* GodlikeGamer: Her anime debut was her playing a game of Go and quickly earning her 5th consecutive student championship victory. Then she was asked if she will aim for a 10th consecutive victory as a 7th grader (something that has never been achieved before), and she said that she is done with Go professionally and no one would be able to match her even in 10 years and subsequently announces her retirement, stating that she will challenge another path (which was the idol path).



* MeaningfulName: Sion is a unisex name, which fits her tomboy personality. Is also based on the seventh note of the Solfège scale (Si). Also the japanese pronunciation of her name (Shion) can be a reference to "Shion-iro" which is a pale purple color or violet (the color of asters flowers), this may refer to her idol type and theme color.



* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: She casually adds yojijukugo (four-character idiom) to her sentences, which appear on the screen most of the time when she does.



* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Official translation for her name is Sion but English fans tend to spell it as "Shion" thanks to the fansubs.



* MeaningfulName: Her name is based on the first and last note of the Solfège scale (Do).



* AmbiguousGenderIdentity: Even though the show says Reona is a boy, [[SupernaturallyValidatedTransPerson only girls can get pritickets and go to PriPara and Reona does]], even when [[spoiler:DanPri was announced in series]] Reona didn't get confused about gender or anything. [[spoiler:Also in one episode Reona was dressed as a princess and was questioned by Hibiki why "he" dressed as a girl and "he" replied "This is who I am"]].

"He" never showed discomfort with being referred as a girl, actually "he" looked very happy with the kids calling "him" "onee-san" (big sister) in one episode. [[spoiler:Also in one episode Reona was dressed as a princess and was questioned by Hibiki why "he" dressed as a girl and "he" replied "This is who I am"]]. In "his" duet with Dorothy have the line "we’ll always be each other’s sister", and since the episode this song debuted [[spoiler:there hasn’t been a single reference to Reona being a "boy".]] Also considering Reona shy personality "he" wouldn't be correcting people every time they refer to "him" as a boy. Also Reona [[UsefulNotes/JapanesePronouns uses "watashi" (female pronoums) refering to "himself", and while in anime isn't unusual for girls (Dorothy) to use "boku" (male pronoums) it is unusual for boys to use watashi]]. But that all said Idol Time Pripara and Idol Land Pripara show that [[spoiler:"he" (and Hibiki as well, but Hibiki is canonically non binary) can also enter Danpri]] which gives even more ambiguity to this.



* MeaningfulName: His name is based on the second note of the Solfège scale (Re).



* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Official translation is "Reona", but thanks to the fansubs is often referred to by English fans as "Leona".
