~ Swim Swim |
Ayana Sakanagi, better known as Swim Swim, is a major antagonist in Magical Girl Raising Project. She is a murderous seven-year-old child who kills many other magical girls. She looks up to Ruler and treats her words as law. She was eventually defeated and killed by Ripple for good.
She is voiced by Inori Minase in Japanese and Bryn Apprill in English.
Biography[]
Ayana is a young girl who admires princesses, notably those who command others. She grew interested in the social game Magical Girl Raising Project and played it before Fav transformed her into her Magical girl icon Swim Swim. After her first transformation, Swim Swim was met by her mentor Ruler, who she immediately grew fond of due to her orders of obeying every word, viewing her as a princess. Respecting those instructions, Swim Swim became a member of Ruler's team alongside Tama and the Peaky Angels.
After the game is altered to where the Magical girl with the least amount of Magical Candies would be disqualified, Team Ruler took many actions to ensure they will not end up last. After Nemurin is announced in last place and had until midnight to use her powers, she visited Ayana's dream, showing her watching Ruler riding in a carriage during a parade. Nemurin encourages Ayana that instead of looking up to a leader, it would be more fun if she became a leader. Realizing that there could only be one leader, Swim Swim thought of a plan to usurp Ruler as the leader of their team. During the team's next mission to steal the Magical Candies from Snow White, while Tama and the Peaky Angels distract La Pucelle, Ruler freezes Snow White in place while Swim Swim makes the exchange of stealing Snow White's Magical Candies. However, Swim Swim instead steals only half of Snow White's Candies and spreads them equally among the Magical girls except for Ruler, resulting in her death of being in last place. After disposing Ruler's corpse within a park, Swim Swim took over as the leader of the team.
As the new leader, Swim Swim sought to serve as the best example of the others in her team. When Fav introduced the magical items, Swim Swim buys the most expensive item, an invisibility cloak in exchange for twenty-five years of her life. She trades the cloak with Tama, who bought the magic-enhanced halberd, and names it after her former mentor, Ruler. Afterwards, she sought to take out the more stronger Magical girls before they become a bigger threat, most notably Weiss Winterprison and Calamity Mary. When Sister Nana began sending out requests to the other Magical girls to cease fighting, Swim Swim saw this as an opportunity to eliminate her and Winterprison. When they arrived at the temple the team was using as a hideout, Swim Swim had the Peaky Angels take the form of Sister Nana to wound her with a knife stab. But Winterprison manages to trap the team in generated rocks, resulting in her killing Yunael. Swim Swim uses Ruler to slice off Winterprison's arm before doing the same to Minael, resulting in her death from blood loss. Both Team Swim Swim and Sister Nana were left devastated.
Blaming herself for Yunael's demise, Swim Swim tells the traumatized Tama and Minael that Calamity Mary would be dealt with more cautiously, knowing that Mary was far dangerous. After Mary initiates a mass disaster by attacking a busy highway, Swim Swim saw this as their opportunity and has the group head over there to attack any other Magical girls who went to rescue the trapped people on the road. When Ripple and Top Speed fought against Calamity Mary, Swim Swim hid in her plan to ambush and finish off the survivor. Once Ripple kills Mary, Swim Swim emerges and stabs Top Speed in the back with Ruler. Enraged, Ripple attacks Swim Swim only for the latter to retreat. When Fav decides to bring down the number of Magical girls to four, Swim Swim sought to kill off the remaining Magical girls outside of her team.
With assistance from Minael, Swim Swim tracks down the location of Hardgore Alice's human form, Ako Hatoda, and ambushed her on the way to school, knowing she wouldn't transform in front of many people. After finishing her off, Swim Swim sought to next track down Cranberry. That night, the team snuck into the forest towards Cranberry's cabin. But unaware of her superior powers, Cranberry wounds Tama and kills Minael. Cranberry attacks Swim Swim and uses her sound manipulation to knock out Swim Swim, exposing her human form. Before she could kill Ayana, Tama kills Cranberry by making a hole form through her body. Knowing of one of Ruler's rules (the Magical girls should never reveal their true identities), Swim Swim kills Tama, albeit showing regret for doing so.
From Cranberry's corpse, Swim Swim finds Fav's terminal and takes it with her. Now that Cranberry was dead, Fav offers Swim Swim to be his new partner to continue the death games. Due to her young age, Swim Swim didn't understand the purpose of his proposition and declined. Angered, Fav reveals Swim Swim's weakness to a vengeful Ripple, who contacts Swim Swim for a duel. She agrees and the two meet by a dam. Using the last Healing Medicine to strengthen her abilities, Swim Swim gains the upper hand and becomes impossible for Ripple to hit, with Swim Swim managing to gouge out Ripple's left eye and later cut off her left arm. However, knowing of Swim Swim's weakness to loud sound, Ripple uses the blood from her sliced-off appendage to blind Swim Swim before using Calamity Mary's flashbang grenade to burst in front of Swim Swim, exposing her unconscious human form. With the last of her strength, Ripple impales Ayana with her katana in the chest, killing her for good.

However, she shows some regret doing so, as she cried after killing them both.
