Background / History
Meiyu’s parents are from the mainland, and she moved to Japan while growing up. Difficulty adjusting to local customs and making friends contributed to her low self-confidence. On her first day at Advanced Nurturing, she met fellow Mandarin speaker Aragaki Shun on the bus. They were assigned to different classes, but she continued to hope they would meet again 18 116 201.
In Class D, she joined Kushida Kikyo’s circle and became friends with Inogashira Kokoro. During the Uninhabited Island exam, Aragaki asked her to redeem 200 of Class D’s temporary points for supplies benefiting Class A, promising to help her transfer afterward.

Meiyu spent the exam with Class A and began a relationship with Aragaki, encouraged by Shiranami Chihiro. After the exam, Aragaki helped her move out of Class D’s accommodation. She later formally joined Class A, where classmates welcomed her for her contribution on the island 115 116 121 164.
