Character

Sakura

桜

Sakura had a strong sense of morality. She was greatly distressed after Yato used her to kill a man and ran off in tears. After meeting with Tsuyu, she resolves to teach Yato about right and wrong. She chastised Yato after witnessing him stealing food and encouraged him to play with human children. She also helped him save a man who was being dragged by his horse. Yato initially thought to kill the horse but Sakura stopped him and told him to cut the rope instead. Through this, Yato began to have second thoughts about killing people with Hiiro. Sakura held a great appreciation for nature. She enjoyed sunsets, flowers and tiny frogs. She had stated that although she is dead, she still enjoys watching fireflies. She was also very patient with Yato, answering his questions about shrines. Sakura was also greatly respectful, using the honorific "sama" when referring to her master.
