Mei, seventeen year old princess of the Rishiya Clan. Talented and deadly with a bow and arrow. Graceful and beautiful and gracious, too. The curious thing was that the writers of the show never, ever, tried to match her up with any of the heroes, or have any male extras pursuing her. Perhaps Mei had too much else in her life. Or perhaps it was agreed that one woman in a team of four -- and then five -- men, did not need such a complication in her life, especially since there weren't going to be any babies.

Mei was calm where the others were often wild. She was sensitive and intelligent. When Bandora sent down a monster named Gazuraa, a kind of flower demon that was too powerful for the others, Mei was able to defeat it. Like a relative, the Rishiya Princesss Yui, had done, she lay down with a legendary lily to lure the demon. Unlike the other woman, Mei was armed. Though Princess Yui had died to capture the creature, it was Gazuraa who died this time.

Mei also had the unique adventure of, along with Dan, being magically brainwashed into becoming a street punk. The two had a grand time of it, cheating in gambling houses, becoming gangsters, until they were finally cured by the Mandrake Baarza retrieved. Mei ended up being the only one free to defeat the monster they were facing, Thank goodness!
