*"Hi! Im Leni Yamashita! Part bitch, full ghoul!"*

*-Leni Yamashita, Tokyo Ghoul: Resurgence E4*

Leni Yamashita (born 1994) was a First Class Investigator on PGCI, before leaving to found her own group later on.

During her duty on PGCI, she had achieved the Spirit Medal for her efforts and was also given a Blossom Medal for her triumph within the siege of Slyden Prizen.

When PGCI was shut down, she left Team X to organise a new group, The Cats. They would help Goat with sieges and attacks, and also attack corrupt, high rank ghouls.

## History

Not much is known about Leni's childhood nor adolescence. We do know that she lived a life as a ghoul under the roof of her single mother before she was slaughtered by CCG Investigators. Leni was then taken to their HQ for interviews and rehab. After several attempts at conversion therapy, they eventually let Leni go, thinking she was fit for the world. Leni had actually faked progress to get out and then joined PGCI for it's missions. There she met Alex in training and the two bonded over there experience with the CCG.

She has sharp amber eyes and always wears dark, winged eyeliner. She has a light dust of freckles and a scar over her eye from a previous battle.

Her work outfit consists of a baggy, maroon, zip down hoodie, a loose crop top and a cute, plaid miniskirt. She wears the compulsory black bullet proof vest on missions. She wears chunky, plaid Converse high tops.

### Season Two

Her looks doesn't change that much, although when she joins The Cats, she gains hot pink roots.

## Personality

Leni is extremely friendly and loves to make friends. She lives a very social life and usually brought joy to miserable missions with Team X. Sometimes though, she can be overly excited about certain concerns and might scare off new people with her joy. As well, she can be rude to people and pretty blunt with people she dislikes.
She greatly enjoys missions and often plays with her criminal victims. She also dances through crowds of enemies, spiralling almost childishly with guns and kagune shards.

## Relationships

### Alex Ushimaru

Alex and Leni have a great bond. They first met each other together during PGCI training, before joining Team X together. They are best friends and use strategies against enemies.

### Ryu Nagasaki

Leni and Ryu had a cold relationship at first, since Leni overpowered him with her excitement. After a few missions together and some life threatening situations, they bond and become a good duo.

### Isaac Hasimura

She liked Isaac as friends happily, and they joked around messed up a lot. When he betrayed Team X, she was mad at him for hurting her with no remorse and still hates him to this day.

### Hhio Zanshary

Originally, both Hhio and Leni had a distaste at each other. She tried to warm up to him by showing him is desk and mess around with him like Isaac, but it didn't workout well. As such, they didn't speak much near the start. As the series progressed, the got closer and eventually became great friends.

## Powers & Abilities

**Ukaku Kagune:** Leni's ukaku kagune was a dark magenta with neon indigo highlights. It replicated big, feathered bird wings. Such design made her look almost angelic. She could wrap the wings around herself, while also extending them wide to shoot out sharp feathers. With her kagune, she had the ability to fly pretty high and use it to boost her already extraordinary gymnastic skills. Despite being pretty ranged, she could also whip people with her wings, but she'd have to be pretty close.

**Gymnastic Skills:** Leni has extremely good gymnastic skills. She can perfectly execute backflips, twirls and summersaults with good ease. She can run very well and her skills help with combat. Very agile, she is a good dodger and can skip through crowds of enemies without any reciprocations.

## Trivia

* Leni's name was originally Sophie in the draft, but was later changed for unknown reasons.
* She originally wore a leather jacket, but this was changed to give a more casual look.
* At first, she was meant to be very serious and rude about her job.
