Yuugiri (Zombieland Saga)

Yuugiri, also known as Zombie 5, Number 5, Big Sis, Yugirin, Itsuko Tatsumi and The Legendary Courtesan, is one of the main characters from the Zombieland Saga series.
== Charactah Account ==
A legendary courtesan who saw the birth of the Meiji Restoration in the mid-19th century. Despite living in an entirely different time period, she chooses not to let it faze her and welcomes every chance to learn something new.
Yuugiri remains very calm and traditional in various situations, probably due to the period in which she lived and in which she worked. Despite this, she seems to calmly accept and adapt to the changes in modern Japanese society. Yugiri struggles to remain calm in the face of her resurrection, so as not to be overwhelmed by a world a century ahead of her.
In reality, Yuugiri has never been seen to have any questions or ask another of the girls about something, since it seems that she is capable of learning very quickly or is simply one of the people who have no doubts when doing something, despite this characteristic she still looks collaborative with the group doing everything that is said without asking.

== Trivia ==
* Since her design feels like a combination of things that come out of the word "Oiran," it was necessary to consider the times. They wanted to affirm that Yuugiri, alone, could be placed in the protagonist's position, an idol with a strong personality.
* As revealed by Koutaro Tatsumi in the first episode, specifically the line, "The Legendary Courtesan known only as Yuugiri," that "Yuugiri" is simply an alias she goes by and is not her actual name.
** Yuugiri does not seem to know her real name, the courtesans used names based on Genji Monogatari/Genji's quantum to prevent their real names from being discovered.
* Yuugiri died one month after her nineteenth birthday.
* Chronologically, Yuugiri is the oldest in Franchouchou.
* Yuugiri is second to sports the curviest figure in the group. Beating even Sakura Minamoto and Tae Yamada by three sizes, she was only beaten by Maimai Yuzuriha.
* The railway bridge in the Saga Jinen MV was built next to a statue of Jofuku in honor of his arrival in Morodomi town and a cycling route also called Jofuku passes through there.
* Yuugiri uses a dialect used in the pleasure district of Kyoto (Shimabara), and Tokyo (Yoshiwara), expressions such as "arinsu" are part of the latter's Kuruwa-kotoba.
** "Arinsu" is a corruption of "arimasu," which is a formal way of saying "~ da" in Japanese (both in pre-modern and modern times), so it is not a difficult dialect to emulate.
** In "Episode 14", the bar she works at, Chinatsu, is recalled as "Arinsu." Instead of being a bar, it is referred to as a restaurant. It is currently unknown if this is an error or an intentional change.
** It is confirmed in this same episode that Yuugiri's place of origin is Kyoto, Japan, in the red light district of Yoshiwara.
* In Yuugiri's time, she visited the wolves of Mibu and the Sonno Joi as part of her work.
** However, in the historical background, both groups had opposite ideals and were in an internal war for control of Japan.
* As of "Episode 13", Yuugiri works part-time as a bartender at a bar named Chinatsu.
** Interestingly enough, this may be a nod to how she has connections with the bartender.
* Yuugiri stands out in her agility to play the Shamisen, as well as in being a "company" lady, the latter due to the time she was working, she would be a "prostitute", but no further history is maintained.
* On April 23, 2021, the series' Twitter account announced that Yuugiri would be a VTuber, having her streams at the Chinatsu bar. The stream can be found here on the Official Cygames YouTube Channel.
* Yuugiri has two episodes centered around her so far: "Episode 20" and "Episode 21".
** Additionally, it is revealed in “Episode 20” that the small red comb with the floral pattern that she uses throughout the series is gifted to her by Kiichi Momozaki.
** The group picture of her, Kiichi, and Ito can be seen on one of the shelves in Jofuku bar, as shown in “Episode 21”.
* Yuugiri has connections to Saga statesmen, including Soejima Taneomi, Okuma Shigenobu, and Oki Takato.
** In 9:50 of Episode 21, Yuugiri can be seen sending mails to Soejima Taneomi, Okuma Shigenobu, and Oki Takato.
* Yuugiri's blood type appears as "unknown" since blood tests were not a thing until the mid-1900s.
