Yuki Kusakabe

Yuki Kisakabe is a deuteragonist in Demi-chan Wa Kataritai.

She is a Yuki Onna (Snow Woman) by nature, resulting in her ability to lower the ambient temperature, which is most apparent when she is experiencing strong negative emotions.

Despite the rather unpleasant folklore attached to her species, she is not malevolent in any shape or form. In fact, she is constantly worried if her physiology may hurt others, with little to no ability to directly control it. In reality however, the extent of her "powers" is limited to an ability to solidify her own tears and sweat, and creating a small localized area with slightly below average temperature, posing no danger to those around her.

She holds a likening for Tetsuo as he demonstrates genuine concern for her and helps her in realizing her genuinely harmless nature, something that had been the source of a socially-crippling fear of hers; that she might flash-freeze and kill anyone she became emotionally attached to, as per the legends of her kind.

Hikari becomes interested into her due to her skin being cold (the vampire naturally finds high levels of heat to be uncomfortable), and often clings to her. She also seems to want to bite Yuki's neck, which Tetsuo suggests to possibly be a sexual desire, or a form of it. Yuki tries to avoid her at first, but after realizing her demi-traits are harmless, she is okay with it, even letting Hikari nibble her shoulder through her clothes.

Timid, shy, kind, and loving, with a quiet taste for the crude and silly, Yuki gets along very well with any that open up to her.
