OVA
Description
Kianu is a vampire-like alien from a dying extraterrestrial race, arriving on Earth with Kimera and Ginzu to perpetuate their species, yet conflicted over Kimera's intended role. His striking humanoid beauty features ebony hair, contrasting sharply with Ginzu's monstrous form. The OVA adaptation presents him with classical vampire imagery—dark long hair and a cape—while the manga depicts a more subdued aesthetic with a regular long coat. A distinct bell bracelet chimes identically to Osamu's bell necklace, forging an auditory link.
Driven to prevent Kimera from becoming the unwilling "Mother" essential for propagation but seen by her as a fate worse than death, Kianu pursues her across Earth with lethal intent. He believes killing her is necessary to spare her suffering and avert catastrophe for humanity. To survive, he drains humans of blood and bodily fluids, exhibiting a potent healing factor. Regenerating a lower arm required consuming multiple humans' life force, an act accompanied by expressed guilt.
Flashbacks reveal a compassionate past bond with Kimera on their home planet. Kianu offered his own blood to sustain her when she refused to consume others, highlighting a protective affection. This history intensifies the tragedy of his Earth mission, where he confronts Kimera, explaining her survival risks planetary downfall. He violently clashes with Ginzu, who seeks to exploit Kimera's hermaphroditic biology. During a battle in a converted church, Ginzu reveals they share a human mother forcibly taken to their planet and taunts Kianu about lacking "a man's functions," implying physiological limitations preventing him from replacing Kimera's role.
Mortally wounded and unable to free Kimera from the Mother System, Kianu teleports Osamu to her location. He implores Osamu to kill Kimera, framing it as necessary to save Earth. The collapsing structure seemingly kills both Kianu and Ginzu, though Kianu's demise remains ambiguous. His character embodies moral ambiguity, balancing ruthless actions against humans with tragic loyalty to Kimera. Regret surfaces over the killing required for survival, and his final plea underscores a commitment to Kimera's autonomy, even at the cost of their species' continuity and his own life.
