Shigure interacts with other various characters throughout the Seraph of the End series, which affects herself and the story. This article details Shigure's relationships with the other characters.

Guren Ichinose
The leader of Shigure's squad and the Moon Demon Company, and a member of the prestigious Ichinose family. She cares deeply about Guren's well-being and tends to dote him with extreme loyalty as his retainer. Attending school with him, Shigure had heard from her father how Guren was regarded as a talent who only appears once in a thousand year. Shigure felt herself and Sayuri should be the ones protecting their master, yet they ended up being protected by him. Willing to enact reprisals on Shinya for hitting Guren, at being told to go elsewhere since he was taking a detour, Shigure questioned if there is anything they should be worried about. Although Shigure is a quiet type, she does not speak often when around Guren, but would usually hang out with Sayuri. She appears willing to follow just about any order Guren gives her. Shigure would also sometimes praise her master's well thought-out plan right after he defeated the nineteenth progenitor, Mel Stefano. Shigure keeps her feelings of love for Guren to herself as unrequited. She wants to be useful for her master and knows that strength alone is not enough to support him whenever he is in trouble. This also goes along the line of wanting to bear the burden and sharing her master's pain alongside him. Guren is the only one who can break the cold gaze from Shigure whenever the two are around each other and would also cry about his injuries besides Sayuri. She would go so far as to disobey her master's order if necessary which demonstrates just how much she truly cares about him. Shigure is quite observant and keen about what turmoil Guren must be going through as she sees him struggling mentally. On the other hand, she is overly protective of Guren whenever someone tries to make fun of him and look down on him because of his family status. He was the one who rejected the idea of allowing her and Sayuri to participate in the Kiju experiment, but only himself should be the subject for it, caring for the well-being for his retainers.

She supported him at the battle of Shinjuku by discreetly setting a kunai based trap around Mika when he was fighting Guren. She followed Guren's order and sprung the trap using her green wire to send a large array of her kunai at Mika.

Norito Goshi
A member of Guren's squad since he was 16 back in high school prior to the apocalypse. A joker and member of the prestigious Goshi family.

Sayuri Hanayori
A member of Guren's squad since she was 16 back in high school prior to the apocalypse. She is often seen together with Shigure and Guren. Empathizing with Sayuri, she offers a hankie for her tears that her important master Guren was mocked, and Shigure shares her feelings about it. Asking for Sayuri to please endure it, Shigure reminds her they are to protect and comfort Guren.

Shinya Hīragi
A friend from her high school days. Learning that Shinya had left a mark on Guren's face, Shigure moved out stating that she was going to kill that Hīragi trash.

Mito Jūjō
Mito is a member of Guren's squad since she was 15 back in high school prior to the apocalypse. During the selection exams, Shigure found Mito was her opponent and asked whether Guren granted permission to defeat her. Questioned what the follower of a coward could do against someone from the Jujo house, Shigure answered for Mito to mock her master again and she will kill her. Considering Mito's red hair of the Jujo house, Shigure called her a dictator as she readied a kunai. She appears to be tsundere toward Guren, but he is not interested. A member of the prestigious Jūjō family.

Mahiru Hīragi
