Name: Misaki Shiki
Series: The World Ends with You
Age: 15
Canon: All the world’s a stage. Except in the hip and trendy Shibuya, where it’s a game. The World Ends with You follows the story of Sakuraba Neku and his partners as they try to figure out what the Reaper’s Game while trying to stay alive for seven days so they can have another chance at life. BUT Neku has a serious chip on his shoulder and does not trust people one bit, preferring to drown out the world underneath his gigantic headphones. This only makes things more difficult for his partner as they combat the impossible-to-solo monsters called noise, avoid the malevolent Reapers, and maybe understand a bit more about themselves and each other in the process. Maybe.

Misaki Shiki is Neku’s first partner, and there couldn’t be a better one to try to break through his antisocial emo. Spunky, energetic and incredibly outgoing, she is always willing to lend an ear to others and listen to their problems. Unfortunately, her personality often comes across as sappy, inauthentic and naïve to Neku. But despite his observations, deep beneath her exterior is an incredibly astute and compassionate person who genuinely wants to help people become a little happier (though perhaps a little lacking in self-esteem). Her lifelong dream is to become a fashion designer, making clothes for people that’ll make them happy. Needle and thread always on hand, you better be sure that your clothes don’t have any loose stitches or you might wind up naked as she mends it up!

Ooh man, how did I wind up in this situation? I can barely remember about how I even got to here. Try to think about it, Shiki… um… the last thing I remember I was walking, completely minding my own business and suddenly, it happened-what had to have been the most unkempt clothes I had ever seen in my entire life! Talk about a fashion nightmares! I still shudder thinking about it: the stitching was loose and the sleeves were about ready to fall out. Then the fabric was practically in shreds and the hems were in tatters. I couldn’t help myself. I had to fix it! I could almost see the tears of sorrow seeping between the threads, saying “mend me!” Though the guy was kinda strange. What was with all the low groaning, huh? Maybe he was some kind of pervert, but whoever heard of a pervert with a thing for brains? Talk about a weirdo!

Then suddenly I get approached by this half-ton gorilla who wanted me for my services and here I am mending all these clothes for a fashion show! I suppose I should cut them some slack, but a lot of these clothes look a little small to be worn by a gorilla, and I’m still hoping that the “stolen from the campers” letters on the sides of the bags are a joke. But you know, I suppose things could be worse. I mean at least I am doing this to help somebody look good and that’ll make them happy in the long run. Who knew that there gorillas had the need to express themselves through clothing? I should really look into that, maybe there’s an untapped market there.

Huh...? Oh. Yes, I’m almost done with… oh no, your master of ceremonies is sick with laryngitis? That’s terrible. Huh-wha--!? You want me to do it? I’m not sure if I’m the one you want, I’m not really very good at talking to people on stage. Well… I guess if all I have to do is read the cards, that’d be OK. Are you sure that I’m the only-you’re sure. Alright. I’ll try my best.

Eh-hem… ladies and gentlekongs. Thank you… for attending the - um…-- first ever Wild Eye for the Gorilla Guy fashion showcase! I am Shiki Misaki, your master of ceremonies! The theme for this week is the same as it was last week, and… apparently, the theme for every week since this began three years ago-What The Campers Were Wearing! Let’s begin. Oh--! Here comes Dee Kay Kong sporting the incredibly rugged biker threads with matching too-tight black jeans! Born to be wild never had a closer meaning then this! Next up… well! Looks like George isn’t quite so curious in that gauche sailor’s outfit! No… we really don’t want to see any leg. That’s quite enough, thank you. And next… HOLY COW!!

… ohh ehm gee, there are some things that should just never wear a two-piece bikini…
