In the third volume of the _Tsukihime_ manga, [an
illustration](https://i.stack.imgur.com/7Iw2B.jpg) (possibly NSFW) of a number
of female characters at a hot spring appears.

I can recognize most of the characters here. (Akiha stands outside of the bath
with the twins Hisui and Kohaku; Arcueid is sitting on a stone surface, with
Len at her feet; the girl left of Arcueid is Yumizuka; and Ciel is wearing her
glasses.) However, I don't recognize the blonde character with green eyes or
the brunette with a bathing cap.

Who are these two characters?

Who are these Tsukihime characters?


The blonde is [Nanako](http://typemoon.wikia.com/wiki/Nanako) or Seven because
her name is short for [the Seventh Holy
Scripture](http://typemoon.wikia.com/wiki/Seventh_Holy_Scripture#Seventh_Holy_Scripture).

Nanako is the spirit of that gun Ciel had in Tsukihime. However, she doesn't
make an appearance in human form until _Kagetsu Tohya_ in one of the side
stories, Nanako-chan S.O.S. She is also mentioned by Akihiko himself on
occasion

The girl with the bathing cap is [Miyako
Arima](http://typemoon.wikia.com/wiki/Miyako_Arima).

[![Miyako](https://i.stack.imgur.com/HDs6D.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/HDs6D.png)

She is Tohno Shiki's cousin as well as step-sister when Shiki was adopted into
the Arima family after the incident between him and SHIKI. She's mentioned in
_Tsukihime_ and _Kagetsu Tohya_ but she doesn't make an appearance until
_Melty Blood_ , generally in the routes involving the Tohno family (as opposed
to the routes dealing with Night of Wallachia).

She is also the main character in [_Hana no
Miyako_](http://typemoon.wikia.com/wiki/Hana_no_Miyako).
