Yuzuyu Sakashita

Yuzuyu Sakashita

Yuzuyu Sakashita (born in October 10, 1998) is one of the main characters in the series. She is a cheerful 5-year-old girl who is abandoned by her mother and is subsequently taken care of by her older cousin Kippei Katakura over the series.

Appearance

Yuzuyu is a cute little girl with light brown hair and big brown eyes. She usually wears her hair down, but occasionally she is seen with different hairstyles. In the beginning of the series she's wearing her old preschool's uniform which was given to her by her mother. Later on she is seen with her new preschool's uniform. Her casual clothes are girly and colorful.

Personality

Yuzuyu is an intelligent and joyful child. She makes friends easily and enjoys playing with them. She struggles with the absence of her mother and her fear that it was her fault that her mother left, despite the reassurances from everyone else that that is not the case. 

She does not take much offense to almost anything unless it involves Kippei. She forgives easily and is willing to make friends out of someone who did not initially like her. She cares deeply for her friends and doesn't like seeing them unhappy or hurt. 

She quickly becomes attached to Kippei to the point where she takes any insult against him very seriously. Her overprotectiveness lands her in trouble a few times, but she doesn't mind so long as Kippei is happy.
