She is seen wearing Count's Sensha-do uniform during matches and wears the normal school uniform outside of matches. She also wears glasses when not practicing Sensha-Dō otherwise she wears contact lenses.
Personality[]
Mizuki is shown to be a friendly and supportive girl as she tries to lift up Noemi's spirit and help her with her anxiety regarding her becoming a tank commander and assuring her that she is has " hidden talents " and teasing her a little in the process. She is also very studious as she is among the top 20 of Count students as she hopes to work in the medical field and that she might be close to her commander being among the rare ones calling her Marina-chan outside club activities.
When Noemi tells Mizuki that she reminds her of the previous T.3 commander (and noemi's senpai) Mizkui tells her that she doesn't want to appear like her as she wishes to become special on her own and stand out as the commander of T-38.
Mizuki is also a capable commander on her own right, Effectively leading the Călușari pushing Saunders back and forcing them to cluster togather while taking out one of their tanks in the process. All while keeping her cool and listening to music (and humming it).
Background[]
Mizuki is the daughter of a doctor from Niigata that moved to Fukushima Prefecture, she has the desire to follow in her father's footsteps in medical world. Mizuki enlisted in Count High School's General Department where she then joined Sensha-dō team, in her second year she was assigned to the a T.3 tank as gunner paired with the first year loader Noemi Kohiyama which whom she developed several bond. She at some point she played a match against Anzio Girls High School. During her third year she became the commander of the a T-38 and was present at Noemi's promotion to tank commander cheering her.
During the practice match against Saunders University High School, her tank (callsign Tank N°7) was used as a scout. After observing Saunders tanks, she manages to regroup with the rest of the team after shooting a Sherman but it ricochet, after the Maresal was destroyed she retreats with what remaining of the main group the T.4 (Tank N°1), the TA (Tank N°4) and Noemi's T.3 (Tank N°3). She was among the retreating tanks when Noemi stays behind trying to delay Saunders Tanks.
After Marina orders the team to employ the Călușari tactic against Saunders Mizuki is seen as the one leading the formation taking out one of Saunders Shermans in the process and forcing Saunders to cluster together, However despite gaining the advantage over Saunders the tanks in her formation all being LT-35s and LT-38s were incapable of penetrating the armor of the Shermans as even when Mizuki managed to score a hit at Kay's own tank at point blank range the round couldn't penetrate the frontal armor of the Sherman and being unable to retreat as that would allow Saunders to take them out Mizuki orders her formation to be more aggressive, And then Mizuki enters a duel of sorts with Kay during which both take shots at each other with Mizuki barely managing to avoid Kay's shot (scraping off parts of her tank) and Mizuki managing to land non penetrating hits on Kay, Seeing the ineffectiveness of her rounds on the Sherman's armor she orders her crew (with visible ferocity on her face) to get behind the Sherman to aim at it's weakest point however Kay drives the Sheman backwards ramming the much lighter T-38 inflicting visible damage on it. Mizuki tries to aim for the rear of the Sherman's turret however Kay rotates her turret and the round hit's the side instead and as Mizuki is maneuvering away from the Sherman the Stug of her team fires a round near Kay's tank drawing her attention and probably signaling Marina entering the fray. After disappearing she goes for one more charge at Kay's tank and shoot a round that doesn't penetrate and she is then shot at by Naomi taking her out of the match.
Trivia[]
- Her size measurements are B80 W60 H85.
- Her weight is 50 kg.
- Mizuki bears a strong resemblance to a character in the film series "Star Blazers: Space Battleship Yamato 2202 called" "Mikage kiryu" this resemblance is not coincidental as Michio Murakawa also worked on the illustration of the series before working on Girls Und Panzer.
- Furthermore both characters are from Niigata Prefecture which implies that Mizuki's character might be a reference to the series.
