Sachiko Uemura

Appearance
She is an old, kind looking woman with wrinkled skin. She has long brown hair kept in a tight bun and wears a yellow dress with a orange and red striped scarf.

Personality
She seems to have been a kind woman. She was very patient and calm throughout the whole game. She was very friendly to Decim and Onna, sharing parts of her life with them and enjoying the game with a smile. She was also very shrewd as she figured out she was dead despite not having the memory of how she died as she saw a card that had an illustration that she imagined but never drew, meaning it was impossible for it to be on a card when it didn't even exist. She has lived a long, full life and appears to be content with it, especially since she was calm and immediately accepted her death.

Background
She was married to the old man from "Death Billiards" and the two lived happily together despite not being able to give birth to children. She was a hardworking but not very popular illustrator and admits that while there were tough times she truly enjoyed what she did.

Plot
She plays a game of old maids with Chiyuki (Onna) and Decim and wins the game. Decim did not set up an extreme condition or threaten her to play the game. She enjoyed the game because on the cards she was playing many of the illustrations she drew appeared and as an illustrator, it made her happy to see her illustrations. She figured out she was dead when she discovered a card with an illustration she thought up but never drew and while she states she can't remember how she died she decides to keep it that way as she feels it is better not knowing. She also explains the story of Chavvot which is key to Onna's past. Decim sends her to reincarnation, having respect for her for living her life to the fullest.

Quotes

 * "How do you express your feelings?"
 * "Yes with words. But there are other ways to express your feelings. That is probably why they made Chavvot deaf. For example, a person smiles no matter what land they are from."

Trivia

 * It is revealed that she is the wife of the old man from the original short "Death Billiards".
