Yoshioka Kanako
Kimiko is a former Kanoe rank within the Demon Slayer Corp., and was Kocho Shinobu's tsukugo before her death. She goes by she/her pronouns.
When she was alive, Kimiko was a precocious young demon slayer who, alongside her brother, Kanako, shot through the ranks as Kocho Shinobu's tsukugos. The pair had incredible potential and held a lot of promise as demon slayers, but were killed by Upper Rank Six on their first solo mission - notably, not a mission appropriate for someone their ages nor ranks. At the time, it was not known that an Upper Rank was present, and that remained unknown for several years, as their bodies weren't found - all communication simply stopped.

Yoshioka Kanako [ Brother ]
Kimiko is the older sibling by a few minutes, but has never acted the older sibling. Kanako, from a very young age, was defensive of his sister, and unsurprisingly took the lead in most situations. It was his decision to become demon slayers after their family was killed, and him who plead to Shinobu to train them. Kanako also blames himself for his sister's death, and would have become a demon if it weren't for seeing her death by Daki.
Kocho Shinobu [ Mentor ]
Kocho Shinobu was Kanako and Kimiko's mentor, as they were her tsukugo. Kimiko held respect for Shinobu, but didn't find the same attachment to her as her brother did. That being said, she did find a lot in common with Shinobu. She was weak, similarly to Shinobu, but not due to her size - rather, she was somewhat sickly. Shinobu gladly taught her how to kill demons despite being weak, because whil Kimiko wasn't entirely strong or healthy, she was determined.
Tsuyuri Kanao [ Neutral ]
Kanako and Kimiko were a bit older than Kanao when they met, but Kimiko immediately found herself attached to Kanao. Similarly to a younger sister, Kimiko found herself enamored with the younger girl, and they were often inseparable when they weren't training or on missions.
