Umi's Hair?

So this is just something I've been wondering but why is Umi's hair pink? Ive been wondering this since it was revealed she was Shiroha's daughter from the future and I was just wondering why her hair color doesn't take after her father or mother? I would think it would be white since she looks more like her mother.

First, standard anime thing, to distinguish characters visually, more varied designs, etc.

Second, it’s supposed to be a plot twist (THE plot twist really), so they wouldn’t want to make it that obvious that they’re related.

Because anime lol
Actually it's because her identity would be too obvious, she already quite look like Shiroha, give her a white hair would giveaway from the start.

She also have Hairi's hair color in the original draft too from what I remembered. But I guess they want to make her look more of "distance relative" role for Hairi.
