Personality
Aoi is described as being very quiet, polite and reserved on first sight. However, as a Charisma Duelist, Aoi becomes very active in LINK VRAINS. As Blue Angel, her personality is very bubbly and she is a smiling idol with a cheerful demeanor. She is very obedient to her brother-in-law, Akira, but also wants to prove herself and is willing to show him that she can handle something on her own. She is very distrustful of others, as most people only approach her for her connections to SOL Technologies.

Etymology
"Aoi" (葵) means "hollyhock", a plant associated with abundance and great fortune and was also the emblem of the Tokugawa family. "Aoi" may also be derived from (青い), a Japanese word for Blue, reflected by her alias, "Blue Angel." The characters that form "Zaizen" (財前) can be translated as "before wealth".

Abilities
In LINK VRAINS as Blue Angel she can summon and create a blue energy whip.

Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS
Aoi first appeared as Blue Angel and was about to face a Duelist in LINK VRAINS. Before she was able to begin the Duel, an unnamed Knight of Hanoi attacked. She ran away in fear, and was about to be attacked by "Cracking Dragon", although Playmaker saved her. She then watched the Duel between Playmaker and the Knight, and when Playmaker fell from his D-Board, she returned her debt to him by throwing him back his D-Board with an energy whip she summoned. After Playmaker defeated the Knight she and Go Onizuka approached him and challenged him to a duel. He refused their challenge, claiming that he had no interest in either of them and left, much to their dismay.

Akira Zaizen
Aoi and Akira are in-laws. He appears to not care about Aoi that much, whereas Aoi is shown to have a big brother complex and idolizes him. Akira is aware that she is Blue Angel and Aoi wants to admit to him that she Duels.

Yusaku Fujiki (Playmaker)
Aoi and Yusaku are classmates, but only Yusaku is aware of her alter-ego. As "Blue Angel", Aoi is shown to develop an interest in Yusaku's alter-ego, "Playmaker", after he saved her from a "Cracking Dragon". She is shown to be grateful to "Playmaker" for saving her, and saved him in return after he fell from his D-Board. She also has a desire to defeat him in a duel to prove herself.

Deck
Aoi uses a "Trickstar" Deck that incorporates Link Summoning.
