Attitude Change Yuko's attitude toward her activities changed when Michael returned. she had been instructed to provide a safe haven for him when he returned. After his return, she relinquished that role, assuming he could do it for himself, and became much more active, becoming a protector (fighter, likes to kill, likes violence more ). It was Yuko’s decision to become more warrior and less diplomat since Michael’s arrival .

Yuko felt strange, having hardly worn her sword for so many decades and then to have been battle-ready constantly during the days with Michael.She shook her head, noticing how different she was feeling since embracing the less than diplomatic side of her. It was no longer an intellectual conversation with her friends, but rather it integrated into a new way of seeing herself and her role in the world.
