## Personality

A gullible yet kind and friendly man with a passion for music. While it’s not always the easiest task, and he’s fairly easy to read like an open book, he does his best to stay organized and professional. He’s overly neurotic and cautious about his public image and that of his unit’s, in a love-hate relationship with the spotlight. While he wants recognition and attention for his work, too much pressure can cause him to get paranoid and overemotional— he’s very worried about what other people think of him, and especially values his family’s opinion.

## Appearance

Michiru is a tall young man with a good build. He has mid-length, slightly unkempt black hair and light, blue-colored eyes. He also has a beauty mark under his left eye, and sharp canines which are more noticeable when he smiles.

## History

Born to a high-prestige family of old money in Tokyo, Michiru was raised with high expectations in mind— quickly learning to keep his mouth shut as an only child who faced mountains of scrutiny from his family members. Secretly, during his early teens, he turned to music to cope with his stress, eventually convincing his parents that an idol career would help establish him in the entertainment industry and securing a spot at Reimei Academy.

Having virtually bribed his way into the school, and eventually joining and rising through the ranks of the Student Council as a result of his family’s influence as well, Michiru was desperate to prove himself to the rest of the school— and that opportunity soon presented itself in the form of his classmate, Oreki Nakashima. A lazy, eccentric genius who Michiru was drawn to, yet absolutely sure he couldn’t stand— the opposite of who he’d been raised to act like, who he formed a unit with in their second year.

Eventually, the two of them grew closer together & lost the animosity between them. When they weren’t clashing, they worked surprisingly well together— and they still are, graduating and working as professional idols for Cosmic Productions over 4 years later.

## Relationships

**Oreki Nakashima**

Michiru's long-time unitmate and best friend. While they initially clashed at first, he's now one of the only people Michiru feels he can 100-percent place his trust in. Unbeknownst to the public, him and Oreki have only recently entered a romantic relationship together, and they are determined to keep it hidden from the public for the sake of their careers.

**Megumi Mizuta**

One of Michiru's closest friends from high school. Having lost contact with her after his graduation until fairly recently, he still regards her as trustworthy, but has a feeling there's something new about her he hasn't been able to grasp at yet. He secretly doesn't mind her friendly teasing, even though he throws fits about it in public.

**Sage**

His unit's producer, newly-appointed by Cosmic Productions against his and Oreki's wills. Having been the one to handle Capriccio's busywork beforehand, he doesn't know how he feels about Sage's presence just yet.

## Trivia

* Michiru’s uncannily sharp canines & tendency to sunburn have jokingly earned him a reputation as a ‘vampire’ among idols— something he finds fun to play along with.
* He’s surprisingly good with domestic activities, and often makes food compulsively when he’s stressed out, leaving him and his roommate with too much food for any two people to eat on their own. He’s also an avid HGTV watcher in his spare time.
* Michiru can play both guitar and electric bass, though he prefers the latter. He’s a huge fan of cheesy American rock n’ roll music.
* If he wants to keep something a secret, he doesn’t say anything about it at all— Michiru is an awful liar.
* He speaks both Japanese and English.
