Myu (ミュウ, Myū?) is a main character from the Arifureta: From Commonplace to World's Strongest series.
She is a young dagon girl that was saved by Hajime and Shea in a kidnapping incident during their stay in Fuhren. After the incident, she initially had been calling Hajime as "Onii-chan", but later changed it to "Papa."
Appearance
Myu is a pretty young girl with long wavy emerald-green and sky blue eyes. As a dagon, her ears are fan-like fins, and has webbed hands and feet.
Personality
Myu is a kind and obedient child. She is also quite brilliant, as stated by Hajime. Before meeting Hajime, Myu was spoiled and would constantly throw a tantrum. However, after being kidnapped, she has matured a lot and is now more compassionate but would still be occasionally spoiled (particularly regarding Hajime).
Myu is very impressionable and has developed various traits, both good and bad, as a result of the time that she has spent with the Nagumo family. One such example is Shea's reckless driving habits, which in Myu's case, revolves around using remote-controlled toy aircraft's to get into dogfights with the air force. She has also adopted Hajime's otaku interests and is deeply immersed in it. She enjoys watching various anime, and plays a lot of video games, such as Monster Hunter.
As a dagon, Myu enjoys spending time in the water. She especially loves swimming out in the ocean and allowing the current to carry her while floating on the water.
Due to the traumatic events she experienced at a young age, Myu has become desensitized to many things that a lot of people would consider to be terrifying, such as ghosts. However, she has developed a fear of deserts, as a result.
After arriving on Earth, Myu has developed militaristic traits and enjoys giving orders while acting like a drill sergeant. She is very eager to fight whenever she is confronted by an enemy and always follows Hajime's philosophy of showing no mercy to her enemies.
Myu is very charismatic, and can quickly befriend almost anyone she comes into contact with. However, her good nature combined with an eagerness to help those who are in trouble means that she will not think about the consequences of her actions, and can cause those she interacts with to misinterpret her intentions. On several occasions, it has even lead to confrontations between those who want Myu's attention.
Despite all of the training and artifacts that she has received from her family, Myu laments her own powerlessness and wishes to become stronger to protect what she cares about.
