Arakawa, Miki

The twins were born into a hard working middle class 'family' that resided in the Harajuku district of Japan, in fact, the twins were born and raised in a "maid" cafe here called Momo's Wonderland. Although they were raised in a single parent household the twins were rather happy and dedicated to their parental unit which they called Mom-Chan. From an early start the twins were thought of to be quite agile as they would often dance along to music that their Mom-Chan played while cleaning or were seen mimicing the ballet dancers on the tv whenever their grandparents came by to visit. However, their skills weren't honed until they were the age of 6 when they began to become a bit of a handful for their 'Mom-Chan'. Stressed with having to take care of two twin boys, Mom-Chan heard from a friend of theirs abouta beginners ballet class that would essentially get rid of the boys long enough for Mom chan to deal with their own personal matters. Besides, Mom-Chan rather liked the idea of them honing their talents into a skill they could possibly use in the future rather than leave them at the daycare center; thus the twins were enrolled.

The twins proved to have a real liking for ballet and the instructor had actually seen promise in the young boys. Although it was also around this time that the twin's rivalship started to grow as the two both wanted the instructor's praise and to show the other one that they were actually better than them despite the fact that they had the same face. Dancing for Miki was an enjoyable experience. He never really had many ways to express himself, always being mistaken for his twin. He, unlike Kozue, took dancing in a not so serious way. After awhile Miki began to use dancing as an anchor to reality. It was a release, everything that he had tried in the past hadn't worked too well. The hobby became more than just a hobby. It shaped his whole personality. Miki had always thought that dancing was a free expression, so he, himself became more of a care free person. This lead into the more dependent twin dabbling in other styles of dancing whilst still keeping up with his ballet training.

As the years went the twin's personality really started to differ from one another; Miki seemed to be quite a happy child while Kozu started to to get more serious and more socially detached from other students. At first this actually concerned their mother but after a few years of living with it she just accepted it as fact and allowed them to do whatever they wish. Aside form ballet the twins actually took interest in other dance styles that they decided to learn on their own outside of their school. In their early highschool years, Miki had learned about Yuga Academy and focused on reaching his goal of joining while Kozue actually spent their school years causing issues with other students and teasing his brother. It wasn't until they were 18 when Kozue discovered what Miki was interested in (Yuga Academy) and decided that if his brother could get accepted into such a school then he would want to try as well – after all, he believes he is the best out of the two.
