Tori Meadows

Tori Meadows (Kotori Mizuki in the Japanese version) is a character in Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL. She is a friend of Yuma Tsukumo and she also knows Akari Tsukumo and Haru Tsukumo. Due to her unyielding personality, she tends to tease Yuma for his mistakes; despite this, she still cares for him and never leaves his side (evidenced by the fact that she is present at all his duels). She owns a D-Gazer which she uses to watch Yuma's Duels, and a D-Pad for use in school. In the manga, she thinks Astral is a ghost. In episode 19, she has an unnamed mother during Parent's Day.

Appearance
Tori is a 13 year old girl with green hair and hazel eyes. She wears a schoolgirl outfit with pink collar and skirt. When out of school, she wears a white t-shirt with yellow decal and a pink skirt.

Personality
Tori is a very cheerful and intelligent girl with the ability to manipulate computers, as demonstrated when Tokunosuke framed Yuma and she discovered the whole fiasco. She is protective and fiercely loyal to Yuma, as shown in episode 5 when she believed in him despite the fact that there was "undeniable evidence" against him and how she never laughed at Yuma when he challenged the impossible; she admires his unwavering will and determination of constantly challenging himself.

Despite the fact that Tori sometimes gets annoyed by Yuma's naivety and childish outbursts, she appears to harbor a deep crush on Yuma, evidenced by how she blushes and becomes slightly angered when Yuma talks about Cathy (as well as arguing with her over him) or when she smiles at Yuma's antics.

Tori is also shown to worry about Yuma's safety when hearing that the "Numbers" cards are dangerous. After Yuma start to give up hope when The Emperor's Key is stolen, Kotori is so worried about Yuma that she helps him get back to his senses by slapping him. This sense of worry increases greatly when she screams out Yuma's name in despair, thinking he didn't make it out of Kaito's hideout when it exploded. When he appeared, she cycled through being happy and annoyed, tears in her eyes the whole time.
