Keyvan Azh of German Focus regarded Tokyo as a one-dimensional protagonist relying on the "cheap stylistic device" of tell, don't show. Meanwhile, Alfonso Rivadeneyra García of Peruvian newspaper El Comercio disliked the hypersexualization of Tokyo in part 3 as fan service. John Doyle of The Globe and Mail saw Corbero "as a strong female lead, her character doesn't conform to much hat you'd see in an equivalent British or American crime drama". She regarded Tokyo as a "free soul touching every companion and approaching them in different ways: Rio with passionate tenderness, the Professor with cold respect, Nairobi with joy and attunement, and Berlin with challenging discipline". Sandra Faginas of Spanish newspaper La Razón praised the character, saying Tokyo was "a wonderful cocktail of passion and reason" that was "born splendidly in script". Actor Álvaro Morte (the Professor) regarded Tokyo as one of the Professor's favourite gang members, since both characters confide in and confront each other like best friends despite being opposite sexes.
TOKYO SCHOOL LIFE H SCENE HOW TO
Corberó described Tokyo at the beginning of the show as "a girl who really lacks self-esteem, has been very lonely, has had a very bad time has not had a father figure at home", resulting in a vulnerability that the character doesn't know how to express. Úrsula Corberó eventually landed the role for bringing a playful energy to the role her voice was heavily factored in during casting, as she was the first voice the audience hears in the show. The producers found Tokyo among the hardest characters to develop, as they were originally looking for an older actress to play the character who had nothing to lose before meeting the Professor. She doesn’t like being told what to do and shows dislike for Berlin in the first series. She shares a good friendship with Nairobi, the two having gotten drunk together many times.
Tokyo is a flirty and rebellious character, and she has a relationship with Rio, that stops and starts throughout the first heist. The Professor asks each of the robbers to choose a city name to hide their identities during the robbery and she chooses Tokyo. Together with the other seven robbers chosen for the heist, she is taken to a secluded villa where they plan the heist for five months. She was hired by the Professor to help in carrying out a heist of the Royal Mint in Madrid. Her mother tried to hand her over to the police before she was involved in the heist, but later died of cardiac arrest, potentially from stress. Tokyo is a young thief on the run from the police after a failed robbery in which her boyfriend was killed.
