Mizuki Yukikaze

Yukikaze is the protagonist of the Taimanin Yukikaze visual novel series and OVA.

She is a prodigy Taimanin, well known known for her extremely strong "Lighting Art". Yukikaze is given missions in Gosha Academy, together with her best friends, Rinko and Tatsurou.

Personality
Yukikaze is an energetic upbeat girl and a lesser tsundere. She has a complex about the small size of her chest, height and loses her temper if she feels insulted in that regard. She makes her mind up quickly about people and is stubborn because of that she requires a lot of time to change her mind on people, she deems shady or rude.

Yukikaze weas her emotions on her sleeves, crying and cheering the loudest around her friends. However, dealing with strangers, she doesn't talk alot, as she gets shy. In reality Yukikaze does not have many friends, as new people interpret her few word reactions, as the once of an aloof genius. Thinking, she's not interested in being friends.

Naive, very stubborn and boastful at times, Yukikaze can be hard to deal with but cares deeply about the friends and will always try to comfort them, when they need it. Yukikaze feels pride for being a Taimanin and wants to be respected for it, wishing to become just like her mother. With her clothes being designed, like her mother's old Taimanin costume. Yet in contrast to her boasts to friends, she is insecure and worries that her skills are far below her mentors, mother and her best friend Rinko. However, she will almost never voice such personal worries, further isolating her.

Yukikaze loves to play ego-shooters and is enthusiastic about e-sport but talks about her hobby only with people she trusts. She has a very famous pro FPS gamer persona, and an expensive gaming setup but keeps this a secret. She likes to be active outside as well, mostly swimming or rushes to her favorite sweet shop "Inageya".

Sexual or romantic topics seem to turn her red of embarrassing, as she has the biggest issues expressing her real feelings. However, does not dislike it and is just clumsy about addressing her wishes.

Appearance
Yukikaze is a young woman with long brown hair worn in pigtails, with a small bust, and a deep tan. She wears a mostly black and red swimsuit like battle suit.

History
Her late Taimanin father, was also a user of the "Lighting Art" and taught her the fundamentals. She grew up with the love and care of her retired Taimanin mother, Mizuki Shiranui, at Mizuki Mansion. Shiranui would train her, together with her best friend and senior, Rinko, and "possible boyfriend", Tatsurou.

Yukikaze became a student at Gosha Academy, well known as a prodigy student. Her talent was viewed as part of the next elite Taimanin generation, close to veterans like Asagi, Sakura or Murasaki, that also were her teachers. Both Rinko and Yukikaze applied and graduated from a special camp, an elite training course separated from normal Academy curriculum, at the age of 13.

However, one day her Mother Shiranui was called for one more mission but disappeared and had been missing since. Four years after that, her father died on a mission searching for his wife. Leaving Yukikaze behind, with the only hope, that her mother could still be alive. Five years have passed since Shiranui's disappearance, before the events of TY1.

In the prologue of TY1, Yukikaze is on a mission with Rinko and Tatsurou, killing multiple Beastman demons. Finding Yazaki Muneichi, a corrupt politician, making deals with the demonic target they have. Killing the main target but not allowed to kill the politician, he threatens her and Rinko, calling Yukikaze flat, which results in Yukikaze spin-kicking his face, breaking his jaw. Yazaki Muneichi swears his revenge but the mission is considered successful.

Yukikaze is allowed by Asagi, to go on a infiltration mission with Rinko, to find intel about her missing mother in Under Eden, a brothel in the underground city Yomihara. Their plan: pretending to be captured by their contact Slaver Zokt and then working as hostess or prostitutes, to gather information. However, they are deceived by Zokt, not informing them that captured women don't have that "privilege", and need to become sex slaves prostitutes instead. Real the owner of Under Eden explaining, after their arrival, that such slaves receive special training but is being vague about details. Pressured to either end the mission in disgrace, running away (not finding her mother), or becoming a sex slave (maybe turning things around later), Yukikaze and Rinko, decides to sign the magical contract.

In the bad ending routes it is revealed that Real and Yazaki Muneichi are brothers and this had been a trap from the beginning. Yukikaze and Rinko both become slave prostitutes for real, broken by pleassure they remain in Under Eden for almost a year. Tatsurou attempts to resuce them but is stopped by Yukikaze's brainwashed mother Shiranui, which otherwise does not appear in Taimanin Yukikaze (1).

In the true ending Tatsuro worries and wishes to double check on the situation early. Resulting in the rescue crew of Asagi and Sakura, saving both Yukikaze and Rinko, after weeks of sexual training and body modification but before any real sex has started.

After the events of TY1, Yukikaze's body remains modified fighting her strong sexual urge with medication and tools of Kiryu Sabato. On top of that, inside her body an EVE chip is found and removed. Kickstarting the investigation into the Washizu Group and Seishu Academy of TY2, as they are most likely manufacturer. In the prolgue, Yukikaze and Rinko hunt down Yazaki Muneichi, that tries to leave Japan and sell technology to the UFS. However, confronted at an empty airport, he is killed by Yukikaze. At the same time Tatsuro, investigates Seishu Academy as an undercover student.

As part of the true ending of TY2, Tatsuro will not require backup, discover the connection and remove an EVE chip from his mission partner Kousaka Shizuru, which was attacked by a disguised woman in rubber. This results in a raid of the Washizu Material research facility, lead by Yukikaze, Shizuru, and Tatsuro. As they all confront the mastermind the hidden mastermind the "Incubus King", Yukikaze and Rinko are able to blast his monsterious form away however, he is restored with no harm just seconds later.

Yukikaze's mother Shiranui revealed to be alive and loyal to the Incubus King, having suggested turning Yukikaze and Rinko into slaves/soldiers, which could have happened in the bad ending. Both her and the Incubus King disappear, as Yukikaze cries out to her mother in shock.

Timeline TABA
Appearing in some events, she doesn't know Fuuma Kotaro from Gosha Academy. The events of TY1 to TY2, seems to have happened in some form, with (what if) events hinting of some slightly altered history of TY2, as lewd things have happened with a happy end. She remains within the Taimanin group and fights with Kotaro's New Fuuma Clan multiple times.

Timeline RPGX
The events of TY1 to TY2, seems to have happened in some form. Yukikaze is a classmate of Fuuma Kotaro, and becomes friends with him after some interactions and events. Her relationship with Tatsurou has slowed down, as he is less and less mentioned. Her butler Tokirai Zenki is introduced and an older Mizuki Yukikaze (Future) from a Dark Future Timeline, which does confirm that Yukikaze has some loving feelings for Kotaro.

Timeline Action
In the Action Taimanin timeline her mother has not been kidnapped and she works together with Fuuma Kotaro as part of his Taimanin Task Force. Her relationship with Tatsurou, is almost never mentioned as Kotaro takes up a bigger spot in her life.

OVA
The OVA follows a slightly altered bad end route of Taimanin Yukikaze. Yukikaze now also owns a pendant, she will hold to remind herself of Tatsurou, while working as a sex slave. She will lose the pendant near the end, symbolizing the separation. In the OVA Yukikaze's doesn't meet her mother and events are not shown, like the underground training. (only shown in the intro and quick flashes).

The seal mark on Yukikaze only appears when she resists, on her stomach, instead of it being permanently on her tongue. Yazaki also confronts her being Rael brother way earlier, on top of that instead of Real, it is Yazaki taking her virginity.
