Kaori Makimura

Kaori is the female lead in the anime City Hunter.

Appearance
Kaori is a woman who is somewhere in her late twenties or early thirties. Unlike most of the other women in the series, Kaori is known for her tomboyish attire and haircut, leading to a running gag where she is mistaken for a man. This makes it rather surprising when she puts on a swimsuit of any kind. On rare occasions, she will put on a variety of different swimwear.

History
When her brother was killed by an assassin, she filled his position and inherited his old partner, Ryo Saeba. At first, she detested Ryo. As time went on, she found herself very attracted to him. However, Ryo had promised his old partner that he would never put a dirty hand on Kaori, and honors that promise no matter what. Both acknowledge their attraction to each other, and from time to time give in to their desires. In some cases, one actively tries to seduce the other.
