Unlike most of the female students, Akane wears white thigh socks and black shoes. She has a dark-colored band around her neck.

Abilities

Invisibility: Akane can become invisible to the person she kisses. Unlike Mikoto's power, Akane's invisibility doesn't erase the person she kissed's memory about her, making them still knowing about her even though they cannot see her. This is shown when Akane kissed Midori, Toranosuke, and Nene, that they can still remember her even after she had casted their shield.

Enhanced Speed: Akane is known for being both quick and accurate in her work, shown when she quickly put her spell upon Midori, Toranosuke, and Nene in a few seconds. 

Equipment

Watch: Akane has been shown to always wear this watch. She uses this to check time for her to keep up with her schedule.

Briefcase: Akane is seen carrying a relatively small briefcase around with her, which she probably uses in whatever she is doing outside of school. It can switch between handheld and trolley position. Its contents are unknown.

Relationship

Nancy: The two seem to have a mutual relationship, having helped Nancy during the situation, with the latter apologizing for bothering her.
