: ''Voiced by'': [[Kazumi Amemiya]] (episodes 12-21) → [[Yumiko Shibata]] (episode 73)
: A young girl who is a recurring character in the early episodes of the TV series. She is [[Yuria]]'s personal servant, hired by [[Shin]] in [[Southern Cross]]. She provides emotional support to Yuria after learning about her situation and makes an escape attempt with Yuria, hoping to reunite her with [[Kenshiro]]. Shin catches the two in the act and decides to punish Saki. However, instead of killing her, she is sent back to her home village. She later appears to [[Ryūga]], in which she is shown to be the caretaker of Shin's and Yuria's graves.


: Saki also appears more recently in the manga spin-off ''[[Yuria Gaiden: Jibo no Hoshi]]. ''
Saki is a young girl who is transferred to Shin's castle at [[Southern Cross]] to work as [[Yuria]]'s personal maid. Although employed by Shin, Saki starts to sympathize with Yuria's situation when learns about Yuria's lover [[Kenshiro]] and how they were separated by Shin. At first, she tries to sneak Yuria out of Southern Cross, only to be caught by Shin at the last minute.

Afterward, Saki's brother [[Temjina]] served as Yuria's messenger to Ken and while he was successful in divulging the location of Southern Cross to Ken, he was fatally wounded during his escape and died after giving his message. Shin punished Saki by banishing her away from Southern Cross. However, this was a ruse by Shin to keep Saki from the brewing civil war between himself and his subordinate [[Barcom]] by sending Saki away to her home village.
 
After the downfall of the [[King]] organization and the death of Shin, Saki returned to Southern Cross to served as the caretaker of Shin's and Yuria's graves. A year after Shin's death, Saki came across [[Ryuga]] during one night, who was visiting Yuria's grave to pay his respects. It is unknown whether Saki was aware that Yuria was still alive at the time.
