Tsuchimikado Maika



Tsuchimikado Maika (土御門 舞夏) is Tsuchimikado Motoharu's younger step-sister.

History
How she became Motoharu's step-sister is unknown but it is hinted that they both like each other for some time.

Personality
She can usually be seen riding on top of a cleaning bot, and will talk to you even when the bot is spinning. Interestingly, she never seems to get dizzy. She is also a good friend of Mikoto as she works at her dormitory. Even though she lives in her school's dormitory, she sometimes goes to live at her brother's apartment; for instance she once stays at said residence because her dormitory's air conditioner breaks down.

In one opportunity Mikoto surmised that Maika perhaps might be into boy~love stories; but Maika almost instantly refuted stating with a big smile in her face that her favorite ones were the books where the older brother falls inlove with the younger sister.

Despite the formal and polite nature of the vocation she has chosen to study, Maika is gleefully unprofessional and casual, openly referring to people by their family names without using the polite-suffix of "sama" the way a maid should. Point in fact, her boyish way of speaking without using any honorifics required by the catering profession would more than likely land her in hot water should she follow through to an actual career as a proper maid.

As the maid school isn't involved on the developing of abiities, Maika is one of those "rare people" that are in Academy city yet haven't been "altered" in any way in order to gain ESP powers.

Appearance
She has long black hair swept back by her bonnet that barely reaches her shoulders. She wears a maid attire because she's a student at Ryoran Maid School. She has a friendly relationship with Touma and Index. She is constantly seen on a cleaning bot.

Since the maid school has classes every day, she is never seen wearing anything but her reglamentary maid outfit, a fact that she has pointed out proudly.

Chronology
She makes her first appearance in the 3rd novel greeting Touma and Misaka Imouto. She becomes aware of Index and Aisa's presence in his apartment room.

Throughout the series she is well known for performing what is commonly called "almost girlfriend services" to Motoharu. Services that include and are not restricted to cooking for him, massaging him, cleaning his room and taking care of his health. All of those are performed on regular basis whenever she can muster enough free time.
