== Charactah Account ==
Although she appears to be a normal, cute, human girl in Chinese-style clothing, she actually belongs to the Yato Clan, one of the strongest and most bloodthirsty of the Amanto races. The Yato people are said to have "transparent" skin that is highly sensitive to sunlight, so Kagura carries a purple parasol at all times. The parasol is also the Yato clan's weapon of choice; Kagura's is bulletproof and fires bullets from its tip. Because of her Yato blood, she is super-strong and can stop a speeding motor-scooter with one hand. Although stronger than most humans, she cannot control her strength perfectly. Her super-human strength makes her extremely bad with pets. Most of her pets, with the exception of Sadaharu, have met with an untimely demise by her hands.
She is also extremely flexible and fast; capable of catching multiple speeding bullets between her teeth and fingers. During battle, she's often seen flipping through the air and performing various acrobatic feats. Due to her Yato blood, she is capable of rapid regeneration. During the Benizakura arc, she is seen healing from a gunshot wound almost overnight.
Kagura also has an unusually strong appetite. She is able to consume large quantities of food within a matter of seconds. Nevertheless, her tastes are endearingly plain. Sukonbu, rice, and eggs are among her favorite foods.

* She is the first Shonen Jump heroine to vomit and pick her nose.
* Otae is the only woman Kagura is afraid of and respects the most.
* She is the one who gave Tsukuyo the nickname "Tsukky".
* Tsukuyo, Nobume, and Kagura called themselves 'Keisei' during the Ikokku Keisei arc, which means 'castle destroyer' based on their intentions to destroy the castle. Keisei may also mean a prostitute/courtesan.
* Her Gender Bender form is based on the historical warrior Xiahou Dun from the Three Kingdoms Era of Chinese history. She even called herself Kagura Dun in her male form.
* Her favorite snack is sukonbu.
* In Episode 10 she had a pet rabbit that was sleeping with her. Kagura had a nightmare and squeezed it so hard that it died.
* In The Movie: Be Forever Yorozuya, Kagura became a tsundere.
* Kagura has the same voice actress as Happy from Fairy Tail, Nagi Sanzenin from Hayate no Gotoku, Karin Kurosaki from Bleach, Shana from Shakugan no Shana, Taiga Aisaka from Toradora!, Suzuya Juuzou from Tokyo Ghoul, Sukuna Gojou from K Return of Kings, Monica Adenauer from Yakitate!! Japan, Murumo from Mirumo de Pon!, Louise Françoise from Zero no Tsukaima, Marta Lualdi from Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, and Laphicet Crowe from Tales of Berseria.

* In Tales of the Rays, Kagura appears as a playable character in the collaboration event with Gin Tama. While she does gain an original arteset, her mirrage arte, Satsugeki Bukkorogasuken, is a parody of Final Fury.
** In the same collaboration event, Edna from Tales of Berseria gains the mirrage arte Venerate Ours, which both grants Edna a costume of Kagura, as both characters are strong girls who use umbrellas, and is a direct parody of her mystic arte Terra Mine.
* At the end of Volume 72, Sorachi reveals that Kagura has the largest boobies of all the female characters
