## Summary

Pretty, popular, and adorable, the famous Eimi Inagawa takes the stage! It’s almost hard to believe someone so cute could be so klutzy, but Eimi’s little blunders make her all the cuter. Even so, she’s always doing her best, aiming to be the top idol! Her wildly successful solo career initially kept her from joining Interlunium, but a meeting with the members swiftly changed her mind. Despite strange rumors (common to an idol of her fame) Eimi continues to give it her all, in every single step. An idol, model, and actress, Eimi is a woman of many faces. But no matter which she wears, she hopes that you’ll continue to follow and support her on her journey to be the best!

## Background

On November 17th, Eimi Inagawa was born to prominent Yakuza member Ryoichiro Inagawa and his wife Kurenai Inagawa. Despite being born into such a dangerous lifestyle, Kurenai wanted their daughter to be uninvolved with her father’s work. They both decided to send Eimi to her maternal grandparents for the first five years of her life. They would still visit occasionally, but it was risky given their line of work. Despite being raised by her sweet grandparents, Eimi still had her father’s crude personality. It got to the point where her grandparents could not take it anymore and asked Kurenai to take Eimi back. Once back in her original home, Eimi took no time in becoming daddy’s little girl. All the Yakuza members took a liking to little Eimi and she used that to her advantage, having them bring her things like ice cream or snacks.

As she turned six her mother gave birth to her younger sister, Anzu, and the year after she gave birth to a son, Hansuke. During this two year period, Eimi spent an enormous amount of time with her father, even requesting to accompany him on “business trips.” He wanted to keep his cute and innocent daughter away from his work so he would always say no, but there was one time he took a trip to America and let Eimi come along with. She instantly fell in love with the beautiful blonde hair many foreigners had and decided that she wanted to have that hair color as well. She got her hair dyed before she moved back home and and would continue to get it dyed, even to this day. Eimi would also spend her time studying complex material for her age. She would soon be able to understand basic psychology and sociology within the same year.

Eimi quickly bonded with her two new siblings even though they were unable to communicate properly. She would try and teach them how to speak, much to her parent’s delight. In fact, some of those adorable interactions were recorded and were sent to a talent agency as a joke. Much to their surprise, the agency decided to call back and ask to see if Eimi wanted to be a model! She initially rejected the offer, citing that she would rather wait until she was older and the agency reluctantly agreed, adding that she can get in touch with them at any time if she ever changed her mind.
Eimi began to study the performing arts, learning how to sing, dance, and model. At school she received praise for her work ethic and talent, but despite this she didn’t consider herself a brainiac or anything. In fact she believed that anyone could achieve the level of capacity she has. Her talent did not go unnoticed by her parents, as they would still spoil her even as she grew older. This caused her already entitled personality to grow even worse. When she finally turned eleven, Eimi decided to call the modeling company and they gratefully accepted her. Due to her new job, Eimi had decided to grow out her short hair to have it be long and stylish.

Even with the new career path she was still a doting older sister, often teaching Anzu and Hansuke whatever she could and doing whatever she was able to do for them. She’d often invite them to photoshoots and one time even got some adorable pictures of the three of them in sailor suits. She secretly keeps that picture with her at all times. Despite being so young, Eimi continued to become a popular model. Her bright features and charming looks gave her the title of “Japanese Angel” which also helped clear some stigma round the Inagawa name. A few years later, when Eimi was fourteen, I MY ME contacted her and asked if she wanted to become an idol. After many long discussions with her parents, they decided that it should be their daughter who makes the final decision.

In order to become memorable, Eimi knew that she needed an image. She knew she wanted to come off as cute and clumsy, but she felt like she needed something else. She then decided to also incorporate the color yellow in all of her costumes as it was her favorite color. Once she debuted, she saw her popularity skyrocket. Her fanbase continued to grow to large numbers and the media would follow her everywhere. It was like everyone was watching her grow up and she did not feel comfortable with that. She soon requested that I MY ME put her back into training until she turned fifteen and then let her debut again. During that time, Eimi worked hard on distinguishing herself and building an onstage persona. She wanted to move away from the childish concept and move to something more mature and sexy. She wanted her costumes to have more sex appeal, showing both her cleavage and midriff but also wanted to contrast it with her innocent and clumsy personality.

When Eimi debuted again once she turned fifteen, her popularity skyrocketed. Her new design and style attracted a lot of older male fans, but there were no scandals and her perfect image was retained. Due to this booming success, I MY ME become one of the most popular companies to work at for both producers and idols. Everyone wanted to work with Eimi Inagawa. She had the looks, brains, and talent to be known all over Japan and soon rose up to be the highest paid solo idol in all of I MY ME. In regards to her distasteful personality, only a few producers knew of her other side, but most rumors that tried to spread were immediately quashed. Eimi is now sixteen and she will do whatever it takes for Interlunium to be the most popular group ever, after all, she’s in it.

## Personality

Eimi—when in front of her fans—comes off as a sweet and clumsy girl. She talks in a high pitched voice, and seems to always be blushing. When Eimi isn't in front of her fans, however, that whole facade fades away. She has a scowl on her face while expecting people, whether they be fellow idols or producers, to treat her like a princess. Thanks to this, Eimi has a hard time making legitimate friends and can often be isolated.
