Mitty (ミーティ, Mīti) is an amorphous Narehate who lived with Nanachi in the 4^th Layer of The Abyss. Mitty had been a regular human girl in the past, but her appearance changed drastically due to the Curse of the 6^th Layer.

In The Village of Iruburu, it is revealed that Belaf had exchanged Value to create an exact replica of Mitty, after Bondrewd had brought her into the village. This duplicate even had an exact copy of Mitty's soul from that moment in time.

Appearance

As a human, Mitty had red, long hair which was messy, sticking out at random angles, some of which was tied into a ponytail. At the time, she wore a red bralette and yellow cloth skirt. One of her most notable features is her distinctive red eye color.

After being subjected to the Curse of the 6^th Layer, Mitty's body became more animal-like, with long claws, light pink fur, and cat-like ears. Her mouth, now, split vertically.

After being subjected to further experimentation, her body became hideously deformed with odd bulges, disheveled fur, and a gnarled smile. Her appearance being the result of repeatedly regenerating from tests of her immortality. Notably, one of her eyes was permanently destroyed by Bondrewd's Artifact, Sparagmos, the only injury she never could recover from in any way.

Personality

As a human, Mitty wanted to become a White Whistle Delver. She was very upbeat and positive, continuously pondering about the world around her and always tried to look on the bright side of things, even if Nanachi was often negative. She was very outgoing, as she was the one who first approached Nanachi and insisted on being friends and partners.

After becoming a Narehate, her intelligence vanished and she could no longer communicate with Nanachi, only capable of making soft mewling noises and was unable to move under her own power beyond crawling short distances. When hurt, she cried reflexively, but likely didn't feel any physical sensation nor emotion; as Nanachi said, Mitty's soul was "trapped inside" her Narehate form.

History

Dreadful Experimentation Flashback Arc

As a human, Mitty was brought down to the 5^th Layer by Bondrewd along with other children. During the descent, she met Nanachi and the two gradually became close friends.

This was unfortunately short-lived, as once they arrived at Ido Front, Bondrewd used them as test subjects for his experiment in warding the Curse. Nanachi and Mitty were put in an elevator that rapidly lowered them to the Miniature Garden of Dawn in the 6^th Layer and forced them to ascend. The pair of capsules they were in transferred Nanachi's Curse onto Mitty, leaving Nanachi unharmed, though with some rabbit-like characteristics. Mitty had remained positive until the Curse took effect, insisting she would survive, and even attempting to calm Nanachi down by repeating that it would be okay. Once the Curse began affecting her, she was reduced to agonized screams interspersed with begging Nanachi to kill her. The experiment resulted in Mitty's body deforming beyond recognition, reducing her to an almost mindless lump of flesh.

Bondrewd continued to experiment on her and found that she was virtually indestructible. Unable to bear Mitty's suffering any longer, Nanachi took Mitty and fled to the 4^th Layer. There, Nanachi located a hideout for them to live in. During this time, Nanachi attempted numerous times to put Mitty out of her misery, but nothing could finish her off.

Poison and Soul Liberation Arc

After Nanachi sent Reg to collect the ingredients needed to help Riko, Mitty spent a lot time near the unconscious Riko. When Nanachi observes Reg's Incinerator, during the second encounter with the Orb Piercer, they are surprised that it seems very similar to Bondrewd's Artifact, Sparagmos, and realizes they may finally found the way to free Mitty from her suffering. After the fight is concluded and Reg asks how he can ever repay Nanachi for all their help they ask him a for a favor; to kill Mitty and set her free.

Reg, first shocked by such an request, reluctantly agrees; after having given it some thought, but only if Nanachi promises they won't take their own life afterwards out of sorrow. Nanachi agrees and they prepare a final resting spot for Mitty, surrounded with stuffed animals. Reg uses his Incinerator on her that she finally dies. Nanachi bursts out in tears and mourns the loss of their friend, while being comforted by Reg.

Later on, Riko reveals, while she was unconscious and her mind was tortured by the poison, she felt the presence of another girl being even more unfortunate than she was and they comforted each other with just sensing each other's presences.

Just before Riko woke up she felt the presence of the other girl, being Mitty, moving on.

Iruburu Arc

Despite her supposed death, a Mitty replica is now seen to reside in Iruburu, where it is said a "masked man" brought her along with him. Belaf smelled the original Mitty's true immortality and craved it so much that he gave up large portions of his body for her to be "born/replicated" into Iruburu. Since then, Belaf has used her as his main source of food, saying that Mitty never runs out, no matter how much of her is eaten. This Mitty is a replica of the original Mitty down to the soul of that moment in time.

Later on, Majikaja reveals to Nanachi, in a conversation about value, that one of The Three Sages of the village, Belaf, is in possession of the supposed-to-be-dead Mitty. Nanachi asks Majikaja to take them to the sage.

Later on, Riko visits the sage since she has been informed to find Nanachi with him. Riko finds Nanachi and Mitty with Belaf and he tells her how he attained the Mitty replica. In a short flashback, it is shown how Nanachi is moved to tears, out of happiness to be reunited with Mitty, and how they are shocked moments later as they watch how Belaf extends his feelers to drink from Mitty.

Belaf tells Riko that Nanachi offered themself up to him in exchange for ownership of Mitty, so that Belaf couldn't drink from her anymore, and that he is willing to sell Nanachi back to Riko if she can give him something of similar value.

After Nanachi wakes up, from the trembles of the ongoing battle between Faputa and the villagers, they tell Mitty of their dream.

As Nanachi is about to take their leave with Mitty, Belaf points her in the direction where the barrier started to disappear. If Mitty should be brought beyond, she will cease to exist. This is because every being that was created in the village can only exist in it, and will stop existing if taken outside it.

Nanachi is torn, due to the happiness they feel for having gotten a second chance to see Mitty, but decides their blessing wasn't given to them by Mitty just to remain in a dream. This time, Nanachi chooses to set Mitty free with their own hands and starts making the way to the end of the barrier. Belaf as well, starts heading for the barrier. As Nanachi gets closer to the barrier, they reminisce about all the new things they learned and with, teary eyes, tells Mitty they will definitely meet again. After that, Mitty fades away completely.

Abilities

Immortality

After becoming a Narehate, Mitty was resistant to every form of Bondrewd's torture and experimentation. She had stakes driven through her and limbs chopped off, but she regenerated every time, with limbs growing back in place of those that were lost, and all poisons and venom neutralized. The only known limit to this ability was recounted by Nanachi, who saw Bondrewd using Sparagmos, an artifact similar to Reg's Incinerator, on Narehate Mitty. Mitty's eye was hit by the light and could not regenerate anymore. Nanachi tried everything they could to put her out of her misery during their time together. In the end, the only thing that was ultimately able to kill her was Reg's Incinerator.

Trivia

• The pot housing the replica Mitty, in Iruburu, was specifically made to suit Mitty. Her fur can be seen sticking out of it. This Mitty is said to be fragrant.
• The surroundings in Belaf's House are brightly colored, giving Mitty's eyes a sparkle. She is also surrounded by sweet-smelling flowers. A lot of space has been set aside so that her cries carry better.
• Initially, Akihito Tsukushi had planned for Mitty to be the little brother of Nanachi.
• Bondrewd began testing for proof of Mitty's immortality after Belaf had identified her as a "real immortal".
• After settling in the 4^th Layer, Nanachi gifts Mitty with a plush doll of the bird that they had heard while being transported to the Ido Front. In actuality, this bird does not exist in the world of Made in Abyss.
