[[caption-width-right:1000:some caption text]]

* AlliterativeName: '''Yume'''mi '''Yume'''mite

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: She's more insane and unpredictable than evil, but Yumeko has [[spoiler:a sister which she's taken well care of with her own funds]], and genuinely considers Suzui (and later Mary) a friend, even inviting him to hang out at a sweets buffet. Implying Suzui is a slave and not a friend to her is one of the few ways to tick her off that doesn't involve her risk addiction BlueAndOrangeMorality. That said, it's also pretty clear that her idea of friendship is still skewed in certain ways, [[spoiler:as seen in how she goads Sumeragi into betting her very life during the gamble with Manyuda.]]

* BigSisterInstinct: Shows this towards Yumeko during the [[spoiler: dice game from Chapter 100 as she vows to defeat her aunt Tsugiko and prevent the latter from adopting Yumeko.]]
* CoolBigSis: A cross between this and TeamMom as Kabura mentions that Souko acted more like a mom to Yumeko in the flashback chapters from the past.
* DrivenToMadness: She's hospitalized after [[spoiler: Kabura manipulates both Souko and her aunt Tsugiko into pretty much handing Yumeko to her, causing poor Souko to lose her sanity]].

* GoMadFromTheRevelation: The reason for Souko losing her mind is [[spoiler: losing Yumeko to Kabura during the Dice Gamble of Jabami family dispute]].
* HeroicBSOD: Souko [[spoiler: goes through a very nasty one in chapter 101 and 102 when her aunt Tsugiko challenges her for the title of head of the Jabami family, revealing that she sold everything she could (including the snake-eye stone of the family) and claims to have killed Souko and Yumeko's parents.]]
** However, [[spoiler: she gets an even worse one after the gamble which lead to Kabura adopting Yumeko and not allowing the sisters to meet ever again. This is what finally breaks Souko and leads to her current state in the main story.]]

* NoNameGiven: Though her family name is of course Jabami, her given name is never revealed until chapter 96, [[spoiler: her name is Souko]].

* StrongFamilyResemblance: [[spoiler: She looks unusually similar to both Yumeko and their mother, having the same hairstyle]].

Yumeko and Souko's aunt and the acting head of the Jabami family after the death of their parents in the past.

* GoneHorriblyWrong: Tsugiko's desire to [[spoiler: free her two nieces from the traditions of the Momobami clan leads to Kabura adopting Yumeko into the Tsuibami family and for both Souko and Tsugiko to be expelled from the clan]].
* {{Irony}}: Her desire for the [[spoiler: Jabami family not to be destroyed by the Momobami clan traditions unfortunately leads exactly to its destruction, as the gamble for the position for Jabami family head leads to Kabura adopting Yumeko and raising her to become the gambler in the present and the expulsion of Souko and Tsugiko from the clan.]]

* SlasherSmile: [[spoiler: Shows this in the flashback chapters 101 and 102 during the dice game against her niece Souko, goading her to keep playing or Tsugiko would win the match and win both the position as leader of the Jabamis and adopt Yumeko.]]
** Chapter 103 reveals that [[spoiler: this was all an act, she felt she had to stop Souko from becoming an insane gambler like her mother was.]]

** Chapter 103 reveals that [[spoiler: she actually did not kill the parents, but claims to have done so for the good of the family as the growing madness regarding gambling would have destroyed the family; although she considers herself responsible though because she framed her sister for cheating in attempt to stop her gambling but it's implied that led to the gambling den killing her sister and her husband.]]

'''Portrayed by:''' Minami Hamabe

* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler:Hopes to become this by aiding Jabami against Miyo & Miri in the 9 Nim game, which succeeds as it enables Jabami (and later Mary when Jabami is poisoned) to use his cards as an advantage against both of them.]]

* {{Pride}}: [[spoiler: Her recap chapter before her battle against Jabami in the Tournament Arc shows her reasoning to competiting against Yuriko, she simply couldn't stand everybody mocking her after she lost to Yumeko]].

* CannotSpitItOut: While it has been [[DownplayedTrope downplayed]] so far, there's been scattered hints that Mary has a crush on Suzui. At the beginning of the series she got upset that Suzui was assigned to show Jabami around the school. Later on in the story when Jabami asks if Mary would be friends with her and Suzui, she first looks over to Suzui to read his expression before looking away blushing.

* ReplacementGoldfish: Tries to make herself into one for [[spoiler:Yumeko in place of Souko after taking guardianship of her, as she realizes Souko is/was the one with the most influence on Yumeko as both her [[CoolBigSis older sister]] and [[TeamMom surrogate mother]]. Emphasis on ''tries'' though, because no matter what she does it becomes clear she'll never be able to replace Souko in any capacity or have a geniune bond with Yumeko at all. This is exemplified in a scene where she asks Yumeko to call her "big sis" like she did with Souko, only for Yumeko to stay silent and stare at her pointedly]]. Considering Yumeko still visits her sister and Kabura is nowhere in the picture, both her [[spoiler:taking Yumeko away from her sister and attempt at replacing Souko seem to have completely failed]].
