Minori

Minori's design

Minori has short lilac hair that she wears down with choppy bangs and blue-green onyx eyes.

She can be seen wearing the girl's sailor uniform of Salt Middle School. For most of her appearances, however, she wore a pair of white pajamas.

Personality[]

Minori is a very spoiled and fierce girl. The first we see of her, she throws a tantrum due to dissatisfaction over lavish birthday presents. According to her father, this is her true personality that existed before Mogami possessed her. She acts very similarly within the world Mogami created and trapped Mob in. She bullies, isolates, and abuses Mob. She does this because she wants to prove herself superior, and by preying on those who are weaker and can't stand up for themselves, she establishes her position. However, after being saved by Mob, she is brought to tears and resolves to become a better person because of him.

History[]

Before appearing in the story, she was possessed by Mogami to punish her for hurting other people and using her popularity to ruin their lives. He also used her father's wealthy status so several psychics would come to attempt and exorcise him from Minori's body and use that opportunity to punish them for their greed and egos.

Plot[]

Keiji Mogami Arc[]

Due to Minori's habitual harm to the weak and her status as the daughter of a wealthy businessman, Keiji targeted her for possession. She was confined to a basement room in her father's mansion after her possession. Her father and doctors believed it was a psychological issue at first. However, after Mogami used her body to kill a doctor brought to examine her, it became apparent that she was truly possessed. Her father had her handcuffed and restrained to her bed in an isolated cell.

Minori's father then sent out a call for psychics and experts to come to exorcise the spirit from her body. Mob and Reigen were among the many who arrived. The father presented a video of her before her possession and promised a large reward for anyone who was able to exorcise his daughter. Using rock-paper-scissors to decide who would attempt an exorcism first, Reigen won first place while Mob came in near last.

When Reigen interrogated her, the spirit claimed that her father was cruelly confining her there and that the doctors he brought to treat her were actually men who touched her against her will. The rest of the psychics were shocked and turned on Minori's father. However, Reigen revealed the fallacies in the spirit's ploy, such as Mogami using different pronouns to refer to herself and how she addressed her father. Exposed, the spirit admitted its attempt to trick them and allowed the psychics to attempt an exorcism, assured in its strength.

Breaking free of the restraints, Mogami quickly dispatched the psychics with no difficulty and sealed them within the room, stating that this would be their demise. In a face-off against Mob, he resorted to breaking Minori's body to escape a telekinetic body bind. With no other option, Mob resolved to use astral projection to enter Minori's body and remove him by force.

Within the imaginary world, Minori transferred to Mob's class and tormented him for six months until he began to break down at Mogami's initiative. With Dimple's help, Mob erased all the evil spirits that partly comprised Mogami within her. Defeated, Mogami left her body, and she awoke, finally free. After a seemingly brief and casual apology and thank you to Mob, she broke down emotionally in guilt. However, Mob's forgiveness and belief in change gave Minori new resolve to become better.

She was later seen with her recovering father in the hospital, claiming that she was rescued by a boy her own age. This eventually led to her father's enormous donation to the Psycho Helmet Cult.

???% Arc[]
