This thread is dedicated to Mio Akiyama from the K-On! series.
Mio Akiyama is the mature but scaredy-cat
bassist, and second vocalist of the bandHo-kago Tea Time.
She is the bass player of the Light Music Club. Even though she acts mature, calm and collected most of the time, she freaks out from things she's afraid of, are gross, or pertain to gore. She is a tsundere towards Ritsu, often due to Ritsu's immaturity. Because of her extreme shyness, she chose the bass over the more conspicuous guitar. She is so delicate that merely imagining herself being the center of attention almost makes her faint, but she still plays the bass quite well. She is kind and warm with others, caring about her friends and knowing they are important to her.
Although she is not altogether uninterested in joining a band outside school, the time she spends with the Light Music Club members is the time she enjoys the most, so she has completely devoted herself to the club, and during the school festival performance in the fall of her first high school year, she acted as lead vocalist instead of Yui, who had lost her voice at that time. It seemed like Mio might have overcome her stage fright, but after the performance ended, she tripped over a cord and fell, exposing her panties, and was traumatized anew.

I just want to point that in the scene the author based on for that drawing, the character is Jun, not Mio. For some reason most people get that one wrong.
>>2851117
Do you have a single fact to back that up?
>>2851117
Really? So, was it Jun Suzuki all along or is it still considered an alternate Mio of sorts?
I see the same 50 or so pictures get posted every thread and lots of really low-res pictures. Pull out your rarest and best Mios, boys.

It's better than poorly drawn deviantart trash to be honest, but then again those get posted here pretty regularly too.

here's a Mio who looks kind of like Motoko
So Mio Fan club, what is your view on Mistu? I know some of you don't like it, but what appeals to you about the ship as someone who loves Mio?

Yuri is a foul trend that has become increasingly pervasive as the years go by, to the extent where yuri subtext is an industry standard for any show without a male protagonist.
>>2852240
Mio and Ritsu's friendship is one of my favorite parts of the show, so I think the shipping pics can be cute, but in general I would rather have more platonic pics of them

They are too pure for a yuri relationship.
>>2852240
I'll admit that I'm not a fan of the ship because I love her in a romantic way, but I suppose seeing her with Ritsu is better than a fat old salaryman.

Thanks for the honest responses, Anons. I think it's safe to say we have good representation across the spectrum. And while I'm in it for the romance/love story of it(nothing lewd), and I think yuri love can be considered pure, I think I could live with them just being really close friends.
