Origin
Japan
Mio (未央, Mio) is a young girl who lives in an abandoned temple with orphans who lost their parents in war. In order to provide food for the children, she serves both of the warring clans during night time. Mio is a dainty lady with long black hair that curls at the edges, and brown eyes. She has her bangs laid across her face which reach her mouth. She wears a frayed red kimono with white flower patterns. Mio is kind and caring as she tend to put others in priority instead of herself. Although her job is difficult, she is determined to work harder and give the best for the orphaned children. She holds a mother figure to them. As said she is not ashamed of her job as long she can earn from it, however she seemed to be self-conscious on how 'impure' her body is.

Dororo
During the Sengoku period, when the whole nation was turned into the battle fields, Kagemitsu, the Lord of Daigo, makes a pact with 12 demon statues in exchange for the prosperity and rulership of the territory as he promises each of the demons a piece of his unborn child. Upon birth, this malformed limbless child is thrown away and cast into a river. Time passes and peace comes to the country. One day, a young thief named Dororo encounters a ronin named Hyakkimaru. Is he man or is he demon… With limbs forged by man and arms of swords, this blind ronin carries out a violent crusade against demons. (Source: Fuji Creative, edited)
