TEMPERMENT: Matoko can be a very sweet and friendly girl, but she also has the Hibiki/Kuonji temper. While she's not likely to hold long-term grudges like they did, and would rather forgive and forget, she can be a bit hot-headed. She's had a relatively happy life and that's made a nominally cheerful person, but even the nicest person can be vicious when she needs to be. She's also a bit... dense. It's not to say she's not intelligent, she is, but she has a tendency to "block out" things she'd rather not know.

BRIEF HISTORY: Growing up with two brothers constantly teasing her wasn't fun for Matoko, and even now she's not immune to a well-placed jab from either of them. While she and Kantoro have always been close on a certain level (as twin siblings should be), she and Kenji never seemed to get along. They were constantly fighting... when he's around, that is.

She's worked in her mother's restaurant for years and spends her spare time indulging her artistic hobbies. She's trained in martial arts all her life like her brothers, but unlike them, she's never really had the drive to "be the best". She's content to let Kantoro be her Ryouga's "top student", even though she sometimes feels guilty for disappointing her father.

She's always been very close to "Uncle" Ranma and "Aunt" Akane, even getting trained some by Ranma when her parents couldn't.

MAIN GOAL: She misses the days when she and Kantoro were inseperable and has decided that enough is enough and she wants those days back. However, she has no idea where to start...
