Summary

A Magical Girl who wanders about trying to find a place where she belongs. Unable to figure out what she likes, what she hopes to be, or even her own identity, she is always in a state of anxiety. Like the cafe her family runs, she is calm and quiet.

Doppel Description

Vayu, Shizuku's doppel

The Doppel of fūten[1]. Its form is devata of wind[1]. The master of this emotion is disappointed in her Doppel’s ability, which, much like herself, ultimately cannot cross the sea no matter how fast it sprints about. This Doppel can swiftly reduce anything its feet touches to an arid, weathered state, but if it stays still, it too will sink into the desert ground it produces. Thus, it’s forced to constantly run around. It always runs around as fast as the wind as a result, but it’s unable to fly. When this Doppel appears, its master also sprints off along with it, but the weathered footprints left in their wake apparently make it very easy to track them down.

  1. 1.0 1.1 Both of the nature and form of her Doppel are pronounced "Futen". The Japanese spelling of the former is フーテン, the latter is 風天.


Side Story

Warning, this section contains spoilers.

The story begins with Shizuku's friends showing her something. Shizuku narrates that no-one bullies her and she has a good life. However, when she hangs out with her friends, she feels like she's not herself. For reasons she can't understand, she's disgusted when they say her name. She doesn't have an issue with her friends or family, but she feels unsteady. When people ask her what her future plans are, she never knows what to say. She feels like her future is covered in a fog.

However, there's one thing that makes Shizuku feel like herself. When she returns home that day, she finds waiting for her "Fūten no onī-san", or Fūnī for short. Fūnī shows her pictures of a small island called Aoshima. Shizuku narrates that Fūnī likes to travel Japan and overseas, and is looking for a place to belong. Shizuku feels better when she's with him and wonders if he's looking for a place to find his footing also. She feels like she can't tell him about her feelings, but just knowing more about him is enough for her.

Fūnī tells Shizuku that he wishes he could keep coming to her family's cafe forever. He asks if she'll inherit the place in the future. Shizuku says she doesn't know, and Fūnī invites her to search with him for a place they can spend their lives together. Shizuku is very happy to hear this, believing that at the very least she wouldn't be alone with him. However, one day she gets a phone call saying that a "Kasugai" was in an accident and that she was his only contact. Realizing that something happened to Fūnī, Shizuku wants to rush to his side. However, her parents refuse to help, pointing out they aren't even related. Shizuku says she doesn't want to be alone. Later, Kyubey appears before Shizuku and offers her a contract.

Shizuku wish is "I want to see him...! Take me to where he is right this instant!!" Shizuku suddenly appears in a hospital and sees Fūnī lying in a bed. Fūnī thinks it must be a dream, and is being shown what he wants to see in his final moments. Shizuku says it isn't a dream, and Fūnī says he can rest in peace. Shizuku begs him to open his eyes, saying she made a promise with him to find the place where they belong. Fūnī thanks Shizuku and dies. Shizuku calls his name and says he lied to her while begging not to be left alone. Shizuku narrates that lives seem long until a crisis shows that it's as fragile as paper. She doesn't know how long she'll live, but she'll find a place to belong.

Shizuku arrives at a beautiful place that she wanted to show Fūnī. However, it's not the place she's looking for. Shizuku narrates that when she became a magical girl, she received the power to "connect spaces". She can travel all over the world, though her power does have some sort of limitation. Shizuku has used her power to see villages and countries around the world, just like Fūnī did. However, she still hasn't found a place to belong, and thinks she has to do so before she dies.

Shizuku talks to an unknown figure, who pays her. The figure invites her to join her group, but Shizuku has no interest. When the figure leaves, Yachiyo Nanami appears and asks Shizuku who she is. Yachiyo is with Tsuruno Yui and Iroha Tamaki, who introduce themselves. Yachiyo asks what relationship Shizuku has to the magical girl she spoke to. Shizuku says she's being payed to connect places together, but doesn't know why or what the group's plans are. (It's implied the group is Wings of Magius.) Yachiyo says she shouldn't let people she doesn't know use her power, and asks what Shizuku would do if her powers cause a disaster. Shizuku says she needs the money to find the place where she belongs.

Iroha invites Shizuku to talk more at their house. When they arrive, Yachiyo says if she gets more people it will start feeling cramped. Felicia Mitsuki and Sana Futaba are waiting at the house to introduce themselves. Tsuruno invites Shizuku for dinner. Felicia and Tsuruno get into antics, which prompts Yachiyo to say it can be hard to relax. Shizuku says it's fine. At dinner, Iroha says that when she eats food with everyone it feels like she can find a place where she can belong. Shizuku finds the food is delicious.

Afterward, Iroha invites Shizuku to stay the night. Yachiyo says Shizuku's parents might be worried, but Shizuku says they won't be because they don't say anything to her anymore. Felicia and Tsuruno get into an argument over grapes that Sana accidentally ate. Iroha tries to play peacemaker, while Yachiyo apologizes for the girls' antics. Shizuku says it's like a family, and Yachiyo agrees. Yachiyo says that since they're magical girls, the only way to live is by coming together since they all share the same fate. Shizuku thinks Yachiyo means they will all die someday. Yachiyo says that Iroha must feel the same, since she invited Shizuku to their house. Shizuku says that the other girls have found their place to belong. Yachiyo invites Shizuku to stay as long as she wants. Shizuku wonders if this is what she was looking for.

Shizuku thinks that this house is where the other girls belong, but she realizes the place she belonged was with Fūnī. Shizuku starts crying, suddenly understanding the meaning of Fūnī's last words. The next day, she goes back to the unknown magical girl and does another job for them. Shizuku then asks what she's trying to do with her power. The other magical girl says Shizuku agreed to not ask questions. Shizuku says it's fine because she's terminating their agreement. She wonders if she can stay at Yachiyo's house and returns there.

When she arrives, Shizuku finds the house is empty. She looks around at the plates each girl has, the toothbrushes next to the bathroom sink, and a picture on top of a cabinet. She thinks those are the bonds the five girls formed over time, and the house is overflowing with care. Shizuku hears the girls return and overhears them in conversation. Shizuku realizes that the place where they belong isn't her own, and feels like if she increases the number by one it will make the house cramped. She quietly bids the girls goodbye and departs unseen.

It turns out Yachiyo got a cake for Shizuku and the girls were going to hold her a welcome party. The girls prepare and wait for Shizuku to arrive at the house, but she doesn't come. Yachiyo feels that Shizuku is in constant danger, as if she'll disappear if you take her eyes off her. She then announces that Shizuku might not be coming back. She admits she should have seen it coming. Shizuku returns to the unknown magical girl and asks for another assignment. When the magical girl asks why she came back, Shizuku says "their" picture was complete with five people. Shziuku claims she has to keep searching for the place where she belongs.

The magical girl has no idea what Shizuku is talking about, but is happy for her continued service. She says she'll contact Shizuku when the time comes. Shizuku mentally apologizes to Yachiyo. She thinks her actions will cause a disaster, but isn't prepared to take responsibility. She feels that even now she's walking on unstable ground, leaving her unprepared. She wonders if she'll find solid ground, the place where she belongs.


Costume Stories

Halloween Costume
Shizuku Halloween costume.png

Shizuku was visiting Ryo Midori and Ikumi Makino at Ikumi’s maid café. She had asked them to meet her there so she could go through Ryo’s laptop and see all the Halloween photos that Ryo took last year. Ayaka was too busy to research costumes for an event that she and Seika Kumi were doing and had asked Shizuku to do it as a favor. The kind of costumes that Ayaka was looking for was “something that’ll make them smile uncontrollably, clothes that’ll brighten the whole place up”. Ikumi naturally suggested they go with maid outfits since they always brighten up her café but Shizuku just stares at her. Putting on a pouting face at first, Ikumi grabs Shizuku by the arm and takes her to the back of house to try on a maid outfit. After awhile of trying on the outfit, Shizuku changes back into her regular clothes. As nice as they are, she thinks maid outfits would be too cute for the manzai sketch that Ayaka and Seika are going to do. Ryo gets a good laugh out of seeing Shizuku try to resist Ikumi and thought that Shizuku’s pose made for a good laugh. Hearing her talk about how the movement and pose in the photo were what was so funny, Shizuku asks Ryo to show her again the photo of the Halloween outfits that the Mitakihara Magical Girls were wearing. Shizuku points to two of the outfits and says they’re perfect. She can just imagine Ayaka and Seika wearing the outfits and brightening up the stage as they move around in them. Ryo is glad that Shizuku found something she liked and asked if they can come over that day and take a picture. Shizuku says they’re more than welcome to.

The day of the event arrives and Ayaka puts on her big event with Ryo and Ikumi making it to the show. Ayaka asks if they enjoyed the show as Ikumi politely tells her they did. Ryo asks if she can get their picture and both Shizuku and Ayaka pose for the shot. Ryo says she doesn’t know anything about comedy, but she does know the two of them have very happy faces.

Other Appearances

Shizuku appears in Madoka's side story. Madoka and Homura help her out when she uses up too much magic.

Shizuku appears in Mitama Yakumo's side story. Mitama and Ayaka are determining the next place she'll visit by throwing darts at a map.

She also appears as a relatively significant role in both Yuma Chitose's and Kirika Kure's side stories.

Powers and Abilities

Shizuku does possess the ability to teleport and to some degree can determine the location she can go to as long as it isn't too far from the place she was first located at before teleporting. The further the distance is however, the less likely it is Shizuku will be able to land on that exact spot. Her teleportation seems to also be utilised through the form of portals as she can link two areas together between them if she wishes to, allowing for ease of access. These portals can also be used by other magical girls and humans as her portals were utilised by the Wings Of The Magius at one point in time.

Shizuku can also use her teleportation ability within combat to confuse her enemy or to avoid attacks coming at her as she can attack enemies with her chakrams from multiple angles in a short span of time by using this ability. Her chakrams also can be thrown on their own to attack enemies at a further distance though this isn't always reliable.

When her soul gem turns fully black, she can call upon her doppel, Vayu which appears to have the ability to create strong, humid air currents and storms which leave Shizuku's foes in a withered, arid state. The doppel can also move at very high speeds once it gets itself going, allowing Shizuku to escape from danger if necessary but ultimately she doesn't find it reliable either because it is always very agile and can easily carry her off if she doesn't control it well enough.


Etymology

  • The characters of her last name mean "keep" (保) and "clear"(澄), respectively.
  • The character in her first name means "(water) drop" (雫).
  • Her doppel name, Vayu, is based on the Hindu god of the same name, god of the winds and breath frequently depicted riding a gazelle mount.

Trivia

  • Her illustrator is Sasagi Koushi
  • Shizuku's halloween outfit is the same as the one Mami wears in this promotional image.
  • Manzai is a traditional stand-up comedy act involving a duo - a tsukkomi (straight man) and boke (funny man). They tell jokes that involve misunderstandings, puns, and other odd gags that you often see Ayaka throw out.
  • Her doppel's nature, fūten, means the vagabond. This phrase is made famous by Tora-san the fūten (the vagabond Tora), the protagonist of Japanese comedy film series Otoko wa Tsurai yo. The "Tora" in his name means tiger, and he travels from place to place with only his small traveling suitcase. The design of the Doppel may be a reference to it.
    • Also, the actor who played him, Kiyoshi Atsumi, composed haiku poems with the pen name "風天 (fūten, the devata of wind)".
