SHIRATORI YUKINOJOE - utsukushiki no kemono
aka Yukki, Doro Ningyou (Mud Doll), Hime (Princess)
Image Color: YELLOW
Celebrates his birthday every 24th May, and very fiercely claims to be the same age as Show claims he is.
Blood Type A.
Birthplace: CHIBA (Kisarazu).

Every band needs their princess and who better to play that role if not the extravagant Yukki. Often taking up the role of Big Sister (Nee-chan), Yukki although genuinely bald with the exception of the trademark arrow carefully crafted atop his head, sports all sorts of wigs and costumes at diverse times morphing him into a beautiful woman, a classy cowboy, a malicious witch, a sexy police officer...and the list goes on. Almost feminine when when not behind the drums, Yukki displays flamboyant grace at dancing and acting.

Yukki also lends his voice to a few of Kishidan's songs and have recently provided lead vocals for the iyasaka! massuru ondo song released in the [Yume Miru Koro...] single. For his solo acts he usually will pose as a sharp tongued character either out to right the old-fashioned or to bust the bad with 'her' strength. We often see Yukki as being quite a "girl" when around the band and in their skits, either demanding for attention with his cute and quiet acts or filling up to his royal duties as the Kishidan princess by simply being loud in action and speech. 

Although the band may call him their Princess, he is definitely the one who always falls prey to the endless pranks Kishidan brews. Show for one has the tendency of emptying bottles of water onto the always unknowing head of Yukki's regardless of when. Show usually attacks when Yukki is either in deep sleep or is resting, breaking all peace. The worst thing is that nobody ever comes to the aid of Yukki in such circumstances but instead chooses to sit back and enjoy the spectacle. In one of their DVDs you would see Show and Hikaru bagging yet the unsuspecting Yukki with a gigantic garbage bag outside of their practice venue. Alternatively you can also preview it here*. Although the band seems to like to play tricks on Yukki, we know that it is only because they adore him to bits.

Yukki was in fact the one who left Kisarazu with Show to embark on new adventures in Tokyo searching for their goals in life. Yukki had always been playing the drums and even though at that time was a new face in Tokyo, quickly made friends with people in the indies scene and managed to land himself parts in countless of gigs with various bands. According to Show, Yukki was not a very good drummer back then but thanks to his charm, he got along very well with other bandmen. Show always felt inferior to Yukki when it came to making friends. Yukki's tip on making friends was simply to go up to a person who looked like he was in a band and ask for a demo tape. Show was skeptical of that but it sure worked wonders for Yukki. When Kishidan was formed, Yukki was still drumming with many different bands as a support member. Show realized that because of that Yukki was not able to concentrate on Kishidan and had one day asked Yukki to choose between him or the other bands. Obviously we know whom Yukki chose. ^ ^
