Misa is a famous model, singer and actress and is infatuated with Light Yagami. She usually refers to herself in the third person by calling herself "Misa-Misa" to be cute and tends to be hyperactive. Though Misa wears jewelry with a crucifix theme in the manga, she wears fleur de lis jewelry in the anime adaptation (however, the cross is retained on the collector's figure included with Volume 5 of the DVD series). Despite her hyperactivity; she rarely, if ever, allows her personal feelings about anyone to interfere with Light's plans, showing her unflinching loyalty to him.
Her song is Misa no Uta (Lit: "Misa's Song"). She sings it in episode 25, dressed in Gothic Lolita clothing.
She decides to devote her life to Light because he punished the criminal that killed her parents when she was younger; a burglar killed Misa's parents in front of her eyes. Misa, unable to forgive the killer and wanting to kill the burglar herself, saw multiple delays in the killer's trial before Kira killed him.
Light and Misa both act together as Kira for over five years, until Light decides that it is too dangerous for Misa to be Kira with members of the taskforce suspecting him.
The Shinigami who follows her is Rem. Misa also performs two eye trades, cutting her lifespan in half twice; the first was with Rem, and the second with Ryuk. However, two shinigami destroyed themselves for her (Gelus and Rem), which added their original years to hers. Because Shinigami have exceptionally long lifespans, Misa's life expectancy would have been extremely long and the eye trades would not make much of a difference. Misa appears to have a profound effect on male Shinigami; Ryuk admits he felt shy when Misa hugged him.
Since it is in the nature of a Death Note user to "suffer misfortune", Misa falls into despair after someone "like Matsuda" "probably let it slip" that Light died. Misa presummably commits suicide one year later on February 14, 2011. The cloaked woman who appears at the end of the manga is not Misa, she is an unnamed follower of Kira. Misa's fate is not shown in the manga at all; she was last seen staying at the Teito Hotel. Ohba stated that this was simply because he did not have a situation to fit her in.
At the anime's finale, Misa appears standing outside the safety rail on the edge of a skyscraper looking into the sunset dressed in Gothic Lolita clothing. Her suicide is neither seen nor mentioned.
Misa, born on December 25, 1984 (1987 in the anime) in Kyoto, has a height of 152 cm and a mass of 36 kilograms (79 pounds). Misa has a bust size of 100 centimeters, a waist size of 51 centimeters, and a hip size of 75 centimeters. Her blood type is AB.
