Akane Sawatari

Although Akane is normally calm and cool-headed, she can become panicked as seen when she was flustered after her subordinates started dying from Makima's counterattack. Akane usually has her hands in her pockets, presumably to hide her bloody fingernails, so others don't know what she sacrifices to her Snake Devil contract.

Akane is a petite young woman with short blonde hair that has dark brown roots, Her red eyes possess slit pupils like a snake and she usually has a neutral or bored expression with her hands in her hoodie's pockets. Akane normally wears a red oversized hoodie and black shorts with orange and white Nike Airmax 97s. In a photo that was taken of her while she was dealing with guns, she could be seen wearing a tracksuit. When being used by Makima for her antemortem contract with the Snake Devil, Akane is shown wearing the Public Safety Devil Hunter uniform, consisting of the usual dress shirt, tie, and black pants.

Devil Contract
Snake Devil Contract: Akane has a contract with the Snake Devil that allows her to summon it at will through the following commands: * み|Marunomi}}: Akane fully summons the Snake Devil to absorb the target as seen when she used this ability to devour the Ghost Devil almost completely, except for its head. * きし|Hakidashi}} : After being absorbed into the Snake Devil, the target being is restored and can be used to fight alongside Akane after speaking the command followed by the absorbed being's name. She used this against Aki Hayakawa to summon the Ghost Devil. However, releasing the absorbed being caused her nose to bleed which indicates an internal damage due to sacrifice. * |Shippo}}: Akane is also able to summon the tail of the Snake Devil. An example of this is when she used this ability against Kobeni Higashiyama. In exchange for using each command, Akane loses one fingernail, leaving the sensitive nail bed and matrix exposed. Additionally, use of the Snake Devil's abilities requires hand motions, so, if her hands are restrained, she cannot use the abilities. Her contract includes a clause stating that if she is to be captured, the Snake Devil will kill her before she can reveal any information. This clause is enacted by the Snake Devil after she is captured by Kobeni.
