Kogeta

**Kogeta** is one of the Doppelgangers in the second season of the Lucky Besties anime. Her alter ego is known as **Unlucky Charred**. After purification, she becomes **Asahi**.

## Bio

### Personality

Kogeta is a pessimistic and rude girl who only cares about herself and her looks. She thinks Ignite is annoying and weird, and claims she's more normal than anyone else. Kogeta is a massive narcissist--considering herself the "#1 prettiest girl in the whole wide world". Kogeta is also somewhat bossy. She also claims she's "queen of the Doppelgangers".

After her heart is cleansed, she becomes Asahi, who is more sensitive to the feelings of other people and is no longer rude or a narcissist. She also becomes somewhat soft-spoken and an introvert. She also thinks of Akari her older twin sister and still doppelganger, but distances herself from her for a while because of how much Asahi (as Kogeta) hurt her.

It's later revealed that Asahi was her original self, and she used to have no friends--similar to Akari when she was younger. Asahi used to be lonely and hate herself, but after trying to put an end to her life one day, it was Wizzy who saved her.

### Appearance

#### Kogeta/Unlucky Charred

As Kogeta (before being purified), she has long black hair that is slightly messy, a red hairclip, and red, lifeless-looking tsumire eyes with a grey tint. Her outfit is similar to the rest of the Doppelgangers; a dull-colored dress (in her case, red), a white collar with a tie (also red), a black trenchcoat, transparent black stockings, and red stilettos.

When taking over Ignite, she causes Ignite's eye color to change to red and gray, also changing them from tareme to tsurime, and lifeless-looking. Ignite's vest changes from red to black, her socks from red to black, and the orange tint in her hair from orange to black.

#### Asahi

As Asahi (her true self), she keeps her hairstyle and color, and her eyes are no longer lifeless-looking. She's still in her Kogeta clothes, but after Akari takes her clothes shopping, Asahi now wears a white long-sleeve shirt with red frills on the sleeves and two red bows on the bottom, a black hoodie with thumbholes and white lace on the bottom, red jeans with holes in the kneespots, white socks and black converse. Asahi also has black nail polish on her nails and then starts wearing white, round-framed glasses.

For school, she wears a variant of the Yumeirogaoka Ginga Academy uniform, with a black hoodie with a red horizontal stripe near the bottom, and black and red striped socks. She also ties her hair up in a ponytail with a red scrunchie.

### Etymology

**Kogeta** means "burnt/charred", which references her Unlucky form.

**Asahi** means "morning sun". **Hanabi** means "firework".

### Relationships

**Akari Minashima**

As Kogeta, she took control of Akari in Episode 7 of the second season, causing her to start acting narcissistic, and say narcissistic things (such as saying she's the prettiest and no one will be as beautiful as her). She even goes as far as to make Akari insult her friends and say rude things about them.

After her friends manage to break Akari from this control, Kogeta separates from Akari, causing the latter to confront her and fight her. Akari eventually receives her Heartful Lucky Gem and is able to purify Kogeta, transforming her into Asahi, who breaks down and says she had no idea how much she hurt everyone. Later in the season, Asahi transfers to Yumeirogaoka Ginga Academy, now with the surname Hanabi. She still distances herself from Akari due to her past actions.

In Generation 2, Asahi and Akari share a college dorm and play video games together.

## History

### Pre-Season 2

Asahi was an ordinary girl who was lonely and used to have no friends--similar to Akari when she was younger. Asahi used to be lonely and hate herself, and tried to put herself out of her misery one day, but Wizzy spotted her, and instead of encouraging her, Wizzy told Asahi she could have all the friends in the world if she worked for her. Asahi reluctantly agreed, and became Kogeta, the last member of the Doppels to join, but was the second one to be introduced.

## Songs
