Personality
A speed demon and daredevil, Sena often proves very excitable due to her track running and former karuta careers, which also leaves her with a great love of high speeds. She is also hot-headed due to this, but has a bubbly and empathetic nature, and is a soft person on the inside. She is an eager member of the group, and often charges in the battle headstrong, sword in hand, though she does have a squeamish side, often shown to be cowardly against the attacks of Darkness Megabeast Mecha Smog Jouki and Catcher Ligany.

Behind the Scenes
Portrayal
Sena Hayami is portrayed by Yume Shinjo (新庄 由芽 Shinjō Yume). As Kiramai Green, her suit actor is Ryoko Gomi (五味 涼子 Gomi Ryōko), who previously served as suit actor for Patren 3gou.
Etymology
The 速 (Haya) of her name means speed, matching her interested and career. Her given name, Sena, is derived from the surname of the late three-time Formula One world champion Ayrton Senna. It also possibly derived from Sena Kobayakawa, a fictional character who is also a high speed runner.
Notes
- Sena has her surname's phonetic spelling same as Umika Hayami.
- Hayami (
速 見 "Speed"+"Sight") means "Chart" but it is because a chart is made for quick sight. So "Hayami" could mean "Fast sighted" or even "Faster than the eye". It makes sense since she's a runner. - However, the sense of Haya (
早 "Speed") and Haya (速 "Speed") are very similar. It is because of the fact it is one word in Japanese, but in Chinese there is a shade between these words; when kanji were imported to Japan, the Japanese word for "Speed" pronounced Haya was applied as kun'yomi on multiple kanji that have that mean.- Sena's is the same as in Kosoku Sentai Turboranger (
高 速 戦 隊 ターボレンジャー Kōsoku Sentai Tāborenjā), that is a Super Sentai series about speed.
- Sena's is the same as in Kosoku Sentai Turboranger (
