Why did we play Haruhikage!
~ Soyo's mad reaction after the first live,also her most famous quote.
I wasn't excepting Anon-chan and Rana-chan to join- She was useful, so I was nice to her! But we don't need either of them in CRYCHIC, right?
~ Soyo revealing her true colors to Taki.

Soyo Nagasaki ( 長崎 そよ Nagasaki Soyo), also known for her stage name as Soyo, is a major character of the BanG Dream! series.

Soyo is a 15-year-old first-year high school student from Tsukinomori Girls' Academy, also the bassist of CRYCHIC and MyGO!!!!!.

She is voiced by Kohinata Mika in Japanese.

Appearance[]

Soyo has long, waist-length light brown hair and grayish-blue eyes. Her band outfit consists of a white turtleneck sweater with black cuffs, a black belt with a silver buckle, and a deep blue skirt with a long outer mesh layer. Her shoes are black with a chartreuse yellow cross on each.

Personality[]

Soyo: What can I do to make you come back? If it's in my power, I WILL DO ANYTHING! (holding Sakiko's hand while benting down her knees)
Sakiko: What sort of resolve do you have as you say that? Can you truly take responsibility for someone else's life? That's how weightly the words "I will do anything" really are.
Sayo: BUT I REALLY DO-
(Sakiko shook Soyo's hand off, staring at her emotionless.)
Sakiko: You only ever think about YOURSELF, don't you?
~ Sakiko's heated arguement with Soyo, after turning down her plea to reunite.

Soyo is premature, caring and friendly to her classmates, making her a reliable figure in her class. She also took care of her overstrained mother, by cooking soup and providing lap pillow for her.

Soyo also played as the role of coordinator in MyGO!!!!!, not until she revealed her true colors: While Anon postponed the band practices for self escape, she encouraged Taki to reveal the truth. She also gave Anon new topics to discuss what to do next.

After Sakiko turned down to reunite with her, Soyo reaveled her cunning, selfish and bad-tempered nature, as she no longer put on her priggism smile toward the band members. Though she still acted gently in front of others, she is fully aware of it.

Soyo could take advantage of others' trust to pursue her goals. Despite Anon regarded her as a bosom friend, she attempted to replace the rookie with former CRYCHIC members instead. She also cheated Tomori that she accepted her dream of joining the band for lifelong , to earn her trust again (Although she really consented to fulfill Tomori's dream afterwards, not before the debut) . She also seemed no guilty for being a liar, as she mocked Taki for also being a selfish person, while the latter confronted her.

Even after redeemed by Anon and Tomori, Soyo still unleashes her true colors toward the band, as giving Anon a stare since she sewed her awkward "Anon Tokyo" tag in the band's stage outfit. She, however, seemed extremely cooperative to their activities, also valued their bonds. In a game cutscene, she drank a bitter vegetable juice to keep healthy, as she could fulfill Tomori's wish of teaming for the whole life.

Being lonely for most of her lifetime, Soyo cherishes her friendship with others, which leads into she has a hard time to letting go of her past. She embraced CRYCHIC as her value to exist for a long time, leading to most of the events afterwards.

Background[]

Past[]

Before moving out with her mother, Soyo led a poor life in a cramped apartment. After her mother became wealthy someday, they moved to a luxury house settled in the top floor of a skyscraper. Despite having her life conditions upgraded, Soyo still led a lonely life while her mother has little time to spend with her, spending the rest of her time running errands on and on.

While Soyo was in junior high, she was invited by Sakiko Togawa, a classmate who was astonished by her performance in an orchestra, to join in the newly founded band, CRYCHIC, as bassist. She seemed enjoyed the days with the band members, singing karaoke with her friends, and uploading their selfies to SNS.

No sooner after their first live, Sakiko's father was evicted by her grandfather owing to failure in investment. Once Sakiko realized her father had become a drunkyard wandering on the streets, she decided to disband CRYCHIC. Even though Soyo made attempts to prevent the members from blaming each other, all her efforts ended up in vain. In a flashback scene , she watched the members left the live house one by one in despair.

At some point in time, Soyo was blocked by Sakiko, as she kept sending text messages to ask her return.

BanG Dream! It's MyGO!!!!![]

Discovered Anon Chihaya starting to form a bond with the former CRYCHIC vocalist, Tomori Takamatsu, Soyo, along with former band drummer, Taki Shiina, reformed the band as they "reunited" in front of Anon. Despite this, she still contacted the former guitarist of CRYCHIC , Mutsumi Wakaba, to fulfill her ultimate goal of rebuilding the band.

At their first live, the band played Haruhikage, one of Sakiko's works during CRYCHIC era , as the guitarist Rana Kanane unconsciously played the intro of the song, making a heartbroken Sakiko ran away from the audience in tears. Noticing the scene, she scolded the band for hurting Sakiko's heart, cut off all contacts with them.

Soyo then forced Mutsumi to led her talk with Sakiko, benting before the former band leader to return as she is willing to do anyting in her power. Regardless of her request, an angered Sakiko warned her not to get in touch with her anymore , leaving the heartbroken bassist alone.

After Rana left the band for feeling bored with Tomori, Taki went to Soyo's school to confront her in person, accusing her that Tomori was once again traumatized. Soyo, however, confessed she had taken advantage of Tomori and Anon's trust, also replied that Taki is selfish as her, for she only want to befriend Tomori, ending the conversation abruptly.

Months after, Anon followed Soyo to her apartment, saying that she had already known herself being tricked, but welcomed the bassist's return as the band needed her, to her surprise. An angered Soyo vowed to destroy the band once and all and spectated Tomori's "Poem-singing" event , where she was pulled onto the stage, handed a bass prepared by Rana, performing the improvisation song[1] while she burst in tears, meaning the band had come to its rebirth. She then agreed Anon to call her "Soyorin" as she wanted.

As the band reformed, Soyo participated in preparing the first live, sewing the stage outfits with Anon, though she seemed reluctantly at first. Her outfit was cut in half by Rana, as Rana mistook Anon's order to cut the cloth rather than the style paper, forcing her to share the robe with Rana by half.

After MyGO!!!!!'s debut, Mutsumi sent cucumbers planted by herself in person. Soyo, annoyed by her words, rejected the present and headed for the celebration banquet. This will boost Mutsumi joining Ave Mujica, a band which Sakiko founded later.

BanG Dream! Ave Mujica[]

Though seemed reluctant at first, Soyo went to Ave Mujica's live concert in Nippon Budokan with Anon upon her request. While the drummer of the band, Yuutenji Nyamu, took her and Mutsumi's masks off regardless of Sakiko's order, forcing the other members (including Sakiko) to did the same, Soyo was visibly shocked.

The next day, Soyo confronted Mutsumi before a field planting withered cucumbers at school, also managed to sought out further information about Ave Mujica.

Trivia[]

  • Her phrase "Why did we play Haruhikage!" had become a meme.
  • Soyo's voice tone would went deep as she revealed her ego. In the self-introduction cut scene, she introduced herself to the staff with a gentle tone (as same as episode 1-6) ,until she had finished the work.
  • When Soyo accompanied Tomori home, she confessed to Tomori that she once disliked her dark-tone lyrics, as they portraited her ego; She, however, embraced them after the reunion. She also said to Tomori that CRYCHIC's past would not be forgetten.
    • This means Soyo is conscious for her acts before, also willing to overcome her past, while Sakiko, also plagued by the band's tragic past, refused to read Tomori's lyrics by the next day.
  • Soyo is the third antagonist present in the BanG Dream! series, along with Shifune Tsuzuki, Chiyu Tamade and Sakiko Togawa.
  • Soyo bears a resemblance to Nana Daiba, another magnificent villian from Bushiroad works:
    • They were seemed as sister figures by classmates, while hiding their self-centered nature.
    • They cherish the old good times, which driven their personality insane and harsh.
    • They got their own redemption by letting their past go.
