Meiya/Plot

Story
Meiya first appears when invited to a cosplay event by Ruby Hoshino for an interview. She exchanges pleasantries and chats with Minami Kotobuki and Mimi Yoshizumi. During these discussions, she briefly explains her grievances regarding the treatment shown to her -- Specifically, the last-minute costume change confirmation that Tokyo Blade cosplay was prohibited, which she prepped for.

Meiya's interview began shortly after; questioned various topics about herself -- some teetering the lines of sexual harassment. It was an unpleasant experience for her. Seeking to express her distaste, she voiced her concerns on social media. Her post gained immediate traffic and trended. Shun Yoshizumi tries to reason with her -- the goal being to have her Twitter post taken down. His effort is for naught, as Meiya defends her reasoning and hangs up on him. The cosplay episode for the production company was postponed from the resulting controversy.

Ruby sought to rectify the situation. Through her intervention, she brought both sides together on an episode of "Dig Deep! One Chance." Meiya heard the opposing side and the restrictions imposed upon them -- Tokyo Blade's copyright being under strict scrutiny. After Samejima Abiko, the mangaka behind Tokyo Blade explained why her intellectual property is so strict with permissions, Meiya was questioned about what happened during her interview -- Her disdain towards the lack of respect shown that day. With her newfound knowledge that the production company had limitations, she reached a compromise. She wouldn't mind deleting the tweet if they promised this situation wouldn't happen again.

Meiya became further satisfied when the director who caused all this, Tetsu Urushibara, was humiliated live on television by apologizing to her in a rushed cosplay. She saw the sincerity in his words and could relate to the roughness of his costume -- The two relating to the emotions they'd feel if one was in their shoes.
