Description
Megumi Tokoro is a sixteen-year-old idol affiliated with 765 Production, a talent agency that serves as the central setting for her activities. She hails from Saitama Prefecture and celebrates her birthday on April 15th. Standing 159 centimeters tall, she has brown hair, blue eyes, and is often depicted with a distinctive ahoge, or cowlick. Her physical statistics are listed as 88-56-85, and her blood type is O. Before being scouted for her idol career, which occurred after being approached directly by the producer, she had prior experience working as a model.
In terms of personality, Megumi embodies the archetype of a modern and sociable high school girl, often characterized as a gyaru for her interest in fashion, makeup, and accessories. Her cheerful and approachable nature is reflected in her unique catchphrase, yahho, and her distinctive laugh, nyahaha. Her core motivation stems from a deep-seated desire to be needed by others; she derives genuine happiness from helping and supporting those around her. This manifests as an inability to refuse a request, making her a reliable individual who consistently puts her friends' needs first. She naturally reads the atmosphere of a room and is attentive to the well-being of everyone involved in a task, from fellow idols to staff. While her friendly and somewhat casual demeanor might suggest otherwise, she possesses a strong sense of duty and a professional work ethic, willing to perform any task required for her job without complaint. A notable, and somewhat contrasting, aspect of her personality is her extreme sentimentality; she is easily moved to tears by emotional events, such as the success of a concert or even a friend's happy news.
Her role within the 765 Production idol group is often that of a supportive leader or big sister figure. She is not the type to seek the spotlight for herself but instead excels at fostering team unity and ensuring everyone is comfortable. This is evident in her relationship with the producer, who often finds himself worrying about Megumi precisely because she worries so much about others. She views the theater and practice studio as a second home, a place where she belongs and can always return to, highlighting her strong emotional attachment to her fellow idols.
Megumi has several key relationships that define her journey. She is best friends with two other high school-aged idols, Kotoha Tanaka and Elena Shimabara. The three form an unofficial but tightly-knit unit often called Tristar Vision, frequently spending time together at family restaurants and supporting one another through the challenges of their careers. In the official unit GRAC&E NOCTURNE, which was formed for a vampire-themed stage play, she takes on the role of Edgar, a girl disguised as a boy who becomes a vampire. This involvement in a dramatic production allowed her to explore a different facet of performance.
Megumi's character arc primarily revolves around overcoming a lack of initial confidence. Unlike many of her peers, she did not have a lifelong dream of becoming an idol and felt insecure about her own cuteness and talent, worrying that she might be holding others back. Through the encouragement of the producer and her friends, and by experiencing success on stage, she gradually learns to believe in herself. Her first time as the center for a performance was a significant challenge, as she grappled with intense self-doubt before finding her footing. Her journey is one of embracing her role and recognizing that her supportive and caring nature is a strength that enriches the entire group.
Regarding her notable abilities and quirks, she has an exceptional memory for remembering people's birthdays. Her favorite hobby is singing karaoke, and she also enjoys going to drink bars. In a demonstration of her unexpected domestic skills, she is also capable of sewing, having been shown mending clothes for the producer and another idol.
