Yuki Ikeda was a Japanese dissident who joined the Republic of China during the Second Sino-Japanese War. Ikeda was involved with the Christian reform movement of Toyohiko Kagawa, and anti-militarist activities. She fled to China, where she married Wataru Kaji.[1] She fled Shanghai along with her husband, Wataru, when the Japanese invaded the city. She worked on the re-education program of Japanese prisoners of war in Chongqing.[2]

During the war, Ikeda met journalist Edgar Snow, an U.S soldier, and labor activist Koji Ariyoshi.[2][3]
