Mimi Inuzuka

is an Academy student and a member of the Inuzuka clan of Konohagakure.

Personality
Mimi is a somewhat reserved girl, not acting hastily. She is considerate of her class-mates, unwilling to deprive them of food as part of an exercise, being ok with having just a candy bar instead of a proper meal. As with all members of the Inuzuka clan, Mimi has a deep bond with her ninken, Kikuchiyo.

Appearance
Mimi is a fair-skinned young girl with the signature Inuzuka red markings on her cheeks. She has dark eyes and bushy orange hair that covers her ears and frames the sides of her faces with strands on the top that stick up and resemble dog ears. She dresses in a white, button-down shirt with blue tie, and black skirt held up by suspenders.

Kawaki & Himawari Academy Arc
Mimi attended the academy with some students of noteworthy lineage, including the daughter of a famous acting duo, the daughter of the Hokage, and a foreign princess. During class, she was asked by other students to do tricks with her dogs, which she declined. She was also present when the reporters interviewed Kae Yukiwari, and afterwards at class practice, where she admired Himawari Uzumaki and Eiki Fūma's shurikenjutsu skills.

When Team 7 taught her class, they put the students through an exercise to simulate fighting on an empty stomach. When she had a candy bar, being ok with others having her meal, Ehō Norimaki took it from her, saying that her choice was against the purpose of the exercise. Mimi's dog bit him. Soul disagreed with it, instead finding that lack of rules about eating something else was a hidden meaning they were supposed to find. Most of the class divided themselves along those lines, and boycotted class the next day. Their teacher Hana was able to mend the rift, and the following day, everyone took part in a picnic and cherry blossom viewing party.

Later, she was placed on a practice team with Konashi Nerikiri and Kande Inabikari as part of a series of competitions to improve team-work skills. When Himawari looked for Kae when she left the group, Mimi pointed Himawari in the direction she saw Kae leave.

When her class had to put on a play about the Sannin, Mimi was part of the group that helped Neon build the stage. When Eiki's struggle with Kawaki damaged the set, she joined in the repair effort.

The day of the festival, Mimi and Kura were in charge of a target booth with prizes for hitting targets with kunai. When shinobi quickly began winning all their prizes, they wondered if they should have barred shinobi from participating. When the festival received a terrorist threat, Mimi stayed inside.

Later, following Hana being hospitalised from the terrorist attack, Mimi joined her class in welcoming back their teacher. To make up for the festival being cancelled, Hana arranged for the class to undergo survival training on an uninhabited island. However, Kikuchiyo was injured and their food supplies vanished, stoking fear about a rumour of killer missing-nin settling on the island. Mimi tended to her ninken, and later informed Kawaki that the trap that injured her ninken was baited with his food, making Kikuchiyo the intended target. Everyone formed groups to scavenge food, and later to look for Neon's damaged drone. By night, everyone enjoyed their food.

Soon after, they learned from Kawaki and Himawari that Kae was killed by Hana, who was actually a hired assassin. As everyone was horrified to learn the truth about their kind and beloved teacher, Himawari noted that Hana's actions as an assassin seemed too excessive, including how she took Kae after seemingly killing her. Realising that Kae is likely still alive, the class worked together to find and save her. Through knowledge of the island from an old article they realised Kae was most likely somewhere on the west coast of the island. Following a trail of crumbs left by Kai, they found her hidden in a cave. Before they could move forward, Kawaki told them to stay behind as they were just students against an elite assassin. Kawaki also revealed himself to really be a full-fledge shinobi, with the mission to protect Kae. Accepting the seriousness of the situation, the students stayed behind. Afterwards however, Eiki noted they could still be helpful in another way.
