Miu Shinoda (篠田美雨 Shinoda Miu) is a placid and soft-spoken actress who shares a boarding house with Blast and Yuri. She is older than she looks, at age 27, and her name is often mispronounced "Myū" by Nobu. Miu wears long sleeves to hide the scars on her wrists from self-mutilation. In volume 11 (the volume where she first appears), it is shown that she is a very good mahjong player (she claimed that she learnt her skills by having special training for her role in a mahjong movie as a nameless rival).
