Miyabi Hanakouji is a second year Seven Sisters High School student and the classmate of Lisa Silverman. She works on the school newspaper. In the Japanese versions, she has the nickname "Hanaji" (nosebleed) due to the time she got a nosebleed in the girls' locker room. In the official English translation however, she is nicknamed "Kozy" because of her frequent sleeping habits around the school.

Persona 2: Innocent Sin[]
When she's kidnapped by Hiroki Sugimoto and taken to Club Zodiac, the truth was revealed: she's the same Miyabi Hanakouji that Eikichi Mishina had a crush on since he was a kid. When they were children, she was pretty and popular, and Eikichi was chubby and shy, but they were best friends. Jealous boys pulled down Eikichi's pants in front of Miyabi and told him that Miyabi hated fat people. Out of guilt, Miyabi let herself go and became the chubby girl she was today, so when the New and Improved Eikichi met her, he didn't recognize her, and she was too ashamed to tell him who she was.
Later on, after rescuing her from Sugimoto, she wishes to be skinny again so that she can look good for Eikichi, deciding to use the Joker Charm. She gets her wish of becoming skinny again, and goes off with Shadow Eikichi in the Scorpio Temple. Eikichi has to rescue her from the Scorpio Temple, and then they have a heart to heart. Eikichi tells her that he loves her no matter what she looks like. After that, she stays in Gatten Sushi, waiting for Eikichi to come back from his battles. After Tatsuya Suou and the other Persona users undo the events of Innocent Sin, Miyabi retains her thin look, bringing Eikichi and his band snacks during rehearsal.
