“ | Cheerfulness is paramount!

Yosafire (ヨザファイア) is the main protagonist of The Gray Garden. She is a demon and Froze's best friend and girlfriend.
Physical Description[]
Yosafire has red eyes and short two-toned hair, green on the outside and pink on the interior her side bangs being the longest part of her hair. Yosafire also has pink horns but wears a red beret to hide the broken horn on her right, a pair of green wings with pink membranes, and a heart-shaped green tail fading to pink. She wears red glasses, a yellow cross necklace, an oversized red sweater over a white turtleneck, dark red stockings, and red knee-high boots with white fur trim.
Personality[]
Being fervent, lively, impulsive and only slightly irresponsible makes Yosafire headstrong. These characteristics tend to give her an impression of being stubborn, exhibited in the fact she is always the first to act and the last to give in despite all odds against her. Her ability to place her trust even in people she only just met is one of the admirable qualities also making her an affable character. She uses the personal pronoun "atashi" when referring to herself. [1]
Overall, Yosafire is an earnest and often intent individual who, despite her erroneous view of the world she lives in, is very adaptable to new situations and places. She is often quick to find solutions to problems presented to her. However, it could be said she is just as quick to realize her mistaken understanding of the Gray Garden's ways, but she still holds strong on her opinion everyone should not be chained to casteism.
While filled with indignation toward those who mistreat her and her friends, she never seems to express any true resentment; in fact, the only time she has ever been shown outraged is when she denounces Ivlis for harming Kcalb and badmouths him. Yosafire is quite against the idea of needless violence and would rather steer clear from a situation requiring it.
She is loyal to those she cares about and will strive in keeping them happy and in high morale, especially in the direst situations. For instance, she impulsively jumped off a cliff in order to save Froze, only then remembering her fear of flying. Another example can be found in her relationship with Kcalb, where despite knowing of his past deeds, she is still very much willing to accept him as he is, with no changes in her love and care for him.
Yosafire tends to use childish insults, sometimes even vulgar ones. She also loves flowers even though she has hay fever. Prior to the events of The Gray Garden she used to have a fear of heights but conquered her fear in the game in order to save Froze. Yosafire enjoys coffee with lots of milk and sugar and reading comic books. [2] She also stated she likes smelt in DJ Met's Radio Talk Show. [2] As seen in a bonus room video, she is unable to swim. [2]
Background[]
During the Great War between angels and demons, a demon by the name of Yosaflame fought alongside his devil Kcalb. Sometime throughout the war, Yosaflame died. Etihw reincarnated the fallen soldiers of the Great War when it was over. As a result, Yosaflame was reincarnated as Yosafire.
Yosafire is a demon hailing from the Gray Garden who lives by herself in the Gray Village. When she was younger, she had an accident while flying, resulting in a broken horn. Since then she had acquired a fear of both flying and heights, later conquered in The Gray Garden to save Froze. She is also a student enrolling in the Gray Village's school.

Yosaflame is Yosafire's ancestor who died in the Great War before the events of The Gray Garden. Yosafire's outgoing personality starkly contrasts that of her ancestor's stoic demeanor.
In Funamushi Private Deep-Sea Academy, Yosaflame is alive and Yosafire's father. [3]
The Gray Garden Cast[]
Froze[]
Froze is Yosafire's best friend and girlfriend. Yosafire introduces Froze as someone that is quick to anger and a bit difficult; however, she also says that Froze is a really kind angel and her best friend ever. The two are exceptionally close. Yosafire enjoys bringing Froze on her adventures, as seen in the start of The Gray Garden. Froze looks out for Yosafire due to the latter's abundance in reckless actions and is the one who Yosafire turns to when their homework deadline comes knocking. Froze sees Yosafire as a blundering klutz and is easily irritated with the demon's overall exaggerations. Despite all that, she feels safe enough to smile in front of Yosafire and has even laughed with her. In turn, Yosafire is fiercely loyal to her, to the degree the demon was willing to eschew her fears to save Froze's life.
In The Gray Garden, Yosafire eagerly declared her romantic feelings for Froze, saying she wanted "Froze to be her girlfriend," even when the time or situation is not appropriate for such romantic confessions. Froze, at the time, seemed to harbor mutually romantic feelings but did not acknowledge them at the time. At the end of The Gray Garden, Froze thanks Yosafire for sticking with her despite her many shortcomings.
In a mini-comic, Froze kissed Yosafire on the cheek. Deep-Sea Prisoner has also formally confirmed they are a couple. [4] Froze is the top in their relationship. [5] The flowers seen in Froze's house were also brought and tended by Yosafire "just 'cause." [2]
Macarona[]
Macarona is one of Yosafire's close friends. Yosafire introduces her as someone really timid with her face being able to turn red quickly. She also mentions that Macarona is a good grappler. Yosafire visibly dislikes it when Macarona cries and will do her best to comfort her friend in any way she can. She has been seen encouraging the angel to smile when situations turn for the worse.
Rawberry Preserves[]
Rawberry is one of Yosafire's close friends. Yosafire notes how Rawberry loves to eat, especially weird things such as bugs and meat. She shares Yosafire's cheery attitude, and they often make jokes together as seen when they insult Emalf in turns.
Dialo[]
Dialo is one of Yosafire's close friends. Yosafire introduces her as a great cook and being kind of mysterious. Yosafire greatly enjoys Dialo's apple pies to great proportions. Though disgusted by the sheer amount of pie her friend can eat, Dialo bakes them regardless, displaying no sense of dismay over the absurd amount of apples Yosafire brings in during the events of The Gray Garden should the player take more than five apples from the Apple Park.
Chelan[]
Chelan is one of Yosafire's close friends. Yosafire introduces her as someone really quiet and has never seen Chelan speak.
Kcalb[]
Kcalb is Yosafire's devil. Kcalb seems to be close to her compared to other villagers. The special respect the two share may stem from Yosafire being the reincarnation of Yosaflame, Kcalb's former loyal underling. Yosafire is prone to teasing and pranking Kcalb, who in turn often feels irritated and flustered by her mischief. He also becomes angry when she calls him "Old Man." She is also prone to wandering in on Kcalb and Etihw during their time together, teasing about their relationship and how they are very close, as can be seen in both the game and some illustrations. Despite that, Kcalb openly accepts and enjoys Yosafire's company.
After falling off a cliff, having been dealt with great wounds by Ivlis, Yosafire saves Kcalb. Though he attempts to convince her he has no right to live due to his past deeds, Yosafire chooses to ignore his pleas, telling him it does not matter to her what he did in the past since he is a different person now. After the invasion eases, Yosafire goes to check up on Kcalb and wanders in on Etihw and him sharing "an adult moment" together while they are outside to which Kcalb adamantly denies nothing was happening.
In the bonus room video Moonlit Night, Yosafire and Kcalb watch the moon. Yosafire reassures Kcalb that he can speak to her about anything that is bothering him, even though he prefers to be alone. Soon after, Kcalb comments on how the moon reminds him of his past. The two talk about shooting stars and making a wish; when Yosafire jokes about her wish and asks Kcalb what he would wish for, he expresses that he would like to meet some people again, two of which would be difficult to meet and the third never having met face to face. He says he is not worthy of meeting them. Yosafire encourages him that perhaps one day they could meet.
In the Genderbend (AU), Yosafire teases Kcalb by calling her "ojou-chan" (old lady) as seen in an illustration.
Etihw[]
Etihw is Yosafire's god. They are on very good terms. After Yosafire was attacked by a flame bat, Yosafire and Froze went to Blancblack Castle, where Etihw healed Yosafire's injuries. Yosafire views both Etihw in a positive light and thinks of them as "cute."
Lowrie[]
Lowrie is one of Yosafire's teachers. They are on good terms. He is caring and diligent in his teachings, and he comes to Yosafire and her friends' aide when the Gray Garden is under attack.
Greif[]
Greif is one of Yosafire's teachers. They are on neutral terms. Greif frequently punishes Yosafire for not turning in her schoolwork and falling asleep in class. When Yosafire forgets her homework, Greif makes her pull weeds in the school's garden. Despite their tense relationship, Greif defends Yosafire and her friends when the Gray Garden is under attack.
Alela Grora[]
- This section is incomplete. You can help improve this article by expanding it.
Alela Grora is Yosafire's friends. Grora blatantly disapproves of Yosafire comparing her to Wodahs and grouping them as siblings. During the garden's invasion, Yosafire expresses distress when she sees Grora injured. They were shown drinking together in an illustration. Alela and Yosafire's genderbend counterparts will often talk about pornographic topics with one another. [6]
Wodahs[]
- This section is incomplete. You can help improve this article by expanding it.
Wodah's is Yosafire's friend. They have been seen interacting more in some artworks.
Emalf[]
Emalf is one of Yosafire's enemies and his love interest, though the romantic feelings aren't reciprocated. He first developed a crush on her after capturing Yosafire and friends and bringing them back to the Flame Underworld. Yosafire, in turn, despises and adamantly refuses his interest. She insults him with nicknames such as "Shades McGee" and "Pervy McShades" on account of his penchant for wearing shades and creepy flirting. Even after the failed invasion, Emalf still thinks about Yosafire once every three days as shown in a bonus room video.
Ivlis[]
Ivlis is Yosafire's enemy. Yosafire encountered Ivlis when he attempted to kill Kcalb and take his power. Ivlis sexually assaulted Yosafire after she had attempted to fight him off alone. It was later revealed in the Mini-Comics his motivation for doing this was due to Yosafire's glasses being the same as the ones his father Siralos wears. However, Ivlis was stopped in time by Kcalb.
