Characters Consumed

 * Naon Yuno
 * Koko Zenibako

Personality
As she was initially an impassive egg-like creature, Kuusetsu has no inherent personality of her own. However, after devouring and absorbing Naon and Koko, Kuusetsu inherited their personalities and became a vibrant and lively woman who is obsessed with beauty. Regardless, Kuusetsu remains devoted to the Eight Thunder Gods' mission to destroy all humans.

Motive
Initially, Kuusetsu devours other beings in order to "evolve" and obtain a human form. However, even after transforming, Kuusetsu retains a notable appetite and wishes to continue devouring humans, especially those she considers beautiful and those that have special abilities so she may become more beautiful and absorb their powers.

History
As one of the Eight Thunder Gods, Kuusetsu evidently began her life as a large egg-like creature. As she needed food to develop, her fellow Gods brought a number of humans for her to devour, but Kuusetsu turned them away. Eventually, the Gods presented the unconscious bodies of Naon Yuno and Koko Zenibako to her and, after briefly inspecting them, Kuusetsu happily devoured them. Afterwards, Kuusetsu entered an incubation period in which she absorbed the traits and abilities of Naon and Koko. Once the incubation period was over, Kuusetsu transformed into a female body, physically similar to both Naon and Koko.

Later, after a failed attempt to abduct and devour several human women, Kuusetsu is found by Mira Kamiunten, whose mission is to subdue her. Although Kuusetsu initially attempts to flee, Mira attacks and derides her, motivating Kuusetsu to fight. After an intense battle, Kuusetsu ultimately prevails and, impressed by Mira's strength and beauty, she proceeds to devour her, absorbing her traits and abilities.

Method of Consumption
In her larval egg state, Kuusetsu can open up her large body like a mouth and use her tendrils to grab and consume her prey. After swallowing her prey, Kuusetsu enters an incubation period and then transforms, inheriting some physical and personality traits, as well as any superhuman abilities, of those she has devoured.

After transforming into her female humanoid form, Kuusetsu can still devour humans by opening up a large mouth from her abdomen. From this mouth she can extend several tendrils, making it easier for her to grasp her prey and feed them into her belly. Just as before, Kuusetsu inherits physical and personality traits and abilities of anyone she devours.

Additionally, Kuusetsu has a series of dots beneath her eyes that seem to indicate how many people she has absorbed. For instance, two dots under each eyes means she has absorbed two people, while three dots under each eye means she has absorbed three.

Appetite
Although it is not her sole motivation, Kuusetsu still wishes to devour humans when she is hungry. However, she can be quite fussy about whom she eats both as an egg (as she had refused several other "meals" before Naon and Koko) and in her humanoid form as she refuses to eat people she considers ugly. Those she absorbs apparently stop sating her after a while and she routinely becomes hungry for more. While already holding two people inside her, she evidently planned on eating several women she had abducted, thus there seems to be no limit on the number of people she can eat.

Status of Swallowed Prey
Those swallowed by Kuusetsu are apparently kept unconscious but alive inside her, acting as living "batteries".
