Yukio

Yukio is a Yuki-Onna (lit. Snow Woman) who runs an onsen resort catering to various Extra-species.

Appearance
Yukio, as befitting for her name and race, is a tall, slender, elegant woman with pale skin and long, pale hair reaching her knees. Her eyes distinctively lack pupils, adding to her icy design.

Her hair is done with a set of pins resembling a snowflake and wears a kimono adorned with snowflakes. She tends to wear it somewhat loose, exposing her large breasts slightly. In order to tolerate the high temperatures of the hot springs she sometimes also wears a special environmental suit.

Personality
Yukio, as expected of a race associated with the cold, is very emotionally distant, thus making it difficult for her to express herself openly and for others to find her intimidating. While polite, she can come off as standoffish and sullen. When talking about the young heir to the hot springs she runs she shows genuine affection and unconsciously grins. But it's also shown if her emotions run wild she has a tendency to lose control of her ability to control ice.

Skills and Traits

 * Yuki-onna physiology
 * Low body temperature: As a Yuki-Onna, Yukio's body temperature is much lower than that of a human. Low enough to freeze the ground beneath her feet, which is part of the reason the resort needs heated floors. Due to this, Yukio cannot handle higher temperatures that are considered comfortable for humans and most extra-species. Nonetheless, she is training herself to better tolerate these temperatures.
 * Cryokinesis: Yukio is able to drastically lower the temperature of her surroundings by choice, though she can lose control of this power if she gets emotional. When this happens she can instantly freeze a bath filled with hot water.

Possessions

 * Environmental suit: Yukio possesses a bulky environmental suit. Due to her lower body temperature, she needs this suit to handle the higher temperatures that humans require to live, though she is training herself to be less reliant upon the suit.

Plot
Yukio is (ironically) the proprietor of a hot springs resort constructed around attracting extra-species patrons. Hwoever, due to her cold demeanor and the lack of extra-species she has few customers thus Ms. Smith sends Kurusu and his homestay guests to her inn in order to test the facilities.

After the group partakes in the facilities (the hot springs actually being mixed bathing) Kurusu goes into one of the indoor baths to relax on his own. However, he already finds Yukio there, explaining that she's been building a resistance to high temperatures so she can run the inn better. She laments her lack of guests, explaining that she started her homestay at the hot springs and became extremely close to the young heir who she's clearly wanting to marry, the young man having built a special bath for her due to her physiology thus she came upon the idea of making a resort catering to extra-species. She partly blames herself, saying she can't smile like he does, though Kurusu notes she was grinning unconsciously when thinking of her beloved young master.

However, this caused Yukio to lose control of her composure and nearly freeze Kurusu. Embarrassed beyond belief at her actions, she claims she'll shut her doors but she is convinced to keep her inn open, the resort hosting special events where extra-species guests and prospective homestay hosts can meet.

Trivia

 * Yukio first appeared not in the series proper, but in a four panel manga on Okayado's Twitter feed.
 * She is thus far the only other girl besides Tionishia to be of a race indigenous to Japan
 * She is dating the son of the owners of the resort.
 * Like most characters, her name is a pun on the name of her species, in this case Yuki-Onna.
