She expresses her emotions through pantomime by moving the limbs of her handmade black cat plushie, "Mute." She herself remains expressionless and emotionless. She is silent and does not speak. Because of this, she communicates even less than Juri. However, she connects with others through her plushies. Her expressionless nature makes her a natural at playing the stagehand in the theater troupe; even without lines, her acting and expressive abilities are outstanding. She usually spends her time making and selling plushies with her sister Juri, or going on performances as a two-person theater troupe. Additionally, she can play the xylophone. This allows her to perform music and sound effects on the xylophone while acting in the plushie theater.
