Yuma Chitose is a character from Puella Magi Oriko Magica. She is a young magical girl under Kyouko's care. Yuma used to live in an abusive household, under her mother Mako Chitose, and her unnamed and unseen father. The two adults would fight often, with Yuma's father apparently cheating on Mako. Mako would take out her frustration on Yuma, kicking her around and burning her with cigarettes, while yelling at her and telling her she was useless, sometimes even kicking her out of the house for periods of time. Then, after a witch kills Yuma's parents, Kyouko saves Yuma from the witch and takes Yuma under her wing, taking pity on her. Yuma alternates between acts of maturity and childishness, showing delight in small things and childlike affection towards the people she likes, but also seriousness when events require it. She can be hot-headed and prone to spontaneous acts, yet exhibits insecurity and a strong feeling of self-worthlessness, which could be explained by her backstory as an abused child and orphan. Yuma, like other magical girls, exhibits a desire to help others. Similar to other girls, it isn't a completely selfless desire, as she has a fear of being abandoned.
