Vermillion to Litchi's clinic after she was defeated by Iron Tager. Linhua went out to buy supplies, and saw Ragna the Bloodedge carrying Taokaka back to the Kaka Village. She made her way back to look after the clinic while Litchi and Noel left to go back to the Village. [1]
While she was on her own, Linhua looked after Bang after he lost to Jin Kisaragi. She took him to Dr. Han, another medical specialist, while Litchi was away.
Continuum Shift
The following day, Linhua and Litchi celebrated the new year together before the latter started to feel strange, and retreated back to the clinic. Later on, Linhua found Tager and Litchi fighting, watching as Litchi lost. Terrified and crying, Linhua approached Tager and began punching his metal hide until her fists began bleeding. On Kokonoe's orders, Tager stayed with Linhua until she calmed down. [2]
Central Fiction
It's unknown if Linhua was one of the Chosen, although it seems unlikely. Regardless, a version of her appeared inside the Embryo, fulfilling much the same role as she did in Calamity Trigger. After Mai Natsume fought Relius Clover, she and Kajun Faycott came to the clinic where Linhua helped to patch her up. [3]
Linhua is last seen in the new world Ragna created. She was running the clinic when Litchi, Kajun, and Mai dropped off a nervous Platinum the Trinity there. [4]
Powers and Techniques
Unlike a lot of the other cast in the series, Linhua has no fighting ability whatsoever, but she is a trained medic, and can take care of her patient's wounds.
Trivia
- Linhua does not appear in BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma but is mentioned by Tager in Litchi's arcade mode as a reason for her to return to Kagutsuchi.
