Miho Nosaka

Miho Nosaka

Miho Nosaka (野坂 ミホ Nosaka Miho) is a fictional character in the anime and manga series Yu-Gi-Oh!. In the English version of the Yu-Gi-Oh! Dungeon Dice Monsters video game, she is called Melody.

Miho is a meek, shy, and quiet girl, nicknamed "ribbon" or "ribbon-chan" for the yellow ribbon she wears in her hair. In the manga, Miho, the student librarian, is a minor character that Hiroto Honda (Tristan Taylor) gets a crush on. Honda buys a jigsaw puzzle from Sugoroku Mutou (Solomon Moto), the grandfather of Yugi Mutou (Yugi Moto). Honda decides to give the puzzle to Miho as a gift. Later, a beautiful teacher named Ms. Chono (known as Miss Madusa in the English Dungeon Dice Monsters video game) decides to do a desk check. When she finds the puzzle, she asks who it is from. Yugi, Jonouchi, and Honda all say they made the puzzle, so Chono decides to solve it after announcing she will expel the person who made the puzzle.

Dark Yugi (Yami Yugi) comes out and places a penalty game on Chono; the more she hurts Honda and Miho, the more her beautiful façade cracks. When she solves it, her face cracks open, revealing an ugly face. An embarassed Chono runs out of the classroom. Miho dumps Honda after he directly asks her out. Yugi and Jonouchi buy him a hamburger to cheer him up, and Honda becomes friends with Yugi.

In the first series anime, Yu-Gi-Oh! A Shadow Game, Miho is made into a main character along with Yugi, Honda, Katsuya Jonouchi (Joey Wheeler), and Anzu Mazaki (Téa Gardner). In the 27-episodes long anime, Honda has a crush on Miho throughout the whole series, but Miho falls for Ryo Bakura. In the first series anime, Miho is not involved in the Chono and the love puzzle plot. Instead, a girl named Mayumi had a crush on Jounouchi and wanted to send him a love letter in the form of a puzzle.
