Description
Natsumi Kyono is the seventh Spirit to appear in the story, known by the code name Witch. Her true form is that of a young girl with green hair and eyes, though she initially presented herself as a glamorous adult woman because she believed only that appearance would make people notice her. Her background involves a difficult family life: after her father left, she lived with a verbally abusive mother, and in a moment of desperation she accepted a Sephira Crystal and became a Spirit, using her new power to transform her mother into a frog but stopping short of killing her. This experience left her with deep self-loathing and a distorted self-image.
Personality-wise, Natsumi is defined by extreme negativity and lack of confidence. She perceives everything, including herself, through a pessimistic lens and has trouble believing compliments. She is also mischievous and playful, often using her shapeshifting abilities to tease those around her. Her motivations revolve around a desire for acceptance and validation; she craves attention and affection but feels that her natural appearance is inadequate. This insecurity drives her to rely on her adult form as a shield.
In the story, Natsumi first appears in an abandoned amusement park outside Tengu City, where she meets Shido Itsuka. She uses her powers to harass him and attempt to turn him into a criminal, but Shido persistently shows her kindness and reassures her that she is fine as she is. Eventually, she allows him to seal her powers and moves in with him and the other Spirits. Her role becomes that of a supporting protagonist, and she often uses her retained ability to shift into her adult form to tease her companions.
Her key relationships include Shido, who serves as her primary ally and the person who convinces her of her intrinsic worth beyond appearances. She also forms a close friendship with Yoshino, a fellow Spirit, whom she admires greatly and treats with near-reverence. Through these bonds, Natsumi gradually learns to accept herself and becomes more confident.
Her notable abilities are centered on shapeshifting. Her Angel, named Haniel, allows her to transform herself and any object or person within a range of about one kilometer. She can also fly using a broom-like weapon and can send targets into a separate dimension through a mirror, where they are held in temporal stasis. Even after her powers are sealed by Shido, she retains the ability to shift into her adult form. Her self-loathing once served as a fuel for her power, but as she grows more confident, she learns to accept her true form while still keeping her magical capabilities.
