"Lose the sigh, Tsukushi. When the heavy stuff hits, that's when you party. I'm going to Joliana tonight. Why don't you two come along?"
—Inviting Yuki and Tsukushi to go dancing[src]

Matsuoka (松岡 (まつおか) ) was the older sister of Yuki Matsuoka. She often went out clubbing dressed in flashy clothing and heavy make-up. Her favorite club was Joliana. On one occasion, she helped her sister and Tsukushi Makino dress for a party. She took them out dancing on another occasion. Later on, Matsuoka started wearing less make-up.

Biography[]

Early life[]

Matsuoka was the first daughter born to her mother and father. She had a younger sister named Yuki.[1]

Young adulthood[]

One night, she came home and greeted Tsukushi Makino, Yuki's friend whom she had not seen for a while. Yuki then explained that they needed outfits for a party. She dressed them in the style she wore to her favorite club, Joliana. Yuki's sister also advised them to do a "octopus dance", which she called "sexy."[2] Another night, she invited Yuki and Tsukushi to Joliana when she noticed the latter was down. There she wanted to dance on the platform and decided to take on Sakurako Sanjo.[3] She quickly knocked Yuki's sister off the platform. Yuki then rushed to her sister's side.[4] Several months later, it was announced that her father would transferred, instead of the anticipated promotion. The family was alarmed.[5] However, the transfer was quickly reversed and the family presumably went back to normal.[6]

By the following spring, Matsuoka started wearing less make-up. Tsukushi visited the Matsuokas around the same time for dinner and to spend the night.[7][1] Later, a handsome man came to see Yuki. Her sister quickly alerted her and worried about Yuki going out without make-up.[8]

Physical appearance[]

She had extremely long, curly hair that went halfway down her back. Yuki's sister wore a lot of makeup, jewelry, and sexually provocative clothing when she went out clubbing. Once everything was removed, she had a surprisingly plain face that even Tsukushi did not recognize at first. She eventually started wearing less make-up.

Personality and traits[]

Despite being a bit silly, she was a helpful and caring older sister to Yuki. She enjoyed having fun foremost and did so by going out clubbing. Yuki's sister was familiar with clubs, particularly Joliana. She liked to show off her dancing skills and frequently did so on Joliana's platform.

Etymology[]

Matsuoka (松岡; まつおか) contains two kanji. The first means "pine tree"[9] and the second "hill."[10]

Behind the scenes[]

Character notes

  • Yuki's sister first appears in chapter sixteen of the manga.
  • In several adaptations, including Meteor Garden (2001), Hana Yori Dango (2005), Boys Over Flowers (2009), Meteor Garden (2018), and F4 Thailand (2021), Yuki's counterpart is an only child thus omitting the existence of her sister.
  • Yuki's sister dresses in the bodikon style popular in the early 1990s, particularly with the Tokyo nightlife. Her favorite discothéque Joliana is a reference to Juliana's. In her later appearances, Yuki's sister no longer dresses in this style as it had fallen out of fashion.
