Satsuki Kiryuuin

Satsuki Kiryuuin, also known as Lady Satsuki, is one of the main characters from the Kill la Kill series.
== Charactah Account ==
The Student Council President of Honnouji Academy, and Ryuuko's arch rival and later sister. Her goal is total world domination through the superpower-endowing Goku Uniforms. Her sword, Bakuzan, is enough to withstand even the awe-inspiring might of Ryuuko's Kamui, Senketsu. Not one to let herself get outdone by anyone, however, she ends up donning her own Kamui, Junketsu, to counter Ryuuko's.
Prideful to say the least, Satsuki is extremely intelligent, calculating, patient, while simultaneously unwavering and iron-fisted. Unlike with Ryuuko Matoi and Senketsu, she had no shame in wearing the Kamui Junketsu in its most revealing form; she claims that her actions in donning Junketsu are, like the Kamui's name implies, "utterly pure". Satsuki refers to people as "pigs in human clothing", and justifies that the weak and foolish must be ruled. Due to her steadfast convictions, she also possesses a natural charisma and ability to lead others. In spite of her pride, Satsuki is shown to be pragmatic and determined, willing to cast aside pride and using whatever means necessary in order to secure victory, even if it threatens her life. When fighting Ragyou, Satsuki noted that her willingness to fight her mother and the Life Fibers was due to revenge, noting that great causes are born from personal desires.
In spite of her behavior at school, Satsuki is not heartless. While very harsh and not very willing to tolerate failures, she does care a great deal for the Elite Four; and is as protective of them (in her own hidden ways) as they are to her. As a child, she would always drink Mitsuzou Soroi's tea, in order to protect his feelings; despite disliking its bitterness for a long time, she eventually found it delicious. When she reminisces about this to Soroi, Satsuki, herself, notes that she must have been a kind-hearted girl if she'd gone that far to protect her butler's feelings.

== Trivia ==
* The name Satsuki means "may".
* Satsuki's surname Kiryuuin means "demon, ogre" (ki), "dragon" (ryuu) and "hospital" (in).
* Episode 1: Satsuki's "facts of this world" speech is heavily inspired by George Orwell's most famous novel, Nineteen Eighty-Four. In the novel, the Party's slogan — "War is Peace, "Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength" — was a paradoxal statement that held hidden truths about the world in the novel, and in addition to Satsuki's last part of her speech "You pigs in human clothing" is also inspired by George Orwell's other famous novel, Animal Farm. Satsuki's "facts of this world" speech and the showcase of Ira coldly executing the Goku Uniform thief were intentionally chosen to introduce her as a ruthless dictator.
