Story Arc
Nerine's story arc, overlapping with Primula's, begins with the introduction of Nerine's clone, . Lycoris is a clone grown from Nerine's cells, and was the girl who had met Rin as children (the one who met Rin was not Nerine, as characters in the anime previously stated). Lycoris and Rin met about 8 years before the start of the storyline and Lycoris fell in love with him. Because Nerine had caught an incurable illness, Lycoris gave her life to save Nerine. Before she gave up her life, however, she told Nerine all about Rin and asked her to see him when she gets better. Following Lycoris' sacrifice, Lycoris' soul integrated with Nerine's and inadvertantly also transferred to Nerine her thoughts, talents and wishes, as well as her love for Rin.
Nerine, throughout the series, tries to improve at cooking, but the only item she can make are omlettes. Nerine is very determined to get better at cooking, which she thinks of as her weakest and most unattractive point, so she can make more food for Rin. Initially, Nerine often becomes depressed when seeing Rin with Sia, but after her confession to Rin about Lycoris' identity and her own love for Rin (which had blossomed during her effort to fulfill Lycoris' last wish), she no longer becomes depressed, as she realizes that she would never win Rin's heart.
Nerine joins the school broadcasting club and has made new friends at her school. She tells Rin that she will keep on loving him, but won't let that interfere with her own life.
Shuffle!'s sequel, Tick! Tack!, focuses on Nerine's story.
