## Appearance

Shinoa is described as a short, adorable, and beautiful young girl with shoulder lengthened lilac purple hair same as Mahiru's, and a large, fuchsia pink bow at the end of a twisted braid. Guren describes her as having clear, piercing cherry red eyes that seemed to stare out at the world and skin so pale that it was almost transparent to her blood. On her left arm, Shinoa has a black shackle. She wears a black sailor-like uniform with ten yellow buttons along the side of the dress. Placed before the last set of buttons, Shinoa wears a silver belt, and on her hands are white gloves. There are two green stripes around the wrists of the uniform. On the neck side, she wears a dark pink bow tie. She is shown to bear a striking resemblance to her sister as she shares the same face characteristic and hair. As a teenager, Shinoa has grown taller, but is still notably shorter than many other people her age. Also, she has a very short, petite and thin figure and her hair is pinned up at the back with many little fuchsia pink bows with side braids. While her natural eye color is a cherry red, after being possessed by Shikama Dōji, her eyes become a pale sunflower yellow, with thinner irises and pupils. In her supervisor role, Shinoa wears her school uniform, a sailor fuku which consists of a grey blouse with black cuffs that have teal trim in the middle. It has a black sailor-style collar with has teal trim and a single five teal petal design in the middle. The ribbon of the uniform is also teal and is tied in the front and laced through a loop attached to the blouse. The bottom is a black skirt. She wore it with dark blue knee high socks and white shoes.

Shinoa is often seen wearing her Japanese Imperial Demon Army (JIDA) uniform which consists of a long-sleeved black coat with a standing collar which has a magenta bow tie around it. The coat has two rows of gold buttons on the front, light green details including the shoulder epaulets, which has a fourragère passing under and around her right side. Along with that, she wears a pair of white gloves, an armband on her left arm, and a white web belt with a gold waist-plate. She also wears the standard black skirt, dark gray thigh-high socks and knee-high black boots.

## Personality

Shinoa is a very upbeat, mischievous and happy-go-lucky girl, who loves playing pranks on people. Shinoa is one of the most mysterious characters throughout the series. She is quiet, troubled, brooding, grim, moody, seemingly emotionless, intelligent, studious and sarcastic. Shinoa having spent centuries traversing the Nagoya, she has evolved into a "fearless daredevil", and her fondness for mischief has turned her into something of a trickster. Shinoa started off as an insecure girl at the beginning of the series because of her ignorance of her true origins and her strange, yet surprisingly potent powers. Possessing a apathetic attitude and does not put much emotion into her words. She loves teasing others and is quite dry-humored. Shinoa generally tends to smirk before teasing or performing her antics towards others, placing them in uncomfortable situations. She can be proud and arrogant but has a nice, joyful and cheery part of her. Rarely, Shinoa shows that she can have a scary and manipulating side. Shinoa has made a contract with Shikama doji. This makes her part-demon. Her personality while fighting consists of a cruel, but quiet state. This causes her to give off a growling sense. At times, she lacks self-control and will get mad easily, increasing her tone and growling. Shinoa keeps her developing emotions for Yuichiro in reserve, as she says she wants to keep her feelings "professional" and because of this, she shows to have a tsundere side.

Due to her circumstances surrounding her family, Shinoa grew up without knowing what a sibling is, and never truly cared about anyone until her current squad was formed. She greatly respects Yūichirō's resolve and feelings toward his family and wants to help him. She shows surprisingly little emotions when talking to Yūichirō about her sister's death, suggesting that Shinoa is emotionally detached to people she knows and keeps her friends away at an arm's length.

Shinoa shows that she does not care about the conflict inside her family, claiming that family conflicts are what caused the death of her older sister. Unlike Kureto, she lacks ambition and only wants to serve the army well. She explained to some soldiers that she does not actively seek a rise in rank, and her lack of ambition (and Mahiru overshadowing her) is what caused her to be cast out from her family.

However, it was not until after she lost the mock battle between her squad and Guren's three-person squad, did Shinoa finally realize the fear of losing someone important to her, and even a tiny mistake or her pranks can cost her family their lives. Also, she and her squad can grow even stronger and the closer they grow, the more powerful they shall become.

Shinoa has a vulnerable complex about her short stature when Yūichirō and Shihō teased her for being too short to drive a car, she laughs smugly before proceeding to materialize her Cursed Gear to physically teach them a lesson.

She developed feelings for Yūichirō, in which she is uncertain of.

As a leader of her squad, Shinoa takes a calm and strategic approach to situations.

She can call out the demon, which she fondly addresses as "Shi", inhabiting it out of the weapon to attack an enemy. It is strongest at mid-range. Her primary ability is to detect anything that comes within the attack radius of her scythe.
