Mem-Cho

Mem-Cho, real name unknown, is a major supporting character in Oshi no Ko manga series. She is a popular Youtuber, former Tik-Toker, and a member of the revived B-Komachi. Missing her chance at becoming an idol due to family circumstances, she nonetheless managed to become a popular streamer, with her renown securing her a spot on the reality dating show LoveForReal. Following the show's conclusion, she was finally given another shot at her dream when fellow cast member Aqua invited her to join B-Komachi, with the other members accepting her despite being far past the ripe age of an idol. Mem-Cho is described as being attractive, cute, and innocent. She has aqua-colored eyes, brown hair dyed blonde, a cat smile, and small devil horns. Despite being twenty-seven, she looks younger than she is. Mem-Cho is generally playful, bubbly and somewhat mischievous, which makes her look adorable to any onlooker. In some regards these characteristics could be perceived as lies to protect herself and allow her to fake her age and portray the persona of a typical high schooler. Mem-Cho is overall a person burdened by circumstances. Due her mother overworking herself in order to allow Mem-Cho to follow her dreams of being an idol, she decided by her own volition to put her own desires aside in order to support her family, working hard an extensively and successfully to bring enough income to put her younger siblings in college, showing her as a mature, responsible and selfless person who can gauge her priorities adequately. However, by the time their financial situation was stable, she was far too old to pursue her dreams, due to the discriminatory demands from most agencies. Ultimately she turned her passion into streaming by portraying herself as a "High School Student" gaining a massive following. This eventuality, shows her as crafty in the making of her online character; she's technically not lying due to having put her high school studies on hold, but is also self-aware of her public perception. In fact, her platforms grew to such an extent that she felt overwhelmed and couldn't bring herself to be forthcoming about her age. Both Miyako and Aqua commend her for her courage of hiding as many as 7 years of her age, which is a major leap than most artists are willing to deduct. Mem-Cho cares greatly for B-Komachi and its members, for it is a place that allows her to fulfill her dreams of being an idol, where she is accepted and supported despite her age. Even then, Mem-Cho is more of a fellow peer than an older figure, behaving more closely to how Ruby and Kana do, as high schoolers, than as the adult in the room. Even though her guise is well known by them, Mem-Cho remains about the same as what she portrays herself in the open; energetic, cheerful, earnest, a hardworker and a reliable friend and coworker. An empathic person by nature, Mem-Cho goes to great lengths to ensure the wellbeing of her peers, taking an active role in creating an advertising campaign to change Akane's public perception after the latter attempted suicide. She is also overwhelmed by the love triangle between Aqua, Akane and Kana, not knowing who to root for.
