Mio Akiyama

Mio Akiyama is a character from K-On!, a manga created by Kakifly and adapted into anime by Kyoto Animation. She is a vocalist and left-handed bass player of the high school band "Houkago Tea Time", who is shy and timid by nature. Mio is based on famous band members like other members of HTT; in her case she resembles the Beatles member Paul McCartney, who also plays the bass left-handed, and she is named after P-Model member Katsuhiko Akiyama.

Mio is the most successful K-On character and one of the most successful anime girls in saimoe tournaments; for this reason she is commonly regarded as the band's frontwoman. During the broadcast of K-On's second season in 2010, Mio won both the International Saimoe League and Korea's Anizone Moe tournament in the same year, making her one of only two girls to achieve this feat (the other being Hinagiku Katsura). She is also a long-time member of the Ten Kings Club compiled by certain wiki contributors around the web.
