Example #290: The Friendly Samurai
Anime Relations:
Maji de Watashi ni Koi Shinasai!
This is the Two-hundred-and-ninetieth week of using the "Perfect Anime Girl Sheet". Notice: This Blog may contain Unmarked Spoilers.
==Continuing from last week==
Kimiko: ...Momoyo Kawakami!
*Momoyo nods to the meganekko.*
Momoyo: That's right! Oh, hey! Aren't you that one girl who was watching me fight Topaz a few years back?
Kimiko: That's me! And I'm glad that you remember me!
Momoyo: I never forget a cute girl!
Kimiko: *flusters* She called me cute!
*Rika sighs*
Rika: So who is this amazing fighter you've trained?
Momoyo: Mayumayu, of course!
Riri: Wait, that's an unusual name that I don't recall. Are you sure that you've got the right girl?
Momoyo: I never forget a face, and I mean my friend- SHHH!
*The cat-eared announcer walks up to the stage.*
Announcer: Good and bad news everyone! The bad news is that we seem to have misplaced our idol act!
*The whole place boos.*
Announcer: (to herself) I know, she still needs to repay me for that sundae I got her. (back to crowd) Now, we know that this is a problem so instead we're going to have even MORE fights! And I'm not going to keep you any longer than I have to, so let's look at our first contestants! In the West we have... Emperor Topaz!
*Topaz walks out.*
Riri: Ehh? But he just fought! They can't have him fight so quickly!
Rika: It looks like they can.
Momoyo: Usually there's an idol performance between the first and second rounds. However, since Topaz was last in the first round and first in this round, without that break he'll have to endure the damage.
Riri: Sounds terrible! His back was split right open!
Momoyo: I didn't need them, but there seems to be quick-recovery nurses for these types of things. He should be patched up at least.
Announcer: And now that Topaz is on stage we can call out our other competitor! Come out, Yukie Mayuzumi!
*A very dark green-haired curvy girl cautiously approaches the stage.*
Momoyo: C'mon Mayumayu! You can easily split this guy in two and take home the prize!
*Yukie bows towards Topaz. As she does so he spots the sword on her back.*
Yukie: I'm sorry I'm sorry!
Sorry for what?
Yukie: Oh.. Nothing.
Male Voice: She's just worried that if she destroys you too quickly you won't be her friend.
*Topaz looks around.*
Who was that?
Yukie: N-Nothing.... *picks up phone strap* Shhh, I told you to keep quiet, Matsukaze.
Matsukaze? Is that the name of your horse-shaped phone strap? How cute!
Yukie/Matsukaze: Hey, who you calling "cute"? I'll have you know that Yukie here will easily annihilate you!
Yukie: D-don't listen to him... I might be strong, but I'm nowhere near Momoyo's level...
Announcer: Er, are you two going to start fighting any time soon or...?
*Yukie turns to the announcer*
Yukie: I'm sorry, I'm sorry! It's all my fault. I got distracted and-
Announcer: Whatever, just get on with it!
That's no way to treat a girl like Yukie!
Yukie: E-eh? you're speaking to me with such familiarity and devotion? Wh-Wh-Why would you do that?
Yukie/Matsukaze: It's obvious what's happening. He wants to become your friend!
Yukie: That's such great news.
*Yukie puts on an intimidating smile/glare.*
Yukie: So you want to be come friends with me then, Topaz?
Announcer: Here we have Yukie's trademark death glare of friendship! There's been a few competitors that have ran off JUST from this!
Yukie: It's not working, Matsukaze!
You don't need to make such an effort, Yukie!
Yukie: E-ee-eeh?
Right, I'll be your friend! I just have a favor first.
Yukie: W-what? A favor? But I heard that being friends don't require things like that!
Yukie/Matsukaze: And don't forget, you're in public so nothin' perverted! Like fondling her butt or putting your- MMPH!
*Despite not being the one talking, Yukie still covers Matsukaze's mouth.*
Yukie: Do not say such vulgar things, Matsukaze. Remain honorable! But what's this task that you're asking of me, Topaz?
I just want to talk about you in my blog.
Yukie: A blog? Er, let me consult my adviser first... *talks to Matsukaze.* W-what should we do? He says that he wants to talk about us!
Yukie/Matsukaze: Don't worry, getting to know people is often the first step in becoming friends!
Yukie: That is a good point.
*Yukie turns back to Topaz and clears her throat.*
Yukie: My adviser has instructed me to allow you to continue.
That's great then! And, as you can tell...
As a note, unlike with Momoyo I was unable to read through the entirety of Yukie's route.
Yukie/Matsukaze: Wow! You suck at visual novels!
Head
Hair: Yukie does have really nice hair. At first glance it looks black, but it's actually a really dark shade of green. It's a bit more obvious in the game as I think the anime greys it slightly. Not that this is bad, I do really like the color. As for hair style, Yukie tends to keep it in a bob-cut looking style. Her hair isn't short though, it reaches her hips or so. Her style instead is mainly because she has twintails in back, spread outward so that they look good. She does have different hair styles, such as having it up in the bath or free in one of the CGs (it looks like she has surprisingly wavy hair). Of course, we can't forget the best part of her hair. Yukie has a near-flawless hime cut. The sides are a bit short, only going to her ear or so, but I do really like her hair style.
Grade: A
Eyes: Sadly Yukie's eyes don't suit me as well as her hair. They aren't BAD of course, it's just that she tends to have a tarame while I prefer tsurime curves. She CAN have a tsurime, such as when she's fighting or being intimidating, but as a whole she tends to have a more innocent look. Her eyes are a greenish-blue color, with the emphasis on blue. It could be nice if they had her eyes be green to match her hair color (though probably a bit lighter) so while I do like blue eyes I don't know if hers are all that great. They're nice, mind you, but not high-scoring. Also, as an added piece of trivia, when embarrassed she is the type to get dizzy-style effects in her eyes.
Grade: B-
Face: Yukie's face is nice and reserved, fitting her Yamato Nadeshiko-style personality. That doesn't mean she doesn't have amusing reactions though. One of the best is, when trying to make friends, she puts on a very intimidating smile. It's funny to see someone get this so wrong, and it's worse as she even has a cute smile when she DOESN'T try too hard! As far as facial design goes Yukie isn't too bad. She has a well-framed face with her lovely hime cut and a small nose.
Grade: B
Body
Build: Yukie has a really nice build. And, most importantly, MEASUREMENTS! One of the best things about doing girls from visual novels, and especially eroge, are that they usually have measurements. Yukie's sizes are that she's 167 cm tall and her three sizes are 88/56/87. Unfortunately Yamato, the lead guy, is 170 cm so she's barely shorter than he is. Other than that though, she does have a near perfect body. She could use 2 cm on her chest and 3 cm on her butt to be "ideal" but I still think she looks fantastic. Her legs are nice, especially her thick-looking thighs, and she's not too muscular (though she is quite strong).
However, there is ONE obvious spot on Yukie's body that deserves special attention. The spot that Yamato made special care to notice. The spot that Momoyo says that Yukie should eat plenty of good food to make grow. I'm talking about, of course, her BUTT. Yes, Yukie is one of the few girls who gets special attention to an otherwise ignored area. And HOW! The majority of official images of her show off her butt, in pool or beach scenes she's often shown facing away from the camera (while her butt is in full view), and even her basic image in the game shows that she has pretty nice hips! Overall she's a butt character done well, with in-series praise and lots of great scenes. Sadly this didn't translate that well to the anime but the manga isn't too bad (one cover has a GREAT image).
There are two problems with Yukie though. For one, Momoyo exists, and her 90-91/58/88 measurements narrowly put her ahead while her 173 height beats out the male lead. Both of these things make Momoyo have a better body, at least for me. The second problem is that, despite all the love and attention her rump attracts it is STILL smaller than her chest. For a bit of difference I wouldn't mind her butt being larger, especially if it was 90 cm to tie Momoyo's chest as that would break a certain barrier my reader knows.
Grade: A-
Breasts: Even though her butt is Yukie's attention-grabber she does have her full chest as well. As said before, it just barely beats her hip measurement by 1 cm and 88 is a good number. Not as good as 90 (though that's more Momoyo), but I mainly say that to make it a round number. She has about the second largest chest in the series as well. Her chest is also pretty perky and nice, and she even has small nipples when they're finally able to be shown. Yes, Majikoi had censorship in the broadcast version, and it was even the sticker-type of censorship that I really dislike. Humorously, even though it was censored there were a few frames of Yukie's chest shown by mistake.
There's also one other nice feature involving Yukie's chest, but that's more something for libido...
Yukie: Doki doki, Doki doki.
Grade: A
Clothes: Yukie is seen most often in the Kawakami Academy school uniform. It consists of a white shirt with long sleeves and blue trim, matching skirt, and a blue ribbon around her neck. The assumed-summer version is short sleeved and looks like there's a white vest or apron in front. It looks sort of like a tennis uniform too, in a way. Unfortunately her legs are bare, not even wearing thighhighs to clothe her upper legs.
Other outfits include a few bikinis in official art and a thong-like bottom though it's so low cut that it misses her crack. In the VN she wears a gym uniform with blue buruma (though sadly I'm not sure if we see a close up of her butt as a result), two one-piece swimsuits (one of which being a basic white version while the other is a sukumizu with a name tag), and cute if bland green-colored pajamas. She also has some nice casual outfits: one being a black tank-top over a blue shirt, a nice necklace, and jeans though they show off the shape of her hips while the other is a cleavage-showing green shirt, yellow vest-like article, and shorts. Finally, while cooking she often wears an apron and as a result she eventually wears NOTHING BUT!
Overall, somewhat plain but a few nice costumes.
Grade: B
Mind
Personality: Yukie has a great unique personality. She's shy with low self-esteem, but rather than just wallow in it she makes attempts to make friends. She even has a goal to gain 100 friends in high school. However, she is not very assertive and will back down from a challenge (though in a way that makes it seem like she'd lose, even if the opposite is apparent). The anime doesn't show it, and the manga follows Momoyo's route so I'll add my thoughts on the route itself (or what I've seen). Yukie's lack of assertiveness does make Kokoro take advantage of her (at least at first. though this is also due to Kokoro's own upbringing). Yukie also becomes friends with another girl that's not in the anime that likes baseball, it's really encouraging to see how Yukie slowly gets friends by working hard. Also then they go fight in a battle royale (Kokoro, Yamato, and Yukie) when they team up with Prime Minister Wakamoto. Yukie even made friends with him, not knowing who he was!
But the main reason that Yukie has such a social anxiety is that she was brought up in the ways of the sword and hasn't made many friends as a result. Her father is the resident Sword Saint, the strongest sword-user in the world. Or would be, if he didn't admit that Yukie was even stronger than he is. Yukie also carries around a sword from him, with permission of course, as she thinks the sword houses the soul. She's probably the most "samurai" of the Samurai Girls, so to speak. Yukie even defeats one of the Four Devas (admittingly the weakest one) and as a result holds her title of one of the four strongest women on the planet.
There's also the matter of her keychain Matsukaze. Matsukaze is a black horse cell phone strap which belongs to Yukie. He was made by her father due to Yukie's shy personality. She likes talking to him, going to him for advice and even using ventriloquism to have him answer back. She's GOOD at it, at least.
Yukie/Matsukaze: What you talkin' bout? I'm a spirit that inhabits well-loved objects!
Sure sure, whatever. Anyway, as you go through her route she eventually decides that she doesn't need him anymore. However, it's interesting to think that he's her inner voice as he's more crass than she is. It's probably a really good thing as many things that he says wouldn't fit her Yamato Nadeshiko-style personality. Speaking of which, she's a really good at domestic skills including cooking and cleaning. Her color is green (like her hair) and she values Respect most of all.
The final part of Yukie's personality I'll discuss is her voice. She actually has two different voices (three if you count the English dub. Let's not as I haven't heard it). In the anime she's voiced by Yuuko Gotou who isn't bad and the VN she's voiced by Shino Kujo. Either way she has a nice kind voice, somewhat sweet but not in a bad way. I like how both make Matsukaze sound different yet similar enough that you can tell they're done by the same person.
Grade: A-
Libido: Yukie is in an H-game and....
*Crowd cheers*
Yukie: Awwwwoooo....
No, for the sake of Yukie's privacy I'll keep the Colosseum audience from listening. She deserves their respect.
Grade: A-
Age: As a first year student in Kawakami Academy Yukie is most likely sixteen or seven-
Yukie: I'm "eighteen".
Like I said, she's prob- huh?
Yukie: "As explained in the tutorial, all the girls of Minatosoft games, including this one, are eighteen or above. Yes, that includes Monshiro Kuki, the loli-ish VN girl who skipped grades, is a first year student at a young age, and also calls her 17 year old brother "older". Minatosoft is a classy eroge creator that would not have sexual scenes with minors."
...That sounds like an obvious lie to get away with showing sex scenes. And the inconsistencies don't help! Did they tell you to say that?
*Yukie crumples up a piece of paper and tosses it behind her.*
Yukie: Nooo....
Well, either way that information is a positive for me. Even if it doesn't make sense. Also, before I forget, her birthday is October 26th.
Grade: A
Total Grades: 86
Average score: 9.6
Final Grade: A-
Wow! That's a great score, Yukie!
Yukie: T-Thank you? I'm not sure what I did to deserve such praise, but...
Yukie/Matsukaze: Nonsense, Mayucchi! You kicked major tushie!
That you did, and as a result you get an image!
Yukie/Matsukaze: Whoo-hee! That's one sexy girl!
Yukie: Matsukaze! Be proper!
Your horse is very correct, you're one sexy girl.
*Yukie flusters.*
Announcer: *sighs* Can we FINALLY get going on the whole battle thing?
Yukie: I-I'm sorry I'm sorry! *bows*
*Yukie unsheathes her sword.*
Yukie: There is nothing I cannot cut...
I'll like to see you try!
*Yukie charges at Topaz. He turns to avoid her blade but she quickly reverses it, slashing across Topaz's shoulder. He takes 35 damage.*
Momoyo: They don't call her the Sword Saint for nothing! I'd like to see how Topaz plans on getting out of this one...
*The battle continues, with Topaz making sure to avoid Yukie's blade. She's very fast though, so there are plenty of near misses. Finally, he uses his trump card and thinks of Morgiana...*
Yukie: I see you finally are taking this seriously...
Yukie/Matsukaze: 'Bout Time!
I just wanted to put on a good fight for the audience. But indeed, this is now serious...
*Topaz makes a running jump kick to Yukie, who catches him with her sword for 15 damage. However, in guarding Yukie made her sword vulnerable. As a result Topaz kicks it across the stadium. Yukie falls to her knees in shame.*
Yukie: M-my sword?
Yukie/Matsukaze: Curse you! You've disrespected Mayucchi's love of the sword by separating the two!
What I did was notice that you have many skills, but without a sword your power has decreased! My power, on the other hand...
*Topaz uses his amazing leg strength, borrowed from Morgiana, to hold down Yukie's back. She struggles, but her panty-clad butt shakes in upward.*
Oh, come on! It's like you're asking me to do THIS!
*Topaz lowers her panties and exposes Yukie's butt. Then he spanks her jiggly ass, and as a result she lets out a cute moan as her cheeks bounce.*
A moan...? Wait, are you enjoying being spanked?
Yukie: N-Nonsense! And certainly not because I'm perverted, have a sensitive butt, or because it's you Yamato-er, Topaz!
Well then, this sounds like a good way of any of defeating the great Sword Saint!
*Topaz continues to smack Yukie's pale bottom until it turns red from all the spanks.*
Yukie: Oh no, I'm defeated! Quick Topaz, kiss it to make me feel better!
*Yukie shoves her swollen butt against Topaz's face. He does kiss it, but that only causes a reaction from Matsukaze.*
Yukie/Matsukaze: OI! Earth to Mayucchi! You're in front of people here! You don't want to lose your Four Deva's title, now do you?
Yukie: My... Title..?
*Yukie looks around at all the people watching her. She screams out of embarrassment and pulls her panties up. After that she runs over to her sword and picks it up before escaping.*
Yukie: Noooo! This doesn't count! I'mmm soooorrrryyyy!
*The Colosseum watches in silence. After a moment, the Announcer steps up.*
Announcer: Well, as unlikely as it seems, I have to award Topaz as the victor of THIS match as well!
Yayyyyy!
*Crowd cheers.*
*Topaz heads back to the Colluseum waiting room to recover for his next match.*
==Meanwhile==
*In the official's room.*
Head: What? That MAN continues to beat the strongest female fighters? IMPOSSIBLE!
*The Head of the Tournament's monologue is interrupted by a loud clomping of heavy boots. She notices that sound as someone approaching and barely turns her eye to look.*
Head: I see you've back to pick up the pieces from the last tournament...
???: Cut the pleasantries, I want my teacher back!
Head: Heh. Is that any way to talk to me? You'll never get your sweet onion boya back at that rate.
???: FINE then! May I PLEASE have my teacher back before I ground your stupid head into the dirt?
Head: Still as feisty as ever... But you know the rules. Before you can challenge me, you have to beat the tournament. And, would you look at that? You're facing that dark horse Topaz in the next match. Show him a thing or two for me, and I'll CONSIDER giving your teacher back.
???: *deep sigh* FINE then, just be sure to keep your promise!
*The mysterious armored female leaves, while the Tournament Head remains in her throne.*
==Back at the stands==
???: Ahaha! I told you Yamato would win that match, Momoyo!
Momoyo: You're right, though I think you mean Topaz. Don't you, Miyako?
*A girl with light-blue hair sits next to Momoyo.*
Miyako: Of course I did.
Momoyo: By the way, where were you? I know MayuMayu and Wanko were in the competition and Christine had other business to take care of. What happened?
Miyako: Oh, you know. Trying to get Yamato to recognize his love for me. Same old Same old.
Momoyo: Wahahaha! Hows that going again?
*Miyako holds up a sign with a "10" on it.*
Miyako: Sadly he's still refusing, but a few more occasions of rubbing my butt on his face while he sleeps should do it...
Rika: Wait, are you sure you're not talking about Zettai?
Miyako: Oh, so you've meet Zettai as well?
Rika: Yeah, lets say that...
*Riri and Kimiko giggle as Rika blushes.*
Miyako: Interesting, kukukuku...
*Miyako's recognizable laughter makes the blonde loli in front of the assistant trio turn around.*
???: I-Is that you, White Sadist? It is, isn't it? Funny seeing you here.
Miyako: That's certainly true. It's coincidence that the two of us are sitting so close to each other. I wonder if the other three are here somewhere as well.
???: Certainly, it's nice to see a familiar face in this crowd of many.
Riri: Uh, excuse me... But doesn't that hurt your neck?
*If it wasn't obvious, the blonde loli is craning her neck to see the two rows behind her.*
???: No worries, I'll be fine. For one, I'm a vampire and as such a little thing like this wouldn't hurt. Secondly, my show IS made by SHAFT. At least the GOOD seasons...
Kimiko: And yet that still has a few characters it could describe...
???: Don't worry, you'll know who I am next week... Especially because Topaz seems to be going against MY disciple next...
==Continuing from last week==
Kimiko: ...Momoyo Kawakami!
*Momoyo nods to the meganekko.*
Momoyo: That's right! Oh, hey! Aren't you that one girl who was watching me fight Topaz a few years back?
Kimiko: That's me! And I'm glad that you remember me!
Momoyo: I never forget a cute girl!
Kimiko: *flusters* She called me cute!
*Rika sighs*
Rika: So who is this amazing fighter you've trained?
Momoyo: Mayumayu, of course!
Riri: Wait, that's an unusual name that I don't recall. Are you sure that you've got the right girl?
Momoyo: I never forget a face, and I mean my friend- SHHH!
*The cat-eared announcer walks up to the stage.*
Announcer: Good and bad news everyone! The bad news is that we seem to have misplaced our idol act!
*The whole place boos.*
Announcer: (to herself) I know, she still needs to repay me for that sundae I got her. (back to crowd) Now, we know that this is a problem so instead we're going to have even MORE fights!

Announcer: Here we have Yukie's trademark death glare of friendship! There's been a few competitors that have ran off JUST from this!
Yukie: It's not working, Matsukaze!
You don't need to make such an effort, Yukie!
Yukie: E-ee-eeh?
Right, I'll be your friend! I just have a favor first.
Yukie: W-what? A favor? But I heard that being friends don't require things like that!
Yukie/Matsukaze: And don't forget, you're in public so nothin' perverted! Like fondling her butt or putting your- MMPH!

Yukie: Do not say such vulgar things, Matsukaze. Remain honorable! But what's this task that you're asking of me, Topaz?
I just want to talk about you in my blog.
Yukie: A blog? Er, let me consult my adviser first... *talks to Matsukaze.* W-what should we do? He says that he wants to talk about us!
Yukie/Matsukaze: Don't worry, getting to know people is often the first step in becoming friends!
Yukie: That is a good point.
*Yukie turns back to Topaz and clears her throat.*
Yukie: My adviser has instructed me to allow you to continue.
That's great then! And, as you can tell...
As a note, unlike with Momoyo I was unable to read through the entirety of Yukie's route.
Yukie/Matsukaze: Wow! You suck at visual novels!

Hair: Yukie does have really nice hair. At first glance it looks black, but it's actually a really dark shade of green. It's a bit more obvious in the game as I think the anime greys it slightly. Not that this is bad, I do really like the color. As for hair style, Yukie tends to keep it in a bob-cut looking style. Her hair isn't short though, it reaches her hips or so.

Both of these things make Momoyo have a better body, at least for me. The second problem is that, despite all the love and attention her rump attracts it is STILL smaller than her chest. For a bit of difference I wouldn't mind her butt being larger, especially if it was 90 cm to tie Momoyo's chest as that would break a certain barrier my reader knows.
Grade: A-
Breasts: Even though her butt is Yukie's attention-grabber she does have her full chest as well. As said before, it just barely beats her hip measurement by 1 cm and 88 is a good number. Not as good as 90 (though that's more Momoyo), but I mainly say that to make it a round number. She has about the second largest chest in the series as well. Her chest is also pretty perky and nice, and she even has small nipples when they're finally able to be shown. Yes, Majikoi had censorship in the broadcast version, and it was even the sticker-type of censorship that I really dislike. Humorously, even though it was censored there were a few frames of Yukie's chest shown by mistake.
There's also one other nice feature involving Yukie's chest, but that's more something for libido...
Yukie: Doki doki, Doki doki.
Grade: A
Clothes: Yukie is seen most often in the Kawakami Academy school uniform. It consists of a white shirt with long sleeves and blue trim, matching skirt, and a blue ribbon around her neck. The assumed-summer version is short sleeved and looks like there's a white vest or apron in front. It looks sort of like a tennis uniform too, in a way. Unfortunately her legs are bare, not even wearing thighhighs to clothe her upper legs.
Other outfits include a few bikinis in official art and a thong-like bottom though it's so low cut that it misses her crack. In the VN she wears a gym uniform with blue buruma (though sadly I'm not sure if we see a close up of her butt as a result), two one-piece swimsuits (one of which being a basic white version while the other is a sukumizu with a name tag), and cute if bland green-colored pajamas. She also has some nice casual outfits: one being a black tank-top over a blue shirt, a nice necklace, and jeans though they show off the shape of her hips while the other is a cleavage-showing green shirt, yellow vest-like article, and shorts. Finally, while cooking she often wears an apron and as a result she eventually wears NOTHING BUT!
Overall, somewhat plain but a few nice costumes.
Grade: B
Mind
Personality: Yukie has a great unique personality. She's shy with low self-esteem, but rather than just wallow in it she makes attempts to make friends. She even has a goal to gain 100 friends in high school. However, she is not very assertive and will back down from a challenge (though in a way that makes it seem like she'd lose, even if the opposite is apparent). The anime doesn't show it, and the manga follows Momoyo's route so I'll add my thoughts on the route itself (or what I've seen). Yukie's lack of assertiveness does make Kokoro take advantage of her (at least at first. though this is also due to Kokoro's own upbringing). Yukie also becomes friends with another girl that's not in the anime that likes baseball, it's really encouraging to see how Yukie slowly gets friends by working hard. Also then they go fight in a battle royale (Kokoro, Yamato, and Yukie) when they team up with Prime Minister Wakamoto. Yukie even made friends with him, not knowing who he was!
But the main reason that Yukie has such a social anxiety is that she was brought up in the ways of the sword and hasn't made many friends as a result. Her father is the resident Sword Saint, the strongest sword-user in the world. Or would be, if he didn't admit that Yukie was even stronger than he is. Yukie also carries around a sword from him, with permission of course, as she thinks the sword houses the soul. She's probably the most "samurai" of the Samurai Girls, so to speak. Yukie even defeats one of the Four Devas (admittingly the weakest one) and as a result holds her title of one of the four strongest women on the planet.
There's also the matter of her keychain Matsukaze. Matsukaze is a black horse cell phone strap which belongs to Yukie. He was made by her father due to Yukie's shy personality. She likes talking to him, going to him for advice and even using ventriloquism to have him answer back. She's GOOD at it, at least.
Yukie/Matsukaze: What you talkin' bout? I'm a spirit that inhabits well-loved objects!
Sure sure, whatever. Anyway, as you go through her route she eventually decides that she doesn't need him anymore. However, it's interesting to think that he's her inner voice as he's more crass than she is. It's probably a really good thing as many things that he says wouldn't fit her Yamato Nadeshiko-style personality. Speaking of which, she's a really good at domestic skills including cooking and cleaning. Her color is green (like her hair) and she values Respect most of all.
The final part of Yukie's personality I'll discuss is her voice. She actually has two different voices (three if you count the English dub. Let's not as I haven't heard it). In the anime she's voiced by Yuuko Gotou who isn't bad and the VN she's voiced by Shino Kujo. Either way she has a nice kind voice, somewhat sweet but not in a bad way. I like how both make Matsukaze sound different yet similar enough that you can tell they're done by the same person.
Grade: A-
Libido: Yukie is in an H-game and....
*Crowd cheers*
Yukie: Awwwwoooo....
No, for the sake of Yukie's privacy I'll keep the Colosseum audience from listening. She deserves their respect.
Grade: A-
Age: As a first year student in Kawakami Academy Yukie is most likely sixteen or seven-
Yukie: I'm "eighteen".
Like I said, she's prob- huh?
Yukie: "As explained in the tutorial, all the girls of Minatosoft games, including this one, are eighteen or above. Yes, that includes Monshiro Kuki, the loli-ish VN girl who skipped grades, is a first year student at a young age, and also calls her 17 year old brother "older". Minatosoft is a classy eroge creator that would not have sexual scenes with minors."
...That sounds like an obvious lie to get away with showing sex scenes. And the inconsistencies don't help! Did they tell you to say that?
*Yukie crumples up a piece of paper and tosses it behind her.*
Yukie: Nooo....
Well, either way that information is a positive for me. Even if it doesn't make sense. Also, before I forget, her birthday is October 26th.
Grade: A
Total Grades: 86
Average score: 9.6
Final Grade: A-
Wow! That's a great score, Yukie!
Yukie: T-Thank you? I'm not sure what I did to deserve such praise, but...
Yukie/Matsukaze: Nonsense, Mayucchi! You kicked major tushie!
That you did, and as a result you get an image!
Yukie/Matsukaze: Whoo-hee! That's one sexy girl!
Yukie: Matsukaze! Be proper!
Your horse is very correct, you're one sexy girl.
*Yukie flusters.*
Announcer: *sighs* Can we FINALLY get going on the whole battle thing?
Yukie: I-I'm sorry I'm sorry! *bows*
*Yukie unsheathes her sword.*
Yukie: There is nothing I cannot cut...
I'll like to see you try!
*Yukie charges at Topaz. He turns to avoid her blade but she quickly reverses it, slashing across Topaz's shoulder. He takes 35 damage.*
Momoyo: They don't call her the Sword Saint for nothing! I'd like to see how Topaz plans on getting out of this one...
*The battle continues, with Topaz making sure to avoid Yukie's blade. She's very fast though, so there are plenty of near misses. Finally, he uses his trump card and thinks of Morgiana...*
Yukie: I see you finally are taking this seriously...
Yukie/Matsukaze: 'Bout Time!
I just wanted to put on a good fight for the audience. But indeed, this is now serious...
*Topaz makes a running jump kick to Yukie, who catches him with her sword for 15 damage. However, in guarding Yukie made her sword vulnerable. As a result Topaz kicks it across the stadium. Yukie falls to her knees in shame.*
Yukie: M-my sword?
Yukie/Matsukaze: Curse you! You've disrespected Mayucchi's love of the sword by separating the two!
What I did was notice that you have many skills, but without a sword your power has decreased! My power, on the other hand...
*Topaz uses his amazing leg strength, borrowed from Morgiana, to hold down Yukie's back. She struggles, but her panty-clad butt shakes in upward.*
Oh, come on! It's like you're asking me to do THIS!
*Topaz lowers her panties and exposes Yukie's butt. Then he spanks her jiggly ass, and as a result she lets out a cute moan as her cheeks bounce.*
A moan...? Wait, are you enjoying being spanked?
Yukie: N-Nonsense! And certainly not because I'm perverted, have a sensitive butt, or because it's you Yamato-er, Topaz!
Well then, this sounds like a good way of any of defeating the great Sword Saint!
*Topaz continues to smack Yukie's pale bottom until it turns red from all the spanks.*
Yukie: Oh no, I'm defeated! Quick Topaz, kiss it to make me feel better!
*Yukie shoves her swollen butt against Topaz's face. He does kiss it, but that only causes a reaction from Matsukaze.*
Yukie/Matsukaze: OI! Earth to Mayucchi! You're in front of people here! You don't want to lose your Four Deva's title, now do you?
Yukie: My... Title..?
*Yukie looks around at all the people watching her. She screams out of embarrassment and pulls her panties up. After that she runs over to her sword and picks it up before escaping.*
Yukie: Noooo! This doesn't count! I'mmm soooorrrryyyy!
*The Colosseum watches in silence. After a moment, the Announcer steps up.*
Announcer: Well, as unlikely as it seems, I have to award Topaz as the victor of THIS match as well!
Yayyyyy!
*Crowd cheers.*
*Topaz heads back to the Colluseum waiting room to recover for his next match.*
==Meanwhile==
*In the official's room.*
Head: What? That MAN continues to beat the strongest female fighters? IMPOSSIBLE!
*The Head of the Tournament's monologue is interrupted by a loud clomping of heavy boots. She notices that sound as someone approaching and barely turns her eye to look.*
Head: I see you've back to pick up the pieces from the last tournament...
???: Cut the pleasantries, I want my teacher back!
Head: Heh. Is that any way to talk to me? You'll never get your sweet onion boya back at that rate.
???: FINE then! May I PLEASE have my teacher back before I ground your stupid head into the dirt?
Head: Still as feisty as ever... But you know the rules. Before you can challenge me, you have to beat the tournament. And, would you look at that? You're facing that dark horse Topaz in the next match. Show him a thing or two for me, and I'll CONSIDER giving your teacher back.
???: *deep sigh* FINE then, just be sure to keep your promise!
*The mysterious armored female leaves, while the Tournament Head remains in her throne.*
==Back at the stands==
???: Ahaha! I told you Yamato would win that match, Momoyo!
Momoyo: You're right, though I think you mean Topaz. Don't you, Miyako?
*A girl with light-blue hair sits next to Momoyo.*
Miyako: Of course I did.
Momoyo: By the way, where were you? I know MayuMayu and Wanko were in the competition and Christine had other business to take care of. What happened?
Miyako: Oh, you know. Trying to get Yamato to recognize his love for me. Same old Same old.
Momoyo: Wahahaha! Hows that going again?
*Miyako holds up a sign with a "10" on it.*
Miyako: Sadly he's still refusing, but a few more occasions of rubbing my butt on his face while he sleeps should do it...
Rika: Wait, are you sure you're not talking about Zettai?
Miyako: Oh, so you've meet Zettai as well?
Rika: Yeah, lets say that...
*Riri and Kimiko giggle as Rika blushes.*
Miyako: Interesting, kukukuku...
*Miyako's recognizable laughter makes the blonde loli in front of the assistant trio turn around.*
???: I-Is that you, White Sadist? It is, isn't it? Funny seeing you here.
Miyako: That's certainly true. It's coincidence that the two of us are sitting so close to each other. I wonder if the other three are here somewhere as well.
???: Certainly, it's nice to see a familiar face in this crowd of many.
Riri: Uh, excuse me... But doesn't that hurt your neck?
*If it wasn't obvious, the blonde loli is craning her neck to see the two rows behind her.*
???: No worries, I'll be fine. For one, I'm a vampire and as such a little thing like this wouldn't hurt. Secondly, my show IS made by SHAFT. At least the GOOD seasons...
Kimiko: And yet that still has a few characters it could describe...
???: Don't worry, you'll know who I am next week... Especially because Topaz seems to be going against MY disciple next...
