Her other clothes reflect her personality, and are more formal than those of other characters.

When she activates her Quirk, Griffin, she sprouts a pair of large, black, feathery wings out from her arms as well as a talon each arm which acts much like her fingers. Along with her wings she also grows bird-like talon for feet being quite large in compared to regular birds such as hawks. In her hawk form, she also begins to sprout feathers all across the rest of her body much like fur, the feathers usually spread all the into her boob area where they stop near when her nipples has been covered as it leaves a mid section open where her skin is. Her ears too change into a feather-like ear sprouting out of her.

## Abilities

**Overall Abilities**: Akane is quite skilled in combat whether in her Harpy-state, as she calls it, or her regular form she is a formidable combatant. Akane is a very agressive fighter, and will usually be the first to initiate combat. She is not afraid of running away if the situation calls for it, and returning stronger and deadlier. She is known to manipulate potential combat areas prior to fighting, in order to swing the odds in her favor. She is potentially the most dangerous individual on her team, along with having the most experience.

Akane is considered to be a diverse combatant in terms of fight styles, Akane has learned to focus on being a melee combatant but branched out into a fight style she likes to call Talon Strike, she knows when to swoop in to attack and swoop out. This makes her quite powerful in terms of technique.

**Immense Speed**: Because of her transformation-type Quirk, in her Harpy-state her bones become more shallow which allow her to fly but unlike birds who have hollow bones, Akane's filled bones gives off a powerful wing span which allows her to flap her wings harder releasing gusts of air pressure whenever she flies. This allows her to take flight, going faster than 190mph. Though these effects only apply whenever she can take flight into the air as her ground speed would be optimal.

**Immense Strength**: The density of her talon legs is so strong that she's been seen able to kick a car yards away without showing much effort, showing that the strength in her talon-like feet. Akane has also been seen grabbing onto opponents and restraining them with just her legs and with no sign of them possibly escaping from her grasp.

### Quirk

**Black Talon**: Akane's Quirk allows her to sprout sprout a pair of large, black, feathery wings from her arms in result changing the infrastructure of her bones becoming more shallow. This transformation however is apparently more painful than it appears as Akane shows a mild sense of pain whenever activating her Quirk but overtime it looks almost painless. Akane's wings have been shown to do some impressive feats as the strength used to flap her wings are so strong that it creates gusts of air pressure which she learned to utilize as a ranged attack.

Alongside her wings, she grows talons for feet and two talons on her wings, which are quite dense and powerful to be used in both offense and support. In an offensive state, Akane could use her talon to either do some heavy damage or to restrain an opponent. Or in support using the talons to grasp people in danger to carrying heavy objects to a desired area.
