Satsuki Kiryūin

Satsuki Kiryūin (鬼龍院 皐月) is the main antagonist in Kill la Kill.

Personality
Said to rule with an Iron Fist. Unlike Ryūko, she has no shame in wearing an absurdly revealing dress when she wore Junketsu, rather, describing her actions in donning the Goku Uniform as "utterly pure". Satsuki also seems to be aware of knowledge regarding the circumstances of Isshin Matoi's death, as shown when she demonstrated interest in Ryūko's Scissor Blade, among other instances.

Powers and Abilities
As the Student Council President, Satsuki has absolute authority over Honnōji Academy and is regarded with near-reverance by many of its residents.

Satsuki is also accepted as the most powerful fighter of the Academy. Her middle-school self was able to emit a fighting spirit capable of downing 500 men and she was able to incapacitate Ira Gamagori despite him wearing steel armor. In battle, she wields the Bakuzan, a black-bladed katana in a white sheath with an edge that is claimed to be keener than Ryuko's Scissor Blade, and is highly proficient in using it. Her natural strength is also so great that one pre-Junketsu slash caused a massive wave of pressure and was strong enough to match Ryuko under the enhancement of Senketsu, even though Satsuki was not wearing any Goku Uniform.

After her first clash with Ryuko, Satsuki donned the Kamui Junketsu and was able to force the blood-thirsty uniform to bow to her will. Her utter lack of shame at her appearance also allowed her to immediately attain Junketsu's Life Fiber Override and true form. Under Junketsu's power, Satsuki is granted incredible power and even the smallest of attacks are capable of causing exceptional devastation throughout the arena.

Relationships
Matoi Ryūko

"Satsuki appears to have some sort of significant past connection with the new transfer student, Ryūko Matoi, as she appears moderately surprised when Ryūko brings up her father's death and at once, pulling out the Scissor Blade that Ryūko claims is the other half of the full weapon and demands to find the owner of that other half. Satsuki discloses little other than the speculation that there might have been involvement on her behalf."
