There is a lot to say, so I'll do it one post at a time. I'll start with the only minus I can see, so we may move on to the complimentary parts ^ ^

- "Shiori is known to have a weak constitution, vomiting one liter of blood a day since childhood."

That's... pretty horrible to imagine, let alone live everyday your entire life ^ ^; It's also bound to be terribly taxing on her body and heart, thus not eally compatible with the supernatural vitality and sweet personality Shiori consistently demonstrates (the mere fact she lived this long in her condition is a miracle in itself).

My advice in general would be to carefully weigh what the character should reasonably be able to endure physically and psychologically, and the consequences these hardships would likely have on the person they are, how they experience life, and how they see the world around them.

Nothing is without consequences in real life, and immersively weaving causes and effects in the character's heart and life is what makes them feel like a real person in a real world, and leads the audience to strongly relate and care about them and their story as if they effectively were.

To put it simply, characters don't need to suffer a lot to be endearing, they most of all need to feel real. And to this end, immersive details with natural consequences is the best way to go ;)
