* Idol
* Suicide Girl

**Manten** (満点, lit. "Perfect Score), is one of the protagonists of Suicide Girl, and is an Idol singer and Suicide Girl alongside Akane and Kirari and is the Manger's niece and the first Suicide Girl that Kirari meets.

## Appearance

Manten is a young, slim woman with short blue hair and dark purple eyes, with several concentric circles in her irises. When performing as an Idol, Manten wears an extremely stylized outfit consisting of a black skirt with dots, black boots with several bows, a large bow on her neck, dark sleeves and a large butterfly bow.

In her casual attire, Manten wears much simpler clothing, consisting of a dark, fuzzy sweater, black choker and black leggings, but she keeps the butterfly bow on her head.

In her Suicide Girl Outfit: **Hand-Cut Maiden**, Manten wears all black clothes, consisting of a simple dress and thigh high boots, with a large silver bow around her waist. Her sleeves and skirt have an ornate pattern and she wears geta (wooden sandals).

## Personality

To her fans, Manten appears as an extremely cheerful and happy person, bringing light into their world, as noted by Kirari. However, when not on the job, Manten is extremely reserved, quiet and occasionally aggressive. She thinks that suicide isnt a bad thing a that everyone deserves to choose how they die, but she has deep hatred for Phobia as they take away that choice and the person's dignity.

Manten feels she's too beautiful and talented, and finds very little pleasure in life - as such, she has a very cynical view of other people and struggles to sympathize with them, having never made friends, and wanted to become the ultimate idol forever. However, after Kirari defeated Yugame, she starts trying to befriend her fellow Suicide Girl, albeit with too much intensity and clumsiness, such as saying now they get to do "friend stuff like kissing and chatting whenever" and sneaking into her room at night. Though it is heavily implied that Manten actually has romantic feelings for Kirari.

Manten also shows that she deeply cares for Kirari and doesn't want to see her hurt, and says that Kirari is "the light of her life". She says that if anything happens to Kirari, that she would put everything on the line to protect her. She has also changed drastically due to meeting Kirari, becoming a lot for sociable and outgoing as a result, with the staff describing her old self as "never letting anyone getting close to her personal space, and had an aura like an offensive shield", but "now is striking up small talk with the staff all the time". Manten also develops a fierce determination to keep going, as shown when the show of her returning back was about to get cancelled, Manten striked back, saying that the show must go on.

## Plot

Ever since she was a child, Manten has been lauded over for her many talents, such as dancing and singing, and her beauty. She quickly became a famous singer, model and eventually Idol, and she saw how happy other people were when they saw her perform - but in time, she grew to feel burdened by her beauty and no longer found it fulfilling, eventually deciding to kill herself in a fittingly beautiful manner.

She resorted to her uncle, and when the smoke failed to kill her she was tasked with becoming a Suicide Girl, a mission she initially resisted but eventually accepted and dedicated her life to. It is shown in one of the earlier chapters, being "The Ultimate Idol Forever", was that Manten was actually one of the children that was at Enya's church, which is where Yukiko took her in from.
