Mike Goutokuji (豪徳寺 ミケ Goutokuji Mike) is the Stage 1 midboss and boss in Unconnected Marketeers.

General Information

Abilities

She has the ability to invite money or people, however due to the fact that she was unable to train as a maneki-neko, her ability developed imperfectly and she can invite one of the two, but the other one will be driven away.

Background Information

Name

Her surname, Goutokuji (豪徳寺), is taken directly from the real-world Goutoku-ji temple, which is said to be the birthplace of the maneki-neko.

Her given name, Mike (ミケ), is taken from mike-neko (三毛猫) (lit. "three-haired cat"), the Japanese word for 'calico cat'.

  種族:招き猫
  能力:お金かお客を招き入れる程度の能力

  豪徳寺にすむ招き猫は、本来は白猫である。
  しかし三毛猫として生まれた彼女は、その外見の所為で苦労したようである。
  時にはまがい物と疎まれたり、時には毛を染められそうになったりもした。
  しかし、彼女は三毛で何が悪いと開き直っていた為、仲間外れにされ、
  招き猫の修業も出来なかった。

  その所為か、招き猫の能のが不完全な物になった。
  お金とお客を招くのが招き猫なのだが、お金かお客のどちらかを招き入れると
  もう一方を遠ざけてしまう物になってしまった。

  こうなってはもうお店に置いても価値は無い。当然、引き取り手も無いだろう。
  彼女はむしろ幸いだと思い、清々しい気分で招き猫社会を離れた。
  そして、山で悠々自適な新生活を送ることになった。

Stage 1 Boss

Lucky Charm of Prosperous Business

Mike Goutokuji

Species: Maneki-neko
Ability: Capable of beckoning in money or customers

The maneki-neko of Goutoku-ji temple are ordinarily white cats.
She, however, was born a calico cat, and it seems that she struggled quite a bit due to her appearance.
At times, she was shunned as a poor imitation, and at other times, those around her tried to dye her fur.
But because she spat back at them that there was nothing wrong with being calico, she was ultimately cast out from the group, and was unable to partake in her maneki-neko training.

Perhaps because of this, her ability as a maneki-neko developed imperfectly.
Maneki-neko are meant to beckon money and customers, but in her case, beckoning one of the two will end up driving away the other.

By that point, she was worthless to place in a shop. And of course, none were likely to claim her.
She thought of this as a stroke of good luck, if anything, and abandoned maneki-neko society feeling wholly refreshed.
And thus, she set out to live a new life in the mountains, comfortable and free of worry.
