Michiru Kagemori is the main protagonist of the anime series BNA: Brand New Animal produced by Studio Trigger. She was formerly a normal, human high school student who then mysteriously transformed into a tanuki beastman shortly after being in an accident which had her and her best friend Nazuna Hiwatashi hospitalized. She is a thin, athletic girl with orange and brown fur, short blue and navy hair, a bushy tail, and light blue eyes that sometimes become half blue, half pink. Her regular attire in the anime consists of a light grey shirt, a red track jacket, blue gym shorts, and sneakers.

Michiru's life was fairly mundane before she became a beastman. She went to high school in a rural area and was above average in sports like basketball. Everything changed following the accident and Nazuna were involved in, causing them to transform into beastmen shortly after and for Nazuna to be taken away by men in black. Seeking to find answers and a cure for their transformation, Michiru leaves her home in the dead of night to get a one-way ticket the Anima City, a city where only beastmen are allowed to live. Michiru is a strong-willed, stubborn, and spirited. Once she makes up her mind it is difficult to sway her, and this frequently leads to her to acting recklessly with no consideration even for her own safety. Despite this, she is very empathetic and fiercely dedicated to helping her friends no matter what.
