Anharu

"It's still a little weird to always see you dressed so properly, Haruka. In elementary and middle school, you were always competing in silly contests to see who could run faster or eat their entire lunch first."

- Area Conversation in Main Street

Anharu is the femslash ship between An Shiraishi and Haruka Kiritani from the Project SEKAI fandom.

Canon
An and Haruka had been childhood friends ever since elementary school, however they do not have many interactions in game. Although An goes to Kamiyama High and Haruka goes to Miyamasuzaka, they still hang out with each other outside of school. Both were experienced in the idol career before joining their respective units, An was a popular performer at her father's cafe, WEEKEND GARAGE, and Haruka formerly a member of the idol group ASRUN, being the member with the highest popularity. An appears in both side stories of one of Haruka's three-star card and Haruka appears to be talking with An in the Vivid BAD SQUAD event, Singing in Sync. They also have one area conversation together.

In the first side story of Haruka's 3* card "The Non-Idol Me", Haruka ends up going to visit An at the WEEKEND GARAGE. They go sit down to talk to each other after not seeing each other since middle school. Haruka wonders why An isn't asking about her, in which An replies with "I will...if you want me too. The world may know you as the perfect idol, but to me, you'll always be that girl with the bright blue penguin-shaped lunchbox who secretly eats early lunches with a huge grin on her face during class.", leaving Haruka embarrassed. In the end, Haruka smiles, thinking to herself "Wherever I go, people see me as ASRUN's Haruka Kiritani. But to An... I was right to come here."

In the second side story of Haruka's 3* card "The Non-Idol Me", Haruka comes back to WEEKEND GARAGE on a holiday morning to have a little chat with An. Haruka explains to An that she's decided to become an idol again, saying that a fellow schoolmate proved that idols really can bring hope to others. An, being happy for Haruka, says "Haruka, your face is so clear now.", as well as also offering places for her to perform at. They exchange their farewells and the side story ends with Haruka saying to herself, "I'm so glad I got to talk to An. Back then, it was because of her I was able to move ahead. This time, its my turn to do what I can to help everyone else move ahead as well."

In the event "Singing In Sync", the two interact in the 4/5th episode, where Haruka runs into An after they both had a performance. Haruka notices An to be quite down, recalling the last time she was like this when Sports Day was canceled when the two were kids. Haruka worried, she asks An whats wrong, to which An explains her situation with Kohane. Haruka then gives An advice, saying she should go heart-to-heart with Kohane, not wanting An to hurt her friend like how Haruka did due to not being able to communicate clearly. An thanks Haruka for the advice, saying she feels a lot better, then they both say their farewells.
