Katie Maurice


 * "I used to pretend that my reflection in it was another little girl who lived in it. I called her Katie Maurice, and we were very intimate." -Anne talking about Katie

Katie Maurice is the name of the imaginary friend that Anne Shirley invents, and who takes up residency in her reflection whenever she sees it in a mirror, window, or water. In the anime of Akage no An, she fantasizes about entering Maurice's mirror world and playing with her, while in the animated series, she even talks back to her and takes independent actions in the mirror, voiced by Bryn McAuley.

Generally, these actions depicted of Katie Maurice can be interpreted as these animated series conveying what Anne is imagining in her head, as opposed to an actual living entity that is acting for real, though this is not ruled out.
