Mishy

Mishy (みっしぃ) is a grey and white cat that was originally introduced as the mascot character of Mishelam Wonderland in . After the release of the Crossbell arc, Mishy became the mascot of Nihon Falcom as a whole. Since then, Mishy has cameoed as a real cat in a number of Falcom games such as , their Ys series and is also referenced in Tokyo Xanadu.
Mishy has a sister named Mishette and also a rival in the form of a mechanized version of himself called Mecha Mishy, who is later revealed to actually be his long lost brother, Mischneider in . He additionally has an evil counterpart known as Evil Mishy.
==Profile==
===Appearance===
Mishy is a tall gray and white bipedal cat with a large head. He used to have slanted eyebrows but the modern version has small friendlier ones. Mishy has a long gray busy tail with a white tip.
===Personality===
Ever optimistic, Mishy is a champion of justice and friendship to all. Children (and many who are older) love him and his antics. He can sometime be rather bumbling, as opposed to his more level-headed sister, Mishette.
======
Tio Plato suggests wearing her Mishy pajamas when the Special Support Section visits Mishelam Wonderland in order to be incognito, but her idea is vetoed by the other members who feel it would only make her stand out more. One of the attendants at the entrance to theme park states that there is only one Mishy in the world, to which Lloyd Bannings comments that they must have really carefully scheduled shifts to pull this off. Tio tells him to not speak such heresy.
======
Courtesy of Mariabell Crois, the Special Support Section and members of Arc en Ciel are given a vacation at Mishelam Wonderland. Tio is excited to meet Mishy. She and the others learn of the latest fad - kicking Mishy to receive good luck. An optional sidequest allows Lloyd and a chosen partner to search throughout the park for Mishy's sister, Mishette. At the end of the vacation, Campanella uses magic to substitute an image of an evil clown in a hedge where Mishy normally appears, angering Tio.
Later on, the Special Support Section is called to Mishelam Wonderland on a support request. The request involves Lloyd searching as a substitute Mishy performer. At first, Tio is bereft at having her delusions regarding the nature of the occasion shattered. She, however, quickly rises to the occasion by shadowing Lloyd dressed as Mishette in order to audit his performance. Afterwards, Tio is again left in a confused state when the two of them meet the usual performer for Mishy - a butch man whom nobody would likely ever suspect for the role.

During the Thors Academy Festival, Class V hosts a game called Mishy Panic. The prize is a Mishy plush and the objective is to use a large mallet to smash the Evil Mishy character popping out of holes, while avoiding smashing either the normal Mishy or Mishette, which results in a point deduction.
Laura S. Arseid notes that despite the character having originated in Crossbell, she sees him quite a bit in the Empire and admits a certain fondness for him herself.
======
By Mishy is now extremely popular in Erebonia as well, probably due to the Empire's annexation of its country of origin. 
A new show is held during the Summer Festival in Heimdallr, during which Mishy is unexpectedly challenged by an individual named Mecha Mishy who declares himself to be the real Mishy. He knocks Mishy to the ground, but Mishy is able to get back up thanks to the audience's cheers. He then tells Mecha Mishy that it doesn't matter which of them is real, and the two of the sing and dance together, chanting the catchphrase "Let's dance and make a wishy... with Mishy."
In Vantage Masters, if the player lands Mishy during the initial coin toss, they play first. If however, Evil Mishy appears, their opponent plays first instead.
======
A costumed Mishy is a Vantage Masters opponent at Mishelam Wonderland, an entire park themed after Mishy. Merchandise themed after Mishy and his siblings is available throughout the park.
On the eventide of Operation Jormungandr, the joint forces of Mille Mirage and Operation Shining Steel are given exclusive access for an evening of fun inside the park. During the event, a new show is presented. The show was originally not scheduled to begin until the next month, but brought forward for the event. In it, Mecha Mishy reveals that that he is actually Mishy's long-lost brother, Mischneider, much to the delight of both Jingo and Tio Plato, who are both great fans of Mishy.
Campanella and Mariabell Crois use magic to project an image of Evil Mishy onto the door leading to them inside Tuatha De Danann.

Stub (peak mischneider fight subplot etc etc)

Mishy's character eventually ended up getting quite popular in Calvard as well, however its Calvardian design is quite different from the original: his eyebros are less tilted and the white fur on his face has a different pattern. Some Mishy fans dislike this new interpretation of the character, but many find it charming. 
Mishy is popular enough to even have an orbal movie about him: Mishy in Boots 
Calvardian A Rank Bracer Elaine Auclair is a massive Mishy fan
======
During Kuro II, The Trion Mall in Trion Tower Plaza hosts some Mishy shows for public events. The suit the Mishy perfomer wears is also different from the ones in other countries: the design is less stylized, more thin, humanoid and baggy.

Mishy is a rare creature, rarely seen by anyone. Mishy appears as a grey fur-coloured cat. It is marked by its cries of "mishishi". The innards of its ears are a soft red, just like a regular cat-based creature, and the ends of its tail in white. Mishy stands in the form of a human and never crawls on its paws.
