An energetic girl who happens to be Hinako's classmate and childhood friend. However, she is often sick and therefore, absent from school. After "the incident", Miko was the only one to treat Hinako normally. She dislikes Shiori, but is not necessarily enemies with her.

~!She appears to be human, but she is in fact a fox spirit with an appetite for human flesh. She calls in sick to fight her instinct to eat other humans. After failing to protect the rest of Hinako's family, she tasked herself with protecting Hinako from other monsters.!~

“I’ve come to eat you.” So softly utters the mermaid Shiori as she emerges from the sea and takes high school girl Hinako by the hand.

To ensure that she matures to the best condition, Shiori seeks to protect Hinako—all so that someday, she can devour every piece of her. What will become of Hinako’s feelings as this looming unjust death closes in on her…?

Fairouz was born to a Japanese mother and an Egyptian father. She was named after the Lebanese singer, Fairuz. She spent a few years of her elementary education in Cairo before returning to Japan. During her junior high school years, she became familiar with the manga series [JoJo's Bizarre Adventure](https://anilist.co/manga/31517/). Due to her growing interest in the series, she would join Skype reading sessions with other fans. Eventually, she was inspired to pursue a career in voice acting, but her parents initially disapproved of her plans. Instead, she would initially study at a graphic design vocational school before spending a year as a dental assistant. Once she was able to save enough money for tuition, she enrolled in a voice acting training school.

In 2019, she debuted as [Hibiki Sakura](https://anilist.co/character/132856/), the protagonist of the anime series [How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift?](https://anilist.co/anime/107226/)
