Mira

**Mira** (ミラ(みら), *Mira*) is a minor character of the series. She is an employee for the concept art team at the French games company, Blue Rose.

## Appearance

Her appearance gives the impression of someone who is into the gothic style of fashion. She has short hair and wears a ring-shaped earring on her left ear. Mira also wears a choker around her neck and wears a dark t-shirt with skulls, striped arm-sleeves, and a short skirt.

## Personality

Mira is the first person to criticise Towa's decision on letting Hotaru design the face of their new game, King's Hand, suggesting that she is rather forward with her own thoughts and is unafraid to voice her own thoughts. Her forwardness can make her a bit abrasive at times.

She is impressed and envious towards the skills that Kou and Hotaru possess, to the point where she thinks that it is simply a thing pertaining to the Japanese.

While working, Mira does not like to be stared at or interrupted. She gets flustered when her art is complemented.

## Synopsis

### Blue Rose

Mira expresses doubt over Towa letting Hotaru design King's Hand, because she has not done any work in a professional setting, despite her skill in art. She accepts Towa's reasoning and then shows Hotaru around the workplace, saying that she is quite busy.

### Learning

Hotaru asks how she is able to draw a certain part, and she explains that it was by referencing off of 3D models. They have a nice conversation, but Hotaru ends up talking so much that she tells her to shut up because she cannot get any work done.

A few days later, she takes a peek at Hotaru working, and is surprised by how good Hotaru is. She had learnt about 'matte painting' in a book, but it is all Japanese, so she cannot read it. Hotaru cannot read French books, after all. Mira remarks that she guesses this is what it means to have talent.

Hotaru modestly tells her that she was just learning from her method so it was all thanks to her, Mira wonders if she has any weaknesses because of how nice she is.

Later, she asks Kou if all Japanese people are that good at art, and Kou answers that Hotaru is just especially good, Mira concludes that she must be a genius.

### Reject

Mira interrupts Towa's evalutation of Hotaru's and Kou's King's Hand design to show her own. She was one of the employees who have been working on their own idea, Mira says that the person who does it will end up becoming famous, and everyone wants that. Unfortunately, her idea so far does not fit Towa's image.

Taking a look, Hotaru finds Mira's design interesting and just what she would expect from her. Mira blushes and wonders out loud why she grins when someone could steal her job.

## Relationships

### Catherine Towa Yamato

She seems to have a lot of respect for Towa as she eventually accepts her decision to let Towa deisng, and she is comfortable enough to share her own thoughts.

### Hotaru Hoshikawa

Mira was rather uptight towards Hotaru when she joined, but they have become more friendly around each other, though Mira is still extremely honest towards her positive outlook, and rather confused about it. When it comes to Hotaru's art, she believes that Hotaru is a genuis.

### Kou Yagami

She had come to the conclusion that Japanese people were especially talented, showing she has a lot of respect for the skill of Kou's art.
