Aoi is a childhood friend of Akira Yuki and an Aiki Ju-Jutsu master. She was inspired by him to join the third World Fighting Tournament, to prove her her fighting ability. After she loses in the first round, she trains in Aikido, Kobujutsu and other martial arts in preparation for the fourth tournament.
Aoi is a practitioner of Aiki-jūjutsu. Returning home, she tried hard not only to learn Aikido and Kobujutsu, but to also improve her knowledge in other martial arts. Her study has allowed her to more effectively counterattack and parry, as well as increase her repertoire.
Aoi has a few defensive moves where she spins and twirls in order to dodge or counteracttack the opponent. She also performs Japanese fan dancing in one opening of 3.
