Fūko Kirisawa (霧沢 風子, Kirisawa Fūko) is a prominent character in the anime and manga series Flame of Recca. Known for her tough and tomboyish personality, Fūko enjoys fighting and thrives in intense battles. Despite her outward toughness, she has a softer, feminine side that she rarely shows, adding depth to her character.
As a member of Team Hokage, Fūko is renowned as the quickest fighter on the team, utilizing her agility and skill to outmaneuver her opponents. Her primary weapons are darts called “Kiri” and the madōgu Fūjin, a mystical artifact that enhances her speed-based attacks and grants her the ability to control the wind.

She has short brown hair styled in a practical cut and brown eyes that reflect her confidence and determination. While her usual attire consists of sporty, practical clothing suited for combat, she occasionally shows a more feminine side in casual settings.
Her combat attire often includes a sleeveless top and shorts, emphasizing her agility and allowing her to move freely during fights. The Fūjin, her signature madōgu, is worn on her wrist and is adorned with a unique crystal centerpiece that glows when activated, symbolizing her mastery of wind-based techniques.

Her tomboyish demeanor and love for fighting make her one of the most resilient members of Team Hokage, always eager to prove herself in battle. She’s known for her fiery temper and confidence, often teasing her teammates and taunting her enemies.
However, beneath her tough exterior lies a hidden feminine side, which she rarely allows others to see. Fūko is deeply loyal to her friends and willing to risk everything to protect them. Her determination and strong sense of justice drive her to push her limits, making her a valuable and reliable ally.
