'Yumi is the obligatory class delinquent. She doesn’t particularly seem to show any interest in associating with other girls apart from picking fights with them on a near daily basis.

Background
Yumi was born as the daughter of Yuki and the unnamed head of the Yamaguchi clan. Due to her father not caring about her and her mother being high most of the time before abandoning her completely, Yumi was forced to rely on herself early on. One of her few friends was her older cousin Kaori, who visited her until she was severely injured in an accident and hospitalized. After not receiving any new information about her condition for a long time, she assumed that she didn’t make it.
At some point, she became fed up with her family and the yakuza life, leaving the estate behind. She later met and became friends with Chika and her little sister, Chinami. She enrolled into Kumon-Mi High, though rarely attends class.
Characteristics

She’s rude, vulgar, short-tempered, acts disrespectful towards anyone, except Chika and Chinami, enjoys belittling those who are weaker than her, which is usually Futaba, frequently skips school, commits petty crimes, and spends most of her time alone.
While some of these qualities, especially her behavior, haven’t change much, she starts to improve her life and grows as a person as time goes on and due to Sensei’s influence. She genuinely tries to get a part-time job, picks on others less and less, even apologizing to Futaba for bullying her, gets calmer and more approachable in general interactions, though her short temper still persists and she can easily snap if someone hits a nerve, and becomes a little more social as she joins a club and seems to participate in regular club activities.
Despite her usual behavior, Yumi can behave herself, though that mostly happens during her interactions with Chika and when she is around Chinami.
Relationships
Sensei
Yumi has a strained relationship with Sensei dating to before his current incarnation. She says that he used to track her down in the arcades and that he constantly gave her detention. She is, however, one of the first to notice his change in personality and is bothered by the inconsistency. She thinks lowly of him due to his relationship with the other students, referring to him as "a fucking creep who spends too much time around teenage girls", and entertains no delusions about his moral fiber.
While she has an overall negative opinion of him, Yumi doesn’t hate Sensei and appreciates his attempts at helping her with job hunting, admitting that he's done more for her than every other adult. After Nodoka’s blackmailing, her feelings about him before more complicated. Between everything that he did for her until then, his passiveness during the incident and his rant at the end of the second Dorm War, she’s left in a state of total confusion and uncertainty where she can’t figure out if she hates him or not.
Despite her attitude towards him, there are a few people who think that she likes him. Chinami is one of those as seen in The Gap in the Door and even Nodoka assumes that she starts to fall for him, which is one reason why she used him in her revenge plot.
Chika
Chika is Yumi's best and only real friend. She seems to be the only one who can calm Yumi down or get her to cooperate, though even this has limits. Yumi seems to genuinely care for Chika and doesn't want her getting used by Sensei. She also helps her by taking care of Chinami when Chika needs to leave for work.
After what she did to Nodoka, she feared that she destroyed her only friendship, which was the reason she went back to her father’s estate rather then going to her when she couldn’t handle life on the street.

She shows little remorse about the fact when confronted by Sensei. It is implied she bullies her because Futaba won't stand up for herself and this bothers Yumi for personal reasons.
As time goes on, Yumi bullies her less and less until she finally apologized to her in See You Around and promised to not pick on her again. Yumi hasn’t interacted directly with her since then, because while she has no intention to belittle her anymore, she also has no reason or interest in befriending her.

She seems to express no interest in a relationship with her mother despite wearing her skirt and living a similar lifestyle. Yumi was not aware about her living in Kumon-mi until accidentally meeting her at Tojo Ramen.

Both she and Yuki hold him in very low esteem, and she expressly mentions trying to live differently than he does.
