Female Kishibe

Kishibe (岸きし辺べ, Kishibe?) is a Public Safety Devil Hunter from Tokyo Special Division 1, but after the assault on the Special Divisions, she became captain of the Tokyo Special Division 4.

Kishibe is a somewhat tall, slim and athletic young woman with a stitched scar running across her left cheek from her mouth. In her young adult years, her hair is black and straight and reaches the base of her neck and bangs that reach just above her eyes. Additionally, Kishibe has two piercings on her left ear and one on her right ear. She typically wears the standard Public Safety Devil Hunter uniform, complimented by a large overcoat. She is often seen with a silver hip flask which she frequently drinks from. inside her apartment or outside of work, she tends to wear more comfortable clothes.

Kishibe is a jaded, straightforward individual. Due to her immense strength and skill, she often undertakes her work with a calm formality, displaying little emotion as she does so. Though she tends to speak in a relaxed, polite manner, his actions often showcase an immense brutality garnered through many years of Devil Hunting. Though she sometimes expresses emotions such as surprise and sadness at certain events, her face and voice remain entirely neutral.

Despite this stoicism, Kishibe has proven on numerous occasions to be something of a sentimental and emotional individual. During her training of Denji and Power, despite her stated hatred of Fiends and Devils, she grows affectionate towards the pair, telling Makima of his concerns for their safety. She later takes care of Meowy for them as a favor when they go on a trip. Similarly, she refuses to look at the corpse of Quanxi upon her death due to their implied past-friendship, despite the two's attempts to kill one another earlier in the day.

Kishibe has been hunting devils for a long time, making her somewhat insane. She espouses a belief that the most fearsome devil hunters to devils isn't the brave or the strong, but the craziest as they are the ones without fear.

Kishibe is the strongest member of Tokyo Special Division 4 according to Makima, followed by the Angel Devil. Kishibe has described himself as being the strongest devil hunter, and was purported to be a "first-rate hunter" by Hirofumi Yoshida during the International Assassins arc.

Kishibe has contracts with at least three devils which have described as being "fairly dangerous".

Though he was initially dismissed by them as being no one special, Kishibe proved strong enough to easily subdue two of the fiends who work for Quanxi singlehandedly.
