Sal (anime)

Sal, known as Saroma (サロマ) in Japan, is a character in the MegaMan NT Warrior anime series. The owner of a flower shop in DenTech City that Lan Hikari and his friends often visited, she is secretly a Net Agent alongside Miyu and Maysa under the disguise of Black Rose (黒バラ仮面). She is the NetOp of WoodMan.EXE.

Overview
Sal is a gentle and kind young woman who loves nature, and has great knowledge of it. She is wise beyond her years, often giving Lan and friends advice on how to solve problems. Despite seeming like a simple flower shop owner, Sal is secretly a Net Agent with a strong sense of justice and a skilled net battler working to stop crime while under the disguise of Black Rose. At rare times she may slack off on her job, such as when she was sent to Jyawaii to watch out for crime, but instead sunbathed on a boat with Miyu. She once misused her powers as a Net Agent to let her childhood friend Dave get away from the Net Police when he put on an act and threatened to blow up Okuden Valley’s dam, though this may have been to protect him from Grave, as he had hired to do so. She is a fan of Aki and once dressed as her for a lookalike contest.

Soft spoken and shy, she gets flustered in many situations, such as when Maylu and Yai ask if Dave is her childhood love, when she was seen dressing up as Aki, and when she was asked (forced) to be the announcer of a NetBattle tournament competing for Ms Mari’s love, though in that case once the competition started she quickly became energetic and loud.
