==Description==
"Let's create a new world... together with everyone!"<ref>https://twitter.com/canvas2929/status/1558399704844578817</ref>

A huge fan of anime and manga, Arale is the life of the party, but her emotional fragility often brings her to the verge of tears.<ref>[https://twitter.com/ForrevaEiEn/status/1550576549010608128/photo/2 Character Profile (Translated by EiEn Subs)]</ref>

==Profile==
Arale is a very energetic person. Her all-time favorite anime are {{WP|The Familiar of Zero|Zero no Tsukaima}}, {{WP|Fairy Tail}}, and {{WP|Angel Beats!}}. In addition to her otaku interests, Arale loves singing and talking about it. Her favorite foods are spicy things (especially spicy ramen), white rice, omurice and yakisoba pan. She dislikes horror games and can't stand horror at all.<ref name="debut"></ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcCF8p9MlNg 【🟡自撮 / horror game 】チラーズアート最新作…。クリスマスだしホラゲしようかと思った過去の自分…ｸｩ〜〜!!]</ref>

Arale's favorite music genres are anison and electro swing. She also loves listening to [[Hello, Happy World!]]'s music.<ref name="miyarale1">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NueOgJNTMbI 【コラボ雑談】あられﾁｬﾝ、私たち運命共同体だよね♡【都子の部屋#1】]</ref>

She was part of the "go-home club" when she was younger. The sports Arale is good at are shot putting, handball and table tennis.<ref name="miyarale1"></ref>

Arale likes juice and juice boxes a lot. Arale often drinks fruit smoothies, and has mentioned that everyone in her family likes them. She also likes to make them in order to "suppress her cravings for sweet things" when she is worried about her weight.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x22OSztgXes 【🟡雑談 / talk 】メンバーシップ、みんなは何したい～～！？😎💖【 ゆめみた / 仲町あられ / 夢限大みゅーたいぷ 】]</ref>

==Appearance==
Arale appears as a girl of average height with long blonde hair that's tied into two pigtails; her left one being blue at the end and the right being red. Her hair also features slightly side swept bangs adorned with various clips. She also has pink eyes and is wearing a glowing yellow and black headpiece shaped like cat ears.

Her attire is generally shown to be mismatched, such as her default attire consisting of a white, sleeveless button-up crop top with an open chest cavity, adorned with a small black tie, a long fingerless black glove on her left arm, and round pink and blue wristbands on both wrists. Her lower attire consists of a high waisted yellow poofy skirt with various patterns on it, which also appears to have a built in corset along with a black ribbon on the back that reaches down to around her knees. For legwear, she wears a white thigh-high on her left leg and a red one that goes to about a little under her knee on the right, both being overlayed with baggy yellow socks. For footwear she wears all-white sneakers.

In commemoration of her 1st anniversary, Arale debuted a new outfit.

==Etymology==
'''Nakamachi''' (仲町): '''Naka''' (仲) means "close" and '''Machi''' (町) means "town".

'''Arale''' (あられ), depending on the kanji used, can mean "hail" or "dicing; small cubes." It is also a type of {{WP|Arare (food)|rice cracker}}.

==Trivia==
*Arale refers to herself using the pronoun "boku", which makes her the 3rd character in the series to not refer to herself using "watashi", "atashi", or in the third-person. (The first and second being [[Yamato Maya]] and [[Togawa Sakiko]], who use "jibun" and "watakushi" respectively.)
**Her using "boku" also makes her the first character to refer to herself using a typically masculine first-person pronoun, as all other characters use feminine or gender-neutral pronouns.
*She is the same height as [[Kurata Mashiro|Mashiro]], and she and Mashiro are tied for being the shortest of the main vocalists.
*Arale's symbols/emojis are 📢🌟.
