Gender: Female

Age Around 17-19

Appearance: Mei is small and looks young for her age, but in order to remain attractive to Ken, she has been taking herbal medicine that inhibits her growth. She passes for a 10-year-old or a 12-year-old and sometimes takes advantage of this.

She has a slender, petite feminine frame with a youthful, delicate build. She has noticeable curves (small-to-medium breasts, feminine hips) that become more apparent up close or in tighter clothing, despite the child-like proportions. May has short (sometimes mid-neck length), blonde hair that is often cut evenly around the back and sides with slightly messy-looking bangs that frame the face. She has a soft, youthful face and blue-green eyes, giving her an overall "cute" and doll-like appearance.

Her personal style is neat and well put-together rather than being overly flashy. She usually dresses in a sharp but casual / business-casual style that still looks youthful; blouses or button-up shirts (often white or light-colored), skirts (which appear about thigh-length or shorter) or sometimes pants/jeans, light jackets or denim-style jackets (typically red, brown or black. The jacket is also frequently used to conceal explosives.)

Accessories can include a cravat/scarf, belt, stockings, and simple earrings (e.g., silver studs).

Her shoes often have practical hidden compartments (heel or sole) for small explosive charges, detonators, or smoke devices.

She can deliberately dress more child-like to enhance her young appearance, which is extremely useful for infiltration or acting. In action or everyday scenes she is frequently shown carrying or concealing multiple grenades and explosive devices on her person (sewn into clothing, hidden in pockets, shoes, etc.).

She is approximately 146 cm (about 4'9" inches) tall, and weighs around 38 kg (roughly 77–84 lbs).

Personality: She is generally cheerful and has a great "joie de vivre.'' However, she can be short-tempered, especially when someone is harsh towards her lover and mentor Ken Takizawa, or when she is not mature enough to handle certain tasks. This is noticeable when it is suggested that there is a possibility.

Biography: May, a self-proclaimed "bomb specialist," learned her trade from her boyfriend Ken Takizawa. Although she is only 17 years old, she is much more knowledgeable and mature than the average 17 year old girl. When she was 13 she ran away from home for reasons not revealed and was found and cared for by Ken.

When Ken had to go underground for a few years, she worked as a prostitute in a brothel in Chinatown, and she was also involved in mentoring other newcomers before she quit and joined up with Rally to learn firearms. However, her life in a brothel is still a very sensitive topic for her, and although she is very proud of the skills she gained in her brothel, she never brings it up again.

Additional Information: ● "Minnie" May Hopkins is the main deuteragonist in Gunsmith Cats anime/manga series, she is Rally's partner and usually serves as the duo's demolition expert with a myriad of grenades and other explosives. Usually acts as a support for Rally in whatever adventures he gets involved in.

● She has the nickname "Minnie-May" because of Rally (or other various characters) stating that she's "as cute as Minnie Mouse."

● May is an expert at making, hiding, placing, and disarming explosives. She can also smell high explosives.

● There are some instances where she names her bombs and treats them affectionately.

● Her signature weapon are the "May Special" grenades (which are modified to produce little or no shrapnel for non-lethal use).

● She carries a wide variety of grenades and charges hidden on her person (sewn into jackets, in pockets, in shoe heels/soles, etc.). One shoe often has plastique and detonators; the other may have a pink-smoke charge.

● She's obsessed with explosives to the point of having a grenade-themed condiment set (Rally snarks about the "pineapple" dressing) - not to mention the countless real ones scattered about the gunshop/home.

● In the anime OVA, she is occasionally seen talking in her sleep about Ken.

● She has a decent shot with small firearms, basic car mechanics, first aid, and B&E skills.

● May is excellent at disguises and acting, doing things such as: successfully pretending to be a boy for months, crying/blushing on command, once impersonating a child star and fooling a film crew, and doing convincing voice imitations.

● She drives a classic Fiat 500 (the vanity plate sometimes noted as MEY-117). She often needs a seat cushion and sometimes tin cans taped to the pedals because of her size. May's Fiat was never actually sold in America.

● May is an ekrixiphiliac — she's literally turned on by explosions and the scent of gunpowder.

● She takes offense to being called "old".

● While she's supposed to be a 17/19-year-old teen, May looks just as short as the 13-year-old pre-teen she was when she ran away from her home. This is due to her taking growth-stunting herbal drugs in order for her to try and stay attractive for her boyfriend, Ken Takizawa.

● She can be considered a "Sex God". She is just that good at her former job. A fellow male escort decides to test drive her technique in one early chapter and he is nearly dead of exhaustion next morning unable to believe that Minnie made him climax twelve times.

● She has a slight tendency to use home-made concussion grenades in inappropriate situations... usually clusters of them, in the OVA. However, she's every bit as skilled in their use as Rally is with handguns. A single one will just leave a couple of gang members stunned for a minute or so. She can use three to blow out a pursuing car's drive shaft. And when she's really pissed off, she'll set off a dozen of them at once, causing extensive damage to whatever building she's in (typically shown with a Discretion Shot of the outside of the building with all the windows breaking and billowing out smoke).

● According to the anime, Rally and May's diet consists almost entirely of pizza (when it's Rally's turn to get dinner) and Chinese (when it's May's turn).

● She puts pineapple sauce on almost everything she cooks.

● She has a room that still looks like a little girl's (complete with a favorite plushie).

Relationships: ● Rally Vincent Rally is her best friend, business partner, roommate, and fellow bounty hunter. They bicker a lot but are deeply loyal of one another. May sometimes acts as the more impulsive one who needs rescuing.

● Ken Takizawa (also called Ken Taki / "Kenny") Ken is her mentor, first love, and later husband (only in the sequel). He's a Japanese-American explosives expert (former mob hitman/special effects guy). They have a significant age gap (he's in his 30s when she's 17–19, and Rally and other characters have pointed out the problems inherent to this). She is completely devoted to him.

● Becky Farrah Becky is the information broker and friend to May.

● Other recurring allies Bean Bandit, Misty Brown, Detective Roy Coleman, etc.
