Kiruko

Kiruko (キルコ) is the one of the main characters in the Heavenly Delusion series.

Character Profile
Kiruko is a girl who runs a handyman shop in Nakano, Tokyo. She accepts a bodyguard request to take Maru to "Heaven." She is a skilled survivor and an expert with a gun. She used to live in an orphanage in Asakusa.

Prior to the events of the series, the brain of her brother Haruki was transplanted into her. She has been searching for the doctor who performed the operation as well as the man who served as her mentor before the accident, Robin.

Appearance
Kiruko is a girl in her late adolescence. She has brown eyes and brown hair that reaches to her upper back. One of her most noticeable features are her bushy black eyebrows. She sports a white jacket with purple hemming, round-neck black inside shirt, low waist tight fitting blue jeans with a gun holster attached on the right side and light brown high-top sneakers. She received the jacket as a gift from Robin while she was still Haruki.

After the surgery her hair changed from black to brown when it grew back. She also acquired a scar on her forehead and a bullet wound in the back of her head, both normally covered by hair.

Maru
She cares deeply about Maru as a person and wants to see him reach Heaven for his own sake. Their relationship is not merely transactional. While she has rejected his romantic confessions multiple times (twice in the manga but implied to be more) she still shows some interest in him, but does not believe she is worthy of his affection.

Maru's fighting ability has saved the two multiple times and left Kiruko feeling inadequate as a bodyguard and not worthy of Maru's affection.

Robin Inazaki
She admired Robin as a father figure while growing up around the Asakusa race track. She refused to believe he was dead after recovering from surgery and set out to find him, seeing Maru's job proposition as an opportunity to do so.

Skills and Abilities
She has been described by Maru as an excellent marksman. She was able to blast the head off a charging dog in a single shot. She described the beam's power as being capable of penetrating any surface thinner than a human arm.

She has shown the ability to recall some of Kiriko's memories.

She is a rather tactical fighter with the ability to quickly deduce how enemy abilities function and how to exploit them.

Trivia
