## Storyline History

### Deep Blue Wonderland

Kohaku and Nami first came to Mikado when they notice him suffering for on his walk back to his apartment. Like Mikado, Kohaku drew a "six", lacking the ability to sense other tadpoles and others can't sense her. The three tadpoles join up and the girls end up staying in Mikado's apartment with him and his friends. After the first gate is destroyed, Kohaku starts having nightmares about her time in Chou Mori. Mikado tries to help her get her mind off of it by asking about her powers. She says that she "eats sins". Kohaku couldn't explain her powers just yet.

When the second gate is opened, she starts having more nightmares about the experiments back in Chou Mori. She sees Taiyou and feels at ease. However, Kokaku knows that something worse is coming for them.

She suffers when the tadpoles' senses become heightened. The girl can hear inside of her body as well of the sounds of the city. When Mikado hears a van door slamming across the street outside, Kohaku, Emily, and Nami follow him outside and find two guys from Nebula spying on them.

### Wonderland Chaos

Kohaku learns from Shingen and Emilia that she can now hear thoughts thanks to Satoshi Aida being dead. Later, she is seen with the other tadpoles in the library as Tetsu tells his siblings that he doesn't trust Nebula and that they should find the other tadpoles themselves.

Kohaku along with the other tadpoles meet Midori Amano and learn that Celty can neutralize their powers when she is near them. Nami and Kohaku immediately take comfort in it. Later, Kohaku communicates with Nami and Tetsu telepathically about all of the members of the opposite sex being attracted to them all of a sudden. They figure out who is causing this and resolve not to tell Nebula about their new abilities.

Kohaku and the others learn about Azusa Kibuishi's death from Mikado. It is she that suggests that they hurry up and find the other tadpoles so that they don't end up dead like Satoshi and Azusa. She soon become smarter and can see the destruction of Ikebukuro in the future. Because of the latter, she tries to contact another tadpole named Anzu Oshima. Later in "Thursday", Kohaku and the other tadpoles look for Mikado when he goes missing.

In "Girls", Kohaku eats the sins of her beloved school nurse. After comforting her, she notices something alarming in the mirror. She's later seen at Russia Sushi with the other tadpole girls.

### Caged Wonderland

Kohaku, along with the rest of the tadpoles, all have a mock sports day to test out the results from the Kratos drug in the last experiment.

### Black Swan Wonderland

Kohaku gets forced into another experiment. Now she can't feel pain. After Emily's death, Kohaku now controls a small spirit familiar. In the season finale, Kohaku is crept out by the shadows in the sky. Nami pulls her into her arms and holds her until she calms down. The girls then begin walking down the street again.

### Edge of Wonderland

Kohaku is pulled into another experiment where she has a chalky taste in her throat that she can't get rid of. Later, she is pulled into another experiment where she is sick as a dog. Kohaku feels better after Masaomi Kida becomes a player and rewinds time. The antidote has the side effect of letting her see the final moments of a person before they die in her dreams. She, along with the others don't know how long it will last.

### Tadpole Diaries II

It is revealed that Kohaku's powers are leaving dark spots all over her body. She looks at them in the mirror and panics. It doesn't help when a fellow student comes in and sees as well. The classmate asks if they hurt. Kohaku says no. The other student suggests that she goes to the doctor to get the spots checked out. Kohaku says that she will. She goes to Emilia Kishitani to have her examine her body. Turns out, Kohaku has had these spots on her skin for months. She says it's because she's been using her power. Before she goes any further, Kohaku pleads with Emilia to stop treating the tadpoles like lab rats and they are human beings. She isn't sure that Emilia will take her pleading seriously. After the researcher agrees, Kohaku breaks down and tells her everything in her life.

Kohaku later shows Nami the spots on her skin. She tells her truth and that she doesn't know what to do. Nami assures her that everything will be fine. Kohaku isn't too convinced. She asks about Nami's dog, Tank. She is shocked to learn that she and the other tadpoles can talk to animals.

### Dark Alice in a Dark Wonderland

Kohaku goes to look for the new tadpole. It is revealed that she is staying with Chikage Rokujo and Non.

## Tadpole Powers

### Primary

Kohaku says that she can "eat" the sins of people. At the moment, she can't exactly explain what that means. It is revealed that her powers are similar to Mikado's, but she can touch the "sin" and absorb it with her hand. The person that she touches ends up confessing their guilt and feeling much better later. However, the more sins she eats, the more dark purple-black spots appear on her skin. Kohaku doesn't know how to deal with them.

### Secondary

She can also sense other tadpoles nearby and has heightened senses. Now because of Satoshi's death, Kohaku can hear thoughts, but only of one person when they are alone together. After Azusa's death, she can raise a person's desires. She can also speak telepathically with the other tadpoles. Due to new developments in the the project, Kohaku can't get sick, high, or drunk. Another experiment has taken away her need to sleep. Yet another experiment has made her eat like a horse. The next experiment took away her ability to feel pain. After Emily's death, she now commands a small spirit familiar.

The side effects of the antidote lets her see the final moments of a person before they die in her dreams. Kohaku can now talk to animals.

### Augmentations

Plus, Kohaku can easily attract members of the opposite sex. She has become much smarter and can see the future. Kohaku can now move things with her mind and has become more athletic.
