Tae Yamada/Relationships

Eikichi Hyodo
After kidnapping him, Tae forces him to participate in the night hunt so that he can use the power of the onions against the Sagako as his sister did before turning into an onion. Tae doesn't mind hitting him with her whip and scolding him for being in the hot springs instead of accompanying the group, at the end of the failed hunt she decides to personally train Eikichi to make him a useful member of the team. As the chapters progress, Eikichi's ability makes Tae proud because he reminds her to Yuko more every day and what she was for her in the past, this feeling of pride is increasingly close to a "crush" from the point of view of Tae since Eikichi is becoming someone who helped her with her problems in the past as was Yuko Hyodo.

Eikichi helps Tae during Chapter 4 by buying merchandise for Tae's "office" and defending the food stand from a Sagako who was driving away customers from the area, causing the place to almost close due to lack of customers. Later, Tae and Eikichi work together at the premises, although Tae continues to be aggressive towards him for worldly reasons. Despite being closer, Tae keeps hitting Eikichi when he accidentally says that Tae is an aggressive person in his talk with Hanako after injecting him with a love potion. Despite her aggressive treatment of Eikichi, Tae shows appreciation for him for all that he has helped them in the last few weeks. Although at first Tae was quite aggressive with him, she begins to show more sincere emotions when the situation warrants it, specifically she begins to show this part of herself when Eikichi is in a state of negativity after being hit by Higashino earlier. She leaving behind the bossy leader attitude to show her true personality and her feelings that she always repressed, trying to convince Eikichi to come out of the state of depression in which he was and make him return to the group. However, she fails to express herself properly and only makes the situation worse temporarily. Eikichi finally realizes what Tae meant and returns to the group so he can apologize.

Yuko Hyodo
A member of the group who turned into an onion after using all her power, Tae was so distressed by the incident that she decides with Yuko's last words to recruit the girls' brother even though she takes it very literally by abducting him. Tae met Yuko when when she fought against the Sagakos in Saga and Yuko was still a young girl who defended Tae from being hurt, years later Yuko decided to work together with Tae at her hamburger stand and thanks to Yuko this place thrives very well. When Yuko died the place fell into oblivion and this left Tae quite upset to the point of feeling depressed.

Anna Shuri
Right hand of Tae and who takes care of the disasters after the fight against the Sagakos, like cleaning the hot springs of the onions that Eikichi threw failed. Tae recognizes that Anna is not as innocent as she seems and knows about her actions in the club where she works, in turn and as it is her duty, she helps Anna clean the club where she works from a Sagako who does make women go crazy.

Before her arrival in the group, Tae tended to be very aggressive due to arguments or different points of view when fighting the Sagakos, Anna helped Tae a lot to solve that defect by making the discussions disappear being very useful for the team and the best workmanship they could get.

Hanako Hakase
The group's scientist and whom Tae explains about new weapons to use against the Sagakos. Hanako is the one who usually tells Tae not to go overboard with Eikichi for wanting to compare him to Yuko

Hanako is very sincere, sometimes too much for Tae, not only does she mention the secret of her age but sometimes she does not measure the consequences of what she says in the first place. While both girls get along, in the past they have both constantly struggled over how to defeat some troublesome Sagakos.

Jofuku (MJ)
Tae is Jofuku's adoptive daughter since he adopted her after the death of her parents at the hands of Sagako, they both agreed to only speak to each other through the mansion's television and they hardly ever speak to each other in person unless Tae needs them to. MJ bought something for her food stand, this is because Tae doesn't like Jofuku because he is very overprotective with her and rarely lets him act on his own. During chapter 5 they manage to reconcile more or less through the television of the mansion and they go to a restaurant to have a good time in a group.

Mrs Yamada
Tae's mother and who cared about her daughter even though she spent more time on an investigation, she was the one who bought her a stuffed rabbit for her birthday. As a result of a discovery she made, she spends little time at home and leaves Tae alone for most of the day.

Mr Yamada
Tae's father, a scientist accompanying her mother on her research, spends little time with Tae as he is very busy.

Takeo go
After the incident with Lily in the anime, Tae growls like he's a dog when the girls interrogate him. In the past, Tae and Takeo clashed when a Sagako possessed the giant man's body.



Magatsuhi
Being at first a strange baby that her parents found, Tae distrusts this creature even in its harmless stage. Distrust which turned out to be true when the Sagako was born suddenly killing her parents in the process, which caused Tae to generate a grudge against these creatures. Years later, this Sagako manifests again, destroying the mansion where the Busters live and causing chaos in the city. Tae desperately confronts this Sagako, causing some damage, but is dejected before she can destroy it.

Sakura Minamoto (Zombie #1)
Tae is the first zombie Sakura meets, as Tae was the one who butted her head into the hall Sakura was in in the first episode, effectively scaring Sakura into fleeing the mansion. After she regains consciousness, she once again discovers that she has somehow returned to the mansion. Kotaro then introduces her to Tae along with the rest of Franchouchou, but after reaching Tae Yamada, Sakura confusedly asks Kotaro about what made Tae legendary as she didn't have a description for her. This annoys Kotaro and tells her that Tae is legendary just because she is.

She is not afraid to attack people if she thinks they pose a threat. She will chase pets like Cocco thinking they are monsters, and she fought a huge boar to protect Sakura. She was like that in life too, being a Sagako hunter. In the eleventh episode, Tae is shown to be one of the girls who was greatly affected by Sakura's depression after being hit once again by another truck. She and the rest of Franchouchou try their best to cheer her up and bring back memories of her as a zombie, but to no avail. The rest of the group notices how Tae was "crying" for Sakura, only to realize that the water droplets weren't her tears, but rather her overflowing plethora of saliva with the panoramic camera showing how Tae had had enough. which sends her into a brief psychotic episode and she crashes into the same room that Junko locked herself in through the windows. Effectively scaring her, she drags Sakura back to the rest of the team to try to get her back for good.

Tae's zombie antics and her girlish behavior are often a source of comedy. However, in Episode 12, when Sakura, blinded by depression, vehemently rejects her too many times, Tae reaches his Breaking Point of anger and shows that even if she is ultimately a harmless zombie, she can actually be quite scary when she's really mad. She tries her best to help Sakura remember her successes. Sakura had previously acted as her caretaker so as not to end up biting people, and she had also taught her to pay attention and dance, earning her eternal loyalty from her. So when Sakura sulks in the attic, Tae tries her best to crash into the attic and drag her to the dance studio to try to refresh her memories of her. After Sakura has all the pre and post mortem memories of her, she happily chews on her head. For a zombie who has a bit of humanity, this really says a lot.

Zombie Tae is very animalistic, like dealing with threats like a mad dog, constantly eating even when she shouldn't, and is easily distracted from her idol training, often needing someone like Sakura to keep her focused.

During the chapters of the manga, Tae's attention to Sakura causes her to awaken her hunting instinct and save Kotaro and Sakura from a fall that would cause them to discover that they are zombies, she saves them both but clearly has a preference for preserving Sakura.

During the second season, Tae and Sakura usually go together to prevent Tae from doing crazy things or exposing that they are zombies. Both girls practice together when necessary and just like a dog, Tae follows Sakura's orders and even goes after her when she asks her company for some drinks for the other girls.

Sakura cares a lot for Tae because she knows that in some of her actions she can make them discover that Franchouchou are zombies, but it does not bear fruit due to her own clumsiness that makes Arata take a photo of Tae's head flying from her body during episode 6 of Revenge. After the flood of Saga, Tae sneaks out of Franchouchou to go for food that was being given to the refugees from the flood, being zombies it is not necessary to eat and therefore Sakura tells her not to eat that.

Saki Nikaido (Zombie #2)
She literally follows Saki's instructions since she sees her as the leader, she "literally" copies the actions that she does, as if she were her role model, because of her irresponsibility with Tae's head. They find out in the rap battle of episode 2. In the manga they are together on the Yoshinogari site and Tae imitates Saki's actions as a gang member.

Junko Konno (Zombie #4)
Tae intimidates her deeply, her general relationship with Tae. If Junko is present but doesn't have lines to speak in a certain scene, Tae is likely chasing her or cowering over something Tae is doing. The irony is that Junko is probably such a specific target because she always reacts with great fear, which triggers Tae's predatory instinct.

Yugiri (Zombie #5)
A woman who looks like her appears in Yugiri's flashbacks, riding in a luxurious wagon and taking a photo in an elegant dress. This suggests that Tae's ancestors were nobles of some kind.

Lily Hoshikawa (Zombie #6)
Although Lily is indifferent to Tae, as seen in episode 2, Lily treats her like her pet and even like a dog on several occasions, as seen in episode 10 when she plays with her. Tae also likes to steal Lily's squid.

Kotaro Tatsumi
It tends to bite and gnaw on anyone or anything it can get its hands on, including its own hair. However, according to Kotaro, she is totally harmless. Kotaro gives a basic description of each girl to Sakura when she first wakes up. But with Tae, he simply says that she is "The Legendary Tae Yamada". When Sakura asks again, he just repeats himself and never gives background information on her.

Although the anime has made it clear that Kotaro knows about her, no answer has yet been given to what kind of relationship the two have.

Romero
She likes to howl with him at night and be background characters while the other girls do their thing. In his zombie form, it is Romero who is in charge of taking care of Tae when she leaves the mansion, guiding her where she should go, Romero prevents Arata from taking pictures of Tae while she is dancing and takes care of Tae later when she wins 20 million yen on a boat bet on Saga.

Maria amabuki
Maria and Tae know each other well when Tae goes shopping at Saga's supermarket, Maria has enough confidence in her to tell her how her relationship with her mother Reiko is going and how she is paying for her destroyed motorcycle. Maria takes Tae to the dance contest with her new group to see how number 2 has inspired them, Tae participates after seeing Coco-san on stage and manages to win the contest award, when police officer A arrives it is taken to a speedboat racing site where Tae bets and wins 20 million yen. In the afternoon, Maria accompanies Tae to the girls' mansion to make sure that Tae does not eat or drop the money she has earned.
