小学校に通うおしゃまな女の子。近所のお兄さんに片思い中…。
早く大人になりたい!ってお月様にお願いしたら戦うお姉さんに変身する力を貰っちゃった★これでお兄さんを守ってあげるっハート♥
A precocious girl attending elementary school. She has a crush on an older boy in the neighborhood... "I want to be an adult already!", she pleads toward the moon, which gave her the power to turn into an older girl that fights!★ With this, she is now ready to protect him with all her heart♥


Megumi is an elementary school student who has a crush on a boy in her neighborhood, a junior high school student from the same school she goes to, whom she refers to as "onii-san" due to him being older than her. He is the son of a famous scientist, Dr. Takayama.

She develops a love triangle with a girl named Hitomi, another junior high school student from the same school. The boy seems to be attracted to Hitomi instead of her, thereby making her very jealous.

Knowing that she is just an elementary school student while both the boy and Hitomi are junior high school students, she desires to become an older girl than she really is.

Meanwhile, as the boy's father is a famous scientist, he along with his father has been the target of an evil organization called "Sexy Cat", which aims to steal his father's inventions for their own mischievous plans.

On one fateful evening, she pleaded to the moon to turn her into an adult. The moon fairy responded by giving her magical powers to transform into a magical, older form of herself called "Magical Megu" by chanting a long magic spell while using the power of her Beauty Tambourine, which is usually hidden inside her hairpin.

As Magical Megu, she fights the minions of Sexy Cat using various moves like "Jealousy Thunder" in order to save the people they were attacking, including the boy. In this form, the boy (who doesn't know that she's actually Megumi) seems to show admiration for her and she was also able to talk with him. Unfortunately, she is not allowed by the moon fairy to reveal her identity to anybody, or she will be punished by being transformed into a frog (the only other people who knows the secret is the moon fairy herself, and her best friend, Yumi). Despite this, Megumi still hopes that the boy would give his attention to her as her normal self.

Appearance[]

Megumi appears as a young girl with plain black eyes and medium length brown hair, decorated with a pink flower pin. Her attire consists of a plain magenta dress with long sleeves and a white collar. Her shoes match her dress color, and she has white socks with a yellow stripe. she wields a pink heart-shaped tambourine. In her Magical Megu persona, she appears much older and her hair becomes blue and reaches her knees. She dons a white vest with a pink tie showing her stomach and cleavage and matching white gloves and boots. She also has pink stockings with a black bikini, and her hairpin gains a white wing design.

Her 2P palette simply gives her blonde hair and an orange dress with matching shoes. As Magical Megu her hair is now green and her stockings are magenta, while the rest remains the same color.

In Pop'n Music 3, Megumi has two other color choices as well. Her 3P gives her a red dress and shoes with an orange flower pin, and her hair is slightly reddish. Her 4P makes her dress and shoes blue, while her hair is lime green and her hairpin remains pink.

  • Megumi's full name and family members are revealed in a Popper's Lounge interview.
  • An early concept for Megumi can be found in the beta designs section of the Pop'n Peace page. Her name was Yuka and she was said to be a witch girl.
  • Megumi's ability to transform by "asking for the power of the moon" and her transformation chant are likely a reference to Sailor Moon.
