A mysterious woman from the Ten no Haoh series, she originally debuted in a bonus edition of the manga before appearing in the anime adaptation.
She joins Ken-Oh's army as a strategist and her military prowess during his conquest attracts the attention of the Holy Emperor, who requests her allegiance, but she rejects his offer out of her love for Raoh. However, she is seen leaving Souther's quarters and imprisoned by Raoh in Cassandra as a suspected traitor. It's later revealed that she is the sister of Gaiya and a master of Kokuzan Ongyō Ken (黒山陰形拳, "Black Mountain Secret Form Fist").
During Raoh's absence, Sakuya wins her freedom to help Reina defend Raoh's headquarters from Yuda. Raoh arrives to defeat Yuda, and he is closely followed by the advancing Souther, who joins the invasion. Sakuya sacrifices herself to end the fight, claiming that until Souther accepts love or Raoh understands sadness neither of them can achieve supremacy.
