Yuri Hanazawa

Yuri Hanazawa (花澤ゆり) is a minor character in Generation 2 of Lucky Besties. She is the older cousin of Misaki and Yotsura Tsutsuji.

Personality
When Yuri was first introduced, she was a friendly and mature girl who cared a lot for her younger cousins, but when Misaki or Yotsura wasn't around, she'd treat the others (namely Mari) like dirt, as well as brag about how she has a lot of stuff the others don't have. This is what she acts like on the outside. On the inside she isn't very pleased with herself, and doesn't have that many friends, and is trying hard to make friends, but feels like her low self-esteem is making her act this way.

After a talk with Misaki (as well as being saved from the monster), she is ready to act kinder towards Misaki's friends and treat them equally.

History
Yuri is the older cousin of Misaki and Yotsura, and lives in a mansion. Her parents are rich so she has lots of things (clothes, makeup, books, etc.). But she has a habit of constantly bragging about the stuff she has, as well as treating everyone (with the only exceptions being her family) a rank below her.

Later, in said episode, Misaki overhears Yuri bossing around one of her [Misaki's] friends. Misaki decides to step in and put a stop to this so she goes to Yuri and confronts her. She says she thinks it's unfair for Yuri to treat the friends like this asking what the friends did to Yuri to cause all of this.

After talking with Misaki, Yuri realizes the truth and how she treated everyone was wrong and apologizes to her younger cousin, but before she can apologize to her friends, a shadowy figure uses its arm to break a window, snatch up Yuri, and absorb her energy, in turn making the enemy stronger. It's up to Lucky Clover and her friends to save the day.
