edit

Myviy

edit
  • First appearance at the Tokyo Girls Collection in February 2021.[1]
  • A girl from Deneb and raised in Sendai. LTAANA and VEGATTA are friends.
  • By combining "MY" from My Navi and "V" from Victory, the club named it "Myviy" as an easy-to-call name that will be familiar to many people, including supporters.
  • Not a specific animal. A character inspired by the star Deneb, one of the summer triangles. The motif is Mynavi Wave, a moon helmet that is associated with the stars and the city of Sendai.
