%%* IncorruptiblePurePureness: And HOW.
%%* NiceGuy
* PosthumousCharacter: [[spoiler: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amakusa_Shir%C5%8D And we all know what happened with him]].]]
* [[spoiler: SexSlave: Became this to Naozumi, after being captured. According to Naozumi, Shirou never yielded to him: he first attempted to understand his "lord"'s broken psyche and then to [[PleaseIWillDoAnything use this to]] try helping both Naozumi ''and'' his fellow Christians... but when Naozumi realized that he was falling for Shirou, he was so shaken that he strangled the poor dude to death, and then threw his lifeless body into the sea.]]

* [[spoiler: DeathTrap - KillItWithWater: In chapter 29, Kichou and a woman named Yone were placed in [[DrowningPit a water prison.]] In Kichou's specific case, it's because Matsukura believes that she has slept with other men despite being his mistress -- with said man being Eiji (The most she did was kissing him and giving food to peasants behind Matsukura's back.)]]
* [[spoiler: DefiantCaptive: When Matsukura confronts her in the water prison, Kichou refuses the "adultery" accusations against her and tells him not to abuse the villagers anymore.]]
%%* [[spoiler: FallenPrincess]]
* HighClassCallGirl - TheMistress: She's referred to as "the prostitute of the castle" as despite her great beauty Kichou actually was an "aishou", a lord's lover in a lower rank than legal wives and prostitutes.
* HookerWithAHeartOfGold: She's actually a NiceGirl, when you get to know her.
%%* PimpedOutDress
%%* [[spoiler: RagsToRiches]]
* TheOjou: Sorta; looks and acts the part but her status is quite low indeed.
* [[spoiler: WhiteShirtOfDeath: Barely averted! Kichou is wearing a [[EtherealWhiteDress white robe]] when in the DrowningPit, but both she and her companion Yone are saved by Natsuki and her group.]]
* [[spoiler: UnkemptBeauty: She still looks quite pretty after she and Yone are rescued from the DrowningPit Matsukura threw them in.]]

* {{Expy}}: She plays the in-story role of [[spoiler: the real life pregnant peasant whose imprisonment ''kicked off the whole Shimabara rebellion''. Only that, in the story itself, Yone wasn't alone in there: Kichou was thrown in as well.]]
