Character Introduction[]
Her father was originally the president of Massive Electric (ME) Corp. When Mei was 15 years old, the company was deeply affected by the financial crisis, and her father was deeply mired in economic fraud (framed by Cocolia). At the end of the prison, almost all of the property was frozen. Cocolia later took over the corp for herself.
This incident has had a major impact on Mei, and it has made her cheerful personality a bit solitary.
Daughter of ME CEO[]
Her father, Raiden Ryoma, was a young leader in the science and technology field. After taking over the position of the ME president at the age of 30, he transformed the ME Corp from a commercial electrical appliance manufacturer into a smart electronic company with the world's most valuable technology secrets for more than a decade.
1 out of every 10 electronic devices in the world is equipped with electronic chips produced by ME.
Raiden Ryoma once became a representative of Japan's domestic technological innovation and business thinking revolution, and was sought after by countless young people.
However, little is known, based on unpublished statistical data, ME has become the world's largest military supply provider, and has maintained a hidden cooperative relationship with many major countries, secretly developing the next generation of combat weapons.
For this reason, although Ryoma has not publicly involved in the political arena, it has a small impact on the ruling and opposition pattern.
As the daughter of ME president, although she lived the life of Missy since childhood, Raiden Mei formed a noble temperament with graceful elegance and maturity under the strict education of her father.
Mei as a student[]
Since the beginning of primary school, she has been outstanding in performance, as a student leader, and widely supported among students.
Her noble beauty is the object of countless boys' dreams, combined with a natural cool temperament, and is called the "Queen of Thunder".
In middle school, because ME established a high-level research institute in the school city, Mei moved to the school city with her father's family and studied at the Senba Highschool.
Only 1 month after enrolment, Mei became the most popular idol in the school. The name "Queen of Thunder" had spread again.
However, when Mei was popular as the 'Queen', a huge change came to the fore.
The Great Impact[]
The ME company suddenly exposed an economic fraud case. Ryoma was not only dismissed from the board of directors because of the alleged falsification of financial documents, but also suffered a prison sentence, and his reputation plummeted. Thisis incident had a great impact on Mei. The classmates who originally surrounded Mei had suddenly cold-eyes towards her. Even her "closest" friends have been keeping their distance intentionally or unintentionally.
As a lost girl, she has stood on the shackles of the crowd and now suffers from various forms of discrimination.
After trying to muster all kinds of human feelings, Mei learned to be more sensitive and delicate to see the people around her. She still maintains the restraint as a noble lady. The more she is discriminated against, the more she has to build a shell to protect herself. Tears remain in the corners that no one sees. Inevitablyly, the cold-hearted view of Mei on the world also bred hatred deep inside. After the the father’s incident, Mei no longer participated in any club activities after school. She found herself a corner that was undisturbed, and the ME Institute was sealed up.
t was the place where her father worked day and night before the incident, and that Mei felt that she felt the closest to her father.
She also hopes to find the clues to what happened before her father's incident. She faintly feels that her father was framed.
Unfortunately, after the institute was seized, from disk to paper, any possible information has been destroyed. Until one day, in the empty uninhabited research institute, Mei suddenly found a suspicious object. The man left a strange box. Driven by curiosity, Mei had an opportunity to change her destiny and the destiny of the whole world.
The 3rd Herrscher was triggered at the same time that Mei opened the door of fate. Mei became the Herrscher of Thunder, causing a massacre after being taken over by her Herrscher persona. Soon after, her underclassmen in named Kiana Kaslana fought the 3rd Herrscher and saved Mei. Despite her suicide attempt after being freed, she was caught by Kiana. Soon after, they ran away and fought through hordes of zombies and Houkai beasts before the two meet Bronya Zaychik, who was ordered to capture Mei but ended up joining the group.
Honkai Impact 3rd Mainline[]
Escape From Nagazora Comic[]
They encounter a powerful and large Houkai beast that gravely wounded Kiana, who protected Mei from it's attack. It caused Mei to befall in despair and Kiana's wound exasperated the Herrscher and once again took control of an grieving Mei. After disposing the monster, though, she was assailed by Hyperion, a battleship from Shicksal, who wield the intentions of killing her and end the arisen 3rd Houkai War. Himeko fought the Herrscher, but was simply outmatched. It was only when Kiana resuscitated and absorbed the Houkai energy from the 3rd Herrscher's wings with her bare hands that she was stopped and the 3rd Houkai War came to an end.
In the aftermath of the event, Mei, Kiana and Bronya were taken to Saint Freya Academy, with Bronya joining later after she was found in the Hyperion. Mei was locked in a cell where Himeko confronted her and told her that Kiana fully recovered from her wounds. Grateful for their help, Mei gives Shicksal sanction to do whatever they want with her, even to the point she allowed them to kill her. This revolted Himeko instead, who proposed to train her to control her prowess. When Mei counter-argued that her inability to control the 3rd Herrscher made her a threat, Himeko told her a bomb near her heart would be placed as indemnification. Afterwards, Mei jubilantly reunites with Kiana and Bronya, and the trio transferred to Saint Freya Academy.
Chapter 1: Dusk - Girls - Battleship[]
Some time after enrolling in St. Freya High School, an incipient honkai energy surge was picked up and Theresa dispatched Himeko's student team to deal with it. Unexpectedly awaiting for them in the air qas an alarmingly astronomically immense battleship found flying in monitored airspace south of Soukai City. Himeko deploys Kiana, including Mei and Bronya, to make their way in the battleship in different paths before meeting each other again.
Upon reaching the battleship Kiana joins Mei to investigate the outside of the ship. Kiana starts to feel faint and loses conciousness, leaving Mei alone to defend the ship trying to buy Bronya enough time to disengage alarm and defense protocols of the ship. As the situation gets dire, Mei feeling like she has no choice, permits her Herrscher personality to take out the Emperor class Houkai beast that attacked the two, only to also become exhausted and collapse into the arms of Bronya who was just finishing the process of hacking the mysterious battleship. Accessing the Moonlight Throne database, Bronya notices something is wrong but loses control of her body and the bio-chip inside her brain enabled Cocolia to fully manipulate Bronya. Under control of Cocolia, she turns from searching the database to confront and attack the recently awoken team mates but is luckily subdued by her friends. Kiana and Mei opt to keep the body snatching event from Himeko or Theresa in fear of losing their friend and trusting Bronya's innocence. Himeko's communication cuts back in and she asks for a briefing. After Himeko got a vague report from Kiana, knowing the girls are keeping something from her, she plays along with the girl's report since everyone is alive.
After finding the message about Kiana, they opt to keep Selene under Shicksal for further inspection due to Kiana's connection to it.
Chapter 2: Voice in the Dream[]
Returning to Saint Freya Academy, Theresa and Himeko task Mei and Bronya to help tutor Kiana and ask for the special help of the Hall Monitor and A-Rank Valkyrja Fu Hua for special training. Sirin's power drives were slowly awakening, causing her to revive inside of Kiana's subconsciousness. Later on, despite showing a good charisma at the first time they met, Sirin revealed her true colors in the second nightmare that got even more intense and Sirin assumed the form of Raiden Mei, using the image of her love interest to mock and shatter her feeling for Mei. Eventually, the two engage in combat but Sirin kept her identity as a secret. When she was defeated in Raiden's skin, she assumed the form of Murata Himeko in another location to taunt Kiana even more. Mei doesn't make that much appearances in this chapter.
Upon the end of the exam, Himeko has found information about the location of the Gem of Desire and of a mythical weapon hidden in the Nine Realms. Upon confirmation of the Location of the Gem of Desire, the girls embark on the Hyperion to meet a Valkyrja named Wendy. Though suspicious, Himeko orders the Valkyrja to head to New Zealand to retrieve the Gem of Desire from Schicksal's Oceanic branch.
