Kotori Itsuka, also known as Commander, Efreet and Flame Spirit, is one of the main characters from the Date A Live series.
== Charactah Account ==
Shidou's foster younger sister. Loves her Chupa Chups lollipops. Commander of the Fraxinus. Her personality depends on the ribbons she's wearing: she acts like a perfectly normal girl her age when she's wearing white ribbons, but switches to a dominatrix when she's wearing black ribbons. Nevertheless, she still cares deeply for Shidou.
Kotori has three different personalities depending on the situation at hand. As a human, her character changes according to the color of the ribbons she's wearing. While wearing white ribbons or not wearing any, she is that of her "weak self", a delicate little sister who is very dependent upon her big brother; and when wearing black ribbons, she becomes her "strong self", a charismatic and sometimes cynical leader able to successfully command the airship, Fraxinus. According to Reine, the Kotori with white ribbons is the one that can honestly say how she feels, which would mean that the Kotori with black ribbons is only putting a strong front because the situation requires so.
