She wears the standard Hyakkaou Private Academy uniform with black thigh-high stockings, and brown loafers. Additionally to the housepet badge, she also has a collar with a chain attached around her neck, and is mostly kept on a leash by Sachiko; she wears it most of the time, except for important events when she acts as a member of the staff (though it is hinted that she wears it under her clothes).
Personality[]
Mikura has shown great loyalty, dedication, and subservience to Sachiko Juraku by doing everything for her. Sachiko treats her brutally, but some of this treatment appears to amuse Mikura. In addition, she thinks little of insignificant gamblers and learns a lot about gambling from her master, as she enjoys watching them lose.
Furthermore, Mikura is extremely possessive and jealous, not liking the idea of Mary Saotome replacing her as Sachiko's pet. She also possesses a masochistic streak, not even minding dying for her owner.
In the past, Mikura was known for being a ruthless sadist due to how little she cared about people losing to her, and making them lose all their money in the process. But that changed the day she gambled against Sachiko and lost. As a result, she had to endure countless humiliations, including wearing a collar and serving her all day. She challenged Sachiko again after a week, determined to get rid of the collar. Yet, she continues to lose, repeating the same process over and over again. As her spirit broke, she began to find pleasure in Sachiko's dominance, saying she had never taken pleasure in bullying other people.
