Mia Taylor

Mia Taylor is a main character in Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. She is a third year student at Nijigasaki High School. She recently transferred from New York and is fluent in both English and Japanese. She is a member of R3BIRTH, a unit under Nijigaku. Her image color is platinum silver.

In All Stars, she was a member of the Association.

Background
She was brought to Nijigasaki (more specifically "dragged") by her friend Lanzhu Zhong. She was first introduced in Chapter 19 of Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS. Despite coming from a family of esteemed musicians, Mia would much rather prefer the life of a homebody and eat nothing but burgers. Mia is considered a 'music prodigy' by Lanzhu; she was an American college student before immediately transferring into Nijigasaki as a third year due to her skills, despite only being 14 years old.

In Chapter 29 of the main story, Mia officially joins the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club as its 12th member and 11th school idol alongside Lanzhu.

Appearance
Mia has a slim figure with boycut-styled platinum silver hair and has grey eyes. She also has a visible silver rectangular earring on her left ear.

Personality
Mia is a very straightforward and competitive girl, to the point of declaring war on the player as a songwriter out of the blue. However, her confidence is a façade and she actually tends to feel insecure about her songs' quality compared to the player's. At some point, she tried to determine why she felt this way despite being convinced that her own songs were better than the player's and went to discuss the other girl's songwriting skills with Rina, who suggested she get closer to the player in order to better understand her.

Songs
The songs featuring Mia are:
