As of 2018, she is currently working as a nutritionist in Chiba.

Appearance[]

Yukie is a girl who stands at average height with reddish brown hair and matching colored eyes.

She's normally seen wearing a relaxed expression on her face, which some claim to be "critter-like", and she's usually seen wearing the manager's uniform for Fukurodani's volleyball team.

As of 2018, after graduating from Fukurodani Academy, her appearance has changed very little, for her hair has grown much longer in length.

Personality[]

Yukie appears to be a well-mannered, calm, relaxed, and mature individual, especially towards her team. She is also shown to have a great appetite and appears to eat anything that she can get her hands on.

This was seen during the barbeque at Shinzen High when she had a plate piled high with a variety of food during the barbecue and when she also took several onigiri rice balls and ate them in one go[1].

Background[]

Yukie currently attends Fukurōdani Academy, located in Tokyo Metropolis in the region of Kantō.

Plot[]

Tokyo Expedition Arc[]

Yukie is introduced as one of Fukurōdani's managers during the summer training camp. She is mostly seen in the background or along with Kaori Suzumeda.

Shortly after Hinata and Lev joined the third gym group for free practice, Yukie would inform the players to quickly finish their practice; otherwise, they would miss out on dinner. Later, when Fukurōdani was playing their final game against Karasuno, she was able to pick up on Bokuto, becoming frustrated at how Karasuno was starting to get the better of the team.

After he came out of his mood, Yukie helped cheer for him, but she and Suzumeda commented that his mood swings were the reason that he was no longer one of the top three athletes in the nation. For most of the camp, Yukie cheers for the team from the sidelines, and she is seen eating a great amount of food during the barbeque.

Spring High Preliminary Arc[]

When Fukurōdani is playing against Nekoma, Yukie is the acting manager for the team on the court. Just as the match is about to begin, Yukie approaches Akaashi and asks if they should use their standard method of getting Bokuto to peak condition of claiming they heard a girl in the stands say how amazing the ace is.

Tokyo Nationals Arc[]

Although not often shown, Yukie appears to be the manager on the bench most during Fukurōdani's games at nationals.

Final Arc[]

After high school, Yukie became a nutritionist at a food company. She and Suzumeda get together to watch the Jackals and Adlers game[2].

    Yukie and Suzumeda generally appear to be close as they are often seen together, hanging out, and chatting about volleyball among other things. After they had graduated from high school, they are seen together again watching Bokuto play.
  • Kōtarō Bokuto: Both of them seem to be good friends. Much like the rest of the team, she is also aware of Bokuto's tendencies to fall victim to his mood swings and knows how she can help bring him out of it if needed. Bokuto is noted to frequently borrow notes from her often, except that he has a tendency to forget to return "anything" to her. Aside from that, they both share an interest in food. And it is also worth noting that Bokuto gave Yukie the nickname "Yukippe".
