Appearance[]
Human[]
Akane looked like a high school student, she would use her kendo uniform whenever she had a competition.
Magical Girl[]
As a Magical Girl, Akane has short light brown hair with a red, white, and black ribbon tied to it. The ribbon has a pink lotus at its base. She has lavender eyes and red makeup on her upper eyelids.
She wears a black ribbon tied around her neck. Akane is dressed in a green kimono, with white patterns on it. The inside of it is white with green edges. She also has a Sode (samurai shoulder pads) and Kote (Gauntlets).
Her Sode consists of a black main body, with gold trims around the ends and is tied with purple leather strings and white fur at the end.
Underneath her kimono, Akane wears a white dress akin to a sarashi. The bottom of the dress is pink, with a red circle on the left side of the dress.
Personality[]
As a result of losing her entire family, Akane suffers from extreme PTSD, not even being able to think clearly and can only speak more than a few words at a time. She is obsessed with finding her family's killer and killing her to avenge them. She is very violent in her methods, attacking every Magical Girl that she comes across to see if they are the killer and if not brutally interrogating them to find out if they know anything. She also has no hesitation to kill anyone who gets in her way or otherwise annoys her. She prefers to work alone, though this might be because of her lack of ability to communicate with others.
Prior to losing her family, Akane was actually quite calm and level headed. According to her family members, she liked competitions but hated to lose. However, she was opposed to her family using their enhanced strength as Magical Girls in a kendo tournament, considering it unfair for others. She also took a certain level of pride in her status as a Magical Girl, as well as her sword skills.
Magic[]
Can cut anything she sees.
As long as the target is within her sight, Akane can cut the object, ignoring both space and the distance between her and her target. She can cut anything with her magic regardless of the size or type, and it is even possible for her to use her magic on light.
In order for her to use her magic, her sword must be wound up first. The cut will register once the sword is swung down. Therefore, it takes time for Akane to swing the sword again for another cut.
It is possible to dodge the slices from her sword by moving away from the area the slice is going to before Akane is able finish the process of slicing, or by blocking the original target of the slice with something else like a shield.[1]
Special Item(s)[]
- Japanese Sword: Akane's weapon that can slice through anything as long as she can see her target. It is described as being a wakizashi sword.
