Miyako Hotsuin

Miyako Hotsuin is a character from Devil Survivor 2 Record Breaker. Miyako Hotsuin's face is similar to Yamato Hotsuin, but less pale, slightly more rounded and with larger eyes. She wears a white-purple butterfly-shaped ribbon on her hair, a JP's uniform with a black heavy trench coat with a scabbard hanging, a black dress, and high length yellow boots. She carries her whip beneath her cloak. In the Break Record ending, she is shown as a reborn human, wearing a white cape with a yellow ribbon in the front of the cape, a yellow dress in the same style as her previous black dress underneath the cape, and a pair of white boots. She also retains her white-purple butterfly-shaped ribbon on her hair. In contrast with Yamato, Miyako is shown to be more soft-spoken and well-mannered, speaking and referring to the protagonist and his friends politely (referring all of them as Mister or Miss, except Anguished One whom she refers to as Alcor). Miyako is more open in welcoming the opinions of others and is at least willing to hear them out first before voicing her own opinions. Aside from her politeness, she can be as cold as Yamato. Like Yamato, while leading JP's, she never shows her emotions and speaks nothing more than necessary to her subordinates. She expects her orders to be carried out as they are told and has little tolerance for disobedience. Just as Yamato has his pride as the successor of the Hotsuin clan, Miyako mostly acts in the name of Hotsuin. However, while Yamato leads JP's with an iron fist, Miyako leads JP's with more care. Another main difference between her and Yamato is that she is also more secretive, not giving a slightest bit of explanation to her own subordinates about her plan, taking the burden all to herself. Miyako is a selfless individual. This selflessness originated from her love for humanity. She sees all human lives as equally important, but at the same time believes that in order to gain something, one needs to give up something in return, and choosing the path leading to a smaller sacrifice is for the best. Therefore, she has no hesitation to sacrifice the lives of others and even her own if it means saving mankind. Ironically, her selflessness made her even more cold and callous, something that Miyako is aware of. After joining the party, Miyako shows more of her softer side, but is still distant due to her insecurities with her own existence, being that she is human yet a creation of Canopus (possibly, his Sword, therefore making her part of the Administrator System). She is afraid that her feelings are merely a fake so she can fulfill the role given by Canopus, making her hesitant to socialise with her new friends. At this time, she becomes emotional and even cried when telling the protagonist of her worries at the end of her Fate route. During the final battle with Canopus, she even calls them Shining One, as he has helped her overcome her own inner turmoil, similar to what he had done with Anguished One. While Miyako is mostly serious all the time, she becomes sneaky whenever talking to Yamato. She takes any chance or opening to tease him, enough to make the usually composed Yamato annoyed.
