Fighting style: Akino is very adept with grapples and submission holds specifically and prefers to use them above other methods, but can also fight effectively with strikes if necessary. She generally won’t even attempt high impact moves or powerful slams unless either her opponent happens to be smaller and lighter than her, or the situation just happens to be perfect for such a move. Sensual and hentai moves usually aren’t her main priority in matches. However, she does get turned on by dominating opponents and inflicting pain on them. Because of this, it’s not uncommon for Akino to start incorporating hentai related moves once her matches have progressed to a certain point. Akino also enjoys hardcore style matches that will allow her to make use of weapons, but she won’t make any attempt to use them if the rules of the match forbid it.

Preferred match type: Any

Favored Moves: Submission holds, Smothering (with both breast smothering and facesits)

Finishing Moves:

Sanada Driver: Akino holds the opponent upside down with their belly against her back, and her arms hooked around the back of their knees. From there she jumps up and drops down to slam the opponent on their head while also dropping her ass onto their face and locking them in a matchbook pin.

Kumonosu (Spiderweb): Akino hangs upside down with her belly against the opponent’s back while wrapping her legs tightly around their neck in a modified reverse headscissor. And if possible, she’ll also grab the opponent’s wrists and pull them backward to add to the pain of the hold while also making it even more difficult to escape.

Shoryu Kekkai: While the opponent’s lying on their stomach, Akino sits on their back, tucking one leg under their neck, then grabs the opponent’s arm and wrenches back on it with a modified armbar.

Personality: Akino is generally a pretty stern person. She doesn’t smile very often, and tends to be pretty serious most of the time, though those who manage to get close to her will see a more casual side to her. She enjoys competitive matches, but can be quick to anger when things aren’t going her way, especially if it’s because her opponent is fighting dirty. As mentioned above, Akino is a sadist, meaning she gets turned on by dominating and inflicting pain on her opponents, particularly by trapping them in various types of smothers or painful submission holds for as long as possible. And though she's in Friction and primarily fights against women, she has no problem with going over to Tension and putting men in their place as well.

Past:
Akino was born with partial blindness (hence the eyepatch) into a wealthy family in Tokyo. And although she’s had to wear her eyepatch her whole life, the only noticeable inconvenience it brought was the looks she always received from people seeing her for the first time, something she learned fairly quickly to just get used to and ignore. Bullies, on the other hand, weren't so easy to dismiss. Through much of her childhood she was picked on, made fun of and even beaten up a few times because of her disability.

While she was still young her parents allowed her to take karate classes, which was where she discovered her love for fighting. She continued to learn in the years to come, eventually taking on lessons from other various martial arts as well, finding that grappling seemed to be her strong suit. Not coincidentally, the more her skills developed, the less people tried to bully her. Akino’s parents had only thought her karate lessons would be at most a brief phase or hobby she would eventually grow out of, and would never have expected her to continue all the way into adulthood with it as she did. They were glad to see she enjoyed learning to fight as much as she did, but they were dismayed when she one day expressed that she wanted to fight professionally. They’d both hoped she might eventually take some sort of well-paying job in an office somewhere, but Akino just didn’t care about things like that. Fortunately, her parents came to respect the passion Akino had for what she wanted to do, and gave her their blessing to pursue it. And after looking at her options, she eventually set her sights on AFW.

Fun Facts:

Many people wonder why Akino often competes in a maid outfit, though there’s no big, deep reason behind it. She’s practiced fighting in numerous types of attires, and for reasons not entirely known even to her, she just finds the maid outfit the most comfortable.

During the last couple years of her life before signing with the AFW, Akino competed in a total of nine times in matches in independent promotions. Each match was her only appearance for that promotion, and done without the knowledge of her family. Her final record in the indies was 3 wins, 3 losses, and 3 draws.

Akino is an avid comic book reader and collector. Her favorites to follow are the X-Men, though she very much enjoys several different comics released by both DC and Marvel. And she’ll even collect those from several series she doesn’t like or care much about, even if just for the point of having it in her collection.
