Misato Honjo is a 25-year-old military operator stationed at Tateyama Air Base. Standing 168 centimeters tall, she is the tallest member of the base's operator trio. Her collarbone-length brown hair is usually styled in a rope braid, and she has green eyes. Her standard duty attire is a navy blue uniform. She once aspired to become a Valkyrie, undertaking the First Valkyrie Selection Test alongside colleagues Yayoi Amatsuka and Akira Jinguuji. Her path changed irrevocably during the First Hamamatsu Defensive Battle, where she sustained a critical injury while shielding her friend Sonoka Watarai from an enemy attack. This injury permanently disqualified her from Valkyrie service, leading her to transition into an operator role at Tateyama Base. As an operator, Honjo coordinates missions and provides tactical support for Valkyrie units. She performs her duties with diligence and reliability, earning the trust of her superior, Commander Ichiro Satomi, who previously supervised her directly. Her personality is serious, responsible, and organized, sometimes causing friction with less disciplined individuals like Yayoi Amatsuka due to their differing attitudes. Though outwardly calm, she possesses a strong internal resolve and sense of duty. A notable physical trait is her inability to perceive certain high-pitched sounds. Her key relationships stem from her service: a profound bond formed with Sonoka Watarai through her protective act at Hamamatsu, and a complex dynamic with Yayoi Amatsuka rooted in their contrasting approaches to responsibilities.
