Nozomi Kako (加(か)古(こ) 望(のぞみ), Kako Nozomi ^?) is the No. 3 Shooter and captain of Kako Squad, as well as one of the twelve candidates for the Black Trigger Fūjin.

Appearance

Kako is a young woman with long hair parted in the middle, and thin eyes. She has a mole on the left side of her face, right under her lips.

When in her trion body, she wears a skinny black jumpsuit which has a purple design resembling a leotard on it, and also has her squad's emblem, over the left side of her chest. It has long sleeves that cover most of her arms (except for her wrists and hands). She also wears long, laced boots. She also has two holster belts, one on each side of her uniform, but it's unknown what they are for, as most of her triggers don't take physical space.

Outside of combat, she has been seen wearing a black jacket over a light-colored shirt and black pants.

Personality

Kako is a laid-back person. She was also shown to be ashamed of not being able to get to the battlefield with her unit sooner, showing seriousness in her work. She is quick to point out flaws in something shown when commenting on Tamakoma Second's fourth rank war, she criticized Ninomiya for being too slow in making decisions and analyzing the situation.^{[citation needed]}
