Odagiri Yuko, known by her stage name Kashii Yuu, is a Japanese actress and model. She studied at Mejiro University, where she majored in English. She married actor Odagiri Joe, who is exactly 11 years her senior, on February 16, 2008, the birthday the couple shares. She reportedly gave birth to a baby boy in February 2011.

Kashii's maternal grandfather is a European-American newspaper reporter, and thus her ethnic background is ¼ European. Kashii spent her childhood in Singapore and attended elementary school there. She has been said to have exactly the same dimensions for her right and left side of the face, which led to a German doctor wanting to use her face as a specimen for research uses.

Kashii got her start in the entertainment business as an in-house model for the Japanese teen magazine mc Sister in 2001. Her first acting role was in the movie adaptation of Lorelei: The Witch of the Pacific Ocean in which she played the title character.

She and actor Odagiri Joe began dating after co-starring in 2006 movie "Pavilion Sanshouo", and tied the knot on February 16, 2008. They had their first son in February 2011, and welcomed their second son in April 2014. On April 24th, 2015 it was announced that the second son had passed away at one year and 9 days old, due to strangulation ileus. Their third son was born on August 22, 2016. Edit Biography
