Description
Soyo Nagasaki, originally Ichinose Soyo, is a first-year student at Tsukinomori Girls' Academy and the bassist for MyGO!!!!!. She previously played bass in CRYCHIC and performs double bass in her school's brass band club. Her appearance includes long, waist-length light brown hair, grayish-blue eyes, and a typically gentle expression. Her band outfit features a white turtleneck sweater with black cuffs, a black belt sporting a silver buckle, and a deep blue skirt layered with a long mesh overlay, complemented by black shoes adorned with chartreuse yellow crosses. Casually, she wears a blue-white blouse with short puffy sleeves and a frilly neckline, a cream-colored skirt patterned with small flowers, and a thin brown necklace bearing a star charm. Standing at 162 cm, she is MyGO!!!!!'s tallest member.
Frequent childhood relocations due to family financial struggles led to cramped apartment living before her mother's improved career brought them to a luxury high-rise residence. Despite the upgrade, her mother's absence fostered loneliness, prompting Soyo to handle household duties like cooking and caring for her overworked mother. She attended Tsukinomori at her mother's insistence and joined the brass band merely following classmates, lacking personal initiative until forming CRYCHIC. She met Sakiko Togawa after a brass band concert. CRYCHIC's abrupt disbandment deeply impacted Soyo, who had internalized Sakiko's belief that band members' fates were bound. Her inability to comprehend the breakup, fueled by fear of isolation, drove a desperate need to reunite CRYCHIC.
Her personality exhibits duality: perceived at school as kind, mature, and motherly, often advising peers and earning trust, this masks a cunning, selfish, and manipulative side. She habitually fiddles with her fingertips when scheming or deep in thought. Following CRYCHIC's dissolution, her fixation on reviving the band led her to exploit MyGO!!!!!'s formation. She joined solely to reassemble CRYCHIC's members, manipulating Anon Chihaya's recruitment efforts and feigning kindness to use her as a tool. Her facade shattered during MyGO!!!!!'s first live performance when they played "Haruhikage," a CRYCHIC-era song, triggering Sakiko's emotional exit. Soyo reacted with visible fury, shouting "Why did we play Haruhikage!?" and subsequently cut contact with the band.
In desperation, Soyo repeatedly contacted Sakiko, only to be blocked. She then coerced Mutsumi Wakaba into arranging a meeting where she begged Sakiko to return, vowing she would "do anything." Sakiko rejected her, accusing Soyo of selfishness and an inability to grasp the weight of her words, leaving Soyo devastated. She later admitted to Taki Shiina she had manipulated Tomori and Anon, dismissing Anon and Rāna Kaname as expendable for reviving CRYCHIC. She abandoned MyGO!!!!!, declaring her intent to destroy the band.
Soyo's redemption began when Anon visited her apartment, acknowledging the manipulation but offering acceptance. Initially resistant, Soyo attended Tomori's poetry event, was pulled onstage, and handed a bass by Rāna. During an improvised performance, she broke down in tears, leading to her reintegration into MyGO!!!!!. Post-reunion, she became bluntly honest, ceasing to conceal her true self. She confessed to Tomori she had previously disliked her lyrics for mirroring her own hidden emotions but now embraced them. She acknowledged she might never forget CRYCHIC and admitted feeling hypocritical about her school persona, recognizing her self-centered nature beneath the gentle facade. While cooperating with band activities, she made snide remarks, glaring at Anon over a poorly sewn "Anon Tokyo" tag and reluctantly sharing a stage outfit after Rāna mishandled it.
Following MyGO!!!!!'s debut, Soyo interacted with Ave Mujica, Sakiko's new band. She attended their concert at Nippon Budokan with Anon, appearing shocked when members unmasked mid-performance. Later, she confronted Mutsumi about Ave Mujica's activities and visited her during a breakdown after the band dissolved. Soyo facilitated a meeting between Sakiko and Mutsumi, leading to a reconciliation that symbolized CRYCHIC's true disbandment. She comforted Mutsumi afterward, maintaining their friendship by discussing future gardening plans. Throughout her development, Soyo's core struggle—fear of abandonment and difficulty moving forward—remained evident, though she gradually accepted MyGO!!!!! as her new place of belonging.
