Miaka Yuki
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Miaka Yūki (夕城 美朱 Yūki Miaka) is the main character in the manga and anime series Fushigi Yūgi. She is an ordinary high school girl with a tremendous appetite and is generous and cares greatly for others. She became the priestess of Suzaku, or the Suzaku-no-Miko. She admittedly is not the brightest crayon in the box, despite studying extensively for her high school entrance exams and going to juku (cram school) for hours on end. Her goal is to pass the entrance exam for Junon High School to please her mother and be with her best friend Yui (an admitted genius), though she really wants to attend Yotsubadai High School with her friends.
Miaka is also an avid fan of anime and imitates several characters during the course of the story. In episode 5 she impersonates Sailor Moon's "I will punish you, in the name of the moon" introduction (this is also a nod to the fact that actress Kae Araki was the voice of Sailor Chibi-Moon) and in later episodes mimicks Astroboy and even Doraemon.
