Misaki
- Misaki is a GT Sister from the Transformers GT portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Misaki (ミサキ) is GT-R Prime's GT Sister. The calm and professional "class president" type, she analyzes Prime's performance during races, devises strategies based on her data, and provides him with efficient and orthodox advice without wasting any words. Though she comes off as a rather dull and formal person, she gets very passionate while cheering Prime on.
Fiction
[edit]Story of Transformers GT
[edit]Misaki was overseeing GT-R Prime's test run the day before the Transformers GT. She warned him not to take GT-R Saber's presence on the track so seriously since it was just practice, but Prime rejected her advice, responding it was just in his nature to give it his all to defeat any challenger.

Transformers GT: Mission GT-R
[edit]As their respective GT partners raced before them, entered into an argument with Anna and Hiiro over who's partner was the fastest. Their bickering was interrupted by the arrival of Noa, and her partner Megatron.

Transformers GT: Mission GT-R story pages
[edit]Alongside the other GT Sisters and their GT Transformer partners, Misaki participated in promotional events such as photo shoots in order to promote coexistence between humans and Transformers. The Work of the GT Sister Race Queens? When a reincarnated Unicron attacked the Transformers GT finals and absorbed the energon saved up for the final prize, Misaki entered battle mode and used the "Matrix In" ability possessed by all GT Sisters to merge with GT-R Prime and restore his true strength. Joining forces with the other racers and GT Sisters, the two fought and defeated Unicron, and Misaki received a hug from Anna as they celebrated their victory. The True TFGT

- Packaged with GT-R Prime, Misaki is a highly-poseable figurine redecoed and retooled from the 2005 Microman "Micro Sister" mold by Microman designer DOGMASK into a human (well, human-passing) [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}race queen|{{#if:||race queen}}]].<ref>Article on Transformers GT in Transformers Generations 2013, p. 34</ref> She wears the real-life uniform of the race queens repping the [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Super GT|{{#if:||Super GT}}]] team Team Nismo, whose livery adorns Prime. The set also includes a few extra pairs of hands for Misaki to facilitate various expressions.
Notes
[edit]- Misaki's outfit, or "scanning motif" as it's called in her profile, is the outfit worn by real life race queen Misaki Takahashi (高橋美咲 Takahashi Misaki), the Motul Circuit Lady, at the time Transformers GT was released. The Motul Circuit Lady is one of two race queens representing Team Nismo, whose car GT-R Prime transforms into, and wears the colors and logo of their main sponsor, Motul.
- Since GT Sisters are personifications of their partners' Matrices, Misaki's position as Optimus Prime's partner would suggest she represents the Matrix of Leadership itself, though this isn't outright stated as the Matrix stuff is only briefly touched on in the GT Sister story description.
