Kanae Kocho

Kanae Kocho (カナエ) was a Demon Hunter and the sister of Shinobu Kochou.

Appearance
Kanae has long, straight, hair that reaches her mid-back, as well as parted fringes. Butterfly hairpins adorn either side of her head. Her eyes seem to be a lighter shade. Shinobu describes that Kanae has a delicate build, however, she is still taller than her younger sister. Presumably, Kanae may also be capable of cutting off a demon’s head.

Kanae wears the standard Demon Hunter uniform which consists of a straight-lined black jacket with a white belt and black hakama pants tucked into a fabric around her lower legs along with Japanese sandals. The haori she wears when she was alive is also the same one Shinobu wears in the series. The pattern of the haori is similar to a butterfly’s wings.

Personality
She is shown to be a kind girl with a bit of an easy going personality. In some of Shibobu and Kanao's flashbacks, she is almost always seen with a gentle smile on her face.

However, Kanae has a much stricter side, as shown in Shinobu's final moments, where she orders her younger sister to stand up and face her opponent.

Swordsmanship
She is a user of the Breath of Flower, which is a branch of the Breath of Water. However, she was never shown using this breath in the series.
