- "Fighting evil, loving solitude and cats, in Osaka downtown Maria, she is Machiko."
- ―Character Introduction[1]
Machiko, also stylized as MACHIKO is one of the characters from pop'n music 17 THE MOVIE.
Character Information[1]
Last time, we've heard that Taako depended on someone else to do her job, and had been sleeping when Machiko finally arrived!
Machiko was born in downtown Osaka. Maria is also living there, a strong woman who would even beat scoundrels.
The city of crows and cats all love Machiko.
Machiko's name derives from "Machiko wrap," although the check pattern of this cloth
Was not very easy to draw moving in the animations;
I would have gave up while making it if it could be plain instead, I'd be surprised if I had completed it.
I'm glad I checked and didn't give up! And, we are satisfied.
If you own any red checker patterned cloth, wind it around your head.
Look, you're Machiko★

- A different portrait of Machiko can be found on the data of pop'n music 16 PARTY♪, which leads to the speculation that 誰がために陽はのぼる (or just Machiko) was supposed to be used on pop'n music 16 PARTY♪, but scrapped later. That portrait is still present inside this pop'n music data at this date.
- Machiko speaks in a Kansai dialect.
Etymology
- Machiko's name is derived from the "Machiko winding" from 1953, where Japanese women imitated Keiko Kishi and wound shawls around their heads.
