Appearance[]
Personality[]
Kaoru is shown to be a warm and loving mother as she welcomed both her daughters home after a long time of being apart, as well as not holding a hating them for assisted Mio, who was labeled as a threat to the Hero Clan by The Elders. Like her husband, Shuuya, she supported their choice to cut ties with the clan and begin living with Basara and joining his side.
Kaoru has great faith in Basara as she trusted him with the care of Takashi, albeit with some hesitance as his medical care was her responsibility as a doctor, showing her as a dutiful hero and doctor. She also trusted him with the care of her daughters after both of them decided to leave the Hero Clan and renounce their names.
Like Shuuya, Karou is great friends and an ally of Jin, as she had felt dishearted that she was forced to lie to him due to the Elders lying about the fact that Shiba was a clone that the Vatican had created, as well as the Elders deciding to keep to him to maintain their political power. But, she knew that if Jin had found out about Shiba, then he could turn his anger towards both the Hero Clan and the Vatican, knowing that her daughters and Basara could get involved in the battle.
History[]
At some point, Kaoru married Shuuyua and had two daughters with him named Yuki and Kurumi Nonaka. Like her husband, she was informed about the true identity of Shiba Kyouichi as the clone is of their close friend, Jin Toujou by the Elders, but neither told him, knowing what Jin would have done.
