Koganei Kaoru In the manga and video game, Koganei has blue hair and blue eyes. He
wears a white T-shirt with a vest over it, as well as shorts and
sneakers. He wears different sorts of street clothes throughout the rest
of the manga. Under a bandanna he wears tied around his right wrist is a
suicide scar.
In the anime, he has brown hair and eyes, he wears a necklace
with the similar color to Kogun Anki, and an attire similar to the manga
and game.
Personality
Little is known of his early life, but given that in a manga
flashback Kaoru was seen attempting to commit suicide, it can be assumed
he was a lonely child until he met Kurei. Kaoru is the youngest member
of Hokage, and as such, his personality reflects his age. Even in
battle, Kaoru is playful, and sometimes has a tendency to toy with his
opponents as if the battle were a game.
Part in Story
Kurei's Mansion Arc
He first appears to kidnap Yanagi, alongside Mokuren. After
successfully doing so, he holds guard at Kurei's mansion, later fighting
Tokiya Mikagami.
Before the fight between Team Hokage and Team Uruha Maboroshi,
Koganei joined Team Hokage because they are short of one member due to
Fuko's inability to fight and to protect Yanagi, but Recca, Domon, and
Mikagami still disapproves Koganeis proposal but allowed him to fight
with Shiru. Koganei proves that he can fight very well and decided to
fight again with Mukoren but is tricked and then trapped inside him and
absorb his energy. Later, Kouganei is freed by Miyagi by defeating
Mokuren. On the orund between Hokage and Uruha Ma, Koganei Fights
against Tsukishiro who weilds two madogous, Oboro which makes him
invisible and Kaigetsu. Before the finals, a mysteroius old man, which
will be revealed as Kokou, in forms him about Kogan Ankis Sixth form, Mu
but cannot tell how to do it because he "forgot" how to. Later that
night Koganei persuades Saicho to come with him to check out the stage
to be used but ends up with Saicho being severely wounded by Joker. On
the finals, Koganei fights Joker to avenge Saicho. While fighting,
Koganei experiences minor changes with Kougan Anki and thought that this
was failed forms but later learns that Kougan Anko can create many
other forms and because he uses shortcuts when changing Kougan Anki, he
misses the true path on forming Mu so he formed Kougan Anki using the
long way around starting with Kiba, then Ryu, then Kyoku, then Mikazuki
and finally An. This leads to disassembling Kogan Anki making it
"formless". Kogan then wraps the crystal ball holding Kogan Anki
together around Joker and then reforming it making all the pieces pierce
through Joker defeating him.
Sealed Lands Arc
SODOM Arc
In SODOM, Koganei's first real opponent was Gaou at the Biodome, who
was still seeking revenge against Domon. However, Koganei managed to
defeat Gaou. Later, he faced off against Z to get the last data disc,
which he succeeded in doing. Inside Hell or Heaven, Koganei ran into
Joker, who was seeking a rematch. However, the two end up pairing up
against Kirito and her pet Shiguma. The defeat Kirito, but Joker
sacrifices himself to defeat Kadotsu, who had survived Kurei's attack.
Koganei saves Kagerou from Mori Koran's minions, but is later
overpowered as the main body comes out of the cocoon. At the end of the
series he goes to live in the past with Kurei.
Koganei is very good at solving puzzles, and can transform Kougan
Anki in 0.6 seconds, while it usually takes a skilled user 10 seconds to
transform. He is also amazingly athletic, able to outmanuever a
genetically altered Shiju who has lion cells in his body. Kaoru's
greatest ability is his quickness and agility.
Kōgan Anki (鋼金暗器 Golden Blade): Kougan Anki is a
"puzzle madōgu". It is a bladed weapon that can change into six
different forms, the last one being only discovered later on in the
series. Its primary stone has the symbol gold/metal (金, kin/kane)
written on it. Its six forms are (in order):
The
first, base stance of the Kōgon Anki is a large pole-arm type weapon,
with grip-handles in the middle, and a large clubbing end on the bottom.
Its the form that is often used by Koganei. The blade is a thicker
version of the kind found on a naginata
The
second stance, The Chain-Sickle, or Kusari-Gama. It is a very potent
weapon, capable of disrming, entrapping, or directly harming the enemy
from a distance. Next to Kiba, its the other form Koganei oftenlly use.
The
fourth stance of the Kōgon Anki, The Boomerang. When thrown, the
boomerang moves through the air so fast that it creates a buzzing noise.
It returns to its users hands both after impact, or after a miss.
The
fifth stance of the Kōgon Anki, The Bow and Arrow. The arrows seem to
have no apparent storage space, although they are made of the same red
and gold material as the rest of the Kōgon Anki.
The
illusionary sixth stance of the Kōgon Anki. When the Kōgon Anki enters
all five of its forms quickly and in order, then the way to make it into
Mu is revealed. When it is transformed into this stance, the weapon
separates into dozens of pieces of the puzzle madōgu, including the main
crystal, still attached to the chain. The crystal is thrown at the
opponent, and when the user wills it, the Kōgon Anki attempts to re-form
to the first stance, causing the bulk of it to pass violently through
the opponent. This form was only seen in the manga due to the fact that
the battle between Koganei and Joker was cut short at the animated
series.
