Shikyou is seen to be a cunning character who really values fate, disliking anyone who dares try and disrupt it, hence her hatred against Emi. She also seems to lie a lot to get things to go her way and for Akari to trust her. She is also seemingly the reason for why the Oborodzuka clan was cursed because she failed to save Tsukuyomi. Not to mention that it seems that she has some morals, as views humans taking away lives as a “serious sin”, and punishes Mai for it.
