Personality
Minako gives off the impression of a spoiled young woman who doesn't care for the well-being of others. Her and her boyfriend, Satoru Nakae, are quick to assume Kira is a thief despite the latter merely pushing Minako's bag off his lap. They are also willing to quickly shift blame onto Kira for them bumping into him despite their carelessness being the cause. Minako was also in the habit of sneaking out at night, resulting in her father's worrying.[2]
History
Diamond is Unbreakable
Minako is introduced a young woman who is seen riding the train Kira takes home from work, complaining to her boyfriend, Satoru Nakae, about her supposedly overbearing father. She was noted to frequently sneak out of the house late at night, prompting her father to follow her out of worry. Once Minako noticed him, she tried to teach him a lesson by stealing something on purpose just to let him see it. She subsequently ran away from home and moved in with Satoru, but still kept in contact with her mother. As she told the story enthusiastically to her boyfriend, they were unaware that Kira was sitting next to them, trying to control his killer instincts. Bothered by her bag being on top of his leg, Kira pushed it away, and the couple accused him of trying to steal it.
As they got off the train, Satoru and Kira bumped into each other, knocking Kira's things to the ground. Satoru yelled at Kira again, and the couple mocked his "lame" nail clippers. Tired of the repeated confrontations, Kira followed the couple home. Entering the apartment just as Satoru promised to buy her a new pair of earrings, Kira blew him up instantly with Killer Queen. Unable to resist his desires any longer, he forced Minako to cut his fingernails. Just before blowing her up, Kira took her boyfriend's ears and hung them on her own, telling her that her boyfriend had left some earrings behind for her.[2] After killing Minako, Kira took her hand as his new "girlfriend" and planned to take it with him to Kosaku's house, but was forced to destroy the hand after seeing Hayato leaving the scene with a camera.[3]The information below derives from a source not written by Araki. As such, it may or may not be considered canon.
Jotaro Kujo visits her apartment during his investigation of reported missing people soon after Kira leaves. At the crime scene, he finds her bag and some blood left from her boyfriend.[4]
