Personality[]
According to Kise Chiharu, Yuuichi was a kind, gentle and somewhat stubborn man who was very awkward at expressing affection. Nevertheless, the everlasting love between him and his family is clear.
Relationships[]
Kise Yayoi: Yuuichi's daughter, who he was very close to. When he came home from a tiring day of work, Yayoi's smile always made him feel better.
History[]
Yuuichi married his wife Chiharu and had one daughter, born circa 1998. Yuuichi stubbornly rejected several names suggested by the baby's grandparents, insisting on the name Yayoi, which he chose shortly after the she was born. He selected the name for its meaning related to the season of spring, as his wife's name had a similar meaning: yayoi is an archaic term for third month of the year, while Chiharu means "a thousand springs". Yuuchi gave her this name in the hopes that she would grow up to be a kind and gentle woman like her mother.
Yuuichi and Yayoi were very close. On a Father's Day when Yayoi was four years old, she gave him a hand-made card reading "Thank you, papa" and an origami fox, something he always treasured. Yuuchi confided in his wife that it was he who felt grateful to his daughter.
One day, when Yayoi was no more than five years old, the two were on a walk together when they spotted a church. Yayoi insisted on entering so that they could play wedding together, which she insisted on keeping it a secret from her mother. Yuuichi told his daughter the reason he had chosen her name, and hoped that one day she would walk down the aisle for real.
Sadly, Yuuchi died while his daughter was only five years old, leaving his wife to raise Yayoi by herself.
