Miki Steinbeck is a supporting character in the anime Tenchi Muyo! GXP Paradise Starting. Her origin is unusual: she was originally created as an artificial intelligence and later transformed into a humanoid form with cabbit traits, making her a hybrid being. She is also revealed to be the reincarnation of Mitsuki Sanada, the main heroine from an earlier work Dual! Parallel Trouble Adventure. In the events of Paradise Starting, Miki arrives on Earth alongside Seina Yamada and the others after their adventures in space. Initially, Seina believes she has died, but she is very much alive and present when the group settles into life at Masaki Village. She is warmly welcomed by the local community and quickly integrates, offering to help with farm work and other daily tasks. Personality-wise, Miki is shown to be friendly, cooperative, and close to Tsukiko Masaki, sharing a notably affectionate bond with her. Her motivations center on supporting Seina and Tsukiko and adapting to her new life on Earth. While her specific abilities are not highlighted in the anime, her hybrid nature and advanced origins imply she possesses capabilities beyond those of an ordinary human. Her role ties together elements from the broader Tenchi Muyo GXP storyline, bridging the transition from space-faring adventures to a more grounded rural existence.
