* FallenPrincess: Miho hails from the most respected (and feared) family of Tank Warriors in Japan, and yet humiliates her family by breaking her school's decade-long streak of undefeated championships by electing to help teammates from drowning rather than holding a key position; coupled with her mother's already cold and and distant upbringing this drives a deep wedge between her and the rest of her family, prompting her to move to Oarai High School.
