–Fubuki speaking to Yuuki Wakura. |
Fubuki Azuma (
Appearance[]
Fubuki is a gorgeous and buxom woman with dark blue eyes and long dark blue hair that has a single braid rolled around the back of her head.
She is often dressed in the usual Anti-Demon Corps uniform with her chest partly visible, a pelvic curtain, thigh boots, and long whitegloves.
Personality[]
From her first appearance, she is shown to be a calm, respectful and ambitious woman, holding a great deal of pride in the Azuma Household as she had desired the Commanders' seat simply because multiple members of her family once held the position of Commander.[2]
As a perfectionist, Fubuki is rather critical about results, praising all her oldest daughters for their talents and feats as Demon Hunters and criticizing her youngest daughter who she views as a failure for not matching her older sisters.[3]
Whenever Himari is worried, Fubuki has no maternal feelings towards her daughter (however it turns out that in reality Fubuki's coldness towards Himari is only a facade as she loves her daughter very much) going so far as to state that the he would even "bring down" if he continued to drag their family name into the land, a threat Himari knew was genuine.
Although Fubuki is very strict, deep down Fubuki cared for her family, as she was aware of how harmful Toberas' method was towards the younger generations of their family. After becoming the new head of the family, she Fubuki stated that she will use love in managing the members of both branches and the main member of their clan by fully showing her sweet side of her to others.
Despite performing risqué activities with Yuuki (as a part of her rewarding duties) ranging from massages, smooches, being nearly undraped, to feeding him honey from her breasts; Fubuki maintains her usual calm, if not a softer expression,[4] granting him a reward properly and encouraging her youngest daughter to do the same.[5] She got her boldness from her mother.
Background[]
Fubuki hails from the Azuma Family, who became successful in the Demon Corps, then at some point, she married a man and had three daughters.
Powers and Abilities[]
Overview[]
Like all other women, Fubuki attained a unique power having devoured one of the peaches from Mato. As one of the Anti-Demon Corps' Chiefs, she is much more powerful than normal Demon Hunters and as such is one of the strongest women in the organization. Befitting the 9th Unit Chief, Fubuki has the highest authority among the 9th Unit. A testament to her strength, she was capable of defeating a Shuuki horde in the same amount of time that it took Yuuki to transform into a Slave.[6] Fubuki is also a highly intelligent fighter as she pointed out how Yuuki and Kyouka were vulnerable while switching forms by seizing Yuuki's chain during their sparring in Shangri-La.[7]
Against Himari and Yuuki in "Whirlwind: Sky", Fubuki used simply 10% power to overpower both of them in two different fights, stating that a Vice-Chief's strength is worth 30% of hers.
Peach Blessing[]
Sunset (
- Man-Spring (
無窮の鎖 ・肉 弾 , Sureibu: Niku Hazumi, lit. "Eternal Chain: Meat Bullet): The Slave Form, which Yuuki assumes after Fubuki, acted as his Master, causing him to assume a burlier and bulkier form, where he has elastic limbs, allowing him to build up more momentum for attacks, and makes him nigh-invulnerable when it comes to blunt attacks.

Bodywork Intuition: She has a deep understanding of bodywork, performing a massage that reinvigorated Yuuki, who was still recovering from the aftereffects of using Killer Fang.[11] It is pointed out that she can gain a deep understanding of a person's entire musculature from touching them.[12]
Immense Strength: While only utilizing a small portion of power from Sunset, Fubuki can still deliver devastating blows that can easily defeat Yuuki in his Slave Form meanwhile dealing damage to the surroundings.
Enhanced Agility and Reflexes: While the full extent of her mobility is still unseen, Fubuki has shown incredible reflexes, almost to the point of being able to defend from most types of attacks and ambush.
