Movie
Description
Mikuru Natsuki is a female idol affiliated with Moonlight Office, later forming the unit WM with Mizuki Kanzaki. Born in Denmark, she relocated to Japan at age three. Her family runs Natsuki Greening Garden, a coastal gardening shop where Mikuru worked as a gardener both before and during her idol career. This experience granted her deep knowledge of flowers, which she often uses in floral comparisons when discussing people, objects, or coordinating outfits.
She possesses fair skin, sandy blonde hair streaked with noticeable pink, and distinctive heterochromatic eyes—one red, one purple. Mikuru typically styles her hair in two half-pigtails secured by mismatched barrettes: a yellow heart on the left and a blue star on the right, though she occasionally opts for a single ponytail. Her fashion specialty involves remaking outfits, aligning with her preferred west coast-inspired summer brand, Vivid Kiss.
Personality-wise, Mikuru is energetic, cheerful, free-spirited, and well-meaning. She frequently uses her signature phrase, "Are you ready to see Mikuru's Miracle?"—referencing her ability to spark positive, unexpected changes ("Mikuru's Miracle") both onstage and in daily life. Her optimistic outlook and gardening expertise were pivotal in her partnership with Mizuki Kanzaki. Their fated meeting occurred when Mikuru delivered flowers to Mizuki, a Starlight Academy student struggling to choose a concert coord. Mikuru resolved the dilemma by creating a "Good Coord," inspiring Mizuki. Witnessing Mizuki's performance captivated Mikuru with the power of sharing smiles with large audiences, contrasting her one-on-one flower shop interactions, and inspired her to pursue idol activities.
Debuting as Mizuki's partner in WM shortly after the Partners Cup announcement, Mikuru rapidly gained popularity rivaling established idols. Despite her late start and lack of formal idol training or attendance at an idol school, she proved capable of matching Mizuki's performances. Consequently, she has no basic coord, definite color scheme, or drama audition experience. Her idol career ran parallel to her gardening work until she won the Gardener's World Cup, becoming the world's top gardener. Her role in WM ended after Season 2 when the unit disbanded, though she later joined Aikatsu8.
Her relationship with Mizuki is defined by deep synergy; they act as complementary halves, with Mikuru’s spontaneity balancing Mizuki’s reserve. Their names share linguistic connections: both start with "Mi" and end with "Ki," while "Mikuru" derives from "miracle" (みらくる) and "Mizuki" incorporates "moon" (月). She also connected with Hinaki Shinjo through their mutual love for Vivid Kiss, collaborating on dress designs for the brand’s Top Designer.
Distinctive traits include being the first main idol with highlighted hair, dual-colored eyes, and no school-themed outfits. Her name reflects her character: "Natsuki" (夏樹) combines "summer" (夏), referencing Vivid Kiss’s aesthetic, and "tree" (樹), alluding to gardening; "Mikuru" (みくる) also implies "future" (未来), tying into Mizuki’s theme of "new beginnings." Her favorite foods are ice cream and soda.
