Introduction
Marika is an easygoing girl with a comforting atmosphere. Besides being a university student, she also works as a popular model. She was the center of attention upon entering university, but she became friends with Rika, who was able to talk to her despite all the attention. Sometimes her connections as a model comes in handy for Merm4id activities. She loves concerts and is dedicated to her DJ activities.
Appearance
She has waist-length brown hair that is usually tied up into a side ponytail. She has purple eyes and fair skin, and is often described as cute by the other characters.
Background
Marika's father is an interior designer and her mother owns a talent agency. Marika used to be closer with her peers when she was younger, but it all changed in high school when she started working as a model, after getting signed with her mother's agency. Due to her busy schedule, Marika would often arrive to class late or have to leave partway through. As a result, her classmates started perceiving her differently and ostracizing her, thinking that she has no time for them and how the teachers treat her specially due to her fame. She started being alone and says that she became used to that feeling, before Rika was the first one to approach her.
Personality
Marika is friendly and carefree girl with a relaxed exterior. Despite her popularity and professional career, she has a down-to-earth personality and seeks to do more things outside of modeling, such as her dream of being an actress. She can also be playful, joining in with Rika's shenanigans and teasing her unit members Saori and Dalia to expose their flustered side. In spite of the positive facade she tries to uphold, she has her insecurities of feeling unable to live up to others' standards and admires the confident aspects of her friends, which she feels she lacks.
