Appearance
Yoko has butterscotch yellow eyes and wavy, gold blond hair that reaches her mid back. She has fluffy and wavy bangs on the right side of her head.

As Cure Midday, her eye color turns brighter. Her hair grows into a hip-length princess updo, becoming buttermilk blond. She wears a cloud-shaped tiara.

Personality
While sometimes rude and mean, such as when she made fun of Asuka for being late for school, Yoko is a generally fun and friendly, and often apologizes after making witty comments. She actually feels empty, since she doesn't have passion for anything and can do anything without even putting effort. One of the few things Yoko truly enjoys is lying down in the midday sun, and also entertaining other people.

Most people consider her to be very aloof and lazy, which is a consequence of her being commonly bored. However, if someone messes with the things Yoko truly does love, she'll be fiercely protective of those. She starts to value her life even more after becoming a cure and making new friends.

Because of that, she is constantly willing to try something new. Whenever someone asked Yoko what her dream was, she never had an answer.
