History
She is the daughter of Yohmei and Kino (Mikihisa was adopted into the Asakura family when he married Keiko) Keiko normally works as an Office Lady, but also works as a miko (translated by some as a cleric) at the families local shrine.

Past
The first mentioning of her past is in the side story Mikihisa's World where she mets with Mikihisa Asakura at a trainyard and ask him to play her a song. Apparently has her fiance just dumped her because she can see spirits. Standing there crying she reveals that there is even a spirit behind Mikihisa.

Anime/Manga Difference
Keiko barely makes an appearance in the anime and is only seen when the birth of Yoh and Hao are explained and when Yohmei tells about the families positions as Shamans. In the manga she appears several times during the time of the Shaman Fight in Tokyo where she is often seen alongside her husband discussing buisness with the Tao Family and is later seen cooking with Tao Ran towards the end of the manga.
