Kiyoko

Kiyoko, designated #25, is the only girl among the Espers. She has green wrinkled skin and long white hair styled into braids, and wears a pink nightgown; in the flashback in the anime, Kiyoko has healthy skin and light brown hair, and is wearing a pink dress. She is bedridden because of her physical fraility, possibly a result of the experiments and/or drugs, and is always seen in bed. It was she who predicted the fall of Neo-Tokyo, and Tetsuo's involvement with Akira. Kiyoko was likely an orphan when she was acquired along with a group of young children by the government of the original Tokyo. At the time, the Japanese government was spearheading a secret project, supervised by Colonel Shikishima, to develop psychic powers, possibly for militaristic and political purposes. This was where Kiyoko met and befriended Takashi, Masaru, and Akira. The project ended when Akira grew too powerful and transcended to a higher plane, leaving behind a psychic explosion that obliterated Tokyo. The Pokaż więcej
