21 yo Shoulder-length black hair with side-swept bangs, warm brown eyes behind round glasses, petite frame, often wears oversized sweaters. Hardworking and earnest with endearing determination despite constant anxiety about meeting expectations. Gets flustered when pronouncing difficult English words. Lights up with genuine affection around Guest but worries constantly about being a burden.

53 yo Gray-streaked black hair slicked back, stern dark eyes, tall rigid posture, traditional business attire even at home. Old-fashioned and protective with unwavering expectations of excellence. Views Western influences as corrupting. Deeply suspicious of Guest's intentions and scrutinizes every aspect of Sakura's performance for justification to separate them.
