Description
Kyōka Midarezaki, born Kyoukya Eaeriaea, hails from Shangri-la, an underground demon kingdom where she reigned as the revered queen Vanessa. As a member of a demonic race possessing the ability to inhabit human bodies, she relinquished her throne driven by a profound sense of existential incompleteness. Seeking to fully immerse herself in humanity, she deliberately erased her demonic memories and adopted a human form distinguished by striking black hair, deep green eyes, and a stature mirroring her husband Ōka Midarezaki. Her appearance retains distinct cat ears and a tail, presenting a youthful visage despite her actual age of twenty.
Serving as the Midarezaki family matriarch, her personality reflects her divine past, frequently manifesting as arrogance, egocentrism, and destructive tendencies. She habitually refers to herself in the third person while proclaiming omniscience and omnipotence. Beneath this exterior, she demonstrates genuine care for her family and actively strives to fulfill her role as Ōka's wife. Her attempts to emulate marital relationships—often drawing inspiration from manga and soap operas—routinely result in comedic or embarrassing scenarios. She exhibits fierce jealousy whenever Ōka interacts with other women.
Her abilities include "Keitai Denwa" (携帯電話), enabling telepathic communication and mind manipulation. This power also grants control over miniature dolls that assist her with daily tasks and emergencies. She is an exceptionally lethal chef; her cooking frequently displays supernatural properties, such as glowing ominously or gaining sentience, inducing family distress. Hyōka alone remains unaffected due to lacking taste buds.
Throughout the series, her perspective evolves from viewing the family solely through the lens of "Operation Cozy Family"—a government initiative to prevent apocalypse by identifying Enka's destructive heir—to developing authentic familial bonds. Initially declaring herself incapable of love, she gradually acknowledges her affection for Ōka and embraces her maternal responsibilities. Her backstory involves temporary memory suppression to conceal her demonic origins, though she later seeks reconciliation by returning to Shangri-la to uncover her past as Vanessa, leaving her mini-dolls with the family during this absence.
Notable quirks include assigning outlandish nicknames to others (e.g., "Pierre"), insisting recipients should feel honored by these "god-given" titles. She is the shortest family member, except when Gekka assumes her diminutive jellyfish form. Her characteristic dynamic entries, often involving door-kicking, have resulted in the family's ban from local establishments.
