Mia Taylor

Mia Taylor is a upcoming main character in Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. She is a third year student of Nijigasaki High School. She recently transferred from New York and is bilingual in English and Japanese.

In Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS, she is a member of R3BIRTH, a unit under the reformed Nijigaku and was a co-founder of the Association. Her image color is platinum silver.

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 has attended an American college and transferred immediately into 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. When she joined Nijigasaki High School Idol Club she felt insecure about her songs quality compared to Yu's. Then she asked herself why she felt like that and thought that her songs were better in quality. After consulting with Rina about how Yu is so skilled in writing songs, she suggests she get closer to her. Afterwards, Mia decides to confront Yu, even declaring war on her, only to get a confusing answer from Yu who didn't understand Mia's intentions.

Songs
The songs featuring Mia are:

Solo

 * I'm Still...
 * Toy Doll

Group

 * L! L! L! (Love the Life We Live)
 * Miracle STAY TUNE!

General

 * Mia fulfills the pure attribute of the Nijigaku third years, sharing both an attribute and year with Emma Verde. In All Stars, she wears the pure attribute costume. Ironically, both Emma and Mia are foreigners.
 * She is the first foreigner in the franchise not to be born in a country in the Eurasian continent.
 * Canonically to the franchise, she is the youngest school idol as of 2021.
 * Her songs are greatly reminiscent to the English pop-songs in the 2000s.
 * In the international release version of the game, Mia's profanity ("shit") has been inconsistently translated as "Dammit" despite being spoken out loud from the original dialogue.
 * The 26th chapter of the story shows that Mia isn't actually skilled on cooking (such as not knowing how to make hot chocolate and using a washing machine to wash vegetables) due to her lifestyle.
 * Prior to the confirmation of her potential appearance in the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club Anime's second season, a leaked listing of the 6th Capsule Rubber Mascot line indirectly supported this hypothesis, as Mia was drawn wearing the Anime-styled bowtie.
