Yui Rio

Yui Rio is one of the female students that currently attends Akademi High School.

Appearance
Yui wears the default female school uniform, unless customized by the player.

Before the February 8th, 2016 Build, she had scarlet hair worn in a ponytail to her right. Her eyes were scarlet as well. Her bust size is 0.5, the smallest in the game.

As of the February 8th, 2016 Build, Yui has scarlet hair kept up in a short ponytail on the right with her bangs swept to her left in mini triangle shapes and her eyes are burgundy.

In the January 3rd, 2017 Build, she had Yandere-chan's hairstyle colored dark red. This was fixed in the January 4th, 2017 Build.

As of the January 16th, 2017 Build, Yui wears a red friendship bracelet on her right wrist.

As of the February 2nd, 2017 Build, Yui wears red stockings and panties.

Personality
Among the personas currently in the game, Yui is Evil. If she sees a corpse or witnesses a murder, she will wink and compliment Yandere-chan on her crime, however then run off in order to not be considered an accomplice. She will not talk to Yandere-chan the next day after seeing her commit murder. If the player has their phone aimed at her, she will become annoyed and cover her face. She cannot participate in physical fights against murderers.

It is possible that she does not care for the boundaries of others, as the reference picture of Yui is shown trying to grab Yuna Hina's rear. Druelbozo has explained that Yui is "Gettin' that booty". As well, she is shown stealing Mei Mio's glasses in a second reference image.

She's chosen to hang out with the popular crowd and join a club because she sees it as a form of "protection".

At 7:05 AM, Yui enters the school grounds. She walks to her locker at 7:10 AM and changes from her outdoor shoes to her indoor shoes.
