Description
Yuzu Midorikawa attends Shinjuku Takadanobaba Girls School and embraces the Japanese Gyaru subculture, evident in her distinctive fashion, liberal use of American teenage slang, and focus on appearance. She possesses olive-green shoulder-length hair featuring side curls, teal eyes, stands 157 cm tall, and weighs 47 kg with measurements of 88-58-87.
Her everyday look modifies the school uniform: a white short-sleeved top with blue stripes, secured by one strap and a green heart-buckled tie, revealing her midriff and a pink-and-black-frilled bra. She pairs this with a blue mini skirt, short baggy socks, black shoes, and accessories like a necklace, purple cloth bangle, ear piercings, rings, painted nails, and white-rimmed sunglasses often perched in her hair. Her racing outfit adopts Western beachwear: a lime green crop top with shoulder cutouts, denim shorts tied with a front string and hip straps featuring heart hoops, plus heart-design sandals showing her matching toenail polish.
Personality-wise, she delights in shopping, cute items, fame, and attention. Yet, she genuinely cares about others' feelings, regularly volunteering with her racing partner Manatsu Shiraishi at a nursing home, an activity that brings her deep fulfillment. Her speech heavily incorporates exaggerated slang consistent with Gyaru expressions.
In jet racing, she partners with Manatsu Shiraishi as team MKHU. Initially motivated by boredom and a desire for fame and fortune to enter the Kandagawa Cup, early clashes with teams like the Sea Serpents arose over their superficial approach. Their perspective shifts over time; they prioritize bringing joy to elderly nursing home residents over personal gain, reconciling with rivals who recognize this growth. They win the Kandagawa Cup while pledging to continue racing for others' happiness.
Across various teams' storylines, she frequently mediates conflicts or playfully teases members about their close bonds. For instance, she observes Rin Namiki and Misa Aoi's relationship with mild embarrassment and comments on their dynamic. She also creates opportunities, like arranging a meeting between the Unkai Surfers and a manga artist at her nursing home.
In the OVA, she collaborates with Manatsu on a jet racing promotional video after their formal submission is rejected. Their fun-focused approach highlights camaraderie: washing the jet ski ("Orcano") with Rin and Misa, participating in shrine ceremonies with fellow racers, and coordinating impromptu plays. Despite missing the revised deadline due to last-minute edits, their lighthearted, fanservice-oriented video starkly contrasts the committee's preference for straightforward information.
Her interactions include whispering in Manatsu's ear, cooperating to tickle another character, being fed an orange slice by Emily Orange, directing Manatsu to a rival's weak spot in a bathhouse, and openly discussing ways girls can "have fun together" while partially undressed.
