**Relationships**

As the protagonist of the comic, Muko meets many characters across the series. The more she grows as a Combagal, the better relationships she forms as she grows as a person.

## Family

Muko's family is dysfunctional. Her sister is smothering, her father is depressed, and her mother's whereabouts are unknown. It is implied that Muko's family was more functional back when she was a child, as she remembers happily eating pancakes, even making them (or other foods that taste like it) her comfort food.

### Bill Bunburger

Not much is known about Muko's relationship with her father. However, the two appear to be estranged. Muko never mentions Bill in most chapters, and Bill doesn't seem to know or care about Muko leaving home to become a Combagal because of his depression.

### Mother

Not much is known about Muko's mother, but it is implied that Muko loved her a lot. She feels bad about dishonoring her memory, as seen when she felt guilty about being a bad worker at Cafe Carrots when Manugo reminded Muko that she was hired for so long in honor of her mother. Muko actually cried for her mother during the Masato Match while Nyarai was beating her up, implying that she was her as a source of comfort and safety. During a discussion with Saniko, she coldly called her out for acting like her mother, resenting her older sister for imitating their mother.

### Saniko Bunburger

Saniko is Muko's older sister and main caretaker during the first two parts of the story. Muko loves her older sister, but the two have different opinions about Muko's life. Saniko would rather have Muko learn responsibility by getting a job while Muko wants Saniko to support her endeavors.

After Muko becomes a Combagal and gets beat up fighting Kalita, the two sisters have an argument regarding Muko's habit of chasing dreams and giving up at the first defeat. Muko, annoyed at Saniko for her lack of faith, coldly tells her to stop pretending to be their mother.

Following the Masato Match, Saniko tries to cheer up Muko by bringing in Cookie. Much to Saniko's disapproval, Muko decided to become a Combagal again, which worried her because she didn't want Muko to get injured like Adelgund. During the argument that follows, Muko calls out Saniko for smothering her and never believing in her. Realizing that Muko is serious about her passion for furry fighting, Saniko allows Muko to follow her dream, in exchange for moving out and learning to be an adult.

## Friends

Muko's perverted antics tend to draw people away. However, her enthusiasm and desire to give her best endear her to others.

### Mellow

Muko met Mellow when she was shopping at a convenience store. Mellow fell in love with her on first sight, but he never left a lasting impression on Muko. Eventually, he got the courage to invite Muko to a furry fighting match featuring Fenny and Roora. The dog explained Muko how a furry fighting match developed as they saw the two Combagals fight. By the end of the night, Mellow bought Muko a lot of souvenirs, while Muko gave Mellow her phone number.

After the incident at Cafe Carrots, Mellow called Muko upon learning of her fight with Kalita. He tried to warn her about Cookie's reputation, but she hung up on him in favor of talking with Saniko. He then attended the Masato Match with Harry to bring Muko support, making her recover her confidence at the beginning of the match. Mellow reacts with horror at Muko getting beat up by Nyarai.

Following the Masato Match, Mellow was surprised to see an article about Muko returning to furry fighting, reacting with concern about it.

### Ida Huggler

Muko first met Ida when Cookie took her to the hedgehog's studio to take some gravure pictures with Kalita. Muko and Kalita developed a quick friendship with Ida because they appreciated her fashion sense. The hedgehog personally approved Muko choosing to wear a luchador mask during the stay, and was disapproving when Cookie guilt tripped Muko into not buying it. Ida also showed a video of the Tendonchi Challenges Recap Show to help Muko and Kalita with the Tendonchi Challenges.

After Muko became a Heel, it is implied that Ida made a luchador outfit that matched the mask Muko wore on her Heel debut. The following day, Ida went with Muko to the L'Asagne Farm to find training equipment for Team Starkiller. Ida reacted with concern at Muko having a headache, offering her an aspirine in response.

Ida later helped Muko by convincing Zebreastian to let them put the Fortune Factory Ring on top of Monyan. She was also amused and impressed by Muko's training, showing her support for the bunny.

## Cafe Carrots

Muko initially worked at Monyan prior to becoming a Combagal. Her relationships there were very negative because of her perverted antics and poor work ethic. Most of the staff hates her, with only Shira having a positive opinion of Muko following the fight with the Roda Kira Gang.

### Manugo

Manugo was Muko's boss at Cafe Carrots. He hired her as a favor to her mother, but he quickly grew to regret his choice because of Muko's poor work ethic. He didn't care about Muko quitting Cafe Carrots, gladly kicking her out when she quitted. He grew frustrated when he found out that the replacement maid that Cookie brought to him the following day was Muko herself.

During the bet, Manugo felt delight at taunting Muko for her performance. He also made sure to call her out on her poor work ethic, reminding her that he only allowed her to stay working because of her mother. After Muko's fight with the Roda Kira Gang, Manugo angrily demanded Muko and Cookie to pay for the damages created by their fight.

### Shira

Shira was one of the three maids who worked with Muko. She resented Muko because Muko tried to steal her panties in the past. Because she was happy that Muko left and angry that she was keeping the tips if she won the bed, Shira and Mel did anything in their power to win the bet. Shira even tried to prevent Muko from getting any customers.

During the shakedown with the Roda Kira Gang, Shira was the only member of the maids who showed sympathy to Muko, even crying when Muko was brutally beat up by Kalita. When Kalita left, Shira tried to give Muko the money of the bet, believing it was a reward for Muko's efforts.

Shira later attended the Masato Match to support Muko. She reacted with horror when Nyarai was tormenting Muko following her betrayal. Shira was later interviewed by Miho regarding Muko's time at Cafe Carrots. The skunk remained silent, looking guilty while Mel and Tunky badmouthed Muko for her perverted antics.

### Mel

Mel was one of the maids working who worked with Muko. She resented Muko because Muko tried to steal her panties in the past. Because she was happy that Muko left and angry that she was keeping the tips if she won the bed, Shira and Mel did anything in their power to win the bet. Shira even tried to prevent Muko from getting any customers.

During the shakedown with the Roda Kira Gang, Shira was the only member of the maids who showed sympathy to Muko, even crying when Muko was brutally beat up by Kalita. When Kalita left, Shira tried to give Muko the money of the bet, believing it was a reward for Muko's efforts.

Shira later attended the Masato Match to support Muko. She reacted with horror when Nyarai was tormenting Muko following her betrayal. Shira was later interviewed by Miho regarding Muko's time at Cafe Carrots. The skunk remained silent, looking guilty while Mel and Tunky badmouthed Muko for her perverted antics.

### Tunky

Tunky was one of the maids working who worked with Muko. She resented Muko because of Muko's perverted antics and poor work ethic. While she didn't participate in the bet, she took delight at her friends easily beating Muko, and she was horrified when she noticed Muko getting advantage over them after some advice from Cookie.

During the shakedown with the Roda Kira Gang, Tunky was more scared of the violence she witnessed than Muko's safety. When Kalita left, Tunky didn't hesitate in badmouthing Muko, as she and Mel noticed that she did more harm than good and that Muko didn't land a single hit on Kalita. The two of them immediately protested when Shira tried to pay Cookie for Muko's contribution in defending Cafe Carrots.

Tunky was later interviewed by Miho regarding Muko's time at Cafe Carrots. At the interview, Mel and Tunky badmouthed Muko for her perverted antics, omitting the fact that she fought to defend them from the Roda Kira Gang.

## Champubator Agency

The Champubator Agency is Muko's furry fighting agency. Initially chosen because it promised a debut fight in a week, Muko gets to become a better person as she spends more time with Cookie and befriends Kalita.

### Cookie L'Asagne

Cookie is Muko's manager and mother figure. Though the two formed a partnership based on convenience, Muko and Cookie treated each other with kindness. Muko obeyed Cookie's orders of working at Cafe Carrots, and was thankful at learning how to make a persona because it allowed her to surpass her anxiety around male customers. For her part, Cookie developed a respect for Muko upon seeing how hard she fought against Kalita despite losing badly.

Later that day, Cookie scolded Muko for being reckless, lecturing her about unnecessary injuries and the use of painkillers. She then told Muko how she originally wanted to be a Combagal, but failed because of her small body. As a result, she decided to be a manager to help aspiring Combagals achieve their dreams, which moved Muko to tears.

At the Masato Match, Muko was more upset about Nyarai's betrayal because of how impacted Cookie rather than her. She learns about Cookie destroying Freydar's dream from the cheetah as she is pummeled by her. After the Masato Match, Cookie explains how shew ended Freydar's career. Though relieved at Cookie not being a murderer, she is still disappointed at her manager lying to her.

The two of them made up three days later, as Cookie explains to Muko how she surpassed despair, giving Muko the confidence to become a Combagal again. Since the Masato Match, Muko is very protective of Cookie, defending her from Kalita and getting angry when someone upsets her. For her part, Cookie tries to be a better manager to Muko by training her and being a supporting maternal figure to her.

### Kalita

Kalita is Muko's partner following Nyarai's betrayal and Adelgund's injury. Muko initially met Kalita at Cafe Carrots, developing a crush on her. She fought Kalita to prevent the vixen from stealing the money of the store. However, Muko treated the fight like a game, preferring to grope Kalita throughout the entire fight. This enraged the vixen, who beat Muko unconscious. However, Kalita developed a respect for Muko for fighting her to the bitter end despite the gap of skill and for wanting to pursue her dream of being a Combagal.

The two girls met each other again in Monyan about a week later. Kalita worked as a loan shark, demanding Cookie to pay the money she owed. Muko tried to pay the vixen, but she later ended up fighting her to defend Cookie. Despite Muko's increased skill, Kalita still proved to be more than a match for the bunny, overpowering her three times in a row during their rematch.

When Cookie voiced her desire to make Kalita her new partner, Muko was ecstatic to have the attractive vixen as her partner. However, she grew desperate and disappointed when Kalita refused. Muko then challenged Kalita to another fight one week later, as she was angry when Kalita called her weak and unworthy of being her partner.

Eventually, Kalita agreed to become Muko's partner, causing their relationship to be more friendlier. Muko is shown to respect Kalita's boundaries, and Kalita doesn't seem to mind Muko being that close to her, even letting Muko hug her in celebration to their debut match being a success.

### Daikarin

Daikarin is Muko's trainer. Muko seems to respect Daikarin, not minding the fact that she was transexual during their interactions. Muko gets along with her training, obeying Daikarin's orders without hesitation.

## Cyclone Crushers

Because of Cookie's past with them, the Cyclone Crushers seem to have an antagonistic attitude towards Muko at worst that can also veer in indifference because of Muko's lack of experience.

### Shun Gonfano

Shun Gonfano is mainly indifferent to Muko. However, as the only Combagal willing to support Cookie despite her past, Shun sees her as an obstacle that needs to be destroyed. He didn't hesitate in insulting her at the Masato Match, saying that she was an amateur and a pervert who disgraced the sport of furry fighting with her antics. He also got the Spotter to get negative information on Muko's past to turn the crowd against her.

### Nyarai

Nyarai was Muko's original partner at Champubator Agency. The cheetah developed an immediate dislike for Muko because of her lack of personal space and perverted behavior. Muko, for her part, considered Nyarai to be a friend due to them being tag team partners. The two of them formed Team Deliverance after they finally met.

At the Masato Match, Nyarai refused to tag Muko during her fight with Adelgund, wanting to make the bunny suffer as much as possible. She only tagged in when Peki entered the ring. Nyarai immediately betrayed Team Deliverance, forming Team Firestorm with Peki to defeat Muko and Adelgund.

Upon figuring out Nyarai's betrayal, Muko tries to appeal to her friendship with Nyarai. However, Nyarai reminds her that they weren't friends in the first place and that Muko doesn't know anything about furry fighting, calling her out for believing that it was a sexy game. Nyarai rubs her betrayal on Muko and Cookie's faces, making Muko cry for ruining Cookie's dreams. Nyarai then informs Muko about Freydar before torturing Muko, making her cry a lot before Adelgund saves her in. Muko's trauma increases when she sees Nyarai defeating Adelgund, breaking her jaw with a solid kick.

Three days after the Masato Match, Muko decides to make Nyarai her first rival, seeing her as the first cornerstone to become a true Combagal.

### Freydar

Cookie's former champion, Muko develops a fear of her upon seeing her at the Tendonchi Challenges Recap Show. She's scared at Freydar's actions, even pointing out that she worked out so much that her boobs shrank.

## Combagals

As a fan of furry fighting for years, Muko has extreme attraction and love towards Combagals. While this attraction initially started because of her lust, Muko's debut made her appreciate the Combagals as athletes, and she's currently striving to be more like them.

### Fenny

Fenny was a Combagal that Muko admired upon seeing her first furry match. She personally entered the shower rooms to talk with Fenny about how to become a Combagal. Despite their first meeting, Fenny gladly gave Muko advice on how to become a Combagal, not minding the fact that she was naked. Later on, Muko bought a body pillow of Fenny, treating it as one of her most precious belongings.

### Roora

Roora is a Combagal that Muko admires upon seeing her first furry fighting match. The kangaroo developed an immediate dislike towards Muko, kicking her in the face for intruding into the shower rooms to talk to her and Fenny. Roora punished Muko by kicking her on the head, leaving her with a bump that Muko considered an autograph.

Thought Muko didn't mind the kick, Roora still resented Muko for her perverted antics. When interviewed by Miho, Roora angrily recalled how Muko barged into the shower rooms to see her naked, painting her as a pervert and damaging her reputation.

### Adelgund

Adelgund was Muko's first opponent in furry fighting and her replacement partner after Nyarai's betrayal. Muko was chagrined upon finding out that Adelgund was her opponent, believing that Combagals should be beautiful women. For her part, Adelgund develops a small crush on Muko and a sense of kinship because of the Spotter article she read about Muko's fight at Cafe Carrots.

At the Masato Match, Adelgund faces Muko first, scaring the bunny with her flirting and superior fighting skills. After Nyarai and Peki betray them, Adelgund recruits Muko into Team Executor. She reacts with anger when she sees Nyarai tormenting Muko, tagging in as she congratulates Muko on her spirit. She then defeats Nyarai in a single blow and fights Peki in a brutal fight.

Though shocked at Adelgund breaking Peki's arm, Muko still wants to tag Adelgund out of the ring when Nyarai starts to overwhelm her. Upon hearing Muko defend her despite performing a Heel Turn, Adelgund decides to sacrifice herself rather than let Muko be destroyed by Nyarai. She tells Muko to use her defeat as a turning point to become a true Combagal.

While Muko never met Adelgund again so far, she still cares about her. She felt guilty at Adelgund's defeat and wants to honor her memory. Muko actually refused to buy a masked luchador mask despite wanting it because it will dishonor Adelgund's sacrifice, who wanted her to remain a Face Combagal.

### Snuggly

Muko admired Snuggly long before she became a Combagal, as she had posters of Snuggly in her room. During her Heel debut, Muko personally groped Snuggly as part of her persona. As it turns out, Snuggly agreed to lose to allow Muko and Kalita to gain some Heat in their first appearance. In exchange, Team Starkiller was going to fight the Redoable Dolls in the future for the Tendonchi Championship six months later.

## Love Interests

Thought Muko is very perverted, she also has a romantic side. Deep down, she wants a romantic relationship with someone. Sadly, her attempts for romance have ended up in failures or in relationships with poor endings.

### Matroshka

Matroshka was Muko's high school teacher and her first love. Despite being married, Matroshka engaged in a relationship with Muko during her senior year. The two of them were discovered, leading to Muko quitting high school and Matroshka getting fired and banned from teaching.

Eighteen months later, Muko was heartbroken when Matroshka participated in an interview that painted Muko as a sexual predator by saying that Muko manipulated her into a relationship. Though Cookie offered Muko the side to give up her story, Muko refused, as she didn't want to see her first love and teacher after that Spotter interview.
