Relationships
Fans

Lore
- Karu's household's estate lands occupies 130,000 square metres.
Miscellaneous
- Karu made a stargazy pie during a cooking stream. The smell from the ingredients was so bad that a neighbour reported to the police on suspicion of her hiding a corpse. She ended up helping the policeman that arrived at her house make a bilibili account.

- Ever since the incident with the police, people joke that her pose of lifting up her skirts looks like she is hiding a corpse with a sheet.
Lore
If not born to an aristocratic household, a girl as naturally foolish as Karu would already have been deceived away by strange gentlemen everywhere in just a few words. No, aside from those guys assumed to abduct her, perhaps even inexperienced young men who want to secretly pick some flowers from her flower field could twist Karu in... circles.
Outside of the tedious aristocratic lessons, Karu would huddle in corners and gently mutter to animals, occasionally holding a gardenia and shouting loudly that she had grown the sturdiest jasmine. This young girl attended by numerous servants knew very little about the surrounding world, so she was completely bewildered by the mockery spoken about her in low voices:
"She's ignorant of the ways of the world, and often says weird things." ...The servant is trembling in fear and unwilling to reply. Maybe a friend of equal status can fix her problem? With such a goal in mind, after several months of hard work on how to position the livestream webcam, Karu has officially embarked on her debut journey. Show more
