She treats everyone equally but tends to be a bit of a worrier. She was once persecuted as "Tainted Goods" because of the mark on her forehead, but Yakoh fell in love with her during a visit to the Hakurenji house and took her as his bride.

If she were to marry, she thinks Rentaro would be best. Captain of the 5th Unit, known as the "Diva of the Empire." When she calls someone by their full name and asks a question, the sound resonates in their brain, forcing them to answer. She can also perform spirit channeling.
