Yukari Yakumo

Yukari Yakumo (八雲 紫, Yakumo Yukari) is a core ally in Gold Experience.

Yukari is associated with the Yasaka crime syndicate, a major Japanese organized crime ring. She leads her own gang, and is the first to lend meaningful support to protagonist, Hatate Himekaidou.

Appearance
Yukari appears as a mid-sized woman with a slim build. She has long blonde hair and brown eyes. She wears a purple Chinese-style tabard with various trigrams over a pale pink Western-style dress and wears her hair coiled up into her mob cap. Her appearance seems to have stayed consistent since childhood with no particular differences outside her height and clothing.

Personality
Yukari is first introduced as a sly gangster, but is quickly revealed to be a righteous, but ruthless individual.

During her introductory chapter, Yukari acts like a seemingly affable gangster toward Hatate, starting a chitchat on various subjects during which Yukari reveals her more violent side. This behavior is later shown to be an act she puts up with unfamiliar people outside of her circle of friends, and she would later conduct himself in the same manner with two airport security guards.

Yukari's most important character traits are her righteousness and her natural kindness. She is dedicated to take the most honorable course of action, even if he puts his life at risk.

Yukari respects and upholds several values such as determination, commending Hatate's determination in their fight, selflessness as she is prepared to sacrifice herself for her beliefs and duties, and family loyalty, being outraged that Kanako would dare hurt her own child. Yukari particularly despises the drug trade, which caused her father's death and is hurting the population on a large scale. Because of hre allegiance to the Yasaka crime syndicate which is selling drugs in the street, Yukari is conflicted between her code and her duty as a lieutnant. Hatate notes that Yukari was at odds with herself when she used Civil War to hide inside the body of a teenager who was addicted to drugs. Due to this, she decided to quietly support Hatate's infiltration of the gang while still working for the organization. Shown to be against Rika joining the gang, telling her to live a normal life, Yukari doesn't hold the gangster life in high regard.

Abilities
Yukari's Standmaku is Civil War; which in addition to good melee defense and attack enables her to create 'gaps' on any object and surface, which she can open and close together at her leisure. This power allows her to control the boundaries "between any and all things". By manipulating borders in space and creating a chasm, she is able to link together separate places. For example she can use this from simple things as creating an entry between a solid brick wall, to even hiding inside the cavity of someone's body seemingly without harming them, as the space inside of the 'gaps' she creates are in another dimension altogether.
