Mariko Nagata

Appearance
Mariko is a girl of shorter stature who is slightly underweight. She wears the standard uniform for her school, sleeveless beige sweater, white button up, grey skirt, dark grey socks, and brown loafers. She has dark, plum purple hair kept in two thick twin-braids and light purple eyes. She wears round, thin-rimmed glasses and has pale skin.

Personality
Mariko is incredibly smart but easily annoyed. With extremely high grades and high expectations for her future, Mariko can often seen being irritable and unfriendly. She doesn’t often smile, and gets flustered easily when dealing with anything that’s bothering her. Mariko doesn’t like to admit to having emotions, often doing and living her life according to a logical, repetitive routine. She has a short fuse and little patience to deal with the "annoyances" around her, often being the one to drag the popular prince-like Kazue Yumehara away from her fangirls when she needs to work. While her controlling nature has made many label her as a buzzkill, she doesn't care much. Mariko is determined to do what she feels is necessary regardless of how much her unit members lament they want to have "fun".
