Kanata works as an intergalactic police officer, partnered with Lan. Their professional partnership extends into a personal romantic relationship; they live together as domestic partners on a peaceful planet, sharing household duties and showing mutual affection off-duty. During law enforcement missions across the galaxy, Kanata and Lan frequently encounter wacky and chaotic misadventures.
Kanata exhibits a hot-headed personality and strongly prefers deploying heavy artillery on missions. Her key supernatural ability allows her to transform into any form or object, which she uses strategically. This shapeshifting capacity becomes essential when both officers are abducted by aliens demanding a demonstration of human mating rituals. Kanata reacts protectively, refusing to allow any male near Lan. Instead, she uses her ability to morph into a male form herself to fulfill the aliens' demand.
Within the police hierarchy, their relationship is acknowledged by superiors but rarely emphasized. Command focus typically centers on the significant collateral damage resulting from Kanata and Lan's operational methods. The franchise's additional seasons, movies, OVAs, and spin-offs do not document further appearances, background history, or character development beyond this established role and relationship.
