Minamoto Rikka (源 立夏) is a Japanese high school student.

Appearance
Rikka has a cute appearance overall, her hair is cedar brown, long up to her back, and wavy at the end, ample bust, slender waist, big flint grey eyes, and a soft featured face.

History
Rikka was riding the same bus with Amakawa Haruto and Endo Suzune and died at the same time as them, while riding the bus it was said that she constantly stole glances of Haruto, but a little more discreetly compared to Suzune. She used to live in Tokyo's Bunkyo district and was 15 years old at the time of the accident, after her death that day she reincarnated into Liselotte Cretia, daughter of the Duke Cretia from the Kingdom of Galarc.

The two people Rikka used to hang out with the most were her cousin Fujiwara Mafuyu, to whom she refered to as fuu-chan, and Mafuyu's best friend Chizuru, to whom she used to call chii-san. These two used to be Haruto's classmated and ended un being the reason why Rikka knew about him and the cause of their first encounter. When Rikka went to visit Mafuyu and Chizuru during their cultural festival she ended up being picked up by a group of boys also in attendance, Rikka didn't know how to get rid of her unwanted company but Haruto who was passing boy helped her out of her trouble. By Liselotte's story this event was what led to Rikka referring to Haruto in her head as Amakawa senpai despite their lack of a real kouhai-senpai relationship. A non-canon short story that accompanied volume 8 that describes a similar series of events is often mistaken by the tale of Rikka's and Haruto's first meeting, but inside that what if story Haruto and Rikka are just two years apart in oppossition to how Liselotte said in volume 17 that Rikka was 15 at the moment of her death while Haruto was 20, evidence of the impossiblity of the short story to be one that tells real events.
