“ | If I can become an idol in the Japan that I love... it'd make me happier than anything. | ” |
— Emily Stewart, Online Character Profile |
Emily Stewart (エミリー スチュアート?) is one of the new idols introduced in THE iDOLM@STER: Million Live! series. She is voiced by Yuu Kahara.
Appearance
Personality
Emily is an energetic and cheerful European girl. However, the country that she truly loves is Japan, she has spent her entire life researching about Japan and coming to learn about the country. She has a good grasp on the language, but her speech is overly formal and stilted at times, and she prefers to use older, out-of-use Japanese words instead of loanwords from another language.
Emily aims to be a Yamato Nadeshiko. Her standards of what is appropriate for a Yamato Nadeshiko and what is not is somewhat strange, like how she considers all idols to be Yamato Nadeshiko, or how she tries her best to not use any foreign words (except when she's excited or surprised). She speaks in a very peculiar way, using complicated Japanese terms and words rather than ones more normal for her age. She calls the Producer as "instigator" (仕掛け人様 shikakenin-sama?) or a "pom-pom" (助太刀玉房 sukedachi tamafusa?) (which means something along the line of “a ball that is used to assist/cheer”). To say that Emily has a great love for Japanese culture might actually be an understatement; Emily is really serious about truly becoming a Yamato Nadeshiko and tries her best to act as one, but this might just be because she moved to Japan recently.
