!Sephiro Fiore
Appearing as an ordinary fortune-telling school, Sephiro Fiore is training institution for Elemental Tarot users made for the sole purpose of exterminating the Daemonia to protect people from their wrath, even though this means killing the people possessed by them. There are several branches of this organization, one of which is located in Nagataki, where our story takes place.

The main character who wants to be a fortune teller like her late mother. Her tarot is "The Sun".
----
* BadassAdorable: Even before her awakening, she rushes into a burning building with the intent to save everyone inside.
* BreakTheCutie: Sephiro Fiore goes out of their way to [[DefiedTrope defy]] this by [[LaserGuidedAmnesia altering Akari's memories of killing Fuyuna]] so she won't turn into a Daemonia in her grief. The bad news is, Akari not only regains her memories, but also learns that this is what she's expected to do from now on. And on her first day of school, no less. [[SkewedPriorities The good news is]], it's not bad enough for her to turn into a Daemonia.
* CheerfulChild: She tries to be optimistic, at least.
* CoolSword: A [[FlamingSword flaming]] rapier, to be precise, since she draws her powers from the sun.
* CuteBookworm: She knows ''a lot'' about the Tarot.
* ADarkerMe: Her magical girl self is considerably more eager to fight than her mundane self.
* DisappearedDad: In episode 5 we learn that she once tried to ask her mother about her dad, but the response she got was her mother looking really sad. [[spoiler:Episode 11 reveals that her father was a Daemonia researcher, and that Akari was conceived while he was infected.]]
* FakeMemories[=/=]LaserGuidedAmnesia: Sephiro Fiore has her memories of Fuyuna erased because she was in danger of being possessed by a Daemonia in her grief. She soon recovers them, but is no longer in danger of possession. [[HeroicBSOD That doesn't mean she takes it well]].
* FlamingHair: In her MagicalGirl form.
* FortuneTeller: And an extremely accurate one too.
* GiantWaistRibbon: She has a decent-sized one on her regular outfit.
* GreenThumb: Her presence causes plant life to grow uncontrollably, as plants needs Sun to grow.
* [[spoiler:HalfHumanHybrid: When she was conceived, her father was infected by a Daemonia, resulting in her being half-human, half-Daemonia, and that's why she can hear the voices of Daemonia.]]
* HearingVoices: Can actually hear Daemonia, which is apparently something that has never happened before. The other characters are skeptical, until it's shown that the other girls can hear Daemonia too while they're touching Akari.
** {{Telepathy}}: The Tendo sisters explain that Akari is actually sharing her thoughts when someone's touching her.
** [[spoiler:It's explained later that she can hear their voices because she's half-Daemonia herself.]]
* HeroesPreferSwords: A rapier is her weapon of choice in her Tenebrae form.
* HeroicBSOD: Goes through one when she learns the truth about what happened to Fuyuna.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Akari doesn't mind the attention she gets at home and around town, but she genuinely doesn't realize how bitter it makes Fuyuna. She also doesn't seem to notice [[spoiler:Luna's jealousy when she's around Seira]].
* IronicEcho: [[spoiler:Seira considered her to have a lack of resolve because of her ability to hear The Daemonia's voices. After Seira hesitates after finding out about her friend. Akari calls her out on it.]]
* LetsGetDangerous: Normally a bright and cheery girl, she becomes dead serious (and [[BadassAdorable deadly]]) after she transforms.
* MeaningfulName: ''Akari'' means "light", and ''taiyou'' means "sun". Keep in mind [[UsefulNotes/NamesInJapanese Japanese name order]]. It’s also double as a StellarName.
* MercyKill: How she treats the extermination of Daemonia after overcoming her HeroicBSOD.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone[=/=]TearsOfRemorse: When she realizes Fuyuna has died by her own hand and that not even her own aunt and uncle (Fuyuna's parents) remember her, Akari breaks down and apologizes over and over to her aunt.
* OlderAlterEgo: Moreso than her teammates, she seems noticably more mature while transformed (losing her normal short hair, [[GoodEyesEvilEyes huge eyes]] and [[PowerMakesYourVoiceDeep high-pitched voice]]).
* PeekABangs: Her hair covers her right eye, leaving a mysterious aura.
* PossessionImpliesMastery: She seems to immediately understand how to fight and use her powers after transforming. It's suggested this is true of all Elemental Tarot wielders, which would explain why Sephiro Fiore doesn't actually train the tarot users in combat.
* PowerIncontinence: The reason plants grow so quickly in her room; plants need the sun to grow, after all.
* PowerMakesYourVoiceDeep: Her Tenebrae form has a deeper voice.
* ThePowerOfTheSun: Which usually comes out as PlayingWithFire.
* RedOni: To the BlueOni Seira.
* TheRunaway: She runs away from Sephiro Fiore the moment she learns the truth of what they do. It doesn't last long as they drag her right back.

Initially, she sees her job as exactly that; she's doing it well and thus all is fine in the world, even if it means she has to kill the formerly-people monsters.

The series doesn't show whether that incident causes any damage to her psyche, but eventually she is driven to throw away her life to destroy her EvilCounterpart, and she does so with that very same calmness]].
* AncientOrderOfProtectors: The other magical girls are selected, but her family has been in this tarot business for a long time (her grand-auntie was an Elemental user). This is probably the reason why she takes her job lightheartedly, [[ShootTheDog for all that it entails]].

** MutualKill: What Ginka thinks will happen, [[spoiler:but later realizes that's not necessarily the case]].
* HolyHalo: Part of her MagicalGirl outfit. Turns out it's more symbolic than it originally seems.
* TheIdiotFromOsaka: As a bubbly airhead who loves food and money, she fits most of the stereotypes to a tee. Subverted in episode 5, where she shows her ability to think logically in extremely dire situations and puts much more thought into the central ethical question of the initial part of the show than either Akari or Seira.
