Mizuki as a young child

As a child, Mizuki had a yearning for the stars in the universe and had a brief interaction with Kazuya Narimiya, a descendant of the Alien Satun. Before parting their separate ways, Narimiya gave her a children's picture book, "Constellation Thief." So she has treasured this book since she was a child.

With a desire to venture into distant territories and continuously pursue her dream, Mizuki chose to join UDF after she became an adult. She received training and became a pilot, and later became a member of DASH. The Taken Max Spark

While fighting a monster, Grangon, Mizuki spotted Kaito near it and told them to hold their fire until he left. After seemingly destroying it, Mizuki met Kaito and told him he shouldn't have been near Grangon, but Kaito told her he was protecting a boy and all that he wanted to do was to protect people and be better than DASH, and left.

Although discontent with Kaito's behavior, Mizuki unexpectedly crashed during a battle after being attacked by Grangon and was saved by Kaito in a moment of emergency. After being rescued by other members, they witnessed Ultraman Max's arrival on Earth and the defeat of Lagoras and Grangon.

Soon after this event, Mizuki was surprised by Kaito joining DASH, but in private, she congratulated Kaito on joining the team.Ultraman Max Arrives!

As interaction with Kaito increased, Mizuki often went out on dates with Kaito

After Kaito joined DASH, Mizuki became interested in him. Under the arrangement of Captain Hijikata, the two often participated in ground operations as partners to investigate potential monsters, aliens, or mysterious areas. As the series progresses, whenever Mizuki encounters trouble, Kaito puts himself in danger to save her. In her heart, Mizuki gradually confirms that Kaito is indeed Max's true identity. Although she maintains a friendly relationship with Kaito, she trusts Max more in later missions and serves as his support.

During an investigation into the disappearance of Keplus, Mizuki was led to an observatory where she was greeted by Narimiya. Narimiya told Mizuki that she was the only one who could see the observatory, leading him to conclude that Mizuki was a descendant of Alien Satun. Despite Mizuki's insistence that she was human, this realization left her confused and lost.

Conversation between Mizuki and Narimiya

When Mizuki meets Narimiya again, Narimiya tells Mizuki she can leave the Earth with her and opens a door in the sky, telling Mizuki that they should depart. However, influenced by her past with the team and Kaito, Mizuki states that no matter who she is, she still considers herself human.

Mizuki tried to convince Narimiya that the light of the Earth is a valuable light that shines alongside the starlight. Even Max believed in and chose to protect the Earth. Narimiya realized that even in the future, descendants of Alien Satun may still follow Keplus back to their side. He told Mizuki they would see each other again one day, and they said goodbye.

With the data calculated by Elly, Mizuki learned that her estimated injury rate in the past year and the probability of death in the next few years is 48%. This sudden realization filled her with fear and anxiety. In addition to worrying about her future, she was more concerned about the fate of the Earth and humanity, ultimately, the road to destruction.

When she and Kaito boarded the DASH Bird 3 to investigate the underground civilization Delos, they unexpectedly arrived in the underground world. Due to the unexpected crash of the DASH Bird 3 in the crisis, she was once critically injured and close to death. Prelude to Ground Annihilation

Fortunately, Mizuki miraculously regained consciousness through Kaito's persistent rescue efforts. She then witnessed Kaito transforming into Max and was successfully sent to the surface.

In the showdown, even though she was weak and in the hospital, she prayed for the success of DASH's mission. After the mission, she was reunited with the returning Kaito and said goodbye to Max, who was leaving Earth.
