Chisato Mera (目良 千里, めら ちさと lit. Mera Chisato) is a classmate of Kusuo's. She works part time in Cafe Mami as a waitress.

Appearance[]

CharaChisato

Chisato sports maroon hair tied into two low bunches with colorful beads. She has maroon eyes and wears a pair of round spectacles with a piece of lens missing. Her PE Uniform and swimsuit had other people's name on it as she could not afford to buy new ones. She is described to have a starved appearance.

Personality[]

Chisato is a poverty-stricken, clumsy, very selfish, tactless, self-serving, greedy, albeit a determined, remorseful, diligent, mild-mannered, good-hearted girl that frequently breaks dishes, and may eat her customer's food. When Kusuo became Kuriko for a brief time, and has a meal with her, Chisato eats everything. She complains about having to stop eating, Kuriko remarks it is a horrible thing to say.[1]. She asks for food from her classmates by giving them an acorn. When she constantly complains about their gifts and steals from them, they are taken away from her and she breaks down in tears and admits to her mistakes.[2] When shipwrecked, she eats everyone's food and gives them safe plants to eat, and kills a snake that was threatening their lives. She then apologizes about the food and works really hard to make up for it.[3]

She works hard for her family, taking on multiple jobs to support them, and possibly skipping meals so her siblings could eat. 20 days after New Year's Day, she states that a bowl of ramen she was having was her first meal of the year[4] and over a summer break she ate mostly grass.[5] Because of this she will eat anything if given the opportunity including abusing the free-sample policy, taking handfuls of food samples, [6] and the burnt remains of failed cooking class attempts.[7] Mera is shown to be an air-head on occasion, as the time when Saiko mailed to her a laxative bread, but she failed to realise that Saiko was the one who mailed it and she took it as a kind offer when it was meant to offend her.

Abilities[]

  • Super Eating; Mera has shown to adapt to eating grass, burned foods and ate a laxative bread without any side-effects.
  • Survival Intuition; Chisato can survive very well, as was displayed when the group of friends were stranded on the deserted island.

Background[]

Chisato's family used to be rich but due to a sudden debt crisis, their family sunk into debts and loan sharks took everything and now they are very poor. Because her mother is sick and she has a lot of younger siblings, she has to work more than one job. Not much was exposed about her family but it was said that she has a lot of siblings and is low in financial support. Three siblings can be seen in the anime right before the Okinawa trip, twin brothers and a younger sister, comforting her about not being able to go, before getting a ticket. After the debt crisis, loan sharks hunted her father, forcing him to go into exile in Puerto Rico and hiding from his family. He returned to Japan years later, and was planning to commit suicide and use his insurance to pay the debts. But he had to keep hidden from his family in his time in Japan. With the help of Aiura Mikoto and her powers, Chisato tracked down her father in Japan. Mera Kiyoi, her father, had to run away and hide from his daughter in order not to get the loan sharks angry and put his family in danger. Saiki Kusuo knew this and used his powers to force the loan sharks to apologise and declare that there was no more debt to be paid by Mera Kiyoi. Chisato Mera reunited with her father. later on, very briefly, in an episode, the Mera family became insanely rich off of Bitcoin before returning to their average poor lifestyle when Bitcoin's value dropped.

Etymology[]

  • Mera means "eye ogle" (目) (me) and "good, virtuous, respectable" (良) (ra).
  • Chisato means "thousand miles, long distance" (千里).

Trivia[]

  • Her main diet is beansprouts, bread crumbs, grass or snow depending on the season.
  • Chisato's name uses the same Kanji as the Japanese for clairvoyance (千里眼, Senrigan).[8]
