"I'll do...Whatever you think is the right thing"

- Episode 14, after Mai atttempted suicide with her sword

Mai Kawasumi (川澄 舞 Kawasumi Mai?) is a girl with mysterious powers. These powers scare people away so it prevents her from making friends. When she met Yuichi he wasn't scared of her powers and they played together when they were 10-years old.

7 years pass and when they meet up again, Yuichi doesn't remember Mai right away, but he seems to be curious about Mai.

She has powers to brings things back to life and to heal injurys. She once used her powers to cure her mother.

Appearance
Mai has long black/blue hair with green eyes and she is mostly seen wearing her school uniform. She wears her hair up with a blue bow. She is usually seen with a sword because she feels weak without it.

When Mai was younger, she was short, so Yuichi gave her pink bunny ears. During the series however, she is statistically the tallest, and largest female character in the series. Her physical size is most likely due to her sword work and muscle build.

Personality
Mai is shy, mostly silent and only talks to her best friend Sayuri. Mai is shown to be a constant eater although she never gains weight. Mai also is not very good at the game Shiatori (Which is a Japanese game. The person who says a word ending with an N loses). In the Japanese original, Mai ends animal words often with "On" While in the English dub she ends words with "tion".

Mai is also a skilled swordswomen. She uses the sword to fend off "demons" that attack the school at night. It is later revealed the demons were really her powers.

She is very caring when it comes to her mother, Sayuri, and Yuichi. Her mother was once sick in the hospital. She cried and stayed near her and cured her with her powers. She once made a little zoo which was full with snow bunnies.

Career
She wishes to become a veterinarian. Her favorite animal is a bunny.

Future
It is mentioned at the end of the series that Mai is planning to become a Vet. It seemed clear since she also is an animal lover and often feeds a stray dog in town.

Sayuri
Sayuri is Mai's best friend. They act like sisters often. They eat lunch together and Mai sleeps over at Sayuri's house. Sayuri even defended Mai when she was being accused of breaking a window in the school. When Sayuri gets hurt, Mai blames herself since she has those powers. Sayuri is best friends with Mai because a dog was on school grounds and Sayuri saw Mai feeding the dog in the bushes.

Yuichi
Mai and Yuichi were childhood friends and when reuniting again after 7 years they didn't remember each other until later in the series. Yuichi is the one who is the boy who accepted her and her powers.
