Murasaki Izumiko

Izumiko is an alien dressed in a pink bear suit which is actually a protective suit. While appearing by projection to most people as a "beautiful, slender girl with long black hair", Jun'ichi could never see this image and only sees her in a pink bear suit. Stranded on earth about 820 light years from home, she works part-time (amusingly, as a pink bear mascot) to support herself. Her name is actually only an alias, based on the names of the Japanese poets Murasaki Shikibu and Izumi Shikibu, and her real name is not known. Izumiko has no dialogue in either anime series but occasionally appears as a passerby.
