Kikunojo of the Lingering Snow, mostly known as Kikunojo or Kiku, is one of the major characters in the Wano Country Saga from the anime and manga franchise One Piece.
She is the younger sister of Izo, and the daughter of the dancing school head of the Hanayanagi School in Ringo. She is also one of Kozuki Oden's Nine Red Scabbards, a samurai for Wano Country and a retainer for the Kozuki Family. She was 22 years old when she traveled forwards in time, making her 22 years old biologically and 42 years old chronologically.
After moving forward in time, Kikunojo works as a tea house postel girl at Okobore Town. She is a key organizer of the rebellion against Kaido and Korozumi Orochi.
She was voiced by Mariya Ise in Japanese and Kayleigh McKee and Bryn Apprill as a child in English.
Appearance[]
Kikunojo is a young woman with long dark purple or dark blue hair. She is very tall, standing at 2.78 meters, or over 9 feet. She has similar features as her older brother Izo, who also has dark blue/purple hair and eyes. Kiku is noted for her beauty, earning a reputation as the "most beautiful swordsman in Wano Country".
As a present, she wears a yellow kimono with a orange chrysanthemum floral patterns, white tabi, and black-soled zōri. While Kikunojo is in a combat, she wears a ponytail with a red ribbon, a tasuki, and a white Noh Hannya mask. In the raid on Onigashima and at the battle against the Beasts Pirates, she has a set of full Japanese armor.
During her time as a samurai under Kozuki Oden, she dressed in more traditionally masculine clothing. However, after being transported forward in time, she begins to dress more feminine, including wearing a kimono and red lipstick.
She loses her left arm in the Scabbards' battle against Kaido.
Personality[]
Kikunojo is a loyal member of the Red Scabbards. Though she was assigned male at birth, Kiku describes herself as a woman at heart, and she dresses and lives as female. She is shown to be very caring and nurturing, as can be seen when she treats Zoro's injuries and tends to Tama after she was poisoned.
