Michiru Saruwatari

Michiru Saruwatari ( みちる, Saruwatari Michiru) is a young Bushi girl who was saved by Musashi when she was about to be eaten by an Oni.

Appearance
Michiru is a doe-eyed, beautiful young lady with an average height. She has long dark hair, which is tied loosely, and also has some distinctive horn-like locks. Michiru has huge golden eyes that can make even Musashi's heart throbbing.

Personality
Michiru is both pretty solemn and quiet when in the presence of multiple people, giving off the illusion of tranquil fury to those unaware of her true feelings. In reality, Michiru suffers from a severe case of shyness when speaking to more than 2 people but she has started to open up her heart the day she befriended Musashi.

Kitetsu Sword
Ruri Renge (, Lapis Lazuli Lotus Flower): Michiru’s sword has a dark blade and a butterfly shaped guard on the hilt. When her sword is activated it manifests many smaller blades, which are arranged similar to an umbrella. She can use it to float in the air, just like when she saved Musashi when they fell off a cliff, and for defensive purposes as well.

Abilities
As far as it has been depicted, Michiru seems to be a very decent swordswoman whose skills have yet to be fully seen other than her masterful use of Ruri Renge for defensive purposes.

Musashi
After being saved by him from a Green Oni, Michiru developed a romantic crush on Musashi and would later confide him about her severe case of shyness. Musashi, on the other hand, was thankful she was the first young woman who would make his heart beat faster. She really wuvs him.

Trivia

 * Michiru means "Three Thousand Treasures".
 * The Saruwatari clan crest resembles one of the many family crests belonging to the Shimazu. The key difference being that, rather than a crane atop a cross, her crest depicts a butterfly beneath a cross.
