 Comics Reaching For The Stars: Friendship

"Besides "love" and "hate", there's also "should" and "shouldn't". If everyone were selfish like you, the world would have ended long ago! I don't expect you to agree with my point of view. Although we are partners, I won't force you to clean. I don't "love" it, but I "should" do it. Everyone's so busy cleaning; I want to contribute...not sit around and do nothing!"

Biography

Early Life

Appearance

Joni is shown to be a young, petite girl with fair skin and the shortest among Mia and Emilia[6] and, like most of her friends, has a slender body figure. The most prominent features of Joni is the freckles on her face and her coral pink hair that she kept short.

Just like almost all the other characters, she consistently change her clothing, but the most notable detail of her clothes is a golden star locket that was given by Mikael in Reaching for the Stars.[7]

Joni is always seen wearing boyish clothes as she has a strong dislike for skirts and dresses, may because it is hard for her to do any sporty things.

Joni's physique

Despite exercising a lot, Joni is the fattest and heaviest member in Candy JEM, this is proven when Anthony calculated the BMI of his friends, hers nearly exceeded the normal range.[8] Furthermore so when she tried to wear a T-shirt which tightened around her body to the point of showing off a bit of her abdomen.[9]

Personality

Joni is a lively, cheerful and energetic girl who gets along with everyone compared to her best friend since kindergarten, Mia. She always seems energetic around people. Joni is an optimistic and fun-loving person, and is fiercely loyal to her friends. But sometimes she tends to display her carefree and reckless nature, which makes her a tomboy.

I have confidence

Joni showcased her optimism, saying how she has confidence to Mikael.

Joni also shows rivalries with several characters, like Charles and Sofia, giving them nicknames (calling Charles a 'Chunni') or getting into fights with them, mostly verbally. Despite their common brawls and arguments with her, Joni bears no ill will, as she considers everyone she knows to be her friends.

Joni's recklessness and stubbornness sometimes results in Emilia, her brother Julian and several other people to reprimand her or even hit her whenever she done something wrong. She has a straightforward mind, often tackling with problems and issues by jumping into conclusions without even acknowledging the situation first. In spite of her nature, she deeply cares for her friends and would get furious whenever something or someone hurts them.
