Neko

is a mysterious girl with the ability to transform from a cat to a human.

Personality
Neko has a very joyful, carefree and energetic personality.

She is very playful, often participating or even starting chases with people. In addition, Neko seems to have no qualms or worries about being nude, especially in front of men, showing some immodesty. She even stated that she does not like wearing clothes, the reason being that "Clothes are too restricting".

Appearance
In her human form, Neko has long, bright pink hair reaching along her back down past her knees. While in this form, Neko displays a case of Heterochromia iridum as her right iris is colored blue while her left iris is colored green. Neko also wears a bell around her right ankle. She commonly wears revealing clothes.

In her cat form, she wears a bell around her neck, and her fur is the same color as her hair while in human form.

History
Neko was present at Ashinaka High School on December 7 when Mishina confessed to Kukuri Yukizome.

Plot
Neko passes by Kukuri and two male students, naked, while they're walking around campus. None seem to notice her, however. Neko doesn't care and playfully jumps around the nearby stairs to the rooftop.

At some point, she transforms into a cat, and meets Yashiro Isana. She finds him on the rooftop and eats some of his lunch. Neko proceeds to spend the rest of the day with him, following him to class, even to the city. Her attachment to Yashiro remains even after a pursuit made by several Homura members, Kuroh's following rescue of him, and his return to his school's dormitories.

Tired from his day's chaotic events, Yashiro lies on his bed, talking about the video. Neko, lying on his bed and now in her human form, sleepily says that things have been so good and peaceful until recently. Her presence, coupled with her nudity, overwhelms Yashiro. Neko does not react to his shock and, upon being asked, introduces herself.

Neko is then asked to put on Yashiro's jacket but she refuses, saying it's too restricting. He attempts to put it on her anyway, but Neko counters with her illusive abilities, assuming that now they'll be in a game of tag. Yashiro is unable to respond, as he is then attacked by Kuroh Yatogami; seeing him in danger, Neko stops Kuroh and grabs Yashiro's arm, running away from the room with him.

However, after Yashiro throws his jacket on her, Neko starts turning things into a chase, with her being followed by Yashiro who's being chased by Kuroh. Throughout the event, Neko constantly uses her abilities to distract the two teenagers, thus extending the little "game". The chase ensues throughout the evening, night, and even the next morning. By dawn, Neko and the others have become exhausted and hungry, so Yashiro decides to make breakfast. She persists that he doesn't include certain ingredients in the soup he's making. However, Kuroh ends up making the food instead, and Neko joins the two in an amicable breakfast.

Throughout breakfast, Neko constantly forgets her table manners and just stuffs herself on Kuroh's food. However, she attempts to thank for her meal when she sees Kuroh and Yashiro do so, only she thanks for the "meow" instead. Afterward, Kuroh attempts to kill Yashiro again, causing Neko to jump from her seat and hiss angrily at him. He asks who she is and Neko reintroduces herself. She states she does not understand Kuroh when he asks if she is a Strain. Neko does state that she is Yashiro's cat and that Yashiro is hers, causing her to jump about happily.

Powers & Abilities
Transformation: Perhaps her most complex ability, Neko is shown to have a rare ability that allows her to change her form and voice at will. In her case, she can transform into either a human, teenage girl or a small kitten. In some cases, when Neko transforms abruptly, there is a small cloud of smoke that briefly obscures her during the changing process.

Illusion: Using the chimes made created by her bells, Neko is able to conjure various illusions. These illusions are time-based and will lose their effects after a certain amount of time.
 * Visual Illusion: Neko can create illusions that causes her victims to see an image different than the one they should be seeing. In most cases, she creates an illusion in relation to the environment she and her victim are in, which causes the latter to view a distorted version of the setting.


 * Physical Illusion: In addition, Neko can conjure physical illusions that take on a solid form. They can range between non-moving objects, such as a wall, or moving objects, such as an animal. In the case of an illusion that portrays a living creature, Neko can have it so that they can have unique traits, some beings voice and movement. These types of illusions are typically cat-themed.
