Yunyun

Yunyun (ゆんゆん) is a character of the KonoSuba series. She is a member and future chief of the Crimson Magic Clan, as well as a friend and self-proclaimed rival to Megumin.

Appearance
Yunyun is a beautiful young girl with crimson-colored eyes, a determined and gentle look, and mid-length dark brown hair tied into two twin-tails with ribbons that lie on her shoulders. Aside from being taller, with longer limbs and a more buxom and muscular body, she is very similar in appearance to Megumin.

Yunyun usually wears black robes and a cloak, similar in design to Megumin’s. She wields a silver staff and keeps a short sword sheathed around her waist. Underneath the cloak, she wears a low-cut blouse, and an ultra-short, pink miniskirt. She wears the revealing outfit, however, not because of personal preference, but because someone tricked her into thinking it is a good way to make friends.

Not visible on her character, she also has a barcode on her inner thigh.

Personality
Yunyun has a determined, caring, and gentle personality. She is also quite shy and quick to blush. She is not always honest with her feelings. While very intelligent, she often takes other people's words too literally. Aside from Megumin, she never confronts others, even when she knows they have lied to her. She is the only Crimson Magic Clan member to not display eccentric behavior, leading her to hold mixed feelings towards her own clan. However, it is hinted that Yunyun has chuunibyou tendencies like the others, such as how she worries about other people's opinions about her.

Due to being unable to make friends, Yunyun gets excited easily when someone approaches her to ask her to join their party. Unfortunately, as a Crimson Magic Clan member, her eyes glow bright red when excited, which has led to her scaring off adventurers who wanted to add her to their party as Yunyun would get excited and her eyes would glow brightly the moment someone read her party request at the guild's bulletin board.

Yunyun is also quite pessimistic, always thinking that people assume the worst of her as a consequence of the social ostracizing she experienced growing up in the Crimson Magic Village. Known as the endeared "solo hunting super rookie arch wizard," to the various adventurers around Axel, she is famous around town for rescuing beginning adventurers stuck in a pinch. However, instead of sticking around to receive thanks, she runs off as soon as she saves them, misreading the situation and crying "sorry for doing something so unnecessary!" As a result of this, it accomplishes the opposite of her desire to make friends as rumors that "there is no doubt she hates associating with people" have spread throughout the Adventurer's Guild, causing the inhabitants of the city to ignore her to "return the favor."

History
Yunyun is the daughter of the Crimson Magic Clan Village Chief. She and Megumin were classmates in their village's magic academy. Megumin was always the top student, while she was second. Due to her being perhaps the only normal person in the Crimson Magic Village, Yunyun was often ignored and forgotten, and her good nature was often taken advantage of by Funifura, Dodonko, and Megumin. After purposely delaying her leveling to stay with Megumin, Yunyun learned intermediate magic to save Komekko from monsters.

Yunyun followed Megumin to Arcanletia and then on her journey to Axel, where she once again proved herself as a powerful mage even with just intermediate magic. Once in Axel, Yunyun struggled with joining a party and was often found sitting alone in the Adventurer Guild. She joined the search for the demon Hoost, later defeating him alongside Rex's party and Megumin. After seeing how powerful Megumin's explosion magic was, Yunyun left on a journey to learn advanced magic where she briefly met Wolbach.

Once she returned to Axel, Yunyun continues to spend most of her time alone. However, she does eventually become acquainted with Kazuma's party through their adventure in the Crimson Magic Village. She also spends time in Wiz's Magical Shop and became good friends with her. After running into one of Dust's seduction schemes, she becomes friends with Vanir, though she refuses to say she is friends with Dust. Through Megumin's attempted criminal activity, she becomes friends with Iris (disguised as "Alice") and becomes better acquainted with Chris and Cecily.

She joins Kazuma's party on their journey to the frontlines of the war to confront Wolbach. She later passes the trial to become the next Crimson Magic Village Chief with the help of Aqua, Darkness, and Aegis.

Due to her great achievements, Yunyun gains the respect of the people of both Axel and her village. This slowly and slightly helps her confidence issues, which culminates in her joining the search for Aqua and then the assault on the Demon King's Castle.
