Shinobu Miyake

Meet Shinobu: Ataru’s childhood buddy and former girlfriend, before Lum burst onto the scene. She’s the picture of sweetness—small, tidy, and radiating classic charm. Just when you think she’s your average girl-next-door, she discovers some serious superhuman strength! Like many in her class, she’s head over heels for the suave Mendou. You'll often find her in the mix with Ataru, Lum, and Shuutaro, creating their own quirky dynamic. By the series' end, she feels like she might end up as a lonely "old maid" until a young guy named Inaba strolls in and sweeps her off her feet.
