Yakusha is a beautiful woman, with long black hair and a generally serene expression. She is slightly more muscular than the rest of the female cast, but not to the extent of, say, Utsunomiya. She rarely opens her eyes, but when she does, her clan's trademark darkened eyes can be seen. She is married to Hanjuro, a hitman (who is 12 years older than her), and has two children: Karla and Sarla.
