[edit] Appearances
Prior to the release of the Galaxy Angel II game on 22 June 2006, Kahlua (and by extention Tequila) was among the new characters to be announced by Broccoli. Her voice was first heard on 2 cds released shortly before the game's release date. The first contained her image songs and a short message from Kahlua (and Tequila) herself. The second was a duet cd with her predecessor Ranpha Franboise which featured two duets, two question and answer sessions and a mini-drama.
She is one of the first of the new Angel Troupe encountered in the game, and acts as a flirty foil to the (generally) more reserved members of the Rune Angel troupe. She is also quite hot-tempered, compared to the patient Kahlua.
Besides the game, she is also a major character of the ongoing Galaxy Angel II manga and in the currently airing Galaxy Angelrune- Galaxy Angel II, an anime based on GAII.
[edit] Characteristics
[edit] Personality
Contrasting with Kahlua's kind, gentle and carefree nature, Tequila is seductive, hot-tempered and rough. Where Kahlua uses first names and honorifics when speaking to other characters, Tequila often uses none at all and refers to others using their family names (e.g. Kahlua refers to Kazuya as "Kazuya-san" while Tequila calls him "Shiranami").
She can be quite playful with Kazuya, as his embarrassed reactions to her flirting amuse her greatly. Also, unlike Kahlua, Tequila can get drunk since alcohol (which turns Kahlua into her) has no effect on her.
Despite her seemingly harsh attitude, though, she is very fiercely loyal to the people she cares about. She is also very protective of the more trusting and less cynical Kahlua.
[edit] Trivia
- Kahlua and Tequila's split personalities and use of an outside substance to trigger the transformation brings to mind the famed Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde story. However, while not as polite and more rambunctious than Kahlua, Tequila is nowhere near as depraved as Hyde was.
