Mion Sonozaki

Mion Sonozaki, also known as Mii-chan, Old Man and Uncle Mion, is one of the main characters from the Higurashi no Naku Koro ni series.
== Charactah Account ==
Mion is the oldest kid in Keiichi's class. As the elder, she is the class president and everyone looks up to her as the leader. Her social skills are on par with Keiichi, whom she highly respects as a friend and rival (though it is later shown that she has a crush on him).
She acts like a tomboy, and calls herself oji-san (meaning old man), but has a hidden girlish side. She is next in line to be the head of the Sonozaki household, one of the Three Families which holds tremendous influence in Hinamizawa. She is often seen with a holstered airsoft gun, even though she is never seen using it, and was removed in the PS2 adaption of the game; she is, however, very adept in the use of martial arts.
Mion also serves as leader of the after-school club consisting entirely of the main characters. She organizes a variety of strategy-based games for the members to play with penalties for any losers. Penalties usually involve wearing embarrassing or frilly outfits on the way home. Each game she organizes involves bending the general rules or using questionable and crude methods to win such as playing cards with a marked deck or using feminine wiles to discourage opposition.

== Trivia ==
* "A Gentleman Never Asks:" Mion and her sister's age appears fluid given the live-action adaptation that pushed up their ages. However, since Japanese students enter high school at the age of 15, and 1983 marks Mion's last year before graduating and entering high school, this would put her age at 14 prior to her birthday in July, 1983. When They Cry Wiki understands the desire for precision, but we have to deal with the marked cards dealt! As noted previously, the new arc Satokowashi-hen, which takes place in June, 1984, confirms she is in her first year of high school.
* Only a very small number of subbers have noted the fact that Mion says "oji-san" very clearly in many lines where she refers to herself. Oji-san can mean either uncle or old man. MangaGamer's translation of the games includes this detail as "Uncle Mion."
* During the ending special of the 2nd episode of Kai, when Hanyuu recites the "ABC's of Higurashi" and asks Rika to provide an input for the letter S, Rika replies, "Shii and Mii go 'Gugegegege'!" This guttural sound is heard during the Zombie Tag game when Shion and Mion were acting as bloodthirsty zombies, and also in the 5th episode of Rei when Mion receives a violent uppercut from a love-cursed Rena.
* Her and Shion's father is a yakuza boss. Befitting her role as a yakuza heiress, Mion's school uniform is of a style stereotypically associated with the "sukeban" delinquent subculture.
* She is 165 cm and weighs 52 kg.
