Chiyo Shimada

-All-Stars University
-Sensha-do Federation

Chiyo is a beautiful pale-skinned woman with long, light brown hair tied with a black ribbon, and hazel eyes. Her appearance is a lot less cold and her manner more friendly than Shiho Nishizumi. Physically she bears a striking resemblance to her daughter, Alice.

Chiyo is a very calm and refined woman who seems very intelligent. She is dedicated to being the best, and to her family's sensha-dō style being recognized as superior to all others, as proven in public demonstrations: when she calls Alice just before the match against the University All-Stars Team, she tells her to destroy the name of Nishizumi style. This is despite Ooarai not necessarily practicing the Nishizumi Style of sensha-dō, but perhaps because Shiho Nishizumi, her longtime rival, has become Ooarai's advocate, and because the team is led by Shiho's younger daughter, Miho Nishizumi. However, this is distinctly a matter of professional rivalry, and despite this behavior it is clear she's not a bad person —as, at the conclusion of the Ooarai vs. University All-Stars match, she and Shiho tacitly acknowledge that the competition may have become too personal. Further, she evidently loves her daughter deeply, as she honors Alice's plea to sponsor the Boko Museum despite her daughter's losing the match. She tends, however, to have trouble accepting Alice is growing up.
