She goes to a high school in Japan where she becomes popular, due largely to her looks. Due to her mixed lineage, Alya is fluent in both Japanese and Russian, a fact which she uses to full advantage when dealing with the main male protagonist of the story, her classmate Masachika Kuze. Although Alya maintains a cold exterior, she gradually develops feelings for the unmotivated and constantly sleepy Masachika, who she complains about while making flirtatious comments toward him in Russian.
