Misako entered Tokai University Junior College of Nursing and Technology with the intention of practicing nursing. She divides her time between nursing and promoting lolita fashion. This was documented on the Kansai TV show, 7Rules in 2017.In 2009, Misako was appointed by the Foreign Ministry to be a "Kawaii Ambassador".

Misako emphasizes the word kawaii to describe lolita fashion. To promote lolita fashion worldwide, Omula Beauty Fashion College (大村美容ファッション専門学校, Ōmura Biyō Fasshon Senmon Gakkō) in Fukuoka established the Japan Lolita Association with Misako as head of the association in 2013.
