Shizu or "The Swan Princess" is the only child of the daimyō Yoshimasa. She is a 15-year-old girl who is noisy and clumsy (or commonly called a tsundere girl), has a high curiosity, and is an expert in playing musical instruments. Shizu is often seen with Rokuro and Ayaka (she likes to interfere in their affairs, even if it doesn't help solve problems), and considers those two shinobi to be her personal bodyguards. Later, she becomes friend with Hotaru and often helps Shin and friends by using her father's facilities, wealth, and connections.
