* Magical girl

**Mami Tomoe** is a supporting character in Persona Record Series and one of the main protagonist of Persona Magica. She is A Magical Girl who has been fighting Witches in Mitakihara longer than the others. A 3rd year at Mitakihara Middle School. She is experienced and takes care of Madoka and her friends. She is proud of being able to save people, and loves tea.

## Background

A year ago, Mami's family was involved in a car accident that left Mami seriously injured and her parents died at the scene. While Mami was breathing faintly, she met Kyubey and hurriedly told her wishes that she had no time to think, thus becoming a magical girl.

After she became a magical girl, she did the job of getting rid of the witch, as all the magic girls did by themselves, that there was no time like ordinary students. Until one day, she meets Kyoko Sakura, a magical girl from Kasamino City who has come to hunt a witch. The meeting of the two leads them to become a partner, with Mami teaching Kyoko how to become a skilled fighter. But after less than a week as a partner, Kyoko asks to part ways with Mami, causing Mami to regret deeply and to fight alone again.

Until she meets Madoka Kaname and Sayaka Miki trapped in the Witch's Labyrinth while they save Kyubey from being hunted by Homura Akemi. Mami learns that the two of them are the ones Kyubey chose to be Magical Girls, so she provides information about the Magical Girl and the Witch and shows her battle, but less than three days after she got to know the two girls, she was killed by a witch named Charlotte in front of Madoka and Sayaka.

After that, Madoka decides to make a covenant as a magical girl to wipe out all the witches from the universe. Madoka's wishes bring a dead magical girl, including Sayaka, Kyoko and Mami, to come back to life in her new world, happy to live with her representative body.

## Appearance

Mami has very curly blonde hair, usually in twin drills. She has yellow eyes. She wears a uniform-like outfit, with a checkered skirt and a beige coat.

### Magical girl

In her Magical Girl form, she has beige skirt with black tips, and her top is a short-sleeved white shirt with puffs and arm warmers. In between her skirt and her top, she has a brown corset-like clothing garment. She also has a small brown hat with white fur coming out of it, as well as gray and white striped leggings, and black and yellow, knee-high boots.

## Personality

Mami Tomoe appears to be a very kind, gentle, and cheerful girl. She is shown to have feminine tastes, such as drinking tea and dressing with flower clips in her hair and bows on her shoes. Mami enjoys hosting tea parties. She has been shown to be a rather good cook, especially when it comes to dessert. A kind senior to Madoka, she’s the helpful, sisterly type. She lives alone in an apartment after her parents died in a car accident.

She has a strong sense of personal justice, which keeps her on the path of helping innocents despite gaining little reward for it. This sense of justice also makes it difficult for her to team up with other magical girls for more than short periods, as many will only fight witches for the chance of finding a Grief Seed or in self-defense, and many others are against teaming up with their "competition" in hunting witches. These circumstances compound with her lonely nature as an orphan who has trouble making friends at school due to her having little time for much outside of witch hunting, which has turned Mami into a very isolated person looking for friends. While she appears to be mentally strong, Mami is emotionally much frailer than she seems to be.

She has been shown to take the harsh truths of the magical girl system quite badly depending on the circumstances, and at times has proven to be unstable and dangerous when confronted with them.

Mami always uses honorifics and calls people by their surname with the honorific '-san'. This shows her age and emotional distance to the other girls, who are younger than her and closer in age to each another.

## Abilities

Mami's choice of weapon is a gun or two and ribbons. Her ribbons are tied around her neck and can be used to cut things or to tie people up, like a trap. They can also turn into a giant gun. Her guns are stylized after the 1600s styles of rifles with burning fuses and a single bullet, hence she shoots a rifle once before discarding it. The rifles are summoned from her own body and the larger guns follow the same mechanic. She is shown to be a skilled fighter. She has fought evenly with Homura Akemi.

## Doppel Description

"The master of this emotion trusts not in it and battles on, regardless of its presence. This Doppel is very small compared to other Doppels and always sits on its master's head, so the master is hardly aware of it. It is doubtful that they communicate, so its master fights normally while it supports her. It is small and looks unreliable, but its vines are powerful enough to penetrate any enemy."

## Relationship

### Madoka Kaname and Sayaka Miki

Mami's junior. Mami takes care of Madoka and Sayaka like a sister.

### Homura Akemi

A mysterious magical girl who comes with a certain purpose. At first, she and Homura (No eyeglass ver.) are enemies, as Homura prevents Madoka from becoming a magical girl and kills Kyubey without looking at the situation. Even Homura warned Mami, she didn't listen until in the end she had to die because of her distrust.

If it was Homura wearing glasses, Mami would always look after her and give her advice.

### Kyoko Sakura

Mami's old partner. At first Mami and Kyoko are a magical girl partner who hunts witches together, but because Kyoko's great loss forces her to break apart from Mami, Mami has to fight alone.

### Nagisa Momoe

Mami takes care of Nagisa like a younger sister.
