    History[]

    Dorssian Occupation of JIOR[]

    As Operation Virgin Road began, Shoko was having an eating contest with her childhood friend Haruto Tokishima to decide who gets to use the school grounds and she wins. In class, Haruto stares at her while receiving "advice from Kyuma", she knows something is up when Haruto averts his eyes while reading a message. She crawls over to Haruto's desk, trying to get his phone. Marie grabs it from behind and tosses it to her. Haruto demands she give it back or else he won't talk to her ever again. Shoko requests to know why Haruto keeps looking at her way. He says he was thinking of how cute she was when she's quiet. To avoid Shoko getting the wrong idea, he clarifies only when she is quiet. as this backfire into Shoko thinking Haruto is saying she is ugly when she speaks, and Haruto jumps back to calling her cute again.

    as Shoko pulls out a broom from a cupboard, she confronts Haruto, asking if he was really trying to win during the competition earlier, Haruto says he'd just prefer a world where they didn't have to compete like that, dividing half of the grounds each to which L-elf Karlstein teaches Haruto a lesson right in front of Shoko.

    Later, she is by the shrine cleaning the area with Haruto, Kyuma, and Aina Sakurai, she violently complains about their incident with L-elf, defending Haruto's words. Haruto appreciates her getting mad on his behalf and tells her that he got it off his mind thanks to her, Shoko says that's what friends do.

    At the shrine, Shoko and Haruto begin to confess their love for each other, but they are interrupted when a Nw507Be Waffe blasts a hole in the Dyson Sphere.

    Shoko and her friends try to escape, when they encounter a robot rising, it is the Valvrave. In a brave move, she runs off in an attempt to rescue a civilian stuck inside a car. As she opened the car's door. Suddenly, a beam from a Waffe hits nearby, and neither she nor the car could be seen anymore. Her classmates, including Haruto, assume she is dead, provoking Haruto to avenge her by jumping into the Valvrave cockpit. (Season 1: "The Revolutionary Transfer Student")

    It was later revealed that she miraculously managed to get inside the car in the last moment, and the laser beam only buried the car under earth and debris. She calls Haruto (who is in the Valvrave with L-elf and Saki) and informs him of her state. Overjoyed, he promises to return to her as soon as possible, so they can continue the talk they had at the shrine.

    However, by that point, he had already accepted Valvrave's condition of "giving up on his own humanity", and Haruto felt as though he was a monster, who no longer had the rights to have feelings. With this in mind, he changes his mind about his confession and plays it off as teasing her clothing style. (Season 1: "Beyond 666")

    When Haruto was confused under Dorssia's assault to accept L-elf's offer (surrender) or not, Shoko gave him spirit and a new option by making Module 77 an independent nation. Shoko's idea was accepted by a majority of students, and afterward, Haruto used Valvrave I to separate Module 77 away from the other modules, and thus New JIOR was born.

    At the end of episode ten, she was elected as prime minister of New JIOR. In her candidate speech, she said her wish to confess her love for a certain someone after the war is over.

    Shoko's father (prime minister of old JIOR), who is assumed to be missing, ended up as a captive by Dorssia army to force New JIOR to surrender. Shoko must choose between her friends or her father's life, but her father advised her not to give up no matter what. In the end, Shoko's father died along with Dorssia's fleets under Haruto's Harakiri Blade. Shoko, unable to do anything she burst into tears.
