Kei Odagiri

Kei Odagiri is a secondary character in the Samurai Shodown series. She is the lover to Ukyo and is affectionately called, "Okei-dono" by him. In return, she addresses him as "Ukyo-sama". Due to her status as a high-class noblewoman and his terminal illness, Ukyo keeps his distance from her. Regardless, they still hold deep feelings for each other.
