Star, Yuriko

ユリコ・スター

Lt. Commander Yuriko Star is another officer who strictly follows the rules. Yuriko joined the UPSF to bring structure to her life and attempts to obey regulations in nearly every situation. However, unlike Yamamoto, she has no issue telling Tylor when he has done something wrong and will even slap him if he goes too far out of line. Yuriko also tries to downplay her gender, prioritizing her role as a soldier over being a woman. This becomes a sensitive topic when someone comments on Tylor's obvious attraction to her looks, as she points out that she has never used her appearance to advance; an equally sensitive point for her is her own budding attraction to him. Yuriko is one of the most rational and level-headed officers on the Soyokaze. Although she is senior to Yamamoto, her specialty as an intelligence officer places her outside the chain of command.
