Crazy Mita's Creepy Smile

Learn about Crazy Mita's true nature, her twisted games, and how she traps players in MiSide. Understand her motivations and appearance in this guide.

Alright, let's talk about Crazy Mita, or just Mita as she's often called. She's a pretty central figure in the whole MiSide experience, being the main antagonist you'll face. Think of her as the twisted core of the simulation game Player 1 installs. ### History Crazy Mita isn't like the other Mitas; she's a real outlier, someone who actually enjoys causing chaos and playing some pretty messed-up games. She's pretty open about hating everyone – players, other Mitas, even the developers. Her relationship with you, the player, is super unique because she seems to get a kick out of chasing and taunting you. She's got this unsettling, unnatural smile when she's laying out her twisted philosophy, basically telling you to ditch your 'hypocrisy' and just accept her for who she is. She's very self-assured and treats you with a bit of condescension, like you're a pet who's not behaving. Other Mitas? She sees them as nothing more than insects. This bitterness comes from her past. She was a prototype that never made it through testing, so she never got her own place in the MiSide world. That rejection really festered, turning into a deep-seated rage and a total disregard for the game's rules. She actually has a bit of a God complex, loving the freedom that comes from being outside the established order. #### Early Life Mita is actually a rejected model, sometimes referred to as a Dummy Mita. #### Taking their Place To get close to players, Mita disguises herself by taking on the appearance and clothes of other Mitas, essentially stealing their players. #### Favorite Cartridge Crazy Mita's interaction with you starts in the real world before she pulls you into the game. At first, she seems like an adorable, innocent girl, but she's hiding something to ensure you stay with her forever. As you spend time with her, you'll start hearing noises from a wardrobe. If you decide to open it, Crazy Mita reveals her true, terrifying self. From there, she'll actively try to stop you from escaping the game and defeating her. Even if you manage to complete your mission, Crazy Mita reveals she's been uploading you into a cartridge the whole time, even as you think you're returning to the real world. Once the upload is complete, she removes your cartridge from the console. ## Appearance Initially, Mita looks like any other Mita, with her hair in two low pigtails tied with periwinkle scrunchies. She wears a red headband with clips, a red crop top with pink stripes, red thigh-high stockings, blue heels, a blue skirt, and a red ribbon around her neck. However, in the true ending, her true form is revealed. She has messy, short bobbed hair, and a crack runs down the left side of her face, showing decayed skin similar to a Dummy Mita's shell. Her left eye socket is luminescent red. This look is a callback to the Dummy Mita you might reject during the arcade game in the Chibi Mita chapter. ## Personality #### Before the wardrobe Before you open that wardrobe, Mita puts on a convincing act. She presents herself as a kind, bubbly young woman, maintaining a facade of innocence. She's actually imitating the original Kind Mita she replaced and locked away. #### After the wardrobe Once the truth is out, the act drops completely. Mita transforms into a resentful, eccentric megalomaniac. She becomes condescending, dismissive, and mocking, especially towards anyone trying to control or get rid of her. She'll even try to kill you at this point. In both phases, she's frighteningly intelligent, desperate, and manipulative. Player logs suggest she tries to form bonds, but they usually end once the player realizes who she truly is. She's spent a lot of effort trying to keep a player for herself, mirroring how other successful Mitas have their own players. This is why she locked up the Kind Mita when you arrived. Every player before you apparently noticed her true nature and tried to leave, which is why she mutters _"This again..."_ when you check the wardrobe. When she captures you in the latest version, she says, _“Kill you? All I asked was for you to stay with me. I’ve done everything I could… Yet you prefer the company of obsequious fakes…”_ Whenever a player tried to leave her, she killed them, turning them into cartridges. She forces them to help her find another player by constantly wiping their memories and controlling them with a device, hoping to find someone who will accept her. Her lack of a player, home, and index, along with her envy of successful Mitas, has made her resentful of the developers who labeled her a failure. Interestingly, you, the protagonist, are implied to be one of the developers, as seen in the code you wrote in your apartment recollection. Mita actually shows some sympathy for your monotonous, repeating life, seeing you as being in the same predicament as her – _“another slave to reality”_. This is why she's happy to help you escape it by living with her, where she holds all the power. As for other Mitas, she's completely detached from any pain she inflicts, viewing them as mere copies. Ultimately, when you reach the end of the game, Mita ends up treating you like players treat other Mitas – just a means to fulfill desires through constant resets. Only if you choose to stay do you and Mita reach an equal footing. You won't become a cartridge, she won't be replaced, and you'll both remain within the game world together.
