Personality[]

Mika is a kind-hearted and encouraging mother, as she understood along with her husband when their daughter, Kyoka, stated that she wanted be a Hero rather than a musician like them. She understood that choosing a career path is a big decision and also told Kyoka that she can help others, both as a hero and with her music.

History[]

At some point, Kyotoku fell in love with Mika's musical talent, which led to them getting married and have a daughter named Kyoka Jiro.

Kyotoku and Mika's love for music was inherited by Kyoka who started playing instruments at a young age. Believing that her parents' desire was for her to follow their footsteps and become a musician, Kyoka was apologetic when she confessed that she wanted to be a hero. However, Kyotoku and Mika dismissed her apologies and expressed their support for Kyoka to pursue her dreams.^[1]

Synopsis[]

Hideout Raid Arc[]

Mika is first seen alongside Kyotoku when he was confronting Shota Aizawa and All Might over their request to take Kyoka to live in U.A. High School; however, Kyoka showed up and revealed that her father had already decided in advance to let her go. When they started bickering, Mika told both to calm down.^[2]

Abilities[]

Musical Talent: Mika is a skilled musician, although it's currently unknown which musical instrument she specialises in playing.

Quirk[]

Earphone Jack (イヤホンジャック, Iyahon Jakku^?): Mika's Quirk gives her a pair of headphone jacks hanging from her earlobes. Assuming that her Quirk is the same as her daughter's, she can plug the jacks into objects and channel the sound of her heartbeat into them in the form of a super violent vibration. She would also be able to extend her earlobes several meters.
