Personality

Greed drives her at first. She reappears among her relatives purely because her father's supposed death seems to promise her a slice of his fortune. By the time the ceremony ends and Tobei admits the whole affair was staged so his children could rediscover laughter, she softens, grasps his point, and reconnects with her own playful side.

History

Word that Tobei Kagetsu had died brought Tsukiko back to the family home during the Funeral Proxy Mission, five years after she had first left the residence behind. His will offered her a share of the estate on one strange condition: her elder brother, Futa Kagetsu, had to laugh during the service. She and the rest of the clan threw everything they had into making him crack a smile. The revelation that Tobei was alive and had faked his own death left her stunned, but once he explained that he wanted his children to stop chasing money and start enjoying life, she found her humour returning.
