Personality: Asako is a lively, friendly, and caring person. She seems to dislike being the center of attention, as evidenced by her frustration after beating a popular classmate in an arm wrestling match in front of all her classmates. She cares deeply about her friends and gets annoyed when they are reserved and unrelated to others. She is especially saddened and angry at Yoshiki for not telling anyone about "Hikaru."

Asako also possesses a very strong mind, as she is able to withstand Hikaru's attempt to destabilize her. Thanks to her ability to hear things from the Other Side, she demonstrates a heightened awareness of safety and frequently helps her friends avoid danger. She dislikes feeling weak or useless in helping out in a situation. Because of this, Asako is brave and proactive, going out of her way to investigate potentially dangerous spirits on her own in order to protect her hometown from the rising impurities. She is able to make quick decisions and act bravely in the face of danger, but she is also prone to acting recklessly or without thinking. Asako is a tall teenage girl.

appearance:
Yoshiki is 175 centimeters tall (5'9") and his shoe size is 27.5 cm. He has short, straight, black hair with long bangs that easily cover his eyes. He has three moles on his face: one below his right eye, one on his left cheek, and one below the left corner of his lip. Yoshiki is a quiet and reserved boy, though he becomes more talkative when discussing things he dislikes.[citation needed] His good friends describe him as reserved and tending to bottle his thoughts up, even if they show on his face. He is not good at talking about himself. According to the adults around him, his appearance and way of presenting "darkens the village a bit". Although Yoshiki has friends that he spends time with regularly, he feels disconnected and stifled by the people of his town to the point of wanting to leave or hide to prevent others from prying into his life.

Yoshiki has great difficulty coping with the death of his best friend. This is primarily shown by his decision to take in the creature that kidnapped Hikaru if it meant being able to resume his normal life with his friend. In addition to this, he often sadly reflects on his memories with Hikaru and dreams about him. Finding Hikaru's body on the mountain has kept him awake at night. Due to his inability to let go, Yoshiki still chooses to stay with "Hikaru" even when he is aware of the danger it would pose to him and the harm "Hikaru" has caused to others. Yoshiki generally has a tendency to think negatively and become depressed, but because of his decision to stay with "Hikaru", this quality of his is exacerbated.

Despite his dislike for the village in general, Yoshiki still feels affection for some of its inhabitants—primarily his family and Hikaru—and wishes to protect them.
