As a transgender (specifically non-binary) person, I always resonated with the experience of Mizuki shown in-game, even if we don't share the exact same one. I could relate with struggling with my self-expression, and being judged and ridiculed by others for my gender identity. Despite the issues she faced being trans, she kept on loving what she loved doing and didn't let people stop her from wanting to create, something I really admire about her. I love her cheerful personality, yet she's also careful and somewhat turbulent. She's a good balance of positive and negative and IMO makes her the best written character in Project SEKAI. Even after falling out of my PJSK fixation, I continued to love Mizuki and admire her as a character. She also has a really cute design that I find is really memorable, and always has adorable outfits, I find myself all giddy whenever I see pictures of her because she's just so cute in each one. Despite adoring her character for years, it took me a while to begin to love her romantically. After Mizu5, I found that I think she deserves someone who will accept her no matter what and treat her with upmost respect, and I wanted to be that person.

I love Mizuki's cuteness, affinity for all things adorable, fashion sense, and true-to-life inner conflicts that I find to be very realistic. I first found out about her from my lovely girlfriend Ani, who was a casual Project SEKAI fan at the time. Mizuki was her favorite (until I made her my whole personality lol) and he'd often show me videos of her and talk about her as a character. I was interested by their mentions of her as a character and her design, but I never looked into her much more than that. That was until I began getting a BUNCH of PJSK posts on my Twitter timeline and TikTok For You page. As I learned more about this character, the more I realized I was really fond of her, eventually inspiring me to play the game myself. It was the perfect opportunity, as Mizuki's second focus event was active, which meant I had a chance to get her limited Reverse Hermit card, of which is still my favorite PJSK card of all time. Did a few 10 pulls, and guess who my first ever 4* card was? Reverse Hermit Mizuki! Ironically, on JPSekai, her White Day card was also my first 4*. I like to think that maybe she knew I was attached to her!
