Like Sakiko Togawa, Mutsumi Wakaba comes from a well-off family. Born to famous parents, she had been the center of attention from a young age, and was childhood friends with Sakiko. Though Mutsumi often struggles to communicate her feelings, it is crystal clear how important Sakiko is to her, and how she quietly supports Sakiko.

Promotion record

[Iris's Notes] Mutsumi has spent her entire life under the gaze of others—from her parents, from the entertainment industry, and from society at large, all wanting 'Mutsumi Wakaba' to become who they want her to be. Under such pressure, a terrified and helpless Mutsumi played the role of a good daughter and a future star like her mother, with acting that surpassed even her mother in skill. Mutsumi played countless 'roles' in order to protect herself. She grew more numb every time she took the stage or exited it as one of these roles, and stopped thinking about anything other than being the Mutsumi Wakaba that people wanted to see. May Mutsumi's experiences in Terra stay with her when she wakes from the dream, giving her courage— The courage to accept herself, the courage to accept 'Mutsumi Wakaba'.

Mutsumi's struggles with communication have continued on Rhodes Island. She tends to help out with Sakiko's work where she can, seldom interacting with others on her own. She can sometimes be found tending to fruits and vegetables on her own in the Convalescent Garden. She shows little sign of emotion when other operators talk to her, the conversation ending after a couple of short exchanges. That said, it wasn't long before people noticed that Mutsumi does not only work on her own plot; she also helps care for plants in other areas. To return the favor, the other operators help her out in kind without saying a word, working together to keep the garden beautiful. In a later development, operators began to find paper bags at their dormitory doors, filled with produce planted by Mutsumi—in her own way, an utmost expression of her gratitude.

Sakiko has asked us not to put too much pressure on Mutsumi. Mutsumi's mother is a famous actress and her father a famous comedian, leading the entertainment industry and the public to place great expectations on her, something that has troubled her all her life. Outside of her remarkable family circumstances, however, she is simply a kind-hearted girl who struggles with communication. Sakiko tells us that she knows she cannot shelter Mutsumi all the time, but at least she wants to give Mutsumi a place where she can feel safe and comfortable.

Mutsumi does not talk much, but her kind heart is there for everyone to see. She always works hard to complete her missions, and other operators are impressed about how much she listens to others, as can be seen from her mission reports. As a matter of fact, Mutsumi is quite sensitive to what others say, and it is precisely her desire to live up to other people's expectations that has created pressure for her. She keeps these struggles to herself, only pushing herself harder. This personality trait has led to her suffering many times over. Sakiko, Mutsumi's childhood friend, is the only one who understands her pain. Hopefully, the support of other Rhodes Island operators will make life a little easier for Mutsumi here.
