Shizuru is the older sister of Kazuma Kuwabara who makes several extended appearances throughout the anime. She is called Susie in the Filipino Dub of the anime, and Seiryu in the latin dub. She is voiced by Ai Orikasa in Japanese, Kasey Buckley in English, and Andrea Kwan in English for Animax-Asia. In the Filipino Dub of the anime, she was voiced by Grace Cornel. Shizuru, standing tall and slim, has long brown hair, brown eyes, and a fair complexion, causing her to share little to no resemblence with her younger brother, Kazuma. Her typical outfit consist of a white, long-sleeved button down shirt; a long, red tie; a light brown, short-sleeved vest; and long, dark green slacks. Her other outfit is a brown long coat under a long sleeve orange shirt, brown slacks and leather shoes. She can usually be found with a cigarette in her mouth, and her facial countenance is mostly nonchalant and carefree. Shizuru possesses a mellow and somewhat cynical personality, reflected by her easygoing (and at times bored) facial expression. Shizuru practices a tough love approach when raising Kazuma, causing her to be stern yet loving towards him. In the English anime she refers to him by his first name, while in the English manga and Japanese version she addresses him by a nickname Kazu. Though she usually stays out of other characters' affairs, she occasionally takes matters into her own hands, using the same brute force which seems to run in the Kuwabara family. This type of behavior generally seems to get Shizuru in the most trouble, specifically in several instances during the dark tournament. In addition, she has been endowed with sensitive spirit awareness, yet another of her traits which she shares with her younger brother.
