Rita Ainsworth

Rita (リタ エインワーズ Rita Ainsworth?) was Mashiro's roommate and handler when Mashiro was in England. She was jealous of Mashiro's art talent, and so advised Mashiro to draw manga, but she later regrets this after finding that Mashiro made a big hit on her manga, and comes to Japan to bring Mashiro back to England. After realizing Mashiro's determination, she gives up and returns to England with Mashiro's father and resumes to study art. She usually argues with Ryuunosuke.

She falls in love with Ryuunosuke and kisses him near the lips when leaving Japan, which makes him pass out. The second time Rita kissed Ryuunosuke was in Episode 24, though Ryuunosuke was more cautious. While Ryuunosuke is cold to her and keeps letting Maid handle her email, this only increases her determination and makes her constantly argue with Maid over the Internet. In the fifth novel, she visits Japan again to give Ryuunosuke Valentine's Day chocolate, and catches a chance to kiss him on the lips this time, which makes him pass out again.
