An obsessed fan girl who entered the tournament to meet and fight Yuka. She is also an admirer of her fighting style (so that both are almost alike). The fact that Tamao has developed the power of aura and is only 14 years old is pretty unusual for a girl her age (what a difference 2 years make between her and Manami!).

     As mentioned before, Yuka and Tamao seem very much alike (which confused Satomi once). Yuka is kinda of like a big sister to her. She refers to Yuka as her "Senpai" [Something a younger person would say to someone who is older and more educated.]

     Tamao put herself to the test and was pitted with some of V.G. past contestants. Eventually she got her chance to meet Yuka. Later during that point of time, Yuka is suffering from an aura breakdown where she cannot fight like before (she can't beat Jun now). This is where Tamao faces her destiny and takes Yuka's role as the new main hero of V.G.

     She began her quest with Yuka (powerless) by her side. After their encounter with Reimi, Yuka suddenly regained her normal powerful self. She became Tamao's personal sensei (or senpai as Tamao calls it). Yuka trained her so that Tamao can one day have the power to surpass her own master.

     When the V.G. 2 tournament held a fight between the two, Tamao ended up being the victor when she magically knocked back Yuka's own projectile. Yuka's long winning streak was defeated by her own student. It was later fated that Tamao and Yuka (with the help of Chiho), teamed up to find and finish off Miranda.

     Believe it or not, Tamao's personality is almost the equalivalent of Yuka meaning that she started acting more clumsy and naive as her senpai in the past, whereas Yuka has become more serious.

     Tamao has a certain distrust in men because she suspects that they are all hentais (at least that's what she has been told even at such a young age). She already does not like the man that Yuka is going out with, but Yuka thinks that he's not that bad. Of course, if Tamao thinks her friend is trying anything foolish, she is capable of kicking his ass (or preferably between the legs :( ).

     Tamao had always been in favor of everything Yuka had said to her but was disappointed that she had to hang out with her friend. Eventually, Tamao thinks that he is all right but she is still suspicious of him. Later she became interested in him for some reasons. One of them turns out to be a popular fighting game in which Tamao has no problem competing with him against.

     The only one I can think of is Chain Gun from the Evolution RPG series on dreamcast. Not many major roles for Chinami that I know of but AVG2 seems to be one of her first major roles.
