What is the English name of Maten Aihoshi? Decrypting the overseas charm and popularity of the gap moe vice president in "Too Many Losing Heroines!"

With the anime adaptation of the light novel "Too Many Losing Heroines!" (負けヒロインが多すぎる！), this work and its various charming "losing heroine" characters have sparked heated discussions worldwide. Among them, the seemingly stern but inwardly full of gap moe student council vice president—Mabataki Tiara, has captured the hearts of many fans both domestically and internationally with her unique personality and standout performances in the story. When many fans search for information about her, fan creations, or participate in overseas community discussions, the first question they encounter is: "What exactly is Mabataki Tiara's English name?"

Solving the Name Mystery: Tiara Basori

First, let's reveal the answer. According to official data and various anime information websites, Mabataki Tiara's official English (Romanized) name is Tiara Basori.

• Surname: 馬剃 (Basori)
• Given Name: 天愛星 (Tiara)

Interestingly, her given name "Tiara" (ティアラ) means "crown" or "tiara" in both Japanese and English, which has also become an interesting gag in the story. She herself seems troubled and conflicted about this somewhat dreamy-sounding name, but the male protagonist, Nukumizu Kazuhiko, often calls her by her first name directly, and this interaction has become a cute detail in the development of their relationship.

How Do Overseas Fans View Tiara Basori?

After getting used to core losing heroine members like Natsumi, Shio, and Komari, Tiara Basori's appearance undoubtedly injected new vitality into the story. On English anime communities like MyAnimeList and Reddit, she also enjoys extremely high popularity and discussion. Overseas fans' affection for her mainly focuses on the following points:

1. Strong Gap Moe Upon her first appearance, Tiara was a stern, rule-abiding student council vice president who rarely smiled. However, as the story progressed, readers and viewers quickly discovered that beneath her serious exterior lies an easily excitable girl who loves to imagine scenarios and even unexpectedly becomes a "fujoshi". This huge gap instantly made the character three-dimensional and became a beloved moe point among fans.

2. Courage to Take the Initiative Compared to the other "losing heroines" still struggling with past relationships, Tiara is one of the few characters in the middle part of the story who shows strong initiative. Especially during the student council election and sports festival arcs in volume 8 of the novel, she not only actively invited Nukumizu to be her campaign endorser but also performed "the scavenger hunt race specifying the person she likes" in front of the entire school, followed by a direct confession. This brave attitude of pursuing love has been highly praised by many overseas fans, who believe that although she later joined the ranks of the losing heroines, she is a model of "a glorious defeat".

3. Unique Character Role In a story themed around "losing heroines," Tiara's position is quite special. She doesn't seek comfort due to a lost love but joins the fray as a completely new pursuer. Her appearance not only stirred up the previously somewhat stable relationships among the main characters but also put the male protagonist Nukumizu Kazuhiko in the predicament of facing a "direct confession" for the first time, greatly advancing the plot.

Why Do Fans Search for Her English Name?

Fans searching for "Mabataki Tiara English" are usually trying to explore this character's world more deeply. Whether looking for fan works by Japanese or international artists on platforms like Pixiv or X (Twitter), participating in English story discussions on forums like Reddit or MyAnimeList, or even watching character highlight compilations on YouTube, using "Tiara Basori" as a keyword will undoubtedly lead to richer and more diverse content.

In summary, with her unique charm, brave personality, and key role in driving the plot, Tiara Basori has successfully stood out in the work "Too Many Losing Heroines!", becoming a character beloved by fans worldwide, transcending language and cultural barriers.
