**Shiranui Mizuki** (水城 不知火, *Mizuki Shiranui*?) is one of the main characters of the film *Samurai Dragon Amatsu and the Lady in the Water* and a supporting character of some of its sequels. She is the lover/wife of the samurai Yukimura Katsuki and the mother of the Taimanin Yukikaze Mizuki. She disappeared during a mission but however, it was revealed that she was abducted by Ryuuji Kuroi's faction, the Sindicate of Moonless Night and trained and altered so much for years that she eventually and willingly thrown away her past life as a Taimanin and betrayed those close to her, including her family, to stay by his side.

Her most active role would be as one of the main villains in the movie *Tatsura and Wataru: Celestial Rebirth*, having discarded the last of her humanity and fully embraced becoming a demon to ascend as the queen of the Underworld, ruling as the Incubus King Papiyas' consort, participating in his plan to eradicate the universe in total darkness and create a new world where only demons rule absolute, and adopting her new name "**The Phantom Witch**" (幻影の魔女, *Genei no Majo*?) before the destruction of the Incubus Faction during the Sinidicate War although she played a special role by overthrowing the government of most of Asia and activated the Planetary Defense Shield so that the Brain Flayers, the alien fleets can invade further and keeping the heroes out until someone deactivated the shield.

## Appearance

Shiranui is a very beautiful woman with a very curvaceous and erotic body coupled with a huge pair of breasts. Shiranui's Taimanin suit looks a lot like a bunny suit but made out of technology, Shiranui's hair is brown with bits going downwards. Shiranui also has a dark wedding dress which gave her the name the Dark Bride and a full bodied rubber outfit that fully covers her body but can unmask her head so that easy to notice who she is in which people began to call her the Rubber Woman.

In Samurai Dragon Amatsu and the Lady in the Water, she wore her her hair in lengthy twin-tails that were tied up in a pink ribbon. She also kept longer side-bangs.

After her full transformation into a demon, as the Phantom Witch, her skin's color changed to blue, with red markings over her body, her ears become pointed and her head grew four curved horns, two smaller ones at each side of the head and two larger ones at the back.

## Personality

Shiranui is described as a caring and nurturing individual. She has a playful side to her as well, and frequently enjoys engaging in light teasing with her loved ones. Despite her playful personality, Shiranui took her job as a Taimanin very seriously. She chose to continue her profession as a Taimanin with her husband, Yukimura, even after they had their daughter, Yukikaze. After starting a family, Shiranui became a loving wife and mother to her husband and daughter respectively. She also looked after the Akiyama siblings, Rinko and Tatsurou, who she treated like they were her own children, and they in turn view her as their honorary aunt. Shiranui maintained a very health work-life balance, never letting her responsibilities as a Taimanin get in the way of her family life. She would always keep her family informed of her day-to-day activities and her Taimanin missions, which allowed them to realize that something was wrong shortly after she went on the fateful mission that would lead to her disappearance.

After being captured and brainwashed by Under Eden, Shiranui's personality changed drastically. Shiranui became a nymphomaniac whose main desires are to please her masters and engage in debauchery. Her kind, playful personality was warped into becoming distant and sadistic. While in this state, Shiranui would frequently sport an "empty smile" lacking any of the warmth it once had, and often reacting to situations in cold indifference. Her lighthearted teasing changed to being more passive-aggressive, if not downright malicious. In her brainwashed stated, Shiranui attitude is described as almost to be like a act of her old self. She would attack her loved ones without hesitation or remorse if ordered to by her masters. At one point, Shiranui killed a clone of Yukikaze on Ryuuji's orders to test her loyality to him, while being unaware that the person she decapitated was just a copy of her daughter. The only time she would show any "true" affection is towards whoever is designated to be her "master" at the time, or if the people she once loved engages in the same life debauchery as her. To that end, the brainwashed Shiranui greatly desires to see both her biological daughter, Yukikaze, and surrogate daughter, Rinko and later granddaughter, Hotaru Akiyama, embrace a new life slavery under her masters. However, Shiranui would act unconcern if her "masters" deem her loved ones to be "failures" as potential slaves.

After the defeat of Ryuuji Kuroi and his followers, Shiranui was able to return to her old self, and deeply regrets her actions while she was under their control.

## Background

### Samurai Dragon Amatsu

Shiranui Mizuki is the daughter of Reina Mizuki and Gendo Mizuki and she appeared when she meets Yukimura Katsuki during the Osaka Crisis. She had became the target of Nobunaga Oda who is resurrected.

### Kaiju of Retribution Tatsura

Though she had made a small appearance, her disappearance had a big impact with her daughter, Rinko and Tatsurou investigating Under Eden.

### Tatsura vs. Hellbourne

Shiranui appeared as the Rubber Woman, infected Shizuru Kousaka with the Eve Chip

## Relationships

### Gendo Mizuki

Despite Gendo being her father, Shiranui had a strained relationship with him both before and during Osaka Crisis.

### Reina Mizuki

Before her mother’s death, Shiranui was so close with Reina.

### Yukimura Katsuki

She and Yukimura Katsuki first met around the time when they were 18 years old during the Osaka Crisis in 2010. They had known each other in the span of four months prior to Yukimura's first encounter against Nobunaga Oda, who was resurrected in the present day. Yukimura's hot-blooded personality, with a "charge-to-battle-headfirst" mindset, as Shiranui called it, clashed with here serene and calm personality, resulting in the first few months of their relationship being more akin to that of rivals than friends. Due to Nobunaga's ambition to capture Shiranui for reasons that were unknown at the time, Yukimura dedicated upon himself to protect her from danger, which was why he was seen by many enemies of Shiranui as the number one obstacle to capturing her.

Having never been in a relationship nor being that close to a girl, the fire samurai had been shy to the water Taimanin and was sometimes unsure on what he wished to express on her himself. However, during and especially after the Osaka Crisis, Shiranui and Yukimura realized that they loved the other and needed each other to survive. Despite the heavy burden that the two carry as a samurai and a Taimanin who fight evil wherever and whenever, they fully understood each other, though occasionally they would delve to tough disagreements in how they plan or fight. Two months after the Osaka Crisis ended and Nobunaga was defeated, Shiranui and Yukimura fully sealed their relationship as lovers and tied the knot together. According to Asagi, the two were a great power couple and strong partners, flowing perfectly in rhythm like "fire and water". However, over the years, especially at some time prior to her capture, she and Yukimura became a little more distant from each other, but still maintained a strong family bond with their daughter, Yukikaze, as well as Rinko and Tatsurou, who they also viewed as children of theirs.

### Yukikaze Mizuki

She is the mother of Yukikaze Mizuki. Shiranui acts in a motherly way and talks calmly to her daughter Yukikaze. She would also chastise her whenever she acted too pridefully. She would cook Yukikaze's favorite dishes and spoil her quite a lot, both having an excellent relationship. Sometimes, she is shown to tease her daughter lovingly, which Yukikaze enjoys.

### Rinko Akiyama

She viewed Rinko as a really skilled Taimanin early on, telling her and her brother to take care of Yukikaze.

### Tatsurou Akiyama

Similarly to Rinko, she requests that he looks after Yukikaze and knowing that he is weaker, she told him to become stronger to protect her.

### Muneichi Yazaki

She will resist her mind break in Under Eden for a long time even though he is one responsible for giving her the mission to investigate Yomihara.

### Ryuuji Kuroi

After Real's training in Under Eden completely failed, she meets the Incubus King Papiyas, in his human disguise with the alias Ryuuji Kuroi. While she tried to resist at first, she is turned to his side and mind-broken into his loyal soldier and assassin and later concubine which leads to her having his son/heir, Zero.

### Asagi Igawa

Shiranui served Asagi for a short time, when she became headmaster. Both women are known to be of equal strength and they respected each other. After her change of allegiance, Shiranui will be rather insulting to Asagi even when sending a message. She tells Asagi not to interfere with Papiyas' plans.

### Nobunaga Oda

She is the target of Nobunaga Oda who is resurrected during the Osaka Crisis

### Zero

She is the mother of Zero, the son of her with Ryuuji Kuroi. During the Sindicate War when Zero defected, she is furious with him.

### Wataru and Hotaru Akiyama

She is the grandmother of Tatsurou and Yukikaze's twin children Wataru and Hotaru. Under her loyalty to the Incubus King, she wanted her granddaughter to join in along with her mom and aunt to serve Sindicate of Moonless Night as soldiers/slaves.
