Sayuki's soul gem is an Orange rectangle located on her chest as an accessory, her weapon is a Microphone.

(Summary)

A magical girl with a rather peculiar passion... Japanese swords. When katanas, or anything else she's interested in, comes up in conversation there's no stopping her. She also tours as a local-idol for the historically rich Mizuna.

(Gannishikudoku Info)

The Doppel of duty. Its form is a shortsword. The master of this emotion is convinced that the excessive expectations and envy directed at her by others– that giant mass of selfish affection– are solely her responsibility to take on. This Doppel exists so that, when its master's heart eventually becomes too worn-down to fulfill that obligation, it can assist her with her one final task. All of this Doppel's power fundamentally exists for its master's sake alone, but because of its merciful disposition, it also selects one lucky companion to receive the privilege of departing alongside its master. It's very mistake-prone, and tends to accidentally send off only the companion, but that just adds to its charm.

(Side Story)

When Sayuki was a child, her parents brought her to an idol's performance. It became a trauma for her as the crowd went too wild and she was almost squeezed to death.

Nothing abnormal happens as she grows up in a happy family with loving parents. While her interest in katanas and their history created a gap between her and her classmates, they get along pretty well since they respected her love for katanas and disinterest for their more modern interests like TV, idols etc. However, Sayuki feels a little lonely since she lacks someone to share her interests with, and this feeling grows during a visit to the local art museum when she sees pairs of adults viewing the katanas like she is. The feeling grew stronger when she missed the opportunity to speak with a girl from her school who also seems interested in these katanas (Mayu Kozue).

Kyubey seized this opportunity and tried to contract her, but first used the morning to calm the poor girl down as she thought he was going to eat her, then had to explain to the girl until sunset that contracting with him allows one wish of hers to be granted at the price of fighting witches.

Sayuki only got the part about fighting evil witches to protect people, and is hesitant at first since she is not athletic, but is convinced by Kyubey that he will assist, magic will boost her, and only a chosen few can take up the task since she thinks it is a duty to protect people if she has the power.

However, Kyubey has to wait until night comes since the girl doesn't really have anything to wish for. She asks for suggestions, so Kyubey says some wish for money, but Sayuki thinks this is a bad idea since she would be able to take care of the katanas that she will buy if she has the money (she has a collection of katanas since collecting them is also a hobby), though Kyubey says some wishing to improve their situation strikes a chord. Thus, she wishes for a friend to share her joy, and the contract is sealed. Unfortunately, she was not able to meet Mayu again on her regular trips to the museum, though Kyubey assured her that he had granted her wish. One day, she is approached by a lady in a suit who introduces herself as an agent and asks if Sayuki is interested in becoming an idol.
