Appearance Edit

She has short brown hair and brown eyes. She wears a shade of pink lipstick along with a short dress with the kanji for 'number' (号, gō), which comes from the word 'cipher' (暗号, angō) on the back of it, a white belt around her waist and a pair of low-heeled sandals.

Abilities Edit

Yurika is a skilled decoder, in fact the best out of Konohagakure.^[1]

Part II Edit

Kazekage Rescue Arc Edit

After being called to the Konoha Aviary by Natori, she decodes the message from Sunagakure reporting Gaara's kidnapping by Akatsuki. In the manga, Yurika told Tsunade herself about Gaara's kidnapping, while in the anime, she handed her the message to read it.

Trivia Edit

• The pronunciation of her name sounds like the word "eureka" which is an exclamation indicating sudden discovery.
