Blue Archive, a free-to-play tactical role-playing game developed by Nexon Games for mobile, recently celebrated its fourth JP anniversary on February 4th, 2025. This anniversary has turned out to be full of exciting updates for Blue Archive fans, especially those who have been eagerly awaiting the addition of certain NPCs as playable characters to the game. One of those characters is Tsukatsuki Rio, who, following Yurizono Seia, has finally been introduced as a playable character!

The main story of Blue Archive revolves around Sensei’s journey—the player’s character and main protagonist—as they travel to various schools in Kivotos to assist the students with their problems, occasionally getting into (mis)adventures along the way.

One of the characters players can meet in this game is Tsukatsuki Rio. The student council president of Millennium Science School, Rio can be stoic and ruthless due to her tendency to value facts over emotions, a trait that puts her at odds with the other students and instills terror in them. While her approach of always doing “what’s most rational” often leads to criticism, she also has a protective and nurturing side that becomes apparent in her interactions with certain people. Due to her prioritization of strength and power over aesthetics, she is known to be obsessed with designs that are considered outdated—although one might argue that they’re merely a little “avant garde.”

Due to this combination of intriguing characteristics, Tsukatsuki Rio is having a moment on pixiv! Take a look below to see some of the best fan art featuring her!

While white or silver hair and red eyes are a combo you rarely see in real life, it’s a pretty popular combination in anime and manga. And no wonder, for the effect is absolutely stunning! The contrast between translucent silver tresses and ruby-like crimson eyes lends characters an otherworldly beauty that makes you catch your breath. Paired with an all-black or all-white outfit, the effect is likely to be even more pronounced!

Did any of these silver-haired, red-eyed beauties take your breath away?

Red eyes are a popular theme for artists here on pixiv, and it’s easy to see why: how can you not be drawn to those gleaming, ruby-colored orbs? Red symbolizes many things, most commonly heat, passion, anger, love, courage, happiness, and prosperity. As an eye color, on the other hand, it has a unique, mesmerizing quality with a hint of danger to it, almost like staring into pools of blood.

Have a look at today’s illustrations highlighting enticing crimson eyes, and get ready to be wowed!

The juxtaposition of midnight black hair and fiery vermillion eyes is a match made in heaven, so to speak. Characters with this color combo often boast an almost hypnotic glare that can either strike fear, intrigue, or both into the hearts of anyone they come across. This beautiful aesthetic certainly leaves a lasting impression.

Yuri Briar (from Spy x Family) has a pair of viper-like eyes that become even more hauntingly striking when he’s in uniform.
