Misha Miramond

Misha is a human from the Energon portion of the Unicron Trilogy.

You can call me whatever you want, baby.

Misha Miramond is a brilliant young researcher specializing in possible applications of the potent resource known as energon. However, she is troubled by the fact that her research is used by her fellow human scientists and their Autobot allies to construct weapons.

She is in a relationship with Kicker Jones, son of Dr. Brian Jones, the foremost expert on energon. Her research often has her living a long way away from Kicker, which causes some strain on their relationship at times.

She is sometimes known as Mika. And then Misha again. And then Micha. And then Misha again the week after that. Her deceased parents are Pierre and Olie Miramond.

That Kicker is such a mean doody-head.

When the Alpha Quintesson and Scorponok unleashed their attacks upon the Energon mining facilities of Earth, Misha was stationed at the research center in Plains City. Although Optimus Prime ordered an evacuation of the human personnel at the different mining colonies for their own protection, Misha remained behind with a research crew at Desert City. Energon Stars This strongly concerned her friend Kicker, who wished she had evacuated with the others. Hot Shot was transferred to command the garrison stationed at Desert City in anticipation of an attack, and Misha confided in him about Kicker, and wished he wouldn't worry so about her. Later, she and another scientist were trapped when the Terrorcon forces stormed through the mines and defeated the Autobot defenders. Kicker and the Autobots from Ocean City staged a daring rescue where Kicker, Strongarm and Ironhide fought their way through the mines to rescue Misha and the scientist, while Optimus Prime kept the treacherous Tidal Wave busy.

Scientists make great office ladies!

Later, Misha was made a member of Optimus Prime's unit, and was given a skin-tight yellow spacesuit of her own (which left her hair flowing free down her back, even in the airless vacuum of space, which didn't seem to have any ill effect), similar to Kicker's. Within the unit she acted as the Miranda II's operations officer. Go for Unicron!

Mmm, yeah, that's right, hug me hard. If you like, you can come back to my room so we can hug some more.

Irritated at having been kept out of the loop about the upcoming Autobot Grand Prix, Misha and Arcee entered the race late (with Misha in disguise) and won it while Hot Shot and Ironhide were preoccupied with their manly manliness. Crash Course

Hawt.

Notes

• As referred to above, early in the Energon cartoon's run, Misha was frequently called Mika, with both names being used interchangeably (and sometimes both within the same episode), until the series eventually settled upon 'Misha'.

• When Misha is referred to as 'Mika', the voice actors also often switch between two different pronunciations of the name—'My-kuh' and 'Mee-ka'. For ease of reference, the second pronunciation is rendered separately as 'Meeka' in the episode synopses.

• In episode "Each One Fights...", it is revealed that Misha's parents have been dead since she was a child.

Foreign names

• Japanese: Misha (ミーシャ Mīsha)
