Kuno is a young Sekirei (#95) with powers not strongly suited to the often life or death combat of the Sekirei Plan. She is one of the targets of Uzume on the orders of Higa. With Minato's help she and her Ashikabi manage to leave the city alive, albeit after a harrowing experience.[2]

Appearance[]

Kuno is a short, fair-skinned girl with blue eyes and messy, chin-length blonde hair. She is slender and petite, with a small bust, which is one of the main things she is insecure about. She wears a blue long sleeved blouse with a white collar and a matching ruffled skirt, knee high black boots and white stockings that stop just above her knees.

Personality[]

Kuno has been shown as a very clumsy, yet kind person. She is also very shy and quiet. Because her power can hurt her more than her opponent, she has been hesitant about using it and is only pushed into using it once against Uzume, which wasn't very effective, and against the Disciplinary Squad, which ultimately did not really affect the outcome of the fight.[3][1] Because of her Ashikabi's similarity to Minato, Kuno is often compared to Musubi and Minato's other Sekirei in conversation, which causes her to feel insecure, often seeking confirmation from Haruka that he still loves and appreciates her after his praise of other Sekirei. She has also been shown to cry really easily. Whenever people call her a klutz, she is often seen with tears in her eyes.[3]

Abilities and Powers[]

KunoNorito

Kuno releases her power.

Her ability is "voice" or "song," with which she can either confuse their enemy or block their attacks. With her Norito she can drain the energy from her enemies while putting them to sleep. It also seems to have a weak effect for far away enemies.[1] Her regular attacks are also not very strong, like when Uzume took one directly while pursuing her. Even though she got hit directly by Kuno's attack, Uzume gets up like nothing happened.[3] Although her Norito can be a strong weapon in a fight, its downside is that it damages Kuno afterward as prolonged usage of it will cause her to cough up blood and cause her to collapse.[4]

Attacks[]

  • "Screaming Screech Cry" - Named by Haruka
  • "Swaying Song" - Named by Haruka (Norito Move)[1]

History[]

Not much is known of Kuno's past, except that she was released in the winter, wandering starved and freezing through the city. She could escape Hikari and Hibiki but eventually gave up and just waited for what to come sitting in a small alleyway. That's where Haruka found her and gave her a hot steamed bun and attracted by his kindness, Kuno started walking after him, which led her to finding that he is her destined Ashikabi.[5]

Despite successfully escaping the city and MBI, Kuno and Haruka return to the city to defend the unguarded MBI HQ and the injured Sekirei inside after the security is shut down.[6]
