Miki Naoki

Miki Naoki is one of the main characters of the Gakkou Gurashi! series, and the main protagonist of the sequel Gakkou Gurashi! ~Otayori series. She is a girl who eventually joins the School Life Club after being rescued during the members' outing (field trip) to the mall. Miki is a slim teenage girl of average height and build with straight neck-length blonde hair, dark blue eyes and she occasionally will wear round, oval-shaped glasses when doing school work (In the manga, Miki wore an eye patch on her left eye as it had gotten slightly injured in an accident. Later, when her eye healed, she removed it). Miki is usually seen with her school uniform, which consists of a short-sleeved white shirt, with frills at the sleeve. Part of the shirt, there is a green necktie and a blue ribbon hanging from it, indicating that she is in second grade. She also wears a green skirt, with four yellow buttons around her hip and waist. To finish off the look, she wears stockings that almost cover her whole legs except her thighs, and white shoes that are green at the tip. After the rescue, Miki was very grateful that they rescued her, but she hated the fact that Kurumi and Yuuri simply accepted Yuki's delusions. She even tried to talk about this with Kurumi, Yuuri, and even Yuki herself. From this, Miki began accusing Yuki of faking her delusions and began doing some research of her own. Later, Miki had come to accept and understand them, so she became kind and soft, began to smile more genuinely, as she opened her true self to the other members. She is especially close to Yuki and Kurumi. Though she accepted Yuki's delusions, she isn't sure how to handle delusions as Kurumi and Yuuri. When Yuuri became delusional about Ruu, Miki was unsure how to greet her and produced unsure reactions when someone brought up her. Miki also really enjoys reading books and is usually seen reading the book called The Stand. Miki is also very smart, and very good at her studies. Her friend Kei was impressed by the fact that she could read difficult books. She has somewhat of a dishonest and "tsundere" attitude, and Miki sometimes tended to not be honest with her feelings, but this changed over the story as she became very comfortable with the others and is seen saying the things that were on her mind, with the exception of some things. After her close friend, Kei, left the sanctuary, Miki was seen to be mentally unstable and quite fragile as she was seen breaking down since she was all alone. She was also apparently fine with living in the shelter, as she both had water and food, but after her Kei left she did understand that she wasn't okay with living a life isolated from the outside world, but she didn't want to lose as she did try to have a calm demeanor. After being rescued, she cheered up, but she still misses Kei very much, however, the support from the School Life Club keeps her moving forward. After meeting Yuki and the others, she can be seen often keeping a cool head, and doesn't act as scared in the school. She is also very brave, and this is proved as she went down to the basement alone to end Megumi, whom she had heard a lot of nice things about. Though she is very calm, mature and can handle different situations well, she can be very emotional in various situations; in either a joyful one (as she cried when she and the other graduated) or a stressful one. Miki is very mature and can be serious sometimes, though in the anime, she sometimes (though rarely) fools around with Yuki. Though she usually holds a quiet, frowning face, she does perk up and smile at times. Miki is very polite and kind, as she uses the honorifics and calls her seniors Yuki and Kurumi for "senpai". Though she is usually quiet, Miki is very caring and supportive, as she comforts her friends when they feel down, and gives them words of encouragement when they need it. Miki also said that she was uneasy in the situation she was in, but her seniors; Yuki, Kurumi, and Yuuri lent her a hand and welcomed her into their club, which made her gain confidence in herself, trust her own abilities and have the strength to face any trouble, which is why, she was no longer afraid. Miki also has a strong sense of right and wrong, as she ultimately threw away a gun she found before leaving the school, as an "accidental" discharge would be bad, despite the advantages their club would have with the gun.
