{{Nihongo|'''Yuuri Asuka'''|飛鳥 ユウリ|Asuka Yuuri}} is a character appearing in [[Puella Magi Kazumi Magica: The Innocent Malice]]. She appears only in flashbacks, having died before the beginning of the series. Her first appearance is in a single panel in Chapter 4 before appearing in an extended sequence in Chapter 5.  The [[Yuuri]] seen in other chapters of Kazumi Magica is in fact her friend [[Airi]], who has taken her appearance and identity.
 
Despite being deceased at the beginning of the series, she is important to Kazumi Magica's story. A Puella Magi, her wish was to cure the life-threatening illness of her friend Airi.
 
== Personality ==
Yuuri was kindhearted and caring, trying to help other people. She seemed to enjoy both cooking and eating, and was devoted to her friend Airi.
 
== History ==
{{spoilers|media=kazumi}}
 
Yuuri has so far only appeared in Kazumi Magica.
 
Yuuri is first seen visiting her sick friend Airi, who has been told she only has three months to live. When she asks Airi if she wants to continue living, Airi says that wants to live longer and eat delicious things with Yuuri. Yuuri then gives her a spoon, which she calls a good luck charm. She then leaves to secretly contract with [[Kyubey]] so she can wish for Yuuri to be cured - it's implied Kyubey had been in contact with her prior to this. She then sees Airi again when she learns that her illness has miraculously healed. Airi claims that the spoon cured her, and Yuuri doesn't try to correct her.
 
Once she became a Puella Magi, Yuuri fought witches and also cured the illnesses of other sick people. However, this put a strain on her Soul Gem.
 
Sometime later, Yuuri participates in a cooking contest for a restaurant. Airi gives her back the spoon, asking it to help Yuuri. Though Yuuri makes it to the final round, she dosen't appear, prompting Airi to go look for her.
 
In fact, Yuuri had encountered the [[Pleiades Saints]] and transformed into a witch right in front of them. As a witch she nearly attacked Airi, but was killed by the Pleiades Saints. When she dies, she drops the spoon Airi gave back to her.
 
Later Kyubey informs Airi about what happened to Yuuri, setting the events of Kazumi Magica in motion.
 
== Witch Form ==
Yuuri's witch form resembles a giant hypodermic needle, similar to her weapon as a Puella Magi.
 
== Powers, Weapons & Abilities ==
Yuuri's magical girl form was only seen briefly. However, her weapon was a giant multi-needled hypodermic needle. She also had healing powers, probably derived from her wish.
 
== Trivia ==
* Yuuri has a number of similarities to [[Madoka]] and [[Sayaka]]. Like Sayaka, she wished to heal another person and paid for it. Like Madoka, she selflessly tried to help others and drove someone that cared about her to set the events of the main story in motion.
 
== Speculation ==
* It is unlikely that Yuuri was a member of the Pleiades Saints, though she might have known of their existence.
