Mia is a kind and shy girl loved by all idol Corp members. Mia exudes cuteness, but also is particularly good at roasting and threatening. She uses these social skills to make pressure and get what she wants. In fact, many in idol fear her naturally, notably because of her skills when it comes to fight in game.

She wears a light outfit including: a cat collar with a bell, a white jacket, a black and pink top exposing a cleavage and putting in value her large chest, a black skirt, and many green belts.
