Midori Naha, a sharp-tongued and conceited first-year junior high student, masks her pessimistic worldview beneath a veneer of arrogance. Gifted with keen intelligence and telepathic abilities, her parents’ fear of her powers fostered deep-seated alienation and self-doubt, fueling an anxious habit of covertly reading others’ thoughts to gauge their perceptions of her.

Introduced as a transfer student with a antagonistic streak, she initially targets the protagonist for ostracization before shared confrontations with adversaries forge an uneasy alliance. Though her journey shifts from isolation to collaboration, her ego and craving for attention remain intact. A schoolgirl crush on the protagonist’s older brother punctures her aloof facade, triggering comically abrupt shifts between haughtiness and flustered vulnerability.

Her psychic arsenal—telepathy and telekinesis—relies more on precision than raw power, distinguishing her from peers. Abandoned by her parents, she resides alone in a lavish apartment, filling solitary hours with eating contests, historical dramas, and a peculiar fondness for cuttlefish.

A concealed Kansai accent betrays her efforts to project refinement, while childhood memories of playing violin for her grandmother reveal fleeting glimpses of tenderness beneath her guarded exterior. A fear of needles and sporadic tsundere outbursts soften her competitive pride, adding layers to her complex persona.

Her dynamic with the protagonist evolves from rivalry to mutual respect through joint resolution of supernatural crises, mirroring broader themes of self-acceptance and trust. As Midori navigates societal bias against psychics, her gradual embrace of identity and connection underscores a tentative journey toward belonging.
