Kimmy's Talentswap Event!!!
Ultimate Princess, Sayaka Maizono
Suggested by @serahne-is-here
(Very overdue final request sorry!!)
The reason it took so long is mostly because I didn't have a Sayaka plushie at the time! Even when I finally did, I was swept up in sooo many projects! Still, I hope you didn't completely give up on me 💦
Sayaka is a tough one, especially since pop stars, while they have princess outfits at times, it isn't really any different from normal dresses, aside from maybe being cut a bit shorter and more glitz and glamour. Eventually, I decided that I would rather draw more traditional clothing on her, anyways.
This Sayaka Maizono is the Princess of Japan. She was born into royalty, though the royal family is more of a symbol, rather than having any real political power. However, she takes her duty as a symbol very seriously! People care for her and her opinions on matters, giving her voice power. She tries her best to give her country hope, making visits to make people smile. She also sometimes sings, something she is naturally talented at. The one thing she wants, more than anything else, is to make the citizens of Japan happy.
Her father, as Emperor, is very busy, as well. He often leaves to make appearances at various events across the nation and even sometimes abroad.
So, as a child and up until now, she's only ever had private tutors. She is taught to speak various languages fluently, plays piano and sings, and out of concern for her people's welfare, requested more political and historical lessons. She's a great public speaker. Having given a particularly famous speech at the age of fourteen on Japan's education programs, she's now got the world watching what she can do.
While life as a princess has it's own rewards, it is undeniable that Sayaka is lonely. Her father tries to be there for her birthday and some major holidays, but she lacks other social bonds, save for her servants.
It was, however, expected that Sayaka get invited to Hope's Peak Academy. She looked forward to the day she'd finally be able to attend school as a student and connect with other people more as equals.
And so it was that Hope's Peak Academy sent her a letter, requesting the Princess of Japan, Sayaka Maizono, attend class 78 as the Ultimate Princess.
