| ~ - Kaoru Maki |
Kaoru Maki is a major character in Puella Magi Kazumi Magica: The Innocent Malice.
An athletic football (soccer) player, she lives with her two friends, Kazumi and Umika while their parents are working overseas. She acts as an older sister figure, taking good care of things. She is a magical girl, and is a member of the Pleiades Saints. She tells Kazumi she wished for a strong, healthy body that would always let her play football, but her actual wish was to help the people hurt in the same soccer match as her. The reason for this discrepancy is unknown.
Personality[]
Kaoru is the brawn of the three, though it's unknown how she acts within the Pleiades. She is strong-willed. Even though she wants to become a great football player she merely wished for a strong body so she could always play, as she wants to do it with her own ability.
Powers, Weapons & Abilities[]
Kaoru applies her football skills in battle. She mainly attacks by striking her foe with mighty kicks. While teaming with Kazumi and Umika, her job is to stun the opponent with her kicks to provide the others with an opening. It is currently unknown how she fights along with the other Pleiades. Her most powerful attack is Palla di Cannone (English: Cannonball), an extremely powerful football kick, driving a ball onto the target with amazing strength.
Kaoru's weapon is a staff that can split into two, creating a ball of energy. She seems to rarely use it.
Kaoru can also change parts of her body into a durable, metallic substance via an attack called Capitano Potenza (Captain Power). In this state, she can withstand attacks that would otherwise fatally wound her.
