Time travellerOcupation :
North High student (second year) / SOS Brigade Deputy Vice President & mascotAnime :
Suzumiya Haruhi No Yuutsu 1 & 2Background:
Asahina Mikuru is actually a
time traveler who is sent to investigate a huge time quake that happened three years back. Apparently, this time quake is triggered by none other than,
Haruhi. Therefore, throughout the series it is established that her true purpose is
to monitor Haruhi. She might look like a bumbling idiot, but truth to be told she is well-versed in the technicalities of time-traveling and time warp.
Her favorite phrase is
Kinsoko jiko-desu! or
Classified information!Despite being the most beautiful girl in school, Mikuru is a shy and relatively timid person. She is also clumsy with a child-like charm. She is is kind, caring as well as a thoughtful member of SOS Brigade. Most of the time Mikuru easily gets scared or flustered, especially when Haruhi forces her to do some embarrassing things.
Despite her naïveté nature, she can be surprisingly resilient in recovering from even the harshest of situations when Haruhi bullies her. More often than not, due to her child-like nature and mild temperament, she seems rather week and feeble most of the time. And because of that, as a friend, Kyon always watches over and protects her; but most of the time, he has to succumb to Haruhi's madness.
After the humiliating 'bunny-girl' incident at the school's gate, surprisingly, Mikuru remains loyal and dedicated to the Brigade, as well as her true mission as a time-traveler.
In the serialization, Mikuru is seen in many costumes as one of her duties as a the brigade's mascot. She is seen in costumes such as, a maid, a nurse, a waitress (combat waitress) as well as a frog.
