Yua Yamamoto

Uniform

**Yua Yamamoto** (山本 結愛 *Yamamoto Yua*) or **Yamayua** (やまゆあ *Yamayua*) is a member of the Tokyo Manji Gang and captain of the 3rd division.

## Appearance

Yua is an average height girl with very long strawberry blonde hair and purple eyes. Often, her hair is styled loose, letting her wavy hair flow with the wind, but she opts to have it braided whenever there is a fight or any physical activity involved. She is seen frequently wearing her middle school uniform, which is a white and blue sailor collared shirt, blue skirt, black stockings and black boots.

Her outfits tend to change a lot, but opting usually for large hoodies and t-shirts with fish nets, and for meetings and events, she wears the Toman uniform with the jacket open, and her chest wrapped in bandages. Her white mask is as well an icon of fashion on her, but says it's mostly so blood doesn't get in her mouth.

In the original timeline, Yua had dyed the ends of her hair pink and had lost quite a lot of weight, but it all happened to be part of her life as a top model.

In her second appearance as an adult, her hair was still dyed, styled in a braid, and wore a pair of black shorts with a purple tank and a pair of fishnets under her apron.

In the latest timeline, Yua looks the same, but bears a tattoo in her right thigh.

## Personality

Despite her natural glare, Yua is a very nice and happy person with a shy demeanor. She's very compassionate towards her friends and hates people who abuse their power to give others a hard time, such as Kiyomasa. She is quick to anger once someone is disrespected, but prefers to resolve things verbally than physically. Yua tends to wait things out rather than to act irrationally, unless someone she cares about is hurt or in trouble.

Yua was named the new captain of the 3rd Division due to her impenetrable resolve and the large amount of respect the other members have for her, as well as her strength and character. Lower members whom haven't heard of her tend to taunt her and try to pick on her and spread rumors, but the other captains try to make them die down before she catches any wind of them, because if she does, they'll soon regret it.

Not particularly close to the other girls, Yua is often seen around Mitsuya and the other captains, even before being one herself. She was one of Toman's first members, being brought in by Draken, and is also often seen around him, Jihye and Mikey.

Before being named a captain, Yua belonged to Mitsuya's division, and learned a lot from him. She became a source of positivity within the gang along side him, and got her levelheadedness and pacifistic nature from him as well. She likes him a lot, but preferred not to say anything to him, thinking that it might get in the way of him providing for his younger sisters. However, he confessed to her the night of the Fire Festival, when he asked her out.

Being raised along side Draken, she learned to be self-sufficient from a very young age in order to take care of both of them, and would often worry when he wouldn't come home on time. Draken has mentioned that she had to grow up faster than him at a very young age, and is thankful to have had a type of mother figure like her in his life.

### Mixology Knowledge
