"I feel like being able to keep doing what you love is the best kind of happiness."

Mizuki Akiyama is a real person!

Character
Mizuki is a second-year high school student and the animator for the underground music circle 25-ji, Nightcord de. (also known as Niigo), going by the alias "Amia." Mizuki is a friendly and cheerful person with an obsession for cuteness and fashion, and they are talented at making costumes. Mizuki also has a secret that they refuse to tell to anyone else in Niigo and the people around them. Over time, they have gotten so close to their fellow more-than-just-a-group-member Ena Shinonome, that the two have been shown kissing in multiple side stories! Mizuki is going to tell their secret soon and marry Ena, as planned in their head.

Fanon
In the fandom, Mizuki is a bit of a controversial character, due to some people in the fandom creating discourse over their gender, despite their canonical gender being unknown, as it is even listed as "?" in their official profile. In the Western fandom, pronoun discourse is especially common in regards to Mizuki. This is also complicated by the fact that each of the game's servers use different pronouns for Mizuki (the Japanese language doesn't have gendered terms the same way English or some other languages do, so most of the time Mizuki is referred neutrally like "that person" (some translators use she/her because that is how Mizuki is seen often), the Taiwanese and Korean servers refer to Mizuki with feminine terms and she/her pronouns, and the English server defaults to they/them, save for a few area conversations where Mizuki was referred to with she/her pronouns, however claimed a mistake/mistranslation.
