She fixes the problems with her Kazama-style of martial arts which makes people listen to her and get along. Asuka is witty and even mischievous who at times has shown to be aggressive and also has a competitive streak.
Asuka is a feisty, fiery, spirited, spunky, upbeat, lively and energetic young girl. She is a thrill-seeking girl who enjoys adventure and really loves to fight. Although she fights to bring peace to her hometown Asuka takes pleasure in fighting and kicking a bully's butt. Because Asuka is nosey she always gets involved in another person's problem even if it doesn't involve her. But this nosey nature comes from her wanting to help people. While Asuka is passionate about fighting, ambitious and determined, she is stubborn, hard headed, impulsive and hot blooded as well.

While Asuka is not a girl who starts trouble she ends trouble despite that nature she has her headstrong, hot-temper that makes her believe if you punch something that fixes everything. Asuka is an action type of girl who can be very cheeky sometimes and overbearing. She is a loud girl who does not like to see people get pushed around so she decides to push the bullies around.

But despite all of those negatives Emilie does have good qualities to her and can occasionally be nice, sweet and kind sometimes but Asuka does not see those good qualities in her. While Asuka is a happy girl who finds away to reason with angry people after beating them up and forcing them to listen to her.
