Kuriko Matsudaira
Daughter of paranoid father Matsudaira Katakuriko 松平 片栗虎.
Developed a crush on Mayora 13, aka Hijikata Toushirou 土方 十四郎 in Episode 35 when her father, Kondou, Hijikata and Okita were spying on her and her first date.
Subsequently, the 2nd time father spied on her while she was working at a konbini Asked Hijikata out for a date on her own, and during the “date,” which Hijikata planned to make her ditch him, she was never once put off by having to watch porn-movie, eat the Hijikata-Special (in fact she liked it, leading to Hijikata blushing happily momentarily) or see Hijikata behaving like a coward in front of “hooligans” (played by the Yorozuya trio). The hooligan incident is an exact replay, including spoken lines, of Episode 101 when Hijikata was confronted by a group of Jouishishi rebels after being newly possessed by the spirit of the cursed sword, and had to be rescued by Itou Kamotarou 伊東 鴨太郎.
