Mikoto Asuka (飛鳥 美琴 Asuka Mikoto) used to be one of the three Vice-President and the secretary of the Student Council. She was the president of the Shogi Club, prior to Ushio using the Amnesia power to erase everyone's memories.

Appearance

Asuka is a girl of average height, with long indigo straight-cut hair. She has a slender figure and like most females in the series, she has large breasts. Her attire consists of the Suzaku High uniform. She is seen with her hair down and a hairband.

Personality

Not much is known about Mikoto, but according to Ryu, she is "that girl I always see with the president", indicating that her relationship with Haruma Yamazaki is close. She seems to be protective of the president, if not more as she politely warns Odagiri not to include him in her circle of friends if not she would have to intervene. Beneath that layer of pleasantness, Mikoto seems to be hiding her slyness and cautiousness. She is also capable of giving a malicious aura to anyone who tries to defy her goal, as well as mocking those she deems unworthy. While normally a cool and aloof person, Mikoto can show a moment of fear and anger as seen from her reaction to Shinichi's confidence in his intention. She is also capable of giving sympathy to others, shown when she wanted to help Ryu find a way to remove Maria's ability.

She was described as beautiful, smart, athletic and influential, and was considered to be quite popular and well-known among most students. However she did not want this and would rather be a normal student.

She is shown to be quite sadistic as seen when she tortures Ryu due to her falling for his charm power. And later before leaving Suzaku High School for college, she brought out a whip.

History

During her first year, due to her natural born beauty and being the daughter of the president of a famous company, she quickly became the topic of conversation. Added with her excellent grades and unmatched motor skills, she attracted the attention of all the students in school. However she felt pain from this, as she wanted to be an ordinary student.

During her second year, Mikoto was previous secretary of the previous president of the Student Council.

Mikoto was later gathered by the previous president along with five "smartest" female students in the school for an unknown ceremony. The ceremony made her a witch with the power of Invisibility.

By November, she was chosen by Haruma to be his secretary. With this she felt like she could be an ordinary student. Around this time, she had the Witch Killer Shinichi Tamaki take away her power for an unknown reason.

As Jun is shocked to hear this, she adds that with both events, makes a very curious situation. After the president states he could care less about the situation, she sits down to have a snack with them. She then watches as Toranosuke leaves the room, noting that he didn't want to ruin his appetite as she continues eating.

In the Student Council Office, Mikoto is surprised to hear that Urara wants to go to college. She states that it brought favor to Toranosuke, and that Nene needs to catch up.

She warns him that rules are made to be followed, even if they are not on campus she states that she can not sit idly when presented with debauchery. She states her name as he realizes who she is, as she also sends a picture of him and Urara to Haruma.

He asks what she is after and what was she trying to accomplish with the Shogi Club, which she stops playing and gives him a sly smile. She continues to play, as he asks again. She asks him on why he is interested. After he gives his answer, she claims that she wanted to spend some time and being the secretary gave her a recommendation for college. She notes that she appreciates Haruma and Ushio, stating that they're still good friends. He retorts that she doesn't know what they are doing, which he decides to use force to reveal her real intentions. She looks back, and remarks on what a dirty doll he has, which upsets him. As he aims to kiss her with the doll, she quickly jumps and uses a music stand like a sword against Ryu. She aims for him again, as he dodges it became stuck to the wall as she struggles to get it out. She stops another of his attempts, by throwing a stand at his doll, making it hit the wall. She picks up two more stands, claiming he will meet the same fate. She runs towards him, and jabs them by the floor near his arms, asking him his honest answer. She asks why he is persistent about her, as he gives his answer, she steps on him. He finally reveals his real reason, wanting her to graduate with a smile.

Ryu wants Mikoto to graduate with a smile

Hearing this, she stands and calls him a nuisance. She rests by the piano as she explains that her reason for joining the Shogi Club; was to find a replacement for Haruma. She asks him on what he thinks of her. After he gives his answers, she responds that that is how other students see her. She explains that due to her natural skills, she became the topic of conversation for the other students, however she only wanted to be normal. During November of her second year, she became the secretary of Haruma, adding that with him, she could be an ordinary student. She was happy that she could be of use to someone, but after the term was over she was alone again. Ryu notes that she approached Ushio about the Shogi Club, she notes that he was in the same position she was. She thought he could be able to replace him, however she states that he was not. She asks him if he's interested, causing him to fluster and deny. Though he notes that she still has feelings for Haruma, causing her to blush. He informs her of his idea and tells her to come to the Supernatural Studies Club room after the graduation ceremony.

Rika and the others graduate with smiles

The next day, after the graduation ceremony, Mikoto hides by some boxes in the club room. After Haruma reacts to his rejection, she reveals herself from her hiding spot, noting that he has taken an unfortunate turn.
