Personality
Ogifune "hates Asagi", she uses deceptive tactics like blackmail forcing trying to force Shiranui to stay out of her way or join her side. Though she is a close combat master, she enjoys sending others out and attack people that have been weakened by battle. Ogifune enjoys using her poison to torture and is a sadist which would take her time in killing or letting her opponents be abused.

However, the hate and these rather abusive or deceptive acts, come from her fear and total obedience to her mother. Which are a direct result of her mother killing her loved brother, like a bug without hesitation traumatizing her. Wishing not to die, she copied her mothers personality for approval, not to end like her loved brother.

Ogifune was crazed but after being faced by the reality of her mother's true intentions, broke after being talked down by Asagi. Able to self reflect for the first time, she gave up her quest to kill Asagi. (Ongoing Story)

She has long white hair and purple eyes. Her arms are prosthetics after the Igawa Revolt.

Ogifune was originally a normal woman that loved her brother, Igawa Yusai but after witnessing his death by her own mother, she changed. In order to survive and stay strong, Ogifune swore she would become like her mother.

She joined the Igawa Revolt Group, taking Shiranui family hostage to stop her from joining with Asagi but this failed. Trying to kill Asagi, she followed Asagi and Shiranui into a trap, pushed back by Yatsu Kuro, she left her troops and run away. Joining her mother the instigator of the revolt, Hattori Seishu, to regroup.

Attacked by a combination of Igawa clan, Fuuma clan and Koukawa clan most of their troops were defeated. Ogifune fought against Shiranui, while her mother battled Asagi. Ultimately defeated by losing her arms, she was taken alive. With her mothers defeat and escape, she was captured and send to Amidahara Prison for many years.

Staying in the prison, until she was freed by the efforts of the Internal Affairs Bureau and Takshaka of the Naga tribe. Ogifune, took part in a large raid of a Taimanin base in Senzaki. Together with Louis The Shaman, Major, Saito Hanzo and the Internal Affairs Bureau, Miranda Closet, the group was able to kill all Taimanin in the base.

As part of the second raid now onGosha Village, her now reformed Igawa Revolt Group attacks Asagi. Plotting behind the scenes her mother, Hattori Seishu, turns Ogifune into a unknowing sacrificial pawn and put a nuclear weapon into her arms. Using Fuuma Kotaro as a scapegoat for the theft of that bomb.

Thanks to some of Fuuma Kotaro planning, the Taimanin are able to disable any outside triggering signal for the bomb with Shikanosuke, electric ability, as they once did for Clear Robel. Creating a fair one on one fight for Ogifune and Asagi. Ogifune fought in a manic and crazed way against Asagi and was beaten back but Asagi avoided deadly attacks as such could also trigger detonation.

Asagi stopped fighting and pointed out that Ogifune was left in Amidahara Prison for years without being saved by her mother, forced to fight once more and die, now turned into a bomb. Facing Asagi alone, that Ogifune was suppose to defeat with her mother on her side. Despaired Ogifune proclaimed to kill herself and take everybody with her but Asagi did not move and simply observed her.
