She is the half-sister of Polyphonia Rihavein, the aunt of La Folia Rihavein, and the adoptive daughter of Kensei Kanase. She is a middle school student at Saikai Academy and a classmate and close friend of Yukina Himeragi and Nagisa Akatsuki.
Appearance[]
Kanon is a beautiful girl who closely resembles La Folia Rihavein, but she has shoulder-length white hair braided with a violet ribbon at the end on the left side, bangs that hang over her eyebrows, and clear blue eyes.
She wears the standard Saikai Academy uniform, along with violet underclothes beneath it.

Personality[]
Kanon has a very kind and gentle heart and often calls Kojou Akatsuki “Onii-san.” She is also quite fond of Kojou, especially after realizing that he always does his best to protect her and his friends.
History[]
Kanon was the only survivor after Kou Amatsuka attacked Adelard's Monastery, where she grew up. Due to her kindness — such as taking in numerous stray cats — she is known as the “Middle School Saint.” After the Faux Angel incident, Natsuki Minamiya became her guardian, while Astarte became her mentor. In addition, she is closely watched and cared for by the Kingdom of Aldegia, which ensures her safety through escorts and surveillance satellites, as she is the half-sister of Aldegia’s queen.
She is actually the illegitimate daughter of La Folia Rihavein’s grandfather, making her a member of royalty, although she has no claim to the throne.
Plot[]
The Amphisbaena[]
Kojou Akatsuki helps Kanon find homes for kittens.
Abilities[]
Kanon Kanase is an ordinary high school student with very little physical abilities. However when Kensei inserted Spiritual Circuits into her body she began to transform into another form which had far greater levels of ability.
As a Faux-Angel she had abilities that came close to rivalling a Primogenitor.
Faux-Angel: First Form
The Ability that comes from the insertion of Angel Circuits that will transform one into a being Close to God giving the user immense power including the control and manipulation over Realty and Dimensions.
- Enhanced (Speed, strong, sense, Durability).
- Flight: In her most simple form Kanon has two white feathered wings durable enough to use for defence as well as flight.
Faux-Angel: Second Form
When this form appears two extra sets of wings manifest and strange red eyes appear upon the wings through which attacks can be launched.
- Energy beam: From the eyes on the wings Kanon can launch yellow lasers that are capable of harming even Primogenitor grade Vampires.
- Non-Corporeal Physiology: In this form Kanon becomes immune to any and all attacks both magical and physical as her body exists in a separate dimension.
- Blizzard: Kanon is capable of creating blizzard powerful enough to freeze an entire island.
Faux-Angel : Third Form
In this form her wings split and she enters a "Berserk mode"
Abilities from this form are unknown as her powers are removed by Yukina Himeragi then defeated by Kojou Akatsuki.
