Summary

An innocent and carefree Magical Girl, Mito isn't afraid to be herself. She's usually laidback, but there are times when she says things that cut to the core. Mito lives in the same apartment complex as Leila and Seika, her two childhood friends who she truly treasures.

Doppel Description

The Doppel of unity. Its form is a coat. The master of this Doppel wishes for beautiful friendships to last for eternity. This Doppel answers that desire by compressing everything it captures into a single concentrated lump, which turns into an unbreakable crystal that will shine for thousands of years. Attacks by the Doppel are made by crystallizing its master's emotions, but continued use of this power causes even the master's memories to harden, making it impossible to create new ones.

Side Story

Mito heads to Kamihama City's Minagi Ward with Leila Ibuki and Seika Kumi. The girls decide to go visit the ocean. Mito wants to swim, but the girls didn't bring swimsuits. Mito suggests swimming in their clothes, but the other girls tell her off. Mito finds a plant native to the area, but doesn't know it's name until Konomi Haruna appears and says what it is. Konomi introduces and says she's there on business, as she works in a flower shop. Leila quickly thinks Konomi is like Mito.

Konomi says Seika looks angry, but she's just nervous around strangers. Konomi invites the girls to her store when it opens. Later, the girls go there and find Konomi working alone. Konomi says she has helpers but they're running late. It's revealed that her helpers, Kaede Akino and Kako Natsume, are chasing down a familiar. Unaware that Mito and company are magical girls, Konomi doesn't say anything about it. Konomi soon finds herself buried in customers.

Mito decides to help Konomi, and volunteers her friends to help as well. Seika worked behind the scenes, while Mito and Leila helped with the customers. Eventually, Kako and Kaede finally arrive. Mito is surprised to find she goes to the same school as them. Afterward, Konomi thanks the girls for their help and says her group can take care of things. Konomi asks them to visit the shop again and gives them a shop card.

Later, Mito gets an idea. She visits Konomi, Kaede and Kako in the flower shop, and explains that she's a real nature lover. Konomi says they're making a flower birthday cake, and invites Mito to help make it. Mito then explains that she wanted their help because she needs to get Seika something for her birthday. Konomi then gets an idea and thinks they should all make a "herbarium": A jar with preserved plants. Konomi says they can be used as gifts, and suggests Mito make some for her friends and herself. Mito eagerly agrees.

Mito thinks they should make something blue for Seika, red for Leila, and green for herself. Konomi suggests each jar should have all three colors. The girls pick out flowers for Leila and Seika, while Mito suggests clovers for herself. Konomi says they have to pick the clovers themselves, and suggests a place they can all go to.

The girls head back to Minagi Ward, where Konomi tries to find a clover patch she saw. Kaede thinks someone cut the clovers away and suggests they split up to look for more. As she searches, Mito begins thinking it's like acorn hunting. In the past, Mito told her friends she could hear the acorn's voice, but in the present thinks it's more like she wanted to hear it. She then senses something, and stumbles onto a familiar that's been picking clovers.

Mito attempts to fight the familiar, but finds she can't do it alone. She's then aided by Konomi, Kaede and Kako, who reveal themselves as magical girls. Kaede says magical girls really are connected. The four girls destroy the familiar. Afterward, Mito gives her gifts to Seika and Leila, and wishes Seika a happy birthday. She promises to give them a new herbarium every year, now that she has friends to help make them.

Etymology

• The characters in her last name mean "phase" (相) and "field" (野), respectively.

Trivia

• Her illustrator is Hanokage
• She may have been based on Robin Hood, due to the green colour theme, and overall merry look to her design and the fact she has a weapon which functions both as a bow and a blade may also be a reference to Robin's trademark weapons.
• Her soul gem is clover-shaped, clovers are commonly said to be symbols of good fortune and hope.
  • Considering she wanted to connect people, this may make some sense as to why her soul gem is that shape, she wanted to bring happiness back to her friends.
• Her Witch Name, Akakiy is a Russian name which means 'ugly, useless and hideous' in reference to her doppel's appearence, the name also means 'innocent' which may reflect her kind nature in return.
  • Based on her Doppel's description, it is also a reference to The Overcoat, a famous Russian short story starring a main character named Akaky (which can also be translated as Akakiy).
