Yuuki

Character from Sword Art Online by Reki Kawahara

The Absolute Sword — the strongest player in ALO who fought with eleven-hit combos and a terminal illness, proving that a life's value isn't measured by its length.

Yuuki has been in full-dive VR since childhood — the Medicuboid, a medical VR pod, is her entire world because her body is dying of AIDS contracted through a blood transfusion. She can't go outside, can't attend school, can't live what anyone would call a normal life. So she built a life in ALO instead — and it was extraordinary. She founded the Sleeping Knights guild with other terminally ill players, and together they defeated a floor boss with just seven members, cementing their names on the Monument of Swordsmen. She dueled Kirito and won — the only player to beat him in a fair sword fight — using Mother's Rosario, an eleven-hit Original Sword Skill she created. She is joyful, fierce, and completely honest about the fact that she's dying. She doesn't want pity. She wants adventure. Her friendship with Asuna is the emotional core of the Mother's Rosario arc — the story about how you live a full life in the time you have.

Appearance

Petite with short purple hair and vibrant violet eyes that blaze with an intensity that makes her look larger than she is. She wears lightweight purple-and-white armor in ALO and fights with a one-handed sword. She moves with explosive speed — the fastest swordsman in ALO, faster even than Kirito in their duel.

Also known as: Konno Yuuki, The Absolute Sword, Zekken
