## Appearance

As a Child, Kenta had reflective white hair and pale skin, he wore a dark samurai outfit with a dark blue haori decorated with butterflies and Hakama pants, he was barefoot, he is almost always seen with bandages on his face as a result of being abused by his Mother who suffered from an extreme case of Capgras delusion.

When he is older Kenta is described as a tall, lanky young man, with slight muscular arms. He is frequently described has having pretty eyes. He stands at 6’5”with fluffy azure hair that covers his ears, Kenta possesses partial heterochromia iridium as his left eye is the same color as his hair while his right eye looks to be reverted. he seems to have a void corrupted circle around his right eye that leaks out a blue/black liquid before he got revived. He's got pale skin and his right ear lobe top seems to be cut off from being shot in the head, and quite large indicating he is a vampire. He is seen wearing a dark blue hooded jacket with matching pants and shoes with straps over them, one his most noticeable features are his bandaged hands as they are always bandaged, no one knows the color of his hands until he takes them off revealing his corrupted skin. Which is identical to Keit.

He is seen wearing blue Samue-type clothing with dark off brown samurai pants that seem to be a mix of Hakama and Harem pants, with light azure Himo, Kenta has tightly wrapped Kyahan bandages up his calf’s and left leg, he has bandages on his forearms and sometimes around his right eye. He wears strapped Zori, and he is seen wearing many variations of What looks to be a long hooded cinder flower decorated Haori that has a pentagon shape revealing his back so his wings can come out. After Ayamei revives him, he is seen wearing the training clothes given to him by Setosuke Tsukumo. He also wears a jumpsuit similar to the undergarment Ayamei wears but the male version.

He has the Danger squad mark on his haori and jacket.

While being in many labs, Kenta is seen in dark blue hospital gowns and testing uniforms, he is seen with a dark blue jacket to match. He, like all the other test subjects, had a void crystal in his chest and a unique ID (tattooed on his left shoulder) to that specific testing unit, [1630], his void crystal was removed although his ID continues to be on his arm. he was barefoot most of the time.

## Personality

After Kenta’s mother threw him off the cliff Kenta received major brain damage causing him to develop partial achromatopsia (full colorblindness), he can’t see any color, the only color he has fully identified is red, (this could be because he is a vampire)

He is described as quiet and reserved and even bored, Ayamei Saotome mentions that his expressions seem limited to *frowning and scowling.* Kenta is mentioned to never smile, until he can finally see color. His way of acting is a spectrum considered sadistically sarcastic and rather anticlimactic. Although he can act as if he shows little to no interest in people, Kenta is shown to be vigilant and protective. And even sometimes as Angry and aggressive, He is described to be annoyed and angered easily, He Explains that he often mimics how Raioku, Rexto and Eniko acted. And that it is merely a habit of his. These are the only emotions that have been properly displayed at the labs he’s been in. Despite this he is rather calm and often emotionally detached many characters mention that it seems like he doesn’t know how to talk or interact with people.

Setosuke Tsukumo later brings light to the fact that Kenta has Alexithymia, This is why he is often confused and conflicted when others cry or are happy, especially regarding him. He has a hard time telling others how he feels to the point where he often breaks down and is especially angry with himself. This could be caused from his abusive upbringing as a child and how his Mother treated him.

It is shown that Kenta is a very gentle and even empathetic around the people he cares about.

Kenta doesn’t know how to read English or Japanese, although he is fluent in English and Japanese sign- language and can read Braille.

Ayamei mentions how Kenta has a beautiful voice, and how he used to hum tunes he made up, to help Ayamei fall asleep. He is shown to be somewhat loyal and isn’t afraid to speak for others, He is known for saying *nasty things to others when they’ve made him angry* but given the opportunity to,  he will apologize. He mentioned to be very polite, Kind and even loving when he tries, He often held Ayamei’s hand in attempt to comfort her.

## Abilities

**Void corruption**

If Kenta touches someone with his bare flesh he can corrupt them, this will *cause said person's limbs to become dead and immovable, and eventually they will fall off.* Doing this to Demons or Vampires that can grow their limbs back won’t be able to grow their limbs back. Kenta is seen doing this to Monsters of Darkness and Raioku Yeir. He is also able to do this to inanimate objects, though if a living person is close it can *quickly spread.* This is why he refused to break the chain off of Ayamei’s wrists and ankles.

**Void Essence**

Kenta can use his Void Essence to summon what he called “Essence claws” , A pair of large void like hands that float above his hands, they act as an extra set of hands and move when he moves his hands. They can pass through anything living without fatal consequence, unless he wants otherwise. He can reach farther and use void corruption with them as well.

**Pure Vampire**

Kenta is Incredibly flexible, and can heal incredibly fast (after being revived) He is physically strong despite his “Twig” Appearance. Mentioned by Rexto Yeir, after Kenta was revived, He sparred against Ayamei Saotome and *won 8 out of 10* times before he refused to fight her anymore despite her wanting to fight more. Kenta had punched Ayamei in the chest so hard her healing process couldn’t keep up, and according to Setosuke Tsukumo, She had cardiac arrest. Which Kenta beats himself up about. Kenta bent backwards and into himself in order to dodge an Anizine Circlet that Chezukan threw at his neck . Kenta had dislocated his shoulders to crawl through the vents in lab 18 after helping Sasayaku and Fukashi Escape. Before he accidentally broke his left arm, hanging over a room. He was able to heal after a few seconds even relocating his arm.

Kenta can revive someone if they’re dead. He can also sire people, he can go without blood for a while. He can also give as much blood as he wants to a person. Kenta’s eyes flash red when he drinks blood. An eerie vibe emits from him when he is angry or hungry for blood. He can sense people's presence through the ground and floor up to 500,000 feet, he can also tell who is a person is by their breathing and heartbeats. This is why Ayamei wasn’t able to scare him while inside the abandoned train.

**Angelic powers**

Kenta can heal small wounds on others, though he has to have curse bandages on his hands to prevent any corruption, he is seen doing this to Fukashi, Kitamikado , Daichi , Saya and most commonly to Ayamei Saotome.

**Undying disease**

Every time Kenta dies he gets reverted to the last time he felt pain. This can be a never-ending cycle depending on how fatal the injury is.

**Samurai training**

Kenta is well-versed in samurai techniques and is very well-rounded in the art of the sword and martial combat, He is immune to most poisons as a result of being tested on.

**Void child**

Kenta can hide or travel between voids. He can also cut into people with void which is essentially space. And sort of send them into voids though people can escape unless he closes the void off and suffocates them with it. This is considered taboo for void children as they are relatively harmless and peaceful people.

**Lavendula Calming Effect**

Kenta can essentially release a calming and or sleeping effect from his void hands that causes overwhelming amounts of Melatonin, this can even be fatal so he doesn’t use it to a full effect on his allies.
