Summary
A Magical Girl who has arrived in Kamihama as a Puella Care (Traveling Coordinator) in a supporting role. She is improving her skills as an Adjustor while studying at home without going to school. She continues to strive forward and has a friendly personality with a good reputation, but she often depends on her numerous relatives due to her age.
Doppel Description
The Doppel of Nomadicism. Its form is a cookie. The master of this emotion is anguished by the sight of her Doppel innocently playing without a mote of hesitation, as she feels that it is both a symbol of freedom and of guilt to her. This Doppel acts out of pure instinct as it freely floats and drifts around. Everything it does– yelling loudly, eating food, wrapping itself in lively colors– it does simply for its own enjoyment. No matter who it causes sorrow or pain to, it remains unaffected by this world’s concept of sin. Perhaps because it seems like an unblemished child at first glance, it gives off the impression of a pitiful being that can’t grow up, so the older its victims are, the more likely it is for sadness to take precedent over their terror.

The following is a summary posted on 4chan's /pmmm/ general Sudachi was a loner in class who liked to avoid trouble. Then one day, her teachers' former classmate who was a victim of bullying rushed into class and took them hostage with a gun and knife. After torturing the teacher, he planned to escape, asking for a hostage to go with him. Since she had no friends, the whole class except the teacher, pushed Sudachi forward as the hostage with even the criminal noting they don't care if she were to die. The fearful Sudachi wonders why she was chosen and not any of the others and that she never caused trouble. Kyubey chose this time to ask her for a contract. Out of anger and fear, Sudachi wished that only she be rescued. Kyubey informs Sudachi that he can grant ANY wish and asks her to think twice: Is this really her wish? Since the guy is advancing towards her with a gun and combined with her initial anger, she says yes and Kyubey grants the wish. Thanks to Kyubey's interference, the criminal suddenly claims to feel a kindred soul in Sudachi. She is like him, being outcast by everyone in class. So, he will spare her and only her, killing the rest of the class after cursing them to bear their sins to hell. It was too much for Sudachi and the experience along with her regrets gave her PTSD, making her unable to speak from then on. After this Livia invited her along to Kamihama where their work, which will bring about even more good even though it might cause casualties, could give them salvation. Thus, Sudachi tags along. There she met and befriended Mikage Yakumo who has overcome her own demons as a result of being Mitama's sister. Mikage still loves her all the same despite knowing the less glorious parts of her sister. She extends her hand towards Sudachi, who is reluctant to believe that she can have salvation. Mikage claims that she is giving her the benefit of the doubt, and this is after learning the truth. Sudachi is touched by this, and Mikage became her first real friend in Kamihama, believing in her eventual redemption. |
Costume Stories
On the week before Christmas, Puella Care hosted a special event, where they dressed up and offered free coordinations. For Sudachi, one particular experience stuck out the most from the campaign. While Yozuru was serving Akira, Sudachi tended to Emiri. The coordination went quick and smoothly, and an ecstatic Emiri begins to make conversation with Sudachi, where surprisingly, she seems to understand her responses. Emiri soon twists up Sudachi’s name into ‘Sudacheru’, her new nickname. Their pleasant conversation ranges from their similar age, their outfits, and how they were inspired by the three wise men.
On the way back home, Yozuru points out that Sudachi was unusually happy with Emiri, but despite her initial suspicions, Sudachi confirmed that she never used her telepathy to begin with. The two wonder if a potential ability that would allow Emiri to understand all the ‘fumu’s was involved. Sudachi acknowledges it as strange, and thinks that if she ever asked Emiri how she knew, she would just shrug it off as just a feeling.Appearances

Powers and Abilities
In Chapter 2 of Magia Record's 2nd arc, Sudachi is seen taking an injured Shizuka Tokime from some mountains all the way to Livia Medeiros's Puella Care caravan, implying that in addition to her innate wish-given destructive magic, she has a form of teleportation magic.
Etymology
- The characters of her last name mean "assistant" or "help" (佐) and "harmony/peace" (和) respectively.
- The characters of her first name mean "moon" (月), "exit" (出), and "village" (里) respectively.
- Sudachi's given name is also the name of a sour Japanese citrus fruit, and her surname is a homonym of the Japanese pronunciation of the English word "sour". Together, her name can be read as "sour fruit" or "sour sour fruit", contrasting her candy-themed Doppel.
Trivia
- Sudachi made her wish to survive a school shooting after her classmates offered her as a hostage to the shooter; the implicit meaning seems to be wanting the rest of her classmates to die in it.
- Following this trauma, she suffers from aphasia and only speaks unintelligibly through the game. When speaking to Yozuru or Mikage, she uses her telepathy to communicate.
- Her voice lines, however, are translated when checking them. It is possible to make her talk normally by buying a special item in shop.
- She can't enter the School building because of psychological trauma, according to Nayuta's MGS.
- Her doppel is not designed by the Inu Curry team, but by Akio Watanabe.
- Her Doppel resembles the nursery rhyme "The Gingerbread Man." Which it means that the Gingerbread Man was being hunted down in a way to escape the people and the animals chasing down. As the line says, "Run, run as fast as you can, you can't catch me I'm the Gingerbread Man!" is a metaphor for being hunted down so that she want to escape.
- Her illustrator is Akio Watanabe, who also illustrated the Monogatari crossover characters.
- Her design may be slightly based on vampires, mostly her cape and the part of her hair, which resembles bat ears.
- Sudachi, along with the other coordinators, have a magician aesthetic. Sudachi specifically due to her ears resembling a rabbit pulled from a hat, with her cape resembling the top hat, and Sudachi herself being the rabbit.

We like the same things, and she gets what I’m thinking.
Just talking to her makes my heart feel fluffy and warm. I could bounce with how fun this feels. This must have been what my fallen classmates felt. | 同じようなものが好きで、どこか考えてることが通じ合って
しゃべっているだけでホワッと心が温かくなって 思わず跳ねちゃいそうな楽しい気持ちになる これが倒れていったクラスメイトが感じていたものなんだ |

“There are no customers right now, so let’s all take a break together.”
“Then, you can boil the tea. I’ve already arranged some snacks.“ “Fumuu! Fummuufumunmu!” “Don’t overdo it and eat too many, Sudachi. Or else you won’t have any room for dinner.” | 「お客さんもおらんし、ここはみんなそろって休憩にしよか」
「では、お茶を煎れますね。お茶菓子も用意しましたので」 「ふむー！ふっむーふむんむ！」 「食べ過ぎたらあかんで月出里。ご飯食べれんくなるからな」 |

**Unique to Sudachi Sawa** The classroom, the classmates, their expressions were all pure white. There was only the sound of the ongoing lesson, and the robotic movement of pencils. But now, lit by the sunset, this scene flooded in red is scorched into memory. Because one word made all the difference. | 教室もクラスメイトも、みんなのっぺりとして真っ白だった
あるのは授業を進める声と、鉛筆を走らせる無機質な音だけ だけど今は夕日に照らされて、赤潮に満ちた景色が焼き付いている たった一言が巨大な筆を走らせたから |

"If you wanna protect yourself from foes, us folks at Puella Care will lend you our strength.
But since we're absolutely neutral, we might Adjust your enemies too... Well, if that happens, you can just drop by for another Adjustment yourself. Might seem like a game of cat and mouse, but that's already the sorta place the world is." | 「敵から身を護りたいんやったら、私らピュエラケアが力を授けたるで。
ただ絶対に中立である以上は、アンタの敵も調整するかもしれへん。 まぁ、その時はまた私らが調整して力をあげるわ。 イタチごっこやって思うやろうけど、そもそも世界がそんなもんやろ」 |

"Yahoo! We’re so high up! This is so cool!"
"Mikage-san, are you that excited...? Isn’t that dangerous?" "Hmm? Nayutan, are you scared? Mee is totally fine... Wow!" "Oh, you really should listen to your elders more." | 「わーい！高い！きもちー！ぜんそくぜんしーん！」

**Unique to Sudachi Sawa (Valentine ver.)** When we met, we were downcast in despair... that's all there were of the three of us. Their looks, ages, personalities, and the chocolates they prepared were all different from each other And yet, feeling the love that was firmly put into them I realize how miraculous this encounter was. | 出会ったとき、絶望の中で俯いていた…それだけの３人
見た目、年齢、性格、そして用意したチョコ、すべてがバラバラ それでもしっかりと込められた愛情を感じながら この出会いがいかに奇跡だったかを実感する |

"Woah woah woah! Oh oh oh, it flew away~! Sorry~"

「ふっむむふむむん、ふんむーむ！ （とっても甘くて、おいしいよ！）」 「あ、味見してる！結果オーライって言うんだっけ？」 |

I wanted to blame someone else and run away.
I wanted to be sympathetic and be protected by someone strong. But we struggled just a little bit, and that's why we are where we are today. This gentle light pried open the door of possibility. | 誰かのせいにして、逃げてしまいたかった
同情を誘って、強い人に守られたかった でも、ほんの少しあがいてみたから、今の私たちがある この優しい光は可能性の扉をこじ開けた |

The mission given was to promote the adjuster's shop.
Even if you can't use words, information can be conveyed with text. Even if you can't use words, your thoughts can be conveyed by looking into their eyes The sincerity of spreading hope is born of handwritten handouts. | 与えられたミッションは、調整屋の宣伝
言葉が使えなくても、文字があれば情報は伝わる 言葉が使えなくても、目を見れば想いは伝わる 拡散希望の真心は、手書きの手渡しで生まれる |
