Background / History
Akako introduces herself at the Jaren Hotel as the inheritor of Red Magic. Investigating an earthbound spirit created from the centuries-old resentment of a dead person, she seeks Ran Mouri's help after sensing extraordinary power within her. Akako admits that she lacks complete confidence in defeating the spirit alone. 30
During the earthbound-spirit incident, Akako identifies the head chef as a person who sacrificed victims and his own soul to the spirit. She fights alongside Ran and Ai Haibara, flying on a broomstick and using summoned lightning to disperse the spirit's manifested form. However, she correctly suspects that this apparent victory is incomplete when the spirit later possesses a police officer. 35 36
After the incident, Akako privately approaches Lin Yu. She explains that the world's spiritual energy has dried up and that magical and cultivation lineages are disappearing. Seeking an heir capable of continuing Red Magic, she proposes having a child with Lin Yu because of his exceptional power. 39
Akako later joins Lin Yu, Ai Haibara, and Ran Mouri for Shenron's summoning. She is fascinated by the prospect of resurrection and challenges Shenron when Akemi Miyano cannot be revived directly. 40 42
