Sion Tōdō (東堂シオン Tōdō Shion) is an 8th grader at Paprika Private Academy. She is an idol at PriPara, and is also a cool-type idol. She is voiced by Saki Yamakita, a member of i☆Ris. Her preferred brand is Baby Monster.
She makes a cameo appearance in Episode 13. She is currently in the unit Dressing Pafé, with Dorothy West and Reona West, which was formed during Episode 14.
Appearance
Sion has dark purple hair pulled up into a thick, slightly messy side-tail with her spiked bangs longer on one side of her face. She has vibrant golden amber eyes. In PriPara, her hair is adorned with a bat wing hairpiece, and she wears a purple and cyan heart shaped earring and a rhombus earring on one of her ears. During her Cyalume Change, her hair becomes a darker shade of purple and black.
Personality
Sion's Go Board
Sion is calm and reassuring on the surface, but her roots have a hot and headstrong personality. She is quite competitive, as she is determined to win at everything. She plays Go, and compares everything to the game and learns many things according to the playing board. She's highly perceptive and intelligent with her level being on par with Mirei. She's been noted to be very stubborn, however she's also a very loyal person.
She casually adds yojijukugo (four-character idiom) to her sentences, which appear on the screen most of the time when she does.
Relationships
- Dorothy West - Right away they got off to a bad start; as Dorothy is very bold and sharp-tongued and tries to make things go her way which clashes with Sion's more reserved and headstrong personality. They bickered at first but eventually came to be friendly towards each other and work well together.
- Reona West - At first she is neutral with Reona and takes a liking to his obedience and even complimented him on his looks and seemed genuinely fond of him fairly quick. However as they spend more time together, Sion begins to genuinely care for both him and his sister. She trusts him entirely.
- Mirei Minami - She initially disliked Mirei for giving her a Warning Ticket, for Breaking Rule #11 of Paprika Private Academy. As a result, she has sworn revenge to humiliate her by defeating her in PriPara. In episode 15, they go up against each other, but for most part seem to be evenly matched. As they start working more together, their dislike for each other dissipates into a friendly rivalry and they are often the ones referred to for the main decisions and opinions.
- Usagi - Usagi is Dressing Pafé's Manager. They have a good relationship, although Sion sometimes questions Usagi's personal attitude.
- Nino Nijiiro - They first meet each other during a card game. Nino later officially introduces herself and strive to overtake Sion.

Etymology
Tōdō (東堂): The term Tōdō can be split up in two. the tō means east, while the dō means shrine. It can be roughly translated into Eastern Shrine. However, Tōdō is also a common Japanese surname. This can be considered a pun since Laala's last name means center, Mirei's last name means south, Sophy's last name means "Northern line" (north), and Dorothy and Reona's last name is West.
Sion (シオン): Is a unisex name, which may be a reference to her cool image, and the Japanese word for the aster flower. Sion is also the root of its derived "Shion-iro" which is a pale purple color or violet (the color of asters). This may refer to her idol type and theme color.
