She is quite petite and dainty for her species, but she possesses the biggest heart. Hojo lives for kisses..and isn't shy about asking for them.

Apartment/ Condo life is not in her best interest as neighbors could understandably take issue. Hojo has gotten her taste of freedom from her cage and takes full advantage of that time.
