Shiba Miyuki is a first year student in Course 1 of the First High School. She is the younger sister of Shiba Tatsuya, though many doesn't realize at first, and born in March. She is a bloom, which is considered the upper class. She is currently the freshmen representative, and is well known throughout the school.
Described as very beautiful and draws attention everywhere she goes. But she is still modest and kind. She has a warm and loving nature, and defends her brother anytime she can.It is heavily hinted that she has romantic feelings toward her brother which she occasionally shows. She feels bad about being the "genius," while her brother is only a reserve magician as she thinks he is the real genius. Also, their father only cares about Miyuki, and ignores Tatsuya completely. Miyuki is very sad about that to the point where she either cries or gets angry when someone pities or downgrades her brother.
Miyuki uses half of her magic to limit Tatsuya's magic, as a side effect her magic goes out of control occasionally.Most occasions are those were Tatsuya's intelligence and genius behavior is not acknowledged, often making Miyuki freeze everything in a short range around her.

== Trivia ==
* Shiba Miyuki was probably based on the Hindu goddess Parvati, with whom she shares many similarities and parallels to. Parvati is often hailed as the most beautiful of all the goddesses and the most powerful; she was also extremely devoted to her husband, Shiva, and is his great love and the main reason for getting involved in earthly affairs despite his general indifference to everything. Moreover, Parvati's name in Chinese and one of her names in Japanese bear the "snow" character and roughly translate into "Snow Mountain Goddess" and "Celestial Snow Maiden" respectively.
* Some of Miyuki's spells (such as Inferno, Niflheim, and Cocytus) are named after a certain place or aspect of the underworld or afterlife.
* The kanji of "Miyuki" means "deep snow".
* True to her name, most of the spells Miyuki has displayed so far in the series are related to ice and/or freezing.
* Miyuki appears as a cameo in Durarara!! series. She appears as a painting in the side of Kyohei Kadota's van. After the door is broken by Shizuo Heiwajima during Saika arc, since then, Miyuki always appears in Durarara!! manga and anime series.
* An image of Tatsuya and Miyuki can be found in the ending credits of season 1 episode 24 of Accel World's anime, a poster advertising the manga appears episode 6.
* In a character popularity poll held on the official anime website of Mahouka, Miyuki was voted by fans as the 2nd most popular character in the series, just behind Tatsuya, amassing a total of 5,770 votes.
* Miyuki and Yukinoshita Yukino from the OreGairu series shares several similarities such as: they are both voiced by Saori Hayami, both have the "snow" (yuki) character in their names, being the top honor student in their respective schools, both are the deuteragonist of their series, they are both the second born child of their respective families while their love interest is the protagonist and the first born child. Coincidentally, Miyuki's mother: Shiba Miya and Yukino's mother are voiced by Kikuko Inoue making Inoue and Hayami once again portray a mother and daughter role respectively.
