Uzume

Uzume is a Sekirei originally living at Izumo Inn when Minato and Musubi first arrived. Uzume's Ashikabi is a young girl named Chiho, who is confined to a hospital due to an incurable viral infection. She had her first appearance when Minato and Musubi accidentally fell down into the back garden of Izumo Inn. Uzume had a large collection of costumes at the Inn, which she used to wear to entertain Chiho. Higa Izumi, who was holding Chiho hostage, manipulated Uzume into an uneasy alliance, having her use her powers to eliminate other Sekirei from the Sekirei Plan, and rob them of Jinki. While in her later days at the Inn, she develops a friendly rivalry with Kazehana, who Uzume refers to as 'Nee-san'. Near the end of the Second Stage, Uzume leaves Izumo Inn, realizing she can no longer align herself with Minato's party, out of obligation to her role and her guilt over it. Some time later she is terminated in front of her old home shortly after hearing that Chiho is safe. Uzume is a well-endowed young woman with long, dark brown hair, brown eyes and a well developed body figure. She is usually wearing a pink/violet belly top with a golden star on the front and a golden "10" on the back. For the lower part she prefers capri jeans. When battling she is wearing pure white silk, covering only the most necessary parts of her, the limbs and a long white veil which surrounds her body. Uzume is a cheerful and easygoing woman, enjoying the company of Minato's party in Izumo Inn. She loves to tease Minato, and to dress up Kusano and Musubi with costumes from her collection, later permitting Kazehana to do the same after their fast-emerging friendship. She can also be flirty with individuals outside of her Ashikabi, although this is a casual facade, often utilized in her teasing of Minato. Contrary to this, when she is forced to fight, she shows no mercy even though she is fundamentally opposed to what she is doing, being willing to terminate Sekirei, harm Ashikabi, and sever another's equivalent of what she has with Chiho. She loves her Ashikabi dearly and does anything to make her smile and to ensure her safety, even to the point that she became a pawn for Higa Izumi, and committed the actions alluded to. Nevertheless, she shows her disgust, frustration, turmoil, and remorse towards these actions and her situation openly. Uzume is loyal to her friends despite her unfortunate circumstances, to the point of laying down her life and risking her future with Chiho. She also willingly severed all ties to MBI and the associated benefits, when she helped Matsu to temporarily escape the company's grasp after she stole a Jinki.
