Mew Mew Characters: Berry

Berry Shirayuki is the 6th Mew Mew (only in the manga Tokyo Mew Mew a la mode). Her mother died when Berry was five, so she was very upset. Her friend, Tasuku Meuuro hugged her and now he hugs her everyday.

Berry is now twelve years old. She goes to a private, all-girls school which she worked hard to get into (though she admitted that the real reason she wanted to attend that particular school was because they had "cute" school uniforms). She must take a daily, hour-long journey on the subway to get there. After her first day of school, Berry almost falls down a set of stairs, but was saved by Elliot, who caught her. He then invited her to Café Mew Mew and she accepted his invite and went there to admire the treats that were being displayed.

Later, Elliot caught Berry by surprise and she fell into a pastry display. She ran away, and went through a DNA infusion machine, which merged her DNA with that of two endangered animals: The Amami Black Rabbit and the Andes Mountain Cat. She passed out after that and when she awoke, she was given R2003, a robot she nicknamed Ucha, by Ryou. Zoey, the former leader of the Mew Mews, is absent for most of this series because she is visiting England to study endangerd animals with her boyfriend Mark. During her absence, Berry takes over as the temporary leader of the Mew Mews in chapter four.

As Berry meets the Mew Mews, she is also introduced to the new villains, who call themselves the Saint Rose Crusaders. Ucha gives Berry guidance and transforms into the unnamed staff Berry uses to fight. As the "second strongest" Mew Mew, Berry becomes the primary target of the Saint Rose Crusaders. They hypnotise the city of Tokyo, but Berry has realised she is in love with her childhood friend Tasuku, who still hugs her every day. Her feelings for him confused her until she was able to come to terms with her them. Together, Tasuku and Berry used their warm feelings of love to release the city's citizens from the Saint Rose Crusaders hypnotism. At the end of the series, Berry and Tasuku are still a couple, the "lovebirds” of the café, and work side-by-side as the cafe's new door-to-door delivery service.
