* BaitAndSwitchSentiment: In Chapter 73, Shiemi tells Rin that she likes him and Yukio. To Rin's surprise, Shiemi denies it when asked if she has a crush on Yukio as she meant she likes them both as friends. [[spoiler:Although, Shiemi soon realizes that Rin is telling her he likes her romantically.]]



* LoveYouAndEverybody: In Chapter 73, Shiemi tells Rin that she likes him and Yukio. To Rin's surprise, Shiemi denies it when asked if she has a crush on Yukio as she meant she likes them both as friends. [[spoiler:Although, Shiemi soon realizes that Rin is telling her he likes her romantically.]]



* MasterOfTheMixedMessage: Rin is convinced Shiemi has a crush on Yukio, but it's a bit difficult to tell the true nature of her feelings because she's kind and sweet to everyone, openly says [[LoveYouAndEverybody she likes all her friends]] and gets easily embarrassed in general. In Chapter 73, Shiemi makes clear her feelings for Yukio are merely admiration and she doesn't feel romantic love for anyone, which comes as a shock for Rin.

* AllForNothing: She's been living the last five years of her life attempting to protect her younger sister Tsukumo from Illuminati and their human experiments. She goes so far as to agree to become the new Nine-Tailed Fox's host because they will use Tsukumo if she doesn't. The cram school students save Izumo, but her efforts were ultimately in vain, because Tsukumo was under the protection of True Cross all along, and when Izumo finally goes to visit Tsukumo, the latter doesn't even remember who she is (justified, since she was three the last they were together). So, for all the trouble Izumo went through, she gained absolutely nothing she was fighting for and loses what few family ties she thought she had left, leaving her unable to do anything but cry over the unfairness of it all to Shiemi.

* RefusedReunion: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. After being imprisoned by Illuminati, Izumo was separated from her younger sister Tsukumo for years. When Izumo learns that Tsukumo is now Nemu's adopted cousin, she goes to visit Tsukumo, but doesn't introduce herself because Tsukumo doesn't even remember who she is (justified, since she was three the last they were together). Instead of telling her they're sisters, Izumo gives up on truly reuniting with Tsukumo and just gives back the fox doll Tsukumo had when she was a baby as a symbol of breaking all ties with her.

Only child and heir The daughter of the Head Priest owner of the Myoo Dharani sect, which got branded as a "Cursed Temple" due Exorcist Supply Shop (Futsumaya) who loves plants. Good-natured and sweet. Demonstrates extensive knowledge of plants. Used to being be seen only in a victim of the Blue Night. Ryuji is working kimono and still has a tendency to acquire wear them. The LoveInterest for both Aria Yukio and Dragoon Meister. He also wants to kill Satan, mainly out of a desire to restore his family's temple. He's Rin. Also, quickly takes a major hot head leap in badass and struggles often to understand others, though he's working hard to overcome his weaknesses.becomes the second strongest member of the team after ''[[AntiAntiChrist Rin]]''.


Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalWimp: Because the anime cut off before she received her CharacterDevelopment that allowed her to [[TookALevelInBadass take a level in badass]], she doesn't have as many moments to shine.
* AndIMustScream: Chapter 83 retroactively reveals [[spoiler: the entire incident where the larvae controlled her so Amaimon could provoke Rin into a fight during the progression exam was this for her.]]
%%* ApologisesALot
* BadassAdorable: Not only is Shiemi a very cute and sweet girl with an equally adorable companion, but they are also the most effective tamer/demon team of the group and the most versatile members period being able to cover healing, defense and offense equally well.
* BarrierWarrior: She uses Niichan to grow a tree barrier to hold back a Naberius during the Page exam, and again to protect Bon from the portrait demons in the Seven Mysteries Arc. [[spoiler: Summons a forest to protect herself and the Exwires from getting incinerated by Rin's demon side.]]
* BelatedLoveEpiphany: In Chapter 99.2, [[spoiler:seeing Rin being taken over by his demon side made Shiemi realize how terrified she is of the possibility of losing him forever. With some help from Izumo, Shiemi fully understands she has fallen for Rin. This makes her break down in tears because she thinks it's "too late" to let him know how she feels now that the Grigori Sedes is going to take her away.]]
* BigEater: Is the only one during the camping trip to ask for seconds and spends the day looking around Kyoto mostly eating various things (and even requests only to be able to eat food at the start!).
* BookDumb: Shiemi is very knowledgeable about plants, yet she scores poorly in her first test of Anti-Demon Pharmacology because she wrote down the nicknames she uses for plants in the answers. Once she learns the official names of plants, she does just fine in class.
* BrokenTears: In her debut chapter, she cries over her grandmother's death that she felt at fault for.
* BustContrastDuo: Shiemi has big breasts to contrast Izumo's flat chest.
* CaringGardener: She's the trope image. Ever since she was a young child, Shiemi loved gardening. While Shiemi is a sweet girl, she's also painfully shy and never ventures out of her grandmother's garden until Rin and Yukio intervene. She becomes an Exwire, but still loves plant life and her knowledge in gardening can be useful on occasion.
* ChasteHero: Bewildered by romance and love. Initially says she's "too young" for romance. Izumo gives her shoujo manga to help her understand romance after Rin asks her out. [[spoiler: Though she turns down Rin because she wants to work on herself, she later realizes that she loves Rin but now says it's "too late".]]
* CloudCuckooLander: Nicknames plants and other things (like calling a jacuzzi "pink awa awa") and tends to fall under ComicallyMissingThePoint more than once.
* CombatMedic: She's the only one in the main group capable of healing and utilizes this skill multiple times. She can also kick some serious ass.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: When Izumo laments that she can't believe she's friends with someone like Shiemi, who's "as shameless as a weed", [[InsultBackfire she thinks it's a pep talk]] and vows to become "as strong as a weed".
* CluelessDudeMagnet: She has no idea that she has many male admirers.
* CuteClumsyGirl: Early on she tripped multiple times. Since changing away from her kimono for exorcist duties, this has changed.
* DamselInDistress: During her first appearance she was possessed and needed saving, at least partially from her own misplaced guilt. [[TookALevelInBadass This doesn't happen again]] ([[DistressBall barring the incident with Amaimon]]).
* EarthyBarefootCharacter: When we first meet her, she is seen gardening barefoot and getting her feet - and rather elaborate kimono - quite dirty. She apparently likes doing it that way since her childhood, although she wears shoes otherwise.
* ElementalEyeColors: Her green eyes reflect her nature motif and she has access to GreenThumb power through her Greenman {{Familiar}}.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: The growth of her hair coincides with her development into a badass PluckyGirl.
* ExtremeDoormat: In the beginning, she let Izumo boss her around because of her belief that doing lots of stuff without expecting thanks is how friends treat friends. She grew out of it.
* FanGirl: Of Yukio. Heart-eyes and everything. She slowly gets over it though still admires him.
* FirstFriend: She's the first in the cram school who meets and befriends Rin.
* FlowersOfNature: After she grows her hair out of its bob, she uses flower based hairclips to keep her bangs out of her face. It's natural as she loves flowers, being an expert at gardening. Also, her {{Familiar}} is a small Greenman demon that can grow plants from his body.
* {{Foil}}: To Izumo since while both are tamers but she is friendly and humble, as oppossed to Izumo's abrasive and proud personality. Even their character designs and hair/eye colors are opposite of each other.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: Mostly towards any plants, though demons work too.
* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Very girly and sweet, loves flowers, but has no trouble getting dirty and is a BigEater. Not to mention is the strongest of the group after Rin.
* HairAntennae: That almost make her look like a bug.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Unlike Ryuji, (the only other Blonde - though dyed - of the main cast) hers is pure gold and pure kindness.
* HeadTurningBeauty: The guys are [[JawDrop utterly gobsmacked]] when they see her wearing something other than her modest, concealing kimono.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Called herself useless alot when she didn't have her familiar.
* HiddenBuxom: Her kimono hid her figure considerably, as seen when she first appears wearing her school uniform. It's complete with {{Gainaxing}}.
* {{Hikikomori}}: At first, she stayed in her garden all day. This was before Rin reminded her of her interest in seeing more of the world.
* HomeschooledKids: Because of her shyness, she was homeschooled until she decided to attend True Cross Academy to learn to make more friends.
* IAmWho: There are several hints throughout the manga that there is a secret to Shiemi's identity and powers that she doesn't know herself. [[spoiler:Apparently, being revealed some of it is so bad that she decides to quit being an exorcist.]]
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: Her main motivation is to make friends.
* IllGirl: As a result of DemonicPossession, her legs were weak.
* InnocentFlowerGirl: She's still kind and she still has plenty of knowledge on plants, flowers and the like. She also lives at a herbs/plant shop.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Mainly towards Rin; Shiemi's lack of social skills mixed with Rin's lack of social skills along with her ignorance to his situation and feelings causes this. She's gotten better since the Kyoto arc when she acknowledged her shortcomings there.
* LethalChef: Subverted. The sandwiches she made in Chapter 50 were basically just some herbs between bread and even Yukio couldn't pretend they tasted good, but [[spoiler: it's later revealed that these herbs were what kept the group from getting addicted to the Inari food like all the tourists.]]
* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: The sweet and naive Light Feminine to Izumo's cynical and aloof Dark Feminine.
* LivingEmotionalCrutch: To Yukio. Chapter 44 reveals that being with Shiemi is the only time he feels at peace.
* LoveYouAndEverybody: In Chapter 73, Shiemi tells Rin that she likes him and Yukio. To Rin's surprise, Shiemi denies it when asked if she has a crush on Yukio as she meant she likes them both as friends. [[spoiler:Although, Shiemi soon realizes that Rin is telling her he likes her romantically.]]
* LovingAShadow: She used to believe that Yukio was perfect and has always admired him for it, but after witnessing an argument between him and Rin she realizes that that's not the case.
* LuminescentBlush: Blushes in almost every panel she's in.
* MasterOfTheMixedMessage: Rin is convinced Shiemi has a crush on Yukio, but it's a bit difficult to tell the true nature of her feelings because she's kind and sweet to everyone, openly says [[LoveYouAndEverybody she likes all her friends]] and gets easily embarrassed in general. In Chapter 73, Shiemi makes clear her feelings for Yukio are merely admiration and she doesn't feel romantic love for anyone, which comes as a shock for Rin.
* NiceGirl: One of the friendliest members of the cast.
* TheNicknamer: With herbs and other plants. She once failed a test because she didn't use their real names.
* NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: Shiemi often ends up too close for comfort, much to Rin's confusion and Izumo's chagrin.
* NoSocialSkills: In the beginning, she has little to no social experience because of her sheltered upbringing. As a result, she repeatedly fails in trying to properly befriend Izumo. She finally suceeds in Chapter 32.
* ObliviousToLove: She genuinely doesn't notice all the {{love triangle}}s that involve her. Justified by the fact she was born very sickly and wasn't allowed to go outside much. Then her grandmother died and she became obsessed with caring for her garden.
* PluckyGirl: As part of her character development. She strives to be as determined "as a weed" and tries not to let anything keep her spirits down for too long.
* ThePollyanna: Not even the AlphaBitch can upset her.
* ProneToTears: She tends to tear up easily over sad things (generally involving Rin or Izumo).
* SecretLegacy: [[spoiler:Shiemi is secretly a descendant of Shemihaza, Emperor of Creation. Both her mother and grandmother have been members of the Grigori.]]
* SheCleansUpNicely: She's cute in general, but when all dressed up in her formal kimono she's stunning.
* ShrinkingViolet: At first, she was very shy and withdrawn. She grows out of it and even before she did, she shows signs in her debut chapter of being more outgoing than her shyness first allows.
* SilkHidingSteel: Shown when she completely [[WhatTheHellHero explodes at Rin and Yukio]] when they start arguing infront of her. They were both shocked.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Even though she's slow to realize it, Shiemi is attracted to the best qualities of Rin's personality.
* SquishyWizard: Without her familiar, she's pretty defenseless.
* SummonMagic: She's able to summon a baby Green Man with no training, something that surprises everyone.
* TaremeEyes: To emphasize her sweet, passive personality.
* TookALevelInBadass: She goes from a ShrinkingViolet barely able to go to school without shaking uncontrollably to a PluckyGirl, who, with her powerful familiar, is able to fight with the best of them.
* TraumaButton: After the experience of being taken over by the Chuchi larvae, meeting Amaimon again brings back some very bad memories for Shiemi.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Later on with Izumo, though the vitriol really only applies to Izumo because Shiemi is endlessly friendly.
* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: Shiemi does understand familial love, but she has yet to grasp the concept of romantic love. When Rin asks her to be his girlfriend, Shiemi questions what is the difference between liking someone as a friend and as a lover. Izumo tries to help her figure it out by making her read tons of {{Shoujo}} manga.
* WhatTheHellHero: Does this to herself in Das Stärkste Gefängis when she realizes that she was so focused on her own issues that she didn't think about how Rin felt.
