Personality

Warmth defines how Iori treats nearly everyone, the lone exception being Izumi, with whom she is firm. That strictness sharpens around the shop, where she regularly presses him into helping run Cake Shop Iori. Toward his friends she is generous, handing out cake and letting Kōichi Shindō stay over almost whenever he asks.
