==== Corpse Michitsugu ====
 Corpse Michitsugu (死体道次, Shikabane Michitsugu) is the Michitsugu present in For The Train Station of Dreams. Her skin is a sickly rotten Grayish Yellow (#EFDDBF), and her height remains more-or-less the same as in Angels × S (152cm ish, 5'0) despite the left side of her Orange-tinted Peach (#FAB27A) brain being exposed. She has short, noticeably messed up, barely neck-length unstyled Dark Brown (#543E3C) hair with bangs heavily resembling Momoi Airi's that reach her just past her eyes. Her uneven front strands now split into 3; On the left, her strand is the same length as in Wing 0 with an outwards left-pointing piece reaching her cheekbone, a middle outwards-pointing piece that reaches the middle of her neck, and an inwards-pointing strand reaching just above her chin. On the right, her strand is the same length as in her Final Derivative, splitting into 3 again: her outwards-right pointing piece reaches her jawline, her middle-outwards pointing piece reaching just above her shoulder, and an inwards-pointing strand reaching just above her button-up shirt's collar. On the right side of her head, her hair is messed up and tangled near her eye from the time when Himeko pulled it when she was alive. Just above that is her ahoge, starting near her forehead and poking outwards. Additionally, she has no eyelashes, and her eye color is Orange (#FFAB62) although it's somewhat difficult to tell due to the corpse-like glaze in them present for obvious reasons. She's mostly due blind to her eyes decomposing, and while the cause of her being able to slightly see is never stated, her vision in her right eye is worse than in her left. She also has mild Purple-ish ( #DCCDC1) eyebags, and is shown to bleed in the same color as Wing 1 Himeko; Bubblegum Pink (#EFAAD1), as evidenced by the blood flowing down her forehead. 
Corpse Michitsugu is shown to wear the uniform for Shiyabi Girls' Middle School, although there's noticeable altercations due to being in the Train Station of Dreams. She wears a slightly big Lavender-tinted White (#F8F6F9) long-sleeved button up shirt with 1 Desaturated Cooler Purple (#514157) stripe around the collar, sleeve cuffs, and the shirt's trim. Her shirt is untucked on the left side, with 5 visible Desaturated Warmer Purple (#685367) buttons undone that reaches her thighs, and a Desaturated Cooler Purple (#514157) skirt with 1 Lavender-tinted White (#F8F6F9) stripe near the end of the skirt, which reaches near the end of her thigh near her knees. Corpse Michitsugu's Morpho Butterfly-shaped bow is Orange (#FFAB62) and droops down to the middle of her stomach, and despite heavily resembling the bow of Shinitagari Shoujo's Highschool, it has 1 Lavender-tinted White (#F8F6F9) stripe near the end. Her nails are also painted evenly, 5 of her mangled fingers across each hand total are Orange (#FFAB62), and the other 5 are Orange-tinted Peach (#FAB27A). Corpse Michitsugu's oversized blazer from Shiyabi Girls' Middle School is Desaturated Warm Brown (#825945) with 2 Dull Brownish Magenta (#7D574F) stripes across the collar, 4 buttons, sleeves, and trim as well as having the color on the inside and pockets of the jacket. It hangs unevenly; the left side starting near the top of her bow and falling to her thigh just above the stripe of her skirt, and the right side starting barely atop her shoulder and falling near her hip. Corpse Michitsugu's socks of choice are Magenta-tinted Black (#3B3137), also slightly uneven; the left side being just below her knee like she wore in Wing 0, while the right is slightly lower and shows some of her calf like she wore in Wing 1. Michitsugu wears 1 Orange-tinted Peach (#FAB27A) Uwabaki shoe on her right foot, likely due to he left shoe falling off when she committed suicide in Angels × S' Wing 1. 
While none of Corpse Michitsugu's belongings from her time in Angels × S appeared to have carried over, another notable trait of hers is to summon spiders when in a state of misery. Typically, she's depicted with a spider around the size of her palm on her left leg, and a spider the size of her hand on her shoulder, although the total amount of spiders she summons is unknown. For more information on said spiders, see Michitsugu's Spiders. Another crucial detail to Corpse Michitsugu's design is that several of her bones are broken, or even outright shattered in numerous places, although the only specifics given are her skull, her hands, and her right leg as of November 2023. 
== Personality ==
=== In Wing 0 ===
Little is known about Michitsugu's personality in Wing 0, and not enough about her life prior to this is known for it to have it's own section, although it's implied that she was far happier than her life prior to being bullied by Himeko and shunned by those around her. She was in the same class as Himeko, Koriko, and Yotsuya that year, although the events of such are unknown. She's stated to like petting cats passing by Shiyabi Girls' Middle School/Shinitagari Shoujo's Middle School and eating chocolate candy, but liking cute things is still nothing unordinary.
=== In Wing 1 ===
==== Wing 1's Start ====
Michitsugu is a mostly unremarkable and plain person, tending to keep to herself and trying not to stand out much, displaying a dislike for drawing herself attention or giving it to others. Michitsugu is also shown to dislike difficult things, which results in her having few achievements in her life. While mostly outcast from those in her class, she was shown to have at least a few friends at school prior to being targeted, and also displayed an enjoyment of bike riding even outside it being her preferred form transport to school. While functioning as an NPC, Michitsugu also appeared somewhat reserved and cowardly, likely insecure due to being such an average person. At this time, her grades were also nothing special, which also seemed to contribute to her dissatisfaction and low confidence.
==== Wing 1's Middle ====
Thanks to being unable to stand up for herself, and not having anything special of her own, Michitsugu was quickly targeted by Himeko and her friends, as well as even Koriko, having to endure bullying daily which caused her to fall into a resentful depression to the point of wanting to die. Michitsugu's grades fell below average, and she developed even more depressive and almost-hostile behavior, worsening things further. At this time, her old friends had began ditching her completely, and even those who didn't actively hurt her seemed to act as if she didn't exist. Despite not doing anything about her mistreatment and torment, and easily being influenced by Himeko's opinions, Michitsugu strongly despises Himeko, Ayaka, Hasumi, and Koriko, Himeko the most of them, and rightfully hates the group for being the cause of her misfortune and indirectly death. 
=== In For the Train Station of Dreams ===
Due to numerous factors, from the bullying Corpse Michitsugu experienced while alive as well as being conscious while undead, her eyes blankly stare with a cold expression at whatever she looks at. While the flow of time in this world is extremely confusing if at all existent, her old self has been replaced by a hateful shell of a person so agonised they could barely be called a "Human". She is shown to aimlessly lament her past, typically residing in a bed-like coffin or wandering around with her spiders. While it's unclear if she can even feel anything anymore, such as the pain of her skull being fractured or some of her brain missing, let alone emotions, she is capable of thinking, talking and moving, regardless of how potentially agonizing it may be. Corpse Michitsugu appears tired regardless of how much "time" she sleeps and is highly irritable, only capable of being found by the player as Toko willingly and knowingly looking for her. 
== Background ==
=== History ===
Little information on Michitsugu's family life is available. Her Mother and Father have been married since prior to her birth. The two seemed somewhat distant, although nothing neglectful. Michitsugu never told them about her bullying, and their opinions on their daughter's death are unknown. Michitsugu is an only child and had no pets despite her like of cats, and nothing about her upbringing had been stated. She's implied to have attended either Shiyabi Girl's Elementary School or Shinitagari Shoujo's Elementary School like most students in both schools, though which of the two is unknown. Michitsugu is also hinted to have at somepoint prior to Wing 1 been somewhat close to Tomocho Utsui, although the exact time of their friendship is unknown.
Michitsugu transferred into Shiyabi Girls' Middle School upon becoming a First Year Middle Schooler for obvious reasons, such as being a Middle Schooler, although the reason this school was chosen is unknown. The events of her first year of middle school as well as the holidays and breaks that followed are also unknown, although she managed to develop at least few short-lived friendships at this time and maintained her sense of normality.
=== In Wing 0 ===
As stated previously, Michitsugu's life in her Second Year of Middle School outside of being classmates with Himeko, Koriko, and Yotsuya that year is unknown at this time. Since she kept to herself a lot, Michitsugu likely didn't have much connection to any of them outside sharing a class. She didn't attend any clubs or ever really do much with her life, displaying a sense of dissatisfied inferiority even prior to her main cause of it. Even so, she was atleast decently happy, in part to the newer friendships she made at this time. 
=== In Wing 1 ===
==== Wing 1's Start ====
At the very start of her Third Year of Middle School, as per usual nothing remarkable happened. Michitsugu didn't care about giving or receiving attention, which likely bothered Himeko and caused her to target her later on. Yet to Michitsugu, it felt unprompted, since she didn't do anything "warranting" that kind of behavior from her. 
==== Wing 1's Middle ====
Upon being targeted by Himeko, Hasumi, Ayaka, and Koriko, Michitsugu's barely-existent social life quickly shattered into pieces. Thanks to being bullied at school in numerous ways including being insulted, having things thrown at her, convincing people around to ignore her, and posting it online. Her old friends didn't help her and refused to be associated with her anymore, yet it's not like she'd go to them for help anyways.
