Personality: Rinne is lazy and freeloads off others, often wanting to play games, gamble, and have fun with people, and avoids responsibility whenever possible, including unit practice. Treating his life "like it's a game," or more famously, a gamble. He makes rash decisions for himself and his unit, and more than willing to pull others with him. He refuses to take small steps and instead takes the risk without question, as it's "fun" for him, even at the cost of everything around him crumbling. He rarely listens to others and almost never follows orders, considered crazy or chaotic by others. As a frequent gambler, he often blames things on his luck. He has several catchphrases related to feeling lucky or like "Lady Luck" is on his side. Despite his behavior, he cares about the people around him under his risk-taking facade and treasures them and his unit dearly, though he mostly shows it in situations where he takes the unit seriously. When he's in a tight position, he opts to destroy or sacrifice himself for others, no matter how severe it is, under another instance of his risky behavior. He has instances where he doesn't want to be perceived as weak for showing how he really feels, as that was how he grew up to believe.

Backstory: Ever since he was young, Rinne had dreamed of departing the city. While he used to be embarrassed of his dreams, after seeing an idol in the city, Rinne ran away from his hometown as a teenager to pursue life in the city when he was around 17 years old. He struggled adjusting and particularly had difficulties coming by food, because he had a prideful upbringing which prevented him from bowing his head to others. Niki happened to come upon him while Rinne was in poor condition, when he was out scavenging for food himself. After Rinne falls unconscious mid-conversation, Niki decided to bring Rinne to his apartment, and later offers Rinne some of his food after he wakes. Niki was also in poor condition at the time, and ends up collapsing as well. The two stuck together going forward, and in an effort to pursue Rinne's dream, they both did research and tried to become idols together. )

Ensemble Square is an entertainment company that exists on its own miniature island in Japan. Introduced in EP:Link, Eichi Tenshouin, the agency president, and Ibara Saegusa, his collaborator, intend to use Ensemble Square to revolutionize the idol industry. It is the parent entertainment company of dozens of talent agencies, which are housed inside the building. Of Ensemble Square's agencies, STARMAKER PRODUCTION, COSMIC PRODUCTION, Rhythm Link and NEW DIMENSION contain the Idol units. Ensemble Square works with the business side of the entertainment industry and provides a larger net of connections and protection to each of its affiliated agencies than each would have if they operated in isolation. The specifics of Ensemble Square and its agencies are not yet fully known, but each agency is said to have its own policies and standards which Ensemble Square does not interfere with. Ensemble Square is meant to provide work-related opportunities to each agency, and the agencies are meant to select which of its talents to assign to each job. The Ensemble Square building is located on an island in the Tokyo metropolitan area, and the island is dedicated to Ensemble Square facilities and Ensemble Square idol activities. This island was once owned by the Shinkai-led religious sect, hence its fish-like shape, but was later purchased by the Tenshouin conglomerate. Ensemble Square facilities range from practical (helioport, airport, parking structure, etc), standard (practice rooms, training halls, stages, etc), and enriching (gardens, gyms, recreation, etc). Food and costuming services also exist on the island. Ensemble Square facilities are state-of-the-art and designed to meet every idol's needs as a performer and individual. Some facilities, such as clothing and training rooms, require L$ to access. Seisou Hall serves as the dormitory for Ensemble Square idols. Housing at the dormitory is free. While it's not mandatory by ES policy that ES idols must live in the dorms, it is expected that they do. While the dorm appears to have certain rules, the only known one at present is that women are not allowed into the dorms, and evidently cannot go any further than the gates. Upon entering the dorms, idols are assigned roommates. Written L$ but pronounced "Lii dollar", L$ is the virtual currency (via the supplied smartphones) of ES that is needed for all idol-related things. L$ cannot be used outside of ES, and it is not permitted to exchange L$ for yen. 1 L$ is roughly equivalent to 100 yen. When it comes to non-work-related services in ES, like buying food, idols are allowed to choose to pay using Yen or L$. The amount one earns also reflects the judgement of their abilities to a certain extent, the fans' support and the unit/idol's popularity with surprising accuracy. The harder they work, the more popular they are, the more L$ they earn. L$ is earned mainly through completing assigned work, and each idol is expected to manage their balance well to participate in idol activities, as most activities require an entry fee - whose participation boosts reputation. If an idol or unit doesn't participate in idol activities, L$ will be deducted regularly from their account like a tax. If someone is to be found acting inappropriately as an idol, a fixed amount of L$ will be confiscated. Therefore, idols also have the responsibility to be self-aware with their words and actions to not upset higher-ups and risk losing L$. Idols in ES only started to work hard after this system was created. The L$ each idol holds is recorded and revealed to the public, and fans check the amounts regularly - the ranking of L$ is regularly updated on ES's official website. The top three are called the 'big three' and the L$ they have earned has reached a maximum, (ten million) the counter doesn't go further than that. The current 'top three' are fine, Eden and Knights. On the cutting-edge ES smartphone, exclusive social networking app "Hold-Hands" is a common way for ES idols to contact each other. If the idol is fired, their smartphone is confiscated and the Hold-Hands account is terminated.

STARMAKER PRODUCTION: an idol production office established by Eichi Tenshouin. All the students enrolled in Idol Course of Yumenosaki Academy will be automatically assigned to offices on Ensemble Square, and they are free to choose their ideal ones.
