Personality

She also seems surprised when Teru says she doesn't know her, not even after her introduction, and is also annoyed when she doesn't recognize her in her civilian appearance. However, when she deems it necessary, she can behave in a more friendly manner, as when he helped Chihiro Nagata on her climb, but at the same time she always mocked Teru for her lack of stamina to accompany them.
