22 Richie works for the NCCA (Nova City Crime Agency) and is attached to the A.C.D. task force. Press coverage describes her as an overachiever and a "tough cookie," and she was one of the three playable characters hands-on in the January 2026 CBT alongside Captain and Taffy. NetEase confirmed her as part of the four-character launch roster during the September 2025 official website update, alongside the Captain, Taffy, and Seymour.

44 Overview

66 Richie is Ananta's answer to the "by-the-book cop who also has a night life" archetype. Official blurbs describe her as someone who fights crime by day and grinds at night to achieve her dreams, and note that it is hard to tell whether she is a pro or simply not all there mentally. She shows no mercy to criminals or even suspects, which is a running characterization across summaries and community descriptions. That steel combined with her overachieving reputation makes her a major boon to the A.C.D. team.

99 Like every other main Ananta charactershe is an Esper with supernatural abilities, and her monster-coded physical features (horns, small tail) reflect that. NetEase's own channels have called her the "burger girl," a nickname pointing at the fact that she always cleans her plate when food is served on the job, a small humanizing beat inside an otherwise no-nonsense personality.

1111 Combat

1212

1313 Richie fights with relentless combo attacks and finishing moves. Her style is aggressive and direct. In the helicopter sequences shown during the TGS 2025 gameplay trailer, she can also snipe targets from the air, with press coverage noting that she can be positioned as a squadmate in a sniper position aboard a nearby helicopter, ready to support whoever is running the ground fight.

1515 that she uses different classes of guns: handguns for close-quarter work and sniper rifles for ranged support. That makes her unusually versatile inside Ananta's 4-character party, where most revealed members commit to a single range band. A Richie slot can flip between melee combos, mid-range pistol pressure, and long-range sniping depending on what the party setup needs.

1717 Squad Perspective and Switching

1818

1919 Ananta's TGS 2025 trailer coverage specifically highlighted Richie as the demonstration of the game's perspective-switching feature: with the Captain pinned indoors at gunpoint, control swapped to Richie on a hovering helicopter, who took the shot through the window to clear the threat. This is one of the clearest show moments the game has given for its 4-character party system and dynamic character swapping, and it is built around Richie's sniping specifically rather than Taffy's melee or the Captain's swinging.

2121 Job: Police Officer

2222

2323 Through the Identity Systemplaying as Richie lets you patrol Nova Cityrespond to calls, search suspects, administer breathalyzer tests, and make arrests. Her XP comes from law-enforcement activities rather than combat progression alone, and she can also investigate through the NCCA's resources. This turns a routine patrol loop into a light immersive-sim mode sitting on top of the main story.

2626 Story and Relationships

2727

2828 Richie shares the core A.C.D. party with the Captain, Taffy, and Seymour, with each of them representing a different institution Nova City relies on: Richie is the NCCA badge, the Captain is the Directorate's on-the-ground lead, Taffy is an informal courier network, and Seymour is the outside hacker contact. Inside that group Richie sits as the hard-edged enforcer, a productive counterbalance to Taffy's slacker-hero energy and to Seymour's low-visibility hacker persona.

2929

3030 Her after-hours "grinding toward her dreams" subplot hints at a personal arc that sits outside her NCCA day job. What those dreams actually are has not been spelled out in any verified material, and is one of the notable story threads left open going into later betas.

3232 Appearance

3434 Per the Ananta entry, Richie has short pink hair tied into a ponytail with two longer strands near her ears, a large black hair clip in the left side of her bangs, two small light blue horns on her forehead, and a medium-small dragon tail at her rear. That monster-girl silhouette reinforces her Esper status while staying compatible with a contemporary police outfit. Promotional art has consistently shown her in urban clothing with a clear law-enforcement coding.
