미야후지 요시카(宮藤 芳佳)는 제501통합전투항공단 소속 후소 출신 위치이다. 때때로 "꼬맹이(ちびっ子)", "마메후지(豆藤)"로도 불린다.

배경

"스트라이커 유닛의 아버지"로 알려진 미야후지 이치로 박사의 외동딸이다. 어머니 사야카와 할머니 아키모토 요시코는 20대를 넘어도 높은 마력을 유지하고 있는 극히 드문 경우이다. 요시코는 군 복무 당시 수백 명을 치료했으며, 중환자도 순식간에 치료할 수 있을 정도의 실력자다. 야마카와 미치코는 한줌의 마력도 가지지 못했지만 어린 시절부터 같은 반 친구로 지냈다.

산골마을에서 자란 요시카는 세상물정을 모르고 자랐는데, 이 때문에 할머니가 운영하는 의료원을 물려받는 것을 꿈꾼다. 사람이 다치는 것을 싫어하고, 다른 사람을 지켜주고 싶다는 강한 의지를 가지고 있는 것이 그 꿈에 많은 영향을 미쳤다. 또한 시골 출신인 요시카는 도시에가서 적응할 능력이 없었으며, 위치에 대한 지식 또한 부족해서 다른 사람들이 위치에 가지는 동경의식을 이해하지 못했다. 이는 많은 후소의 소녀들이 위치를 동경하게한 선전영화 "후소해의 섬광"을 보지 못했다는 것에서도 드러난다.

제501통합전투항공단에 입대하기 전, 요시카는 요코스카 제4여자전용중학교 2학년으로 재학중이었으며, 성적은 평균이었다. 갈리아 해방으로 제501통합전투항공단이 해체된 후 학업을 재개하여 중학교를 졸업한다.

보급품을 수령하기 위해 일시적으로 후소에 돌아온 사카모토 전투대장에게 직접 입대를 권유받았다. 처음에는 사카모토의 군인신분에 불만을 표시하며 입대할 생각도 보이지 않았지만, 아버지가 죽었다는 소식을 전하는 편지를 받고 그녀는 요코스카 해군기지로 자진해서 찾아간다. 조금씩 조금씩 그녀의 아버지의 발자취를 따라가던 요시카는 항공모함 아카기에 타고 유럽으로 떠났으며, 그곳에서 사카모토에게서 전혀 들어보지 못한 아버지에 대한 이야기를 듣는다.

마법에 대한 지식도 옅고 비행에 대한 훈련도 없었지만 요시카는 네우로이에게 습격받는 실제상황에서 처녀비행을 성공한다.

항공모함 아카기에서 처음 탑승한 순간부터 각종 잡일을 도맡아 했으며, 제501통합전투항공단에 배속된 후에도 시간이 있으면 아카기를 위해 도움을 아끼지 않은 것으로 보인다. 아카기에서의 그녀의 다정한 행실과 아카기를 보호한 그녀의 전과는 후소 해군병들에게 큰 인기를 끌었고, 한 번은 러브레터까지도 받았다.

생각보다 행동이 빠른 요시카는 특히 남을 돕기 위해 행동으로 인한 결과를 생각하지 않고 실행하는 경우가 많다. 남을 돕고자하는 욕망이 강하고, 주변 사람들에게 도움이 되기 위해 최선을 다하지만, 주로 다른 생각이나 인상으로 인해 남의 감정을 읽지 못하는 경우가 많다. 네우로이와 대화가 가능할 것 같다는 생각으로 인간형 네우로이와 접촉을 시도했고, 이로 인해 사카모토 소좌가 총에 맞아 중상을 입었다. 그런 상황에서도 분명히 대화가 가능할 것이라며 숙소를 탈출해 다시 한 번 네우로이와 교신을 시도하기도 한다. 이로 인해 말로니 항공원수가 제501통합전투항공단을 해체시킬 준비를 하게된다. 그녀는 종종 명령이나 스스로의 안전은 생각하지 않고 행동하지만, 직감은 보통 옳다. 요시카의 탈영은 결국 501의 예산 책정 변화와 워록 프로젝트의 파괴로 이어졌기 때문이다.

항공모함 아카기와 융합한 네우로이의 둥지핵을 파괴했는데, 이것은 스트라이커 부대를 독자적으로 운영한 영리함 덕분이었다.

제501통합전투항공단이 해체된 후, 집으로 돌아온 그녀는 예비군의 일종으로 대우받는 것으로 보인다. 하지만 요시카 스스로는 몰랐지만, 요시카는 네우로이와 접촉함으로써 발생한 일련의 군법위반에 전투전과를 감안해 불명예 제대로 처리된 것이었다. 은퇴 후에도 그녀는 요코스카 해군기지에 수제 페스트리 같은 것들을 계속 가져다줬고, 그 덕분에 기지 내의 정비사들에게 인기가 있었다.

은퇴한 지 반 년이라는 공백에도 불구하고 스트라이커 유닛을 조종해 요코스카 기지에서 발진한 대형 2형 수송기를 따라잡았다.

At one point, the currently existing Type 0 Striker Unit became incapable of bearing her magic power, which caused it to automatically engage its limiter and go in disorder. Later, she almost perfectly mastered the Shinden - a prototype of a new model of Striker Unit whose test-flight was not even done - in its maiden flight. Then, out of anger from her friend (Warrant Officer Bishop) being hurt, she freely used a multi-shield not shown even in training to invade the interior of a super-large Neuroi, easily destroying it single handedly.

In the decisive battle against the Neuroi's nest that appeared in Romagna, Squadron Leader Sakamoto ended up being absorbed by a giant Neuroi's core. In order to save her, Yoshika used Sakamoto's Reppumaru to invoke a Reppuzan that had her entire magic power poured into it. As a consequence, Yoshika lost all her magic power, but she herself said that such loss didn't matter if it was for the sake of saving someone important to her.

After returning to Japan in 1945, she decided to study in a prestigious medical school in Helvetia and traveled to Europe again.. Hattori Shizuka, a Fuso rookie, was assigned to protect and guide her. After the Akagi boarded in Gallia, they visited Flying Officer Clostermann, Flight Sergeant Bishop and Sergeant Planchard at Perrine's castle. During the trip, they were attacked by a large-type underground Neuroi. Yoshika attempted to combat the Neuroi on her own, despite no longer having any apparent magic, but ultimately was knocked out. By some miracle, Yoshika would soon regain her magic power once again; described as being the result of the voices of her companions from the 501st reaching out to her, heard through her transceiver. After being supplied a Striker Unit from Sakamoto, she fought the Neuroi alongside the rest of the 501st that hurried to Gallia to save her. Afterward, Minna announced that the 501st JFW would be reformed once again.

At the start of Road to Berlin, plans had now been put in place for the 501st JFW to reform and return to action. Meanwhile, Yoshika decided to resume her studying in Helvetia - as originally intended - while waiting for the official reforming process to finish. Throughout most of the events of the 3rd season, Yoshika would continue to have difficulties with using magic. But after witnessing the "death" of Shizuka during the final battle for Berlin, her feelings of helplessness and intense emotional agony caused her power to increase more than ever before, which then allowed Yoshika to fully heal her friend's mortal wounds. She then drew the attention of most of the Neuroi, allowing the combined efforts of the 501st to lure out the core and destroy the Neuroi's control over Berlin once and for all.

Personality

Her personality is pure, straightforward, earnest and always energetic, but also surprisingly stubborn. With a strong sense of duty and thoughtful of her friends, she works vigorously towards her aims without giving up and always facing forward, possessing a brashness of spirit strong in crucial moments. Due to her nature of not being timid or fearful of strangers, Yoshika has friendly relations with everyone in the 501st Joint Fighter Wing, without exceptions, in spite of being the last member to join in. Particularly, she displays an excellent combination with her close friend Lynette Bishop and with Perrine H. Clostermann, who she had many opportunities to work together with.

She has a physiological revulsion towards wars and guns that injure people, and losing the father that she loved only encouraged her hatred against war. However, that dislike is based not on knowledge but on emotions and, in the bottom of her heart, she thinks that fighting for the sake of the promise she made with her father ("Using that power for the sake of protecting many") is unavoidable.

After her enlistment in the 501st JFW, Yoshika developed a flat-chested complex. She does not actively make a move, but does brings her face and hands near towards the breasts of others with quite natural movements or sends an intense gaze to their chest areas. Whenever doing joint training or collapsing after a mission with Flight Sergeant Bishop, she always brings her face or hands near the other's breasts. In occasions like during the aquatic training, bathing and Flight Lieutenant Barkhorn started up the Jet Striker, she naturally gazed intently at someone's chest area. A smile of pure bliss surfaced when she got a hold of Flight Lieutenant Yeager's breasts, burying her face on them when she collapsed after a collision. Also, her eyes unconsciously sparkled when Flight Lieutenant Yeager and Flight Lieutenant Marseille disputed over the size of their breasts. Due to not watching where she was going, she ended up grabbing Squadron Leader Sakamoto's breasts in a straightforward manner. Later, upon meeting Sakamoto in the bath, she ended up suffering from dizziness caused by a prolonged hot bath after thinking too much about the same breasts. Yoshika has been known to sleep beside Flight Sergeant Bishop from time to time, and often places her hand (or head) on her breasts whilst sleeping.

Maybe because she has no immunity to celebrities as someone comparatively more inexperienced than others, Yoshika has a tendency to desire autographs in a lowbrow-manner. During a re-supply stop at Los Angeles, she took a picture and got an autograph from Elizabeth Taylor, a well-known child actress at the time who would later become a great actress, without really knowing who she was - for no better reason than the fact that people formed a crowd. She also desired an autograph from Flight Lieutenant Marseille upon learning that she was a world-famous Witch, despite not knowing anything about her until she visited their base.

A small glutton, Yoshika is well versed in housework - especially cooking. Though only capable of preparing Fuso cuisine, she has a fixation with nattou to the point of making it herself. She actually dislikes Britannian cuisine.

Abilities

Yoshika's inherent magic is Healing Abilitiy (治癒能力, Chiyu Nōryoku). Classified as a variety of the telekinesis-lineage, it puts a living thing back to how it was by means of magic and is effective not only against external wounds but also diseases. At first, she became fatigued upon treating a single person, so consecutive use was difficult. However, she underwent a huge growth through practice and actual combat, to the point of being capable of fighting without problems even after continuously applying treatment to over 10 people.

One of her remarkable abilities is the strength and size of her shield, and it can be used for both attack and defense. Another ability of note is a multi-shield that raises the power of the magic shield, the generation of a gigantic shield and the capacity to use them properly for offense and defense. Her latent magic power and growth width are by far the greatest.

By granting her own magic power, Yoshika can increase the magic power of a targeted Witch, drastically increasing both her inherent magic and physical abilities. [2]

Yoshika had once invoked a Reppuzan, a type of telekinesis magic attack consisting in releasing a magic blow by pouring magic into a sword.

She seems to have a good sense of combat, such as firing at enemies in irregular maneuvers or mimicking Sakamoto's special technique, the left twist (左捻り込み), just by having seen it. She also used the rolling scissors (roll senpu) against the Warlock without training.

She also has confidence in her health and boasts never having catch a cold before.

Equipment

Yoshika's Miyabishi Type 0 (V-139) striker, used in 1944, was destroyed in the last battle of Season 1. So when she returned to the military, she used Sakamoto's old type 0 (V-128) unit that had been replaced by a Shiden.

Her Tsukushi Shinden is a prototype that was completed based on the engine design drawings left by Dr. Miyafuji, which can withstand Yoshika's enormous magical power.

Yoshika's Type 99 cannon has been remodelled from its original 20mm×101RB specifications - first into a 13.2mm×99 and later into a 12.7mm×99, the latter which is an easy-to-acquire ammunition used by the European Dispatch Corps. Some works also display her using a Schnellfeur M712 as a sidearm, which is commonly known as "Mauser Military" or "Broomhandle". She was also issued a Walther PPK upon joining the 501st, however she immediately returned it, stating a dislike for firearms.

Yoshika's Comments On Other Characters

파일:Chara05 1.gif On Minna

"Wing Commander Minna? Yes, she's a fantastic person! She's always smiling... and she feels like a very mature woman. I wish I could be more like her. She somewhat reminds me of a mother."

파일:7e76a6de6c77f06f0411243096a766fc.gif On Lynne

Other members of the unit? Lynne was the first friend I made after coming here to Britannia. She showed me around in the base and was very kind! That made me happy... And... that big bosom.... wah! Nothing! It's nothing!"

파일:E14538eb81bf8236ee742a8aa76241ac.gif On Sakamoto

"Sakamoto-san? She's kind, but can be pretty strict sometimes. She told me about the work my father had done, and I'm very grateful for that. Although it surprised me when we met for the first time and she told me that “I would come to her sooner or later”!"

파일:Chara07 1.gif On Perrine

"Perrine? Yes, it feels like she's always mad at me. I wonder why...? I know I make a lot of mistakes all the time, but I still don't think she has to be that hard on me... Sakamoto-san told me being strict on someone is a way to show you have hopes for them, but I wonder..."

파일:35e6a0bfafdefcbb99c934cfba34f23e.gif On Lucchini

"Lucchini always eats the things I cook with a smile on her face. Things like that makes me happy! But it feels like she's always sleeping in some odd place... is that really okay?"

파일:C1be48c1f27bce67edbf28f2a92a719c.gif On Shirley

"Shirley is a really kind person! She seems kind of slack, but I think she actually really looks after everyone. She's bighearted and broad-minded... What? I'm not talking about her breasts! But... well... they sure did feel nice..."

파일:Chara06 1.gif On Barkhorn

"It feels like Barkhorn is always mad at me too. But well, compared to her, I'm still just an inexperienced little duckling, so I guess it's only natural."

파일:Chara04 1.gif On Erica

"I don't really understand Hartmann. Everyone says she's an excellent witch, and she is amazing even in small-scaled battles, but in her everyday life she is... how should I put it... umm... sloppy?"

파일:Chara11 1.gif On Sanya

"Sanya is a really kind girl! She's a little shy and quiet, but she's good at singing, and I think it's really great how she always does her best for all of us during the nights!"

파일:Chara10 1.gif On Eila

"Eila is quite mysterious. But at least I've come to understand that she cares a lot about Sanya. Seems like she almost never has used her protective shield during battles since she can predict the enemy's attacks. According to herself, she does it without thinking, “by intuition”, but... Isn't it amazing?"

Strike Witches "What If" — 1947

파일:1947 Yoshika With Striker and Ether Projection Cannon.jpg

Seen here is Yoshika in jet strikers powered by 4 engines, equipped with an Ether Projection Cannon.

"Super Miyafuji-san. Her magic is too much for just two engines, so here she has 4. I had a dream where she was the strongest witch who was able to use weapons that turned her magic directly into beams of light..."[3]

This shouldn't be considered entirely canonical, because it was only tweeted by Humikane. In addition, two alternate versions of 1947 Yoshika, tweeted by Humikane, can be found within the gallery below as well.
