Description
Yuria Niguredō attends high school alongside Miko Yotsuya and Hana Yurikawa. She possesses a limited ability to see spirits, typically perceiving only faint, translucent apparitions of less dangerous entities, contrasting with Miko's vivid visions of terrifying spirits. Uniquely, Yuria can detect life auras, a skill Miko lacks. Her power temporarily intensifies near unconsciousness, allowing faint detection of stronger spirits during those moments.
Driven by a persistent desire to become a powerful medium, Yuria repeatedly sought apprenticeship with Mitsue Takeda, the fortune-teller known as "Godmother," whom she viewed as all-powerful against supernatural threats. Despite Godmother's dismissals, Yuria remained determined to prove herself worthy. After Godmother closed her business, Yuria mistakenly blamed Miko and Hana's amateur influence, believing they caused Godmother's retirement. This misconception led Yuria to approach them, initially seeing Miko as a rival obstructing her path to greatness.
Pushy, fearless, determined, and mischievous, Yuria often misinterprets Miko's denials of power as mockery, fueling frustration. She harbors deep competitiveness and jealousy towards Miko and Hana's close bond, though she conceals these feelings. Previously isolated when classmates avoided her spirit talk, she ate lunch alone in the bathroom. She remains shy about her need for companionship, sheepishly setting a group photo with Miko and Hana as her phone wallpaper.
Yuria's relationship with Miko evolves significantly. After Miko restrained her in a gym equipment room to protect her from a dangerous spirit, Yuria temporarily feared Miko, misreading the act as a threat. She later gains respect for Miko, collaborating to protect Hana from threats like a river ghost. Yuria persists in believing Miko hides extraordinary psychic powers, including exorcising spirits through subtle gestures or glaring. With Hana, Yuria is protective, urging Miko not to bully her, yet also involves Hana in risky spiritual excursions like haunted tunnel photoshoots, relying on persuasion to coax her participation.
Yuria broadens her admiration beyond Godmother to figures like Romm Shindou, a self-proclaimed psychic she initially dismissed as a fraud. After he saved her from a fall during a cursed location tour, she aspired to become a genuine psychic like him. She participates in his events to strengthen her abilities, hoping to stand alongside Miko and Hana. While still driven to gain recognition for her powers, her experiences gradually soften her competitiveness into a grudging appreciation of their strengths.
In the June 2025 live-action film adaptation, Yuria appears as a core character portrayed by Naenano. The narrative involves her joining Miko to confront supernatural threats affecting their teacher and friends, with her core traits and abilities consistent with prior depictions.
