Murakami, Tomoe

村上巴

Tomoe is a slightly rebellious girl whose interests and hobbies seem more suited to someone born in 1950s Japan. She dresses like a Yakuza member. In her New Year's S Rare outfit, she is accompanied by an entourage of suited bodyguards. She is a shogi player and maintains a distinctly old-fashioned style, including her music taste and idol costumes. Enka was Japan's most popular music genre in the 1950s, and Tomoe's idol costumes emulate the typical attire for this style.
In the Cinderella Girls Theater tie-in skits, Tomoe is an idol specializing in the enka genre. She has several servants wearing black suits who address her as "Mistress". She is a hard worker and somewhat of a homebody. Her father was strict with her, making her perform various chores while stating, "When a man is out working, it's a woman who protects the household." She used to be confused by this saying, as she believed women should be allowed to go out too, but she now realizes that the Producer fits the male role in her work. She believes herself to be tougher and stronger than she actually is.
Tomoe seems to enjoy punishing men. In fact, one of her life philosophies is that if a man is good for nothing, he deserves "harsh discipline and a bare butt spanking" from his superior wife. She also dislikes frilly clothing and becomes upset when she learns Atsumi Munakata is ogling her, or when the Producer wants to dress her in skimpy animal costumes. She meets Mizuki Kawashima on the beach and is stunned by the idol-like aura Mizuki gives off. She also sings enka at a New Year's concert while wearing traditional garb.
