Later that night, Kyoko is shocked to find out that she put on weight and cancelled any future appreciation days. Reborn performs the Reverse One Ton Mallet technique on Kyoko and Haru, and the two believe the previous events to be a dream when they wake up. To prevent the two from dying, Reborn shoots them both with a Dying Will Bullet, and the two are both reborn due to their regret of only eating one piece of cake on their appreciation day. The two take an interest in I-Pin's Gyoza Buns, but both fall unconscious due to the interference of Bianchi's Poison Cooking. Kyoko instantly becomes friends with Haru, and the two eat their cakes at Tsuna's house. While in a bakery, Kyoko encounters Tsuna much to her embarrassment, she explains that it's an appreciation day where she takes the third Sunday of a month to eat as much cake as she likes.Ĭoincidentally, Haru Miura, who was with Tsuna in the bakery, also has a similar appreciation day. Sometime later, Kyoko assumes that the previous events were merely a dream. Reborn takes Kyoko out of Dying Will Mode with his Reverse One Ton Mallet, which he uses to knock the Dying Will Bullet out of Kyoko's head. She forces Nana to take back her "no-good son" comment to the point of her foaming at the mouth and fainting.

Kyoko is brought back to life in Dying Will Mode, and she reveals her regret for allowing Nana to belittle Tsuna. Kyoko shoots herself in the forehead, revealing the "party bullet" to be a lie, as the gun was actually loaded with a Dying Will Bullet. Tsuna assures Kyoko to disregard his mother, and Reborn changes the subject, suggesting that Tsuna and Kyoko play Russian roulette, which Kyoko agrees to as she believes that it sounds fun after Reborn reveals that the gun contains a "party bullet" and is completely safe. They are interrupted by Nana Sawada, who is surprised that Tsuna had a girl in his room, and seemed grateful that her "no-good son" finally found a girlfriend, which Kyoko quickly denies, though seems to be angered by Nana for calling her own son a loser. Kyoko visits Reborn at [Tsuna's house, where she is paid back by Reborn, she assumes that Tsuna and Reborn are brothers, and later cousins, and believes that Tsuna's mouth foam is fake when Reborn strangles him for being touched. Sometime later, Kyoko visits a coffee shop, where she comes across Reborn once again, and offers to pay for his espresso, oblivious that Reborn had attempted to shoot an employee. When Kensuke is defeated by Tsuna in the kendo match, Kyoko expresses her admiration towards Tsuna, and apologizes to him for previously running off, as she believes that Tsuna's love confession was merely a joke, while Kyoko remains unaware of Tsuna's feelings for her, the two become friends. Kyoko doesn't take the kendo match very well at first, as she is named a "prize" by Kensuke for whoever wins the kendo match, and she attempts to lunge for him, only for her friends to restrain her. Kyoko later attends the kendo match against Tsuna and Kensuke Mochida the next day, by force from Hana Kurokawa and another unnamed friend, who tease her for "crying" when coming across Dying Will Tsuna, and being in love with Kensuke, despite her rebuttal. This fails as she runs away out of fear due to Tsuna's loss of clothes and wounded face. Kyoko carries on to school, where she is quickly stopped by Tsuna in Dying Will Mode, who asks Kyoko to become his girlfriend. She first takes interest in Reborn, who she deems to be cute, and doesn't show any concern over Reborn bluntly explaining his status as a hitman.

This is despite Kyoko being hardly aware of Tsuna's existence, though she was the first girl to have ever talked to Tsuna. In Namimori Junior High, Kyoko is considered to be the most popular student and is greatly admired by Tsuna, who considers her the only reason to attend school. Kyoko had also admitted to being somewhat distant to her cousins when she first believed that Reborn was Tsuna's cousin. Kyoko's family, besides Ryohei, is somewhat unexplained, with only subtle mentions to her parents. When she was a child, she dreamed of becoming a prima ballerina and dancing in Swan Lake in France, though she also stated she'd like to become a police officer as a second option. Not wanting to see Ryohei hurt again, she asked him not to get into fights again, something that Ryohei promised but is unable to keep to this day due to his position. As a result, Ryohei was injured when he tried to protect her and the injury left a scar on his head, making Kyoko feel guilty. When Kyoko was a child, she was used as a bait to lure out his brother, Ryohei Sasagawa, by upperclassmen who disliked him.
