Description
Kirika Kokuryū is the daughter of Kazuma Kokuryū, the president of the powerful Dragon Bank, and serves as a director on the company's board. She is a symbolic figure within the organization, widely known by the nickname Kirihime. While she assumed her directorship at the young age of twenty, many attribute this position to family connections rather than her own merit. Her creator imagined her to be around twenty-three years old at the time of her first appearance.
In terms of appearance, Kirika possesses a beauty that is often compared to that of a fashion model. A notable aspect of her visual presentation is that she wears a different dress in each of her appearances, a deliberate creative choice that involved a real stylist selecting and dressing mannequins in actual clothes and accessories to be used as references for her outfits.
Her personality is defined by arrogance, pride, and a strictly businesslike demeanor in her interactions with others. She has little patience for those she deems inefficient or beneath her station, dismissing conversations with lower-level employees as a waste of time. Kirika only respects what she refers to as capable people, and she is known to ruthlessly cut ties with anyone she does not consider beneficial to herself or to Dragon Bank. She possesses a keen eye for judging people's talents and has a possessive streak, which she inherited from her father. This manifests as a selfish excitement for the process of acquiring what she wants and bringing talented individuals under her control.
Motivated by a desire to expand her own power and influence, Kirika becomes obsessed with Haru Tennōji and Manabu Taira after witnessing their capabilities. She attempts to bring them under her sway, initially by agreeing to provide one hundred million yen in funding for their venture, though she demands a controlling fifty-one percent stake in the company in return. Later, she introduces a sidelined employee named Tōru Hebijima to the protagonists, encouraging his transfer to their company Trillion Game to assist in their business expansion.
Kirika’s relationships are marked by strategic calculation and familial tension. She has a complex and adversarial connection with her father, Kazuma Kokuryū, and harbors an intense dislike for being treated merely as a pawn in his schemes. Her decision to help Hebijima transfer out of Dragon Bank becomes the starting point of their open conflict. After Haru rejects both a takeover offer from her father and a marriage proposal to her, Kirika escalates their rivalry dramatically. She acquires a company called D-REX Japan, assumes its presidency, and mobilizes the nearly limitless financial resources of the Kokuryū family to directly challenge and attempt to crush Trillion Game.
Kirika is a highly capable individual in her own right. She is multilingual, fluent in both Mandarin and French. Her business acumen is sharp, having absorbed the strategies of imperial knowledge and management from her father, which she uses to skillfully navigate the corporate world. She is a calculating strategist who uses her intelligence, charm, and ruthless efficiency to pursue her goals, driven by a love for challenges and a desire to have absolute control.
