Megumi Yoshikawa (吉川 恵 Yoshikawa Megumi) is Mikoto Yutaka's partner. Megumi is also the main character of Tsuda's earlier series, The Day of Revolution, where Makoto and Mikoto are supporting characters.
Background
Megumi's appareance as a boy and girl.
Megumi in the manga.
Megumi's original name was Kei Yoshikawa, a rebellious boy in high school who would get into fights along with their three close friends. However, one day their doctor tells them and their parents that while Kei may appear to be physically male, they are in fact genetically female. They thus starts to live as a girl and even changes their name to Megumi, which uses the same kanji as 'Kei'.
After the change in lifestyle, Megumi still has a problem with the transition from male to female. Even as Megumi dresses as a girl, they still feel more like a boy, and feels more comfortable when around Makoto. As a guy, they were often told that they were cute, causing they to physically retaliate and retain much of the same personality after their transition. Megumi tends to be very outspoken and even blunt sometimes.
Appareance
Megumi has brown hair and eyes. As a boy, they used to had short hair instead of long.
Personality
Megumi has a caring heart and would do things asked of they by Mikoto so as not to upset him. Also, they are not entirely sure of Mikoto's feelings towards them and once they even suspected something was going on between Mikoto and the other two Princesses. Megumi and Mikoto seem to have a very good, understanding relationship between them. For instance, even when Megumi finds out Mikoto is a Princess, they say they doesn't care sice Mikoto is the same person they love either way.
They also has have a very prominent effect on Mikoto's personality, being able to elevate his spirits when he is feeling depressed. Similarly, when around Mikoto they are very happy and it's obvious that they enjoy each other's company. As noted by Mikoto in episode five of the anime, Megumi does not seem to like using makeup because they think it's cuter. Mikoto seems to have no complaints over this as he thinks they are cute regardless.
