Yumi is the animated counterpart of Yumi Yoshimura. She is the second member with Ami Onuki and one of the two main protagonists of the series.
Appearance[]
She has short light purple hair, looking like a growed-out bobcut. She dresses in a rock style with a studded choker and two handcuffs, a purple T-shirt with a skull on it, a black miniskirt, purple shorts and black/purple punk boots. She often shows her highlighted fang in official arts and a pilot episode, while rarely does in main episodes.
Personality[]
Yumi's demeanor is not just like Ami's. She is sarcastic, cynical, vain, sassy, stubborn, and gained with self-importance. She loves things like ninjas and anything else rough and tough. She rarely signs in any excitement as "she is too cool" to show it. For some reasons, she comes off as rude and insults others she sees as "not cool".
Despite being similar age group with and more serious than Ami, Yumi is also more impetuous than Ami and rushes headlong into a decision before thinking. However, Yumi has a mature side, too, and for some reasons with Ami's childish obsessions. She also has a big heart and is willing to help while she can.
In the pilot, she was depicted being more calmer instead.
Trivia[]

- Like her friend Ami, Yumi has her own motorized scooter in some episodes. According to puffycrew.blogspot.com, a former developers' blog, their motorized scooters were influenced by real-life Puffy AmiYumi's music video for Wild Girls on Circuit that includes retro-styled Yamaha Vino scooters.
- While her and Ami's accurate age is never revealed in episodes, some episodes like "Team Teen" and "Ninjcompoop" imply that the duo are teenagers as animated characters. Their ability of driving their own scooters and tour bus could be a clue to guess they are about 14 or 15.
