Her last name contains the kanji for "play" (遊 yū) and "castle" (城 ki), while her first name means "kindness, child" (渥子 atsuko).

Born on July 18th, in Tokyo Japan, Atsuko is the younger sister of Takashi Yuki, and the younger child and only daughter of Tashiro and Rie Yuki. Growing up, she and her brother were often found arguing over the smallest things, which didn't help their parents. It eventually came to the point, they refused to interact with each other. When Takashi finish high school and went off to unviersity, Atsuko felt it was a blessing.

After high school, Atsuko went to Kyoto for university to study art. Following graduation, she went back home in Tokyo, unable to stay away, despite not wanting to see her brother. She attended his wedding, and later the birth of his son, her nephew, Judai. She fell in love with her nephew the first second she met him, and swore to always be there for him. Though she and her brother disliked each other, they were nice in the presence of Jaden, not wanting to show it in front of him. Early on, Atsuko was Jaden's carer, as her brother and sister-in-law were quite busy in their jobs. She didn't mind it too much, as she worked from home, but Atsuko was more worried for Jaden.

A few years later, Atsuko moved into a larger, bigger apartment. When Jaden was about six-years-old, Atsuko got the strange request to take Jaden in. Though she was confused, mostly because this was the first time where she and Takashi didn't argue after contact, but also because she was worried about her nephew. When she learns about the why she was being asked to take him in, Atsuko agreed.

After helping settling Jaden in, she introduced him to her work partner, Arashi Sasaki, and his niece, Asami. Very quickly the two children became friends, mostly through their love of Duel Monsters. After learning about what had happened, Atsuko gifted Jaden his "Elemental Hero" cards. Things were starting to look good, but then the nightmares began. Worried greatly for Jaden's mental health, she did everything she could to try to help him, even see medical help. But then, the nightmares stopped, which greatly confused Atsuko. But at the same time, Jaden didn't seem notice they had stopped, so she didn't worry much.

When Jaden and Asami were ten, Arashi and Atsuko officially began dating, but making sure to put their niece/nephew first before anything. Most of their dates ended up being family things, with Jaden and Asami, which neither minded. Arashi and Atsuko became engaged, when Jaden and Asami were about thirteen, and two years later, stil lhaven't decided their wedding date.

While out on a day trip to Domino City, Atsuko overheard about Duel Academy. Knowing how much Jaden and Asami were into dueling, she figured it would be good for them. She helped him out with the fees and whatnot to attend, making Jaden promise that he would try his hardest, knowing attending classes wasn't something he liked to do.
