| Vampiric Nature | When unsealed, Moka exhibits her vampiric nature by displaying aristocratic behavior and a disdainful attitude toward other yōkai. She is particularly ruthless towards those who harm Tsukune or Outer Moka. |
| Merge of Personalities | By the end of the story, Moka no longer has her Rosario, and her demeanor becomes softer. The merging of her two souls is symbolized by the pale tinge of pink at the tips of her hair. |

She represents the type of character with multiple personalities, innocent appearance, white skin, beautiful face, long pink hair, plus sometimes childish expressions that make many students of the school she transferred notice and covet her.

However, she does her tasks and cooks less well than her sister, who is more capable and obedient at work. She is also less warm and approachable than the latter.
