Relationships[]
- Laura Bodewig - Her Second Lieutenant. Clarissa seems to be close to her as they share the title of Lieutenant. After Laura fell in love with Ichika, she would often call Clarissa for advice on what she should do, with all of her advice being based off of what she read in Mangas.
- Chifuyu Orimura - Clarissa seems to know her since she calls her Instructor Orimura, like Laura. Similar to Laura, Clarissa greatly admires Chifuyu and was looking forward to seeing her again when she, Maya, and all the personal IS pilots were going to stop in Germany. But to her disappointment, Chifuyu was being princess carried by Ichika instead of leading the pack of IS as she expected.
- Maya Yamada - The assistant homeroom teacher in Class One and a former IS Representative Candidate of Japan. They first met each other while all the 1st year personal IS pilots, Chifuyu, and Maya went to Germany after Cecilia's private jet is shot down by Rogna Kalinych over Russia. Later, Maya and Clarissa get into a match after the latter questioned whether Maya was qualified to lead the German front. After a heated battle, Clarissa and Maya end up reaching a double knock out, and they have gained a newfound respect for each another as Clarissa apologizes for her previous remark.
