When she is kidnapped by Myotismon's minions, she is wearing her pajamas, consisting of a pink button-up shirt with short puffy sleeves and puffy shorts. She also wears purple and dark blue sandal slippers.

In 2002, Mimi is taller than before and enjoys trying different hairstyles.

In 2005, Mimi's initial appearance has her wearing a casual outfit; a medium blue denim blazer with a white short sleeved shirt with front designs, pink pleated skirt and brown knee-high boots. Later she wears an Odaiba High School uniform as her school jacket is opened to show her sweater vest and wears a black headband on her head. During the battle against Alphamon, she now wears a white long sleeve shirt with neon pink heart designs and a black high heel design on front.

In 2027, Mimi wars a small pink cowgirl hat with a brown strap, a short coral dress with cream drawstrings, a brown belt with a big golden buckle, and a cream western-style jacket, as well as small hanging earrings. At work, she wears her hair in a slightly curled up style, more reminiscent of her natural hairstyle. She also wears a frilly pink full-body apron over a white dress and cream skirt, as well as stud earrings.

## Personality

Being raised in a sheltered life, Mimi comes off as prissy, spoiled and selfish. Underneath it all, she is actually a very sweet, purehearted and caring person, who is sensitive to the feelings of others and dislikes fighting. Mimi is also honest, sometimes brutally honest to the point where she unintentionally hurts others. She is very ditzy, and has a rather wild imagination. Through her adventures in the Digital World, she learns that sometimes fighting is necessary to protect the ones she loves, and becomes more confident and resilient. As a teenager, Mimi has shed most of her spoiled mannerisms, and is very confident and upbeat. she often talks of shopping and fashion.

Mimi is a talented singer (possibly being a reference to her voice actress singing the endings), as shown when she is at ShogunGekomon's castle. She also has an odd culinary taste; her favorite food is nattō, a dish made of fermented soybeans that is notorious for being an acquired taste due to its smell and texture. This is likely inherited from her mother, who makes meals like rice topped with whipped cream, and her father, who enjoys said meals.
