Personality
Mikage acts as a Tsundere when she is with people she doesn't really know well. Since she is from the geology team, she often try to spin things in favor for the geology team and would even try to "buy" people to join their team by giving them lucky rocks. She has her own beliefs on how things should be done, like when she didn't want to repeat the astronomy club's cosplay booth they did during the cultural festival.

Background
Mikage used to be from the Geology Research Society, but it was merged with the Astronomy Club into Earth Sciences Club this year.
