Alternate Timeline (Majikoi S Koyuki route)[]
In her childhood, Koyuki approached Yamato with an offering of marshmallows and a request for friendship, he accepts her as a 'part-time' member of the Kazama Family instead of rejecting her. Similar to Miyako, Yamato's friendship and support enables her to withstand severe emotional turmoil. No longer needing to be supported as much by her friends Jun Inoue and Touma Aoi, the latter and Hideo Kuki are able to spend much more time conversing, slowly changing the flow of history. Koyuki and Yamato maintain a steady friendship, but things otherwise remain largely the same until their second year of high school, shortly after the Bushido Plan is announced. There, a splinter faction of the Kuki Group attempts a coup on the Japanese government and economy, but are ultimately thwarted by the combined efforts of the Kawakami Academy student body, with the Kazama Family at their forefront. If Yamato chooses not to neutralize Benkei Musashibou by seducing her, he will begin a romantic relationship with Koyuki.
Powers and Abilities[]
She is a very proficient fighter who was revealed in the series to use Taekwondo, a Korean martial art that mainly uses kicks, which she combines with her speed. Koyuki mostly fights when needing to protect Touma Aoi or when she needs to. She also seems to be very smart since she is one of the people of the S-Class. She also possesses some other skills that are sometimes considered weird to people. Her true fighting ability are shown during the Agave Route where she fought on par with Miyako Shiina and her own route during Majikoi S where she fought against Lin Chong together with Miyako.
Kodachi Wielder: During the manga it shows that Koyuki knows a little bit how to use a kodachi against her battle against Kazuko Kawakami, although she didn't really use it. She mainly uses a weapon as defense and attacks with her powerful legs to deal damage.
Artistic Storyteller: Despite a lot of people finding the stories she writes unusual and strange, She gets praised often for it by Touma are considered as masterpieces by the public. These strange stories may be connected to things that happened to her in the past when she was all alone. So far the only one that criticizes her stories was Jun.
Exceptional Strength: During the series, particularly in the manga and in Majikoi S, it has been shown that her legs are really powerful. She easily defeated Muneo Chousokabe, one the Ten Warriors with only two kicks. Her legs are considered so powerful that Koi Kiriyama of the Kuki Corporation, a person who also specializes in kicks, considers her as one of the people who could overcome the wall of strength with her kicking ability alone. This strength in her lower extremities seems to be partly if not completely due to her Tae Kwon Do training.
Immense Speed: Because of her strong legs, she has some amazing speed as shown in the manga when she easily overwhelmed Kazuko, who is considered by Momoyo as a fighter that specializes in speed. She was also able to catch a fleeing Yoichi Nasuno easily when he tried to escape Benkei Musashibou, causing Yoichi to think she was an assassin. Combined with her other abilities in martial arts, this makes her a very agile and strong fighter.
