Miyake Aoi



Miyake Aoi (三宅葵依) is a character in the D4DJ franchise, and is a member of the group RONDO.

Appearance
Aoi is a fairly tall woman with short, dark-grey hair and light, golden eyes.

Description
Aoi is a DJ that performs exclusively for a members-only club, "Alter-Ego", which has a long history. Her androgynous looks attract many fans. She became captivated by Tsubaki's vocals and asked her to form a DJ unit. Usually she wears a poker face and doesn't show her true emotions, but she opens up her heart to her unit members.

Although Aoi may seem like a womanizer and often draws female attention to herself due to her androgynous appearance and princely personality, she does not take advantage of those she meets and often appears oblivious to their affections.

Etymology
Miyake (三宅) can be split into two parts. Mi (三), meaning three, and Yake (宅) meaning house.

Aoi (葵依) can also be split into two parts. Ao (葵) meaning hollyhock, and I (依) meaning dependence.

Aoyagi Tsubaki
Aoi personally invited Tsubaki to form RONDO and she notes that Aoi was a big factor in her decision to join the group. The two subsequently became very close, with the two of them often being "in their own world", according to Nagisa. Aoi repeatedly recognizes her as one of the most important people in her life. However, she is still oblivious of the purported romantic nature of Tsubaki's feelings for her. Their relationship is separately studied in the Valentine's Day Rondo's event, where Aoi and Tsubaki also are the only ones who mention each other in character's limited in-game Valentine's dialogues. It also mentioned that Tsubaki is generally the first person to whom Aoi decided to give chocolate.

Yano Hiiro
Fellow unit member. Even before RONDO's formation, Aoi and Hiiro were in a DJ unit together which performed at Alter-Ego.

Tsukimiyama Nagisa
Fellow unit member. Before RONDO's formation, Nagisa had admired Aoi and Hiiro's DJ unit and was delighted when she managed to join them after passing an audition and impressing them with her guitar skills.
