Taki is Sekirei #65, and debuts during the first match of the Stage Three battles of the Sekirei Plan together with the other selected members of Mikogami's party. She was shown using her powers over mist to enable Mikogami to set out and search for the Jinki during the match.[1] Some time (concurrently with the final/fourth match of the Third Stage) later she is seen masking the area around her Ashikabi with mist during the confrontation between him and Higa Izumi shortly after the beginning of Higa's attack on Izumo Inn.[2] She is terminated in one hit by Hatae during the Fourth Stage of the Sekirei Plan.[3]
Appearance[]
Taki is a curvaceous female Sekirei with long, straight grey hair and violet eyes. She wears an elegant white dress which has long, flowing sleeves and a bottle-shaped cutout that reveals roughly half of her breasts, and her midriff and stomach to just below her belly button. There is a belt-like X-shaped piece of black fabric that appears to secure the dress at waist level.
Personality[]
Taki's general demeanour is somewhat similar to her occasional partner Akitsu, as she more often than not is calm, composed, and silent. She seems more laid back and casual than Akitsu however, and is not afraid to be somewhat cocky or showy if she deems the situation appropriate. As with most Sekirei, she loves her Ashikabi, and does her best to support and protect him at all costs.
Abilities and Powers[]
Taki has the ability to generate tremendously thick mist, which she mainly uses in a supportive, long-range role to aid her allies in landing surprise attacks, or as a defensive or evasive measure to throw off her opponents, and allow for her allies to move around without being confronted, or escape. Her Norito temporarily boosts her powers greatly, as it does for all Sekirei.
Attacks:
- Kiri no Tobari (氷霧, Curtain of Mist)[1]
Norito: "Mist of my pledge, hide my Ashikabi from enemy soldiers!"
Anime and Manga differences[]
- In Episode 11 of Sekirei Pure Engagement, she is shown fighting alongside Akitsu against Homura after Minaka essentially places a bounty on the heads of Minato's group which any Ashikabi and their Sekirei can collect, and which Mikogami attempts to cash in on. She is able to combine her attacks with Akitsu to form a potent icy mist which almost terminates Homura until the other Sekirei fights back, creating a massive ring of fire which causes heavy damage to the surrounding forest, and forces the other two Sekirei back.
