Character Number: Six
Character: Takano Miyo; real / birth name: Tanashi Miyoko (both Japanese order)
Fandom: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni
Personality: Miyo's outward persona is that of the village's local (and rather attractive, considering every woman in this series has huge honkers) nurse. She's rarely seen without a tiny smirk on her face and sees to have great pleasure in teasing (sometimes even bordering on mocking) other people. Sometimes it's rather innocent, like light love-related teasing, but sometimes it can also become a bit more sinister. In fact, Keiichi once remarks in his narration that it seems like Miyo enjoys torturing people with words and he is exactly right in that observation. She's the kind of person who absolutely loves teasing and mocking other people and seems to be rather apt at reading people in general. You could even say that Miyo derives great pleasures from schadenfreude in general. Her teasing can at times also cause her to seem condescending or patronizing. A good example of this is when she and Tomitake are warned by Rika that they will die tonight and therefore shouldn't stay somewhere alone, but Miyo just giggles before shrugging it off and asking Rika if she's jealous of her and Tomitake going somewhere alone. There's also a slightly silly side to her that rarely pops up, like how she becomes completely estatic about the possibility of taking a look into the Ritual Tools temple and even copies Rika's cute trademark verbal tic 'nipah'. (It's honestly easier to just series → takano
Timeline: Minagoroshi-hen; after dumping Tomitake's body.
Abilities: While Takano is fairly intelligent and very cunning, able to manipulate people and plan things out down to the details, she's still an ordinary human without any special powers. She does have quite some knowledge in the medics field though and is a qualified nurse.

Sample writing:
Even though it was already night, the wind that blew through her hair still wasn't particularly cold. It was summer, after all, the night of Wataganashi. Perhaps the only thing that was really cold in this scene was the her gaze as she looked down at the body of a man on the ground. It almost felt a little strange to see him lying there unconscious on the grass next to a road in the middle of nowhere; the man who she had loved.
... That's right. It had been real love, after all. And he had loved her too. But.. when it had come down to it, he had loved his own morals a little more than he had loved her. A soft, but hollow chuckle came out of her mouth as her gaze almost resembled something melachonic. "Such a shame, wasn't it.." Her voice was soft. Even if she was sure that there weren't any people around here - of course not, she had planned everything down to the very details, even this - she refused to let herself make any sort of mistake here. Everything had to be perfect in this final plan to reach her goals. She would make sure to finally gain what she had wanted all along with an absolute unwavering will. And killing her lover in the process was only a small sacrifice.
The woman crouched down for a moment to be more on the body's level. Even if the male was unconscious and couldn't hear her, she still continued talking to herself. "Listening to your awkward talks about love was a little fun.. I would even have liked to hear more."
Ah, that idiot, that fool, why couldn't he have chosen for her rather than some last pathetic morals and ideals that weren't worth stopping in working towards reaching her noble goals? Things like ethics weren't needed here.
She touched his cheek one last time before she stood up again, her expression almost a little euphoric now. "Don't worry.. Soon, when you'll wake up, you'll reach the terminal stage and die. That way your abnormal death will be seen as the curse for the fifth year. And at that time, I too will 'disappear' and Oyashiro-sama's curse will have been carried out once again." Another giggle escaped her throat, almost a little unstable by now. "In exchange for throwing away your mortal body, you'll become part of an eternal existance. Don't that sound good..?"
Wasn't it the same as her 'grandfather' had told her a long, long time ago? When he had told her the story about Jesus and how he was 'resurrected' after throwing away his body as an eternal existance in people's hearts and minds everywhere. In this way, Tomitake Jirou would become part of the eternal existance known as 'Oyashiro-sama' and the god's curse as well. Ah, in that case, he should just be thankful to her, right?
"And.. at that time, I'll ascend to godhood.. As the one carrying out the curse, Oyashiro-sama is now me! Seems like we'll still be together after all, right, Jirou-san..?"
With one last flip of her hair the woman turned and walked away to get back in her car to drive away from the scene. "Goodbye."
Sample journal entry:
[ As the feed starts a woman's voice can be heard and there's definitely an annoyed, snippy tone in her voice. ]
Hey.. I'd like to get an explanation for this situation this instant. Something like this was never part of the plan. If any of you thought this was a funny prank, please announce yourself and we'll see if you will feel like playing a prank like that on me ever again, okay..?
[ Her voice takes on a somewhat more teasing tone and she giggles, but there's something sinister and treatening in it. ]
Don't worry, I promise to be extra gentle. So there's no reason to hold back any longer, hm? After all, we can't allow pranks like these to delay our work any longer. It would be such a shame if everything so far would be wasted.. I wonder how I would vent my frustration in that case. They do say women can be awfully creative, right?
[ A pause. ]
Well, I'll stop talking now to give you a chance to speak up and admit your guilt. Don't keep me waiting too long though, I'm a very busy person after all.. Surely you understand. [ A giggle and the feed ends. ]
