Kaede is 5’ 2  and 112 lbs. She has ghostly pale skin and pure white hair. Her hair is styled in two buns, with the rest of it hanging loose. It is curled. She has gray/black eyes and dresses in a gothic lolita fashion. Kaede is the daughter of a now deceased detective, famous for solving one of Japan's most notorious serial killer cases. She wants to follow in his footsteps, despite knowing the company is being passed onto her older brother. She feels like she lives in her brother's shadow, so she takes the Hikari case into her own hands in order to prove herself worthy. She takes on Makino Akane as her “assistant detective” in the case, as she was friends with the victim Osaki who is pictured in the first episode. Kaede is seemingly emotionless, never having reactions to anything. She’s not bothered by blood or gore and in fact she says herself that she doesn’t care about the victims at all, she’s just interested in the cases. She’s extremely logical and cunning, she can get whatever she wants whenever she wants. her voice is high pitched, soft, neutral toned and feminine.
