During this time, she met Uryū Kamihate, who had come back in time with the help of The Fox-Masked Woman, changing her fate.
Her family was friends with the Amagami family, so she was taken in by them.
She received the name "Yae Amagami" and became the eldest sister to Yuna Amagami and Asahi Amagami.
Yae continues to use her birth name, Reiko Ichijoji, for official documents like her driver’s license, so "Yae Amagami" is only her everyday name.

When she ran away, she met Uryū Kamihate, who came from the future with the help of The Fox-Masked Woman.
This meeting changed her direction and gave her new hope.
Becoming Part of the Amagami Family
Because their families were old friends, Yae was placed in the care of the Amagami family.

Dealing with Family Ties
Later, Yae’s parents take her back to their family home by force.

- Yae has B blood type.
- She was born on October 15.
