Miyako Arima (有間 都古, Arima Miyako^?) is a cousin of Shiki Tohno, as well as his other step sister. The Arimas are relatives to the Tohno family, but have very weak demon blood compared to them. She received a slight mention in both Tsukihime and Kagetsu Tohya, then made her first real appearance in the Melty Blood fighting game series. When Shiki was adopted into the Arima family, Miyako became close to him, despite being several years younger than Shiki. She is annoyed at the lack of contact she has had since the events of Tsukihime, and attempts to 'rescue' him from the Tohno family in Melty Blood.

Although her martial arts are not that skilled, she gains amazing strength through Wallachia's influence in Melty Blood. She uses a form of Chinese kenpo, and her theme song(s?) reaffirms her connection to Chinese culture, both in name and in style. Her clothing in Melty Blood also resemble traditional Chinese dress.

Appearance and PersonalityEdit

Keeping with her "China Girl" theme, Miyako seems to wear a traditional Chinese outfit. However, one of her victory poses in Melty Blood shows that she wears a T-shirt and shorts inside.

Although she tries to look strong, Miyako is actually quite shy, especially around Shiki. One of the routes in Melty Blood story mode shows that Miyako has a hard time saying anything to Shiki. Because of her frowning reticence, Shiki mistakenly assumes that Miyako is always angry at him for some reason.
