Appearance[]

Personality[]

Jun is an independent young woman willing to fight for Kenzo and Tetsuya's sake. She became very close with Tetsuya after falling in love with one of the clones and seeing them die one after the other brought about great agony every time. Because of this, Jun is more than willing to shake Tetsuya to the reality of the situation if he becomes too reckless
