Background

Anna was born in a village called "the Sakura village" , close by to Koma village. Anna had her father and her sister Anya with her. Sadly, at the age of 3, Hades, God of the Underworld destroyed it, leaving Anna as the last survivor. As he was following her through the forest, Ryo quickly saved Anna by launching Storm Pegasus at it. Gingka helped Anna, who was scared until she got paralyzed, out of the forest followed by Ryo who defeated him temporarily. Ryo took care of Anna like she was his daughter. When she got fully healed, she explained what happened, how she never met her mother, that her father and sister were killed. It was very hard for a 3 year old child to live without its parents.... Luckily the Haganes took her in, considering her as their beloved daughter and sister. At the age of 5, she had to move to Japan because her (deceased) father's business job permanently told her to leave, as hard as it seems..... She accepted. At the airport, preparing to leave Gingka told her " When things get hard, pull up your socks and run through it! ". Repeating that sentence made her confidence grow. As the years past through, she learns to use her Star Gem given by her mother at her birth. She lived at a small apartment, with a neighbor that would usually help Anna when she needs it. When Gingka came into town, she was overjoyed and stayed by his side everyday and followed him everywhere. Later on in the series, after Ryo made his appearance and works as the director of WBBA, she had a room in HQ as well as Gingka.

In Beyblade: Shogun Steel, she works with the Ministry of Defense and helps the FBI solve murders.
