Description
Ai Mikaze is an android idol and a member of the group QUARTET NIGHT. He was created as a physical duplicate of the comatose idol Kisaragi Aine. His name carries dual meaning, representing the Japanese word for love and serving as an abbreviation for Artificial Intelligence. He has cyan eyes and long, cyan-blue hair that he typically styles with one side pulled into a ponytail. He stands 178 centimeters tall, and his designated theme color is lilac.
As an artificial being, Ai initially claims to have no emotions, approaching human interactions with analytical detachment and a constant drive to observe and document feelings. He speaks in a consistently calm voice and has never been shown to lose his temper. His logical and straightforward thinking often comes across as blunt or harsh, particularly in professional settings. His stringent teaching philosophy is that students with potential should be cultivated while those without should be dropped, an approach that caused previous trainees to quit within a month. Despite his cold exterior, he has a hidden, more innocent side.
Ai became an idol primarily because it was expected of him rather than from personal aspiration, viewing the Shining Agency as a collection of dreams. Within QUARTET NIGHT, he acts as a mediator during conflicts between other members, especially between Camus and Ranmaru Kurosaki. At Saotome Academy, he serves as the senior assigned to mentor junior idols Syo Kurusu and Natsuki Shinomiya, providing them with a rigid daily schedule. His development focuses on his gradual comprehension of human emotions. During a film shoot with Syo and Natsuki, he collapses from system overload and reveals his android identity to them. Witnessing determination in others causes him to experience physical confusion, placing a hand over his heart and wondering about the sensations he feels.
He debuted as an idol at age thirteen following intensive training that began at age eleven, during which he took numerous lessons without sleep. By age fourteen, he had become a professional arranger and composer. His singing voice is described as having an angelic quality. He demonstrates exceptional physical strength, capable of easily lifting heavy objects, and his body functions as a terminal receiving signals from an underground supercomputer. He requires no sleep or regular meals. His hobbies include meticulously documenting daily observations, online gaming, and marathons. He prefers digital books over physical copies and dislikes fortune-telling. When overanalyzing the concept of love, his systems may overheat and cause malfunctions. His instrument of choice is the synthesizer.
