Shiki appears only in the manga.

Appearance

Shiki is tall and has light brown hair and eyes with bangs sort of covering his eyes. Like Yuka, he keeps a youthful appearance and dons many costumes like her. Shiki also has a pierced ear. His age is probably the same age as Nodacchi.

Personality

Shiki's most defining trait is his undying devotion to Yuka Azumi. As he grew up in the academy Shiki felt no other purpose then being Hī-sama's inventional replacement as guardian of the academy. After meeting Yuka, Shiki found a purpose that is chosen by him, to always protect Yuka. Shiki will do what she wishes and follow what path she chooses without hesitation.

Other that, Shiki is a quiet person who keeps to himself and appears to be indifferent to everyone around him. Underneath it all there appears to be more to Shiki, willing to sacrifice his freedom and become the new Middle School Principal for the sake of Yuka and maybe the children. Although it more the former than the later as he did it only for Yuka's will and was considering leaving with those he wanted to protect while Z attacked the school.

He gives Yuka his and Hī-sama's Barrier Alice stones when she uses the warphole to leave to the outside world.

During graduation, Shiki disappears without a trace and is most likely looking for Yuka and is later seen in an unknown city. He finds Yuka and follows her. The two became criminals by attacking ESP clones. Shiki tells her of information he obtained from Kaoru that the Z organization's leader is an ESP clone. Shiki and Yuka then meet Z's boss after Yuka cuts her hair and decides this. When Yuka chooses not to become a member he respects this and reminds her that he tread any path she chooses. Shiki says he will protect Yuka and let himself be the one to get hurt.

Z Arc

Shiki along with Yuka and some other members of Z break into Gakuen Alice. He causes an explosion, which injured a few. Narumi points out on the tapes about Shiki's three Alices.

Later on, he is seen with Yuka and Ishimori trying to quickly return to headquarters to care for Ishimori's injuries.

Along with Mihara Kanbu Shiki waits in the big room for Natsume, Ruka, and Tsubasa. As the three are trapped Mihara orders him to test what their Alices are. Upon the arrival of, Mikan Sakura Mihara commands him to capture Ruka and Penguin, but it is actually a trap and the Shiki behind Ruka is an illusion. The real Shiki has captured Mikan, who is put into the hands of Mihara.

When Z's hideout starts self-destructing from Natsume's Fire Alice he leaves with Yuka, as Mihara shouts the word traitor at them.

High School Division Arc

Shiki shows the pictures of Luna to Yuka. He goes with Yuka to Gakuen Alice to take Mikan Sakura away from the school. During the ESP's suprise attack he and Hī-sama attempted to protect everyone with their barrier alice. He is later seen with the HSP who was injured by the ESP, protecting them with his barrier. Shiki says Hī-sama's name, hinting something. At the end of Chapter 132, Shiki had appeared in Hana Hime Den and saw Hii-sama was lying on the bed, unconscious. He was holding Kazumi Yukihira who was injured and unconscious, and mentioned Hī-sama's name. In the early story of Chapter 133, he was sitting next to Hii-sama, listening to her words as Kakitsubata and the other princesses accompany him.In chapter 135 it is revealed that Shiki's various Alices and because of Hii-sama weakening that he could get Yuka and Mikan outside the academy without the use of the key.

Shiki is there with Mikan as she uses her Insertion Alice to insert Natsume's Heal Alice into Yuka, but it is to late and Yuka is later pronounced dead. As the ESP and Goshima try to take Mikan away, he asks them to stop, while he leans down and stands up to cradle Yuka's body. Probably, for the first time ever Shiki shows anger, glaring and raising his voice at the ESP, saying he will never allow the ESP to have Yuka's body. Shortly after, the MSP's Barrier Alice loses power, causing Z's chance to attack. Shiki then offers the ESP an exchange. By accepting this contract Shiki will agree to be the new MSP in Hi-sama's place, Shiki also warns that he can't be captured with all the Alices Yuka have inserted and like Yuka intended he will take Mikan. His conditions are that, first there will be no aggression between the Middle School and High school division. Second, the HSP will be reinstated, all false charges will be acknowledged and his honor and rights restored. Third, that all punishments to Mikan or any other will in charge of him. Lastly, he will decide what happens to Yuka's body and no one should intervene. Shiki tells the ESP to choose soon and that the ESP has no choice, but to choose the path he has treaded. The ESP doesn't accepts his conditions leaving Shiki to threaten that he will become a "criminal" like the ESP said by letting Z takeover and take only Mikan and those who he wish to protect. He saves everyone with his Barrier Alice on Mikan's request and news spread that he is the new Middle School Principal, however he is sadden that he couldn't fulfill Yuka's wish to take Mikan away from the academy, because the ESP won't accept that one condition.

Alice

He has one natural alice, the Barrier Alice which he inherited from Hī-sama. His Barrier Alice is just as powerful as hers, if not more. . Shiki has three other alices that he got from Yuka, Teleportation alice, Illusion alice, and Explosion alice. His Barrier Alice is quite compatible, since Yuka's Stealing alice was able to put so many alices into his body; and stated by Tsubasa it took several times for Yuka to find a compatible stone for him. It is also stated that the most alices that anyone ever had was three.It was revealed that Shiki entered the academy using his Alices a huge problem for the ESP.

Relationships

Yuka Azumi

Main article- Yuka Azumi

Shiki is a relative of the middle school principal, Shiki's high compatibility with other Alices makes him the perfect partner for Yuka. Shiki develops romantic feelings for Yuka and holds her in high regard, though the latter does not share the same sentiments. However, their closeness to one another sparks rumors about them being engaged, much to Yuka's dismay. He's perceived as a cold person but only softens up when it comes to Yuka. Quite noble and fiercely loyal, Shiki is willing to do anything for Yuka, as seen when he sworn to stay by her side even though he will never be her 'special' person. In return, Yuka values the bond she shares with Shiki. Yuka's alices and Shiki's compatibility compliment one another, and the two are formidable foes during missions. While Shiki acts as her sword and shield, Yuka is usually the one to finish off opponents by weakening them with her Stealing Alice

Hī-sama

Main article- Hī-sama

Hī-sama is Shiki's distant relative, which is probably why she allows him in her presence and shows no disgust towards him like she does to other males. He inherited her powerful Barrier Alice and was the long waited successor to be the protecter of the school. Although Shiki always felt that this future position was not a path he chosen and he with a heavy heart accepted it long ago.

After meeting Yuka did he feel that he can tread his path and protect Yuka. Both Hī-sama and the HSP wished that Shiki and Yuka would escape their fates of being trapped in Gakuen Alice. Leading the two to break rules and sacfrice themselves so that they would be free.

Trivia

• Shiki along with Narumi and Yukihira create a love square for Yuka.
• He has the most alices seen so far in the story, four; the third being Sakurano, Yuka and Mikan (later on in the manga) who have their three alices naturally.
• In Chapter 111, when Yuka asked him not to get close to her, he showed Yuka her picture being affected by Narumi's Pheromone alice, causing her to drop her things accidentally. He probably has a blackmailing habit like Hotaru, but he used it only on Yuka to accept his request.
