An English girl who transfers into Shinobu's school and stays at her house. She loves Japanese culture.  Alice is a cute petit girl who is fluent in both English and Japanese (though it is mentioned that during Shinobu's homestay in England, the both of them communicated with each other only using the words, "thank you" and "konnichiwa").  Alice is very close to Shinobu and often tries to catch her attention, even to the point where she would try to one-up herself from Karasuma-sensei so Shinobu could see that Alice's English is better than Karasuma's.  Alice is one of the most level headed people in the group, though she often finds herself embarrassed or in strange situations whenever she tries to win over Shinobu's attention.  Alice has shown slight jealousy towards Karen and even Karasuma-sensei because Karen often pushes herself onto Shinobu and Shinobu admires Karasuma-sensei.  Nevertheless, Alice's more negative feelings are often used in a joking manner within the series rather than a spiteful one.

The story begins with Oomiya Shinobu, a 15-year-old, seemingly pure Japanese girl who actually did a homestay in Great Britain. Even after coming back to Japan, she still misses her time overseas. One day, an airmail letter arrives from Alice, the girl in Shinobu's host family in Great Britain. The letter reads: Shinobu, I'm coming to Japan! The Japanese/British girls' mixed comedy follows the lives of Shinobu, Alice, and other girls from both Japan and Great Britain.

The second season of Kiniro Mosaic.
 
Although learning different languages continues to be an interest for Shinobu and her friends, the new school year brings unexpected difficulties. Not only is there always something new and different to distract them from their studies, but Alice and Yoko also are having trouble adjusting to being in a different class from Shinobu and Aya. Meanwhile, Karen isn't getting along at all with her new homeroom teacher, and it doesn't help that the teacher is having trouble figuring out how to make herself seem friendlier to her students as well. Craziness may ensue, but sometimes, all it takes is the right mutual experience to bring everyone together.

One of the best parts about being in a group of friends is that you usually have a couple of guardian angels watching over you. So, when Shinobu has to both write a script as well as make costumes for a play for the school festival, it doesn't take long for her classmates to realize that someone might have bitten off more than she can chew. Or write and sew, in this case. Fortunately for Shinobu's theatrical future, Alice, Yoko, and Aya are glad to pitch in, and that allows for a chance to reflect on their experiences in the days before Alice arrived. Will everything be finished in time, or will the audience be in stitches because of the ones coming apart onstage?

Time flies when you're having fun, and it seems like only yesterday that Shinobu Omiya was nervously waiting for her friend Alice Cartelet to arrive from England to study at Shinobu's school in Japan. Now, in their third and final year, Alice, Shinobu, Aya, and Yoko have truly become the best of friends and even Karen, Honoka, and Kana are part of the gang as well. But since it's their last year, that means their time will be split between preparing for the big senior trip to Nara and Kyoto, and trying to make plans for whatever is to come next in their lives… and in Shinobu's case, that may mean something so amazing that she'd never even dared to dream it!
