History

In the Voice Drama

Meguru plays the role of one of many Marisa Kirisames in the Kussokuri☆ voice drama, and shows up alongside Yuuhi to replace the previous Marisa, Akane. Like Yuuhi, she incites the ire of Shiromiya by calling her old, plays with the KogaNeko cat, and defeats Iseamoa by shooting a Master Spark paired with Yuuhi into his buttocks. At the end, after delivering every present with Shiromiya, she left with Yuuhi to sing karaoke.

Real Life

At the time of her debut in the voice drama, Atouda didn't inform her of the danger of appearing in a Cookie☆ voice drama, so it seemed as if she overlooked the precautions taken at the time of her performance, and didn't seem to understand the reputational risk of appearing in a Cookie☆ voice drama. Despite her tone being very boyish and childlike, apparently Meguru was an adult by the time she voice-acted in Kussokuri☆. While some of the voice actors who appeared in Kussokuri☆ were active and held live broadcasts or participated in other voice dramas, Meguru was comparatively reluctant to do so. Her attitude towards Cookie☆ in general were negative and she retired sometime soon. Nevertheless, she has also collaborated with Shiromiya in a voice play and through singing with her as a duo. The whereabouts of Meguru today are unknown.
