Yakuzen Yaku (
Appearance[]
Yaku has a similar appearance to her granddaughter, Kusuri, but due to the strength of her granddaughter's immortality drug prototype, her appearance is not reverted by the neutralization drug. She has turquoise eyes and long, straight red hair. However, her bangs are much more well-kept, and she has a smaller ahoge.
She wears a traditional kimono and wooden sandals.
When Yaku was young and still an active military medic, she wore a light-colored shirt, white medical coat, light-colored trousers, and boots and carried a medical kit.
Personality[]
Yaku comes off as a calmer and more mature version of Kusuri. She tends to act rather grandmotherly towards the others and seems to enjoy the youthful antics of the younger members of the family. She also is rather coy and tends to tease Rentarou.
Yaku is also technologically illiterate and easily confused by modern technology. She refers to smartphones as planks, and buttons as peony flowers. She also seems to be afraid of cars. Like her granddaughter, she ends her sentences with "-nanoja" ("yes, yes" in the official translation), a more antiquated version.
Abilities[]
Chemistry[]
As a member of the Yakuzen household, Yaku is very good with drugs, and has ton knowledge of craft medicine and botany. She has been seen to have a lot of agility. Also due to her older age, she has a great deal of traditional knowledge.
Obstacle Breakthrough[]
Apart from being able to making drugs and treat soldiers, Yaku can also pass through all obstacles without any problems (like remembering her military training in the past time).
History[]
Yaku seems to have been born in the early 20th century (though there are references that make her sound older). Yaku's interest in the making of drugs and medical treatments seem to go back to World War II where she appears to have treated Imperial Japanese soldiers. During this time, she met her husband, though she coyly refuses to go into detail.
It is not known when she gave birth to Kusuri's father or when her husband died.
Etymology[]
- Yakuzen (薬膳) literally translates to "medicinal cooking."
- Yaku is written in Katakana (ヤク), thus she does not have a direct name translation. However, Yaku is the Onyomi reading for the kanji 薬, like in her surname.
- Yaku, when written utilizing the Goroawase wordplay system, can be written with the numbers 8 (Hachi/Ya) and 9 (Kyuu/Ku), which is her true age. This is also represented in her birthday of August 9th.
Trivia[]
- Yaku has kissed and been kissed by Rentarou at least 18 times as of Chapter 180.
