Mariko Akimoto

Mariko Akimoto (, Akimoto Mariko) is a minor character in Tokyo Mew Mew.

Mariko is a fair-skinned teenage girl with chin-length dark purple hair and angular dark blue eyes. Her bangs are pinned back by a light yellow hairband. She's typically seen wearing the Daikan Junior High School girls' uniform with thigh-high white socks.

Mariko is a kind girl who, despite her calm appearance, has a short temper. She's shown to be very mature, using her crystal ball to give Shunsuke advice on how to confess to his crush despite having a crush on him herself.

She typically spent her time telling the fortunes of female students, though Mariko later revealed that she never actually saw anything in her crystal ball and was instead just saying things that would encourage her clients.
