She builds a relationship with her new found family and lives in the quiet confined world along with wingless-halo-less beings while trying to uncover the mystery behind the impenetrable wall that no one dares to cross.

Rakka gains our number ten spot because she is the perfect example of an anime angel character. Given the obvious wings and halo, she also has the characteristics of being holy and she somehow has a celestial connection with birds. She also shows deep attachment to her new found family and is very curious about the mysteries surrounding her life. Her character is a great representation if we were to describe how angels would live if they were sent to the human world, even though it was never determined she was an angel, we definitely like to believe she is!
