Natsume Amano (Japanese: 天野ナツメ Amano Natsume) is one of the main characters in the Yo-kai Watch series, who first appeared in Yo-kai Watch Shadowside: The Return of the Oni King and Yo-kai Watch Shadowside, and as a playable character in Yo-kai Watch 4.
She wields the Yo-kai Watch Elda, which was given to her by Whisper to originally stop the Oni Rasen from invading Sakura Motomachi. It has the ability to summon Yo-kai via Keystones, in a similar manner to the original Yo-kai Watch.
Her parents are Nathan Adams and Katie Forester, and she is thus the older sister of Keisuke. Natsume is also the reincarnation of Shuka after her awakening.
In Yo-kai Watch: Wibble Wobble, she has her Rank Z Awoken form called Oni-hime Kakusei Natsume, and is a playable Yo-kai of the Charming tribe.

Physical Traits
Natsume is a young girl with dark brown eyes and hair.
She wears her hair in braids, similar to how her great-grandmother used to when she was young, and also wears a high school uniform consisting of a white shirt, a pale yellow vest, a blue blazer, a pink bow-tie, black skirt and knee-socks; and brown shoes.
In her semi-awoken form, her head grows a pair of small horns, gains long sharp red colored nails, and her eyes become a deep red color. She also sports a deep red eye shadow like markings on her eyelids and emits a dark blue aura (due to the effects of the oni tribe barrier). Her hair becomes loose of their braids when exhibiting her powers. In SS047, she was shown to emit a pink aura instead of a blue one.
In her fully awoken state, she is seen to have pointed ears, longer horns, a red dress with a purple ribbon belt, a red bindi on her forehead and her hair has taken a new appearance.
Personality
Natsume has a similar personality to her father in that she cares for both her human and Yo-kai friends. Ever since her life was saved by a certain someone when she was a child, she's determined to always help those who are in need.
She can sometimes get irritated with pushy and overbearing Yo-kai, like Micchy, similarly to how Nate was annoyed with Whisper.

Shortly after that, she cured the darkness in his heart by showing him that his parents cared for him and what would've happened if he opened the door on his birthday and when he came home from school.

Douketsu
Her homeroom teacher at school, a subordinate of Shutendoji and a powerful Oni tribe yo-kai. Natsume learnt of his true identity during the Jorogumo incident. Upon finding out she was Shuka's reincarnation, he swore loyalty to her alongside Shutendoji. He even went as far as sacrificing himself when Soranaki was planning to attack Natsume with the humans he was controlling.
Shuka
Shuka is the past life of Natsume's soul and "the princess" Shutendoji and Douketsu were looking for. Natsume was initially scared of what Shuka was like, based on the very little knowledge she had on Shuka. Despite being scared, Natsume was determined to awaken her power in order to put a stop to Soranaki. In SS047, she manages to awaken Shuka's spirit within herself by recalling the thoughts Shuka had before reincarnating. In SS049, Shuka's spirit leaves Natsume's body.

Picking up after the fourth Yo-kai Watch movie, Natsume and her friends Touma and Akinori start the Yo-kai Detective Agency. Upon the events of SS001, her younger brother, Keisuke, joins the agency.
The Reveal
Natsume in process of awakening
In SS037, Keisuke was kidnapped by Shutendoji and Douketsu, who wanted to trade him for Touma's Sacred Armory in order to awaken the Princess and take over the Yokai World. Shutendoji guided Natsume and the others into a magical field that enhanced the powers of Oni tribe yo-kai. As soon as she took a step inside the barrier, Natsume began feeling strange, even showing signs of her eyes glowing red (the barrier itself made her turn into an evil malicious girl).
With much effort, they managed to save Keisuke. However, Shutendoji drove them into a corner. It was then that an agent of Soranaki appeared and quickly defeated Shutendoji and Douketsu. When it set its sights on Natsume, a mysterious energy awakened inside of her. This "something" easily vanquished Soranaki's agent with overwhelming Oni tribe power. Afterwards, Natsume returned to normal and Haruya knelt in front of her, claiming that she is the reincarnation of Shuka and thus the Princess that he was looking for. When Haruya stated that now the princess has been found, they can conquer both the human and yo-kai worlds. However, Natsume declined the plan as she had no intention of conquering the yo-kai world, especially after what he and Douketsu put her and her friends through.
In SS038, She is seen walking to Shirayuki shrine alongside Haruya and Ganryuu Shimanouchi. She was shown to be annoyed with the way with Haruya. She later to them to leave for in which they complied. Haruya explains that the magic field that enhanced the power of Oni tribe yo-kai was the reason for her temporary awakening as the Princess. She will only regain Shuka's memories and full powers once they collect all 5 Sacred Armory.
In SS043, Natsume had the strange feeling of being watched. To the point of having Micchy and Haruya act as her bodyguards and yet to impress her. Later in the evening, she is being chased by civilians who seem to be possessed, which later turned out to be the work of Soranaki who claims to have found Shuka. But Natsume rebuts that she isn't Shuka. At the sound of her scream, Douketsu, Shutendoji and Micchy went to her rescue. Soon, after Douketsu shields Natsume and becomes infected by the Soranaki virus, he and Shutendoji disappear to an inter dimension.
In SS044, Natsume and the others are shocked to find out Douketsu was killed by Shutendoji. Natsume decides to fully awaken Shuka's powers in order to put an end to Soranaki's havoc.
In the following episodes, after that, she is shown to be very desperate to awaken as Shuka to stop Soranaki.
In SS047, Natsume was able to finally remember Shuka's final thoughts and awaken her spirit in order to blast Soranaki. However, she was later captured by Soranaki.
In SS048, after being captured by Soranaki, he forces her to remember about their past together and soon it all comes back to her. Afterwards, Natsume blasts her way out of Soranaki, finding the "Spirit" that she needed to fully awaken. Natsume brings Touma and Akinori along to show them that Shuka and Kuuten (Soranaki) used to be in love with one another until Kuuten betrayed Shuka and killed her father, having him thrown in an underground dungeon. As Kuuten served his time in imprisonment, growing full of hatred, and becoming Soranaki. She then announces that she wouldn't let Soranaki have his way and decides to protect both worlds.
In SS049, Shuka's spirit leaves Natsume's body after stopping Soranaki/Kuuten and finding out the truth behind Kuuten's imprisonment. Sometime after the battle, she and the rest of the agency were winding down with Fudou Myouou Boy hanging about. Natsume displayed to Keisuke what his past life would've looked like which he retorted. She is later seen smiling whilst Keisuke was getting back at Whisper (Shadowside) for sending the prank notice.

Etymology
"Natsume" (Japanese: ナツメ) is a Japanese given name that can be taken from "natsume" (Japanese: 棗 jujube, a Chinese fruit), among other things.
It's also likely taken from "natsu" (Japanese: 夏 summer), being one of the four seasons, which Akinori, Touma, and Haruya are also named for.

- Her second voice actress, Aoi Yuki, also portrays the character of Hailey Anne in the Japanese version of the Yo-kai Watch Anime series.
