Description

Yuzuriha's primary weapons are kunai, which she is capable of throwing with excellent precision. On her waist, Yuzuriha carries around bamboo bottles of tonic for her ninjutsu that adds certain properties to it, such as poison, and a salve to help heal wounds. She also carried around a wakizashi but later discarded it after she changed her attire.

After they arrive to the village, Yuzuriha takes a bath with Sagiri who keeps watch while Senta is with Gabimaru. The two then join them on discussing the island and the elixir. The tree monster reveals that the island's name is Kotaku and the elixir, also known as Tan, can be found at the center of the island called Hōrai and shows them its powers by having his hand regenerate. However, he warns them of Lord Tensen, immortal beings that will not allow them to leave the island. Feeling threaten, Gabimaru and Yuzuriha point their weapons towards him but assures them that he was only warning them. Gabimaru then points his weapon at Mei to see if she has regenerative abilities as well but is scolded by Yuzuriha and Sagiri.As a kunoichi, Yuzuriha uses her charms for her own benefits. She managed to set Makiya up to be bait for the insects on the island so she could do research and successfully seduced Genji into accompanying her on the island instead of having him take the second option of leaving for home since his assigned criminal was dead. She also attempted to seduce Gabimaru into teaming up with her. When her seduction methods failed against him, due to him being a fellow shinobi, she tried to act vulnerable and innocent, only for that method to fail as well. [8] Yuzuriha's pride in her looks and sex appeal shows in her choice of outfits, which commonly exposes her cleavage. When Tamiya Gantetsusai commented that he found her bottom attractive, she replied that hers was "the sweetest around." [9] Other than this, Yuzuriha also follows shinobi principles, such as knowing the difference of a person's suffering to tell whether or not they are dead weight. As a criminal, Yuzuriha has no problems when it comes to killing or who she has to sacrifice to achieve a goal.

She was born on a neighbouring island to Saint Marie and enrolled in the police force there where she achieved her sergeant status. However, due to the island's small size and population, Naomi had never worked on a homicide case before joining the force at Saint Marie. She is shown to be very dedicated to her job, a trait that sometimes got in the way of her professionalism, but nevertheless her enthusiasm for the job impresses her fellow officers. Meanwhile, the salesgirls bully Denise out of sales, and she struggles to pay Pépé’s room and board and the money to cover Jean’s constant affairs. Pauline—her one friend at the Ladies Paradise—suggests that Denise make extra money by taking a lover, but Denise is naturally disinclined to a sexual lifestyle. She goes on a day trip to the country with Pauline and her boyfriend, where she is distraught to see Hutin—a salesman at the Ladies’ Paradise whom she has a crush on—acting obscene in a bar. She also runs into Deloche—a salesman at the Ladies’ Paradise. He confesses his love for Denise, but she thinks of him only as a friend. The slow season at the Paradise starts, and all the salespeople live in fear of being fired. One day, Jouve—who has a vendetta against Denise because she physically rejected his predatory advances—catches Denise in the basement talking to Jean, and, believing Jean to be Denise’s lover, has Denise fired immediately. He doesn’t consult Mouret, who has since developed feelings for Denise.

I did not want to leave the island or the game.” Denise then lives through a period of intense poverty. She and Pépé rent a dingy room above a small umbrella shop owned by Bourras. Denise refuses to make money as a prostitute like the other poor women around her, and instead makes a little money working for Bourras, who rants constantly about the obscenity of the Ladies’ Paradise. Finally, Denise gets a job working for Robineau—the buyer of the silk department who was also recently fired—in his new drapery shop. Denise likes the Robineaus, but when she runs into Mouret in a park, they have an impassioned discussion in which she shares her preference for modern business. Robineau and the Baudus (whom Denise has reconciled with) refuse to join what she calls “the natural development of business.” Denise is distraught that the small businessowners are letting themselves be ruined, and that her cousin Geneviève—whose fiancé Colomban is in love with Paradise salesgirl Clara—is dying of heartbreak.

The Ladies’ Paradise by Émile Zola Plot Summary | LitCharts

The story leaves Denise to follow Octave Mouret—the owner of the Ladies’ Paradise—arriving in his office after a night of partying. He looks in gratitude at the portrait of his late wife, Madame Hédouin, and then goes on his daily inspection of his store, the great “machine.” Mouret decides to sell a fancy silk at a loss to himself to ensure customer trust. He founds his store on the principle of exploiting the universal desires of all women. This has proved wildly successful, even though Bourdoncle warns him that women will “have their revenge” one day. Mouret comes upon Denise, who is at that moment applying to work in the ladieswear department. Madame Aurélie—the buyer of the department—thinks that Denise is too shy and skinny, but Mouret takes a liking to her and has Madame Aurélie hire her. Denise, who had seen Mouret earlier on the street, feels the same inexplicable fear around him that she had felt earlier. When Colomban runs off with Clara, Geneviève becomes seriously ill and soon passes away. The small tradespeople—all dismal in their bankrupt state—gather for her funeral. Shortly after, Madame Baudu passes away. Robineau goes bankrupt, fails an attempt at suicide, and then retires to the country with his wife. Bourras goes bankrupt and Mouret demolishes his shop, expanding the Ladies’ Paradise into its space. Baudu and Bourras both refuse Denise’s offers of help. Denise is distraught by the suffering of the small businessowners but sees their demise as necessary for the progress of modern business.Aogyōbu • Arakagi • Gabimaru • Gabimaru • Ginkakubō • Hagetaka • Hyakume • Karasutengu • Kinkakubō • Kiō • Kumokiri • Nobusuma • Iwagakure Chief • Shija • Susubikimaru • Yuzuriha • Gabimaru's Father • Gabimaru's Mother Madame Hédouin was the original owner of the Ladies’ Paradise and Mouret’s late wife.
