Canna Character Spotlight

You know how every country has a dialect or two of their own, almost even making the same language completely different. Japan is no different. The main language is what is spoken in Tokyo and most city-like places and another is from the Kansai region which includes famous cities like Kyoto and Osaka. It is located in the mid lower left section of Japan. While there are a few different dialects in Kansai, the most known one is from the major city Osaka and some will even call it Osaka-ben to refer to the dialect. Why am I talking about dialects? It is because a month ago or so, FKG has introduced their first character that speaks in this way, and she is the flower knight known as Canna which the Character Spotlight will be on today.

Dressed in a festival fashion and a promoter for a sexy girl house paradise, this knight loves her money! Canna(カンナ) is from the Bergamot Valley region and her attribute is striking. Her flower meaning in game is passion, admiration, solid way of life, and delusion. While she does like money, her number one priority is protecting the things she loves and that is her reason why money exists. Her preferred present is jewels. As is typical with most event girls, her stats aren't very high though some might find her ability helpful. Starting from the top, her hp caps at 9000 with a bonus of 1440 from affection, finalizing her at 10440hp. Canna's offense caps at 3600 with the same bonus of 1440, finishing her off at 5040. Defensively, she caps at 1600 with affection bonus of 600, making her 2200. Quite the heavy one, she goes at a pace of 300 speed(I blame her evolution). Her skill is a series of whacks and kicks called, Gold Makes the World go Round, doing 2.3x her dmg at a rate of 22%(32 max) to a single enemy. A pretty average skill but contains the popular word used in owarai comedy, "boke" which is used for someone who is kindve an airhead and makes stupid comments. At the end, her horn thingy also flies off on her final hit. Now her abilities; her first one increases two party members critical hits by a medium amount. To be honest, I do not know how effective this is since I do not even know what the critical hit rate may be(I guess 5%) but if you have Sakura in your team, you can try to make her go crazy with that new attack animation! Her 2nd ability increase 3 party members attack by 10% including her own. So average stats with possibly a nice ability, her main attraction is definitely her kansai accent and her evoluted boobs.

Imagine her doing the drums...

Canna's illustrated in accordance with a Japanese festival theme. She wears a red/orange happi(her coat) and bares her legs while wearing a pair of tabi and zori(traditional socks and sandals). Her dark indigo and black sash hold her traditional cloth vest and has on some short shorts for her hips. She has a kind of white hairband on her interestingly tied hair with little hoops in the back and has her own canna flower on her left chest. At her ankle,even though its yellow, those are also canna flowers as they are quite a few kinds of them. She stands a pose full of confidence with her arms up, showing her power as a blunt hitter.
Once this flower is evolved, she ditches her vest for the soft fruits that hang from her chest pop out and are barely tied together by some simple bandages.  The happi is tucked inside her now white sash and her short shorts change into bottom undergarments. She now carries her weapon in hand which is a just a horn which she probably uses for attracting customers to the Tougenkyou she works at. A necklace with a coin flies around her neck and at the tips of her happi sleeves also has these dark rings attached by purple strings. The flower on her chest is gone but instead the ones on her ankles are now the red one that she represents. Now they are also attached with these little shiny jingle bells. Traditionally hot ain't she?

What's funny is that during the month her event was going on, I found out about a Japanese comedy show called Gaki no Tsukai, which all the cast speak in kansai dialect and do crazy things. I've always thought kansai dialect was kind of a bit wierd and not something I'd try to speak but after watching that show, it's become alot more....addicting I'll say haha. All the reactions make you want to copy them and get into learning how they speak. The best of the show for me is the 24 Hours No Laughing series where they go to be trainees at a hospital or airline and survive a whole day of trying not to laugh while being attaked by all these "laughing assassins." Laughing will result with a bat to your ass! Here is one of them, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NURHghl1lI

So the Canna flower has many sorts of different vibrant looks from the constant cross breedings they go through so specifics aren't really classified. The one represented in the game is this red/orange one to the left here. Although they are not lillies, they are sometimes called canna lillies. They like to live in heat and bask in the sun, with of course plenty of moisture around. They were originally part of the tropics but due to their durability, they've spread to wherever the sun hits them most of the day. They seem really popular to keep as a plant at your home and many sites online sell them. With all their different forms, mature canna lillies can grow from 2 feet up to 10 feet tall. Their leaves have a sort of waxy texture so they are not bothered by most pests or fungus. Bugs like caterpillars may be hungry for them though.... At least they attract pretty little humingbirds to them.
Nothing much too deep but that is your information on this flower! Saying any more would just be all from wikipedia so that can be checked out on your own time. I have tried to search up its flower meaning but my results were inconsistent so I did not write anything about it.

Liked the spotlight? Hope you learned more about the character and can tell her flower apart whenever you may see one outside.
