Yako Katsuragi

Birthday: March 10 Age: 16 Height: 159 Weight: 43 Yako is a 16yearold high school girl and the very first character introduced in the manga. She meets Neuro when he appears and desecrates her fathers shrine while promising to help solve the mystery of her fathers death. This meeting quickly leads to a partnership: Yako becomes Neuros cover pretending to be an investigator while Neuro acts as her assistant. She has an insatiable appetite which people often associate her with with a castiron stomach to match and a knack for understanding human psychology that occasionally provides Neuro with the information he is unable to obtain because he is unfamiliar with how humans operate. Yako is even able to understand Neuro to a degree thanks to an amalgamation between the two aforementioned traits she compares Neuros opinion of food puzzles over that for oxygen shouki to an experience that she had hunting for oysters underwater. Neuro enjoys abusing her though he does compliment her at times of success albeit through a patronizing tone. Despite all that Yako goes through on a daily basis she is relatively calm during highstress situations such as being kidnapped by Sai.
