Profile

But now, she's starting to wonder if she might've been just a regular girl all along. After all, she's got all the usual concerns of a girl her age—deciding where to go for college, adjusting to having her long-lost crush back in her life after helping to bring an entire nation to its knees to save him, finding her lost dog so she can Cross Fuse...

She's like any other girl. She's like no other girl.

History

First Impressions

The only daughter of Ai Sakurai and Cody Linkler, Meiru was born and raised in a quiet Japanese suburb, far from her parents' Ameroupe-based talent agency. But while both adults agreed keeping such a young and impressionable girl away from the cutthroat world of stardom was what was best for her, neither was quite ready to leave it behind yet. Once Meiru had turned eight, Ai commissioned a companion Navi, Roll.EXE^FS, to keep the girl out of trouble, entrusted Meiru with an allowance sizeable enough for her to run the house in her mother's stead... and promptly returned to the talent agency in Heaven's City with her husband.

To their credit—and with the guiding critique of Meiru's maternal grandmother, Nadeshiko Sakurai—Meiru and Roll barely missed a step; interweaving household chores, piano lessons, playtime, school time, and studying all the most girlish trends with ease. But didn't every girl her age...?

Trying Not to Get Left Behind
