Description
Kagari Yukino is a character from the anime Lostorage incited WIXOSS, where she serves as a Selector, a participant in the series’ mysterious card battles. She is identifiable by her short orange hair and typically appears in her school uniform. Her LRIG, or the avatar card that fights alongside her, is named Yukime, who is described as being rather gentle and kind.

In terms of personality, Kagari presents an energetic and friendly demeanor. This is evident when she first encounters the protagonist, Chinatsu, and attempts to be cheerful and encouraging, even after winning their battle. However, this outward energy masks a more desperate side that emerges when she faces the high stakes of the Selector game. As she begins to lose her coins, which are essential for her survival in the game, she becomes increasingly frantic and begs for mercy from her opponents.

Kagari’s primary motivation is not deeply explored, but a crucial detail reveals that before her disappearance, she mentions there is someone she wants to see. This personal, unnamed desire is the driving force that compels her to continue battling despite the risks.

Her role in the story is significant as she is the first Selector shown to be eliminated from the game. She first appears as an opponent to the main character Chinatsu Morikawa, defeating her in a battle but then unsuccessfully trying to cheer her up afterwards. Later, desperate and down to her last coin, Kagari challenges another Selector named Hanna. When it becomes clear she will lose, she begs for mercy, but Hanna defeats her without hesitation. This loss causes Kagari to lose her final coin, which triggers a critical rule of the game: a Selector who loses all their coins has their body taken over by their own LRIG. In Kagari’s case, this leads to a tragic outcome, as her LRIG Yukime then commits suicide while inhabiting her body. This event makes Kagari the first Selector to die in the series. In a later installment, Lostorage conflated WIXOSS, after the Selector battles are permanently ended, Kagari is shown to have been reborn as a baby.

Her key relationship is with her LRIG, Yukime, with whom she is described as being good friends and battling partners. The bond between them is strong enough that Yukime’s final act is a suicide that paradoxically prevents Kagari from ever returning to her own body.

In terms of abilities as a player, Kagari uses a white-themed deck that focuses on predicting the opponent’s moves and removing cards from play. This is reflected in her LRIG Yukime’s special power, which allows her to see the opponent’s hand when used.
