As the No. 3 Attacker[1] and former No. 1,[2] Konami is an extremely powerful individual. In the past, after Yūichi Jin obtained Fūjin and Kei Tachikawa lost his motivation, she rose to the rank of No. 1 Attacker while participating in Rank Wars only between her middle school graduation and partway through her first year of high school. Her score has been surpassed since then but only by Tachikawa and Sōya Kazama.[2]
In her first fight with Yūma, she was able to defeat him in 9 rounds out of 10,[3] and even later on, he was never able to get more than 3 wins against her.[4] The current difference in strength between them was estimated to match that between Shinoda and Tachikawa.[5] She is said to be strong enough to count as a whole squad[6]; in fact, for the purpose of defense missions, she is considered as such.[7]
Her fighting style ignores trion performance to focus on pure firepower.[6] Her movements are similar to the way a Neighbor fights as stated by Replica.[6][8] Konami is also very fast and agile, easily dodging two Rabbits' attacks and defeating them with little effort.[9] By quickly switching Triggers, she can fight at different ranges and change the speed and power of her attacks. Gatlin commended her offensive abilities and mobility in their fight. His admiration later increased when he learned she was able to strike Vasilissa in the exact same place Tachikawa had already damaged.[10] She is also rather perceptive, understanding that Yūma was the strongest member of what would become his squad just by looking at him,[11] and managing to sense the threat of Organon before knowing it was a Black Trigger, which earned her Viza's praise.[12] Notably, she was uninjured after both the invasion of Aftokrator and Galopoula, despite never being shown to use any defensive Triggers.
Triggers[edit source]
| Kirie Konami's Triggers |
|---|
| Current |
|---|
Type  Normal
|
Sōgetsu | |
|---|---|---|
Classification |
Sōgetsu is powerful enough to nick the armor of a Rabbit[13] while also being durable enough to repel several attacks from Despinis without cracking.[14] Konami always uses two at the same time[15][13][14], unless to switch briefly to Meteor.[16][17] Thanks to her high mobility[18] she generally dives into the opponent's defense[6], and then deal a slash[15][6][19][16] with a meteor to finish it off.[15][6][16] Additionally she can have her teammates supply support fire from mid-range.[20] However she has been shown to be able to quickly block attacks with Sōgetsu.[14] In the manga, she was first seen using it in Chapter 53, although in the anime she was shown using it as soon as in Episode 12. | |
| Type Normal
|
Connector | |
|---|---|---|
Classification |
An exclusive Optional Trigger for Sōgetsu[21] that combines two of them in a huge Axe.[22][6] The trion consumption is high,[23][21] but its power is immense, to the point it is possible to bisect a Rabbit with a single swing.[24][6] She was first seen using it in Chapter 55 (Episode 25 in the anime). | |
| Type Normal
|
Sōgetsu (Axe) | |
|---|---|---|
Classification |
By placing the tips of Sōgetsu's handles together and using Connector[6][22], Sōgetsu becomes a giant battle axe.[6][22] Unlike Border's normal Triggers, which are intended for many people to use, Konami's special Triggers focus on "firepower", making them much more destructive in return for an increased trion expense.[21][23] However, it can be easily dispelled in order to save trion and move more freely.[25] This power increase is enough to chop a Rabbit in two with a single swing[24] and to cut off one of the upper arms of Vasilissa[25] after it had been cracked open using a single Senkū,[10] and one of the lower ones completely on its own.[26] despite being believed that only a Black Trigger could damage Vasilissa.[27] She was first seen using the axe in Chapter 55 (Episode 25 in the anime). | |
| Type Normal
|
Meteor | |
|---|---|---|
Classification |
Konami can efficiently use Meteor in conjunction with Sōgetsu, first engaging in close combat to seal the opponent's movements, then retreating quickly and firing Meteor at close[15] or mid-range[17][28] additionally this was noted as her signature surprise attack.[29] Her Meteors are powerful enough to crack the durable armor of Rabbits[30], however it could only leave a dent on Vasilissa regardless if it was a singular attack[17], or combined with Senkū[28]. She is able to scatter her bullets enough to target two opponents at the same time.[31] She was first seen using it in Chapter 53 (Episode 25 in the anime). | |
| Former |
|---|
| Type Normal
|
Kogetsu | |
|---|---|---|
Classification |
When Border was founded, Konami dual-wielded Kogetsu as her weapon of choice.[32] They remained her primary Triggers during the few months she participated in Rank Wars.[2] They were a shorter variation of the standard model.[2] | |

Daisuke Ashihara: Q: Konami is the No. 3 Attacker, does this mean she shows up in the Solo Rank Wars? And in that case what Triggers does she use?
A: Studying came first for Konami up until the end of her middle school years so she didn’t do any Solo Rank Wars then, and only participated in the period from her middle school graduation and part way through her first year of high school. Back then, in that period, Jin started using Fūjin and Tachikawa had kind of lost his motivation, so Konami sharpened her blades against those like Kazama to reach all the way to No. 1 Attacker. After that, along with Tamakoma’s separation, she took a step back from Rank Wars, but her solo points have only been surpassed by Tachikawa and Kazama so she’s still No. 3 Attacker. Her Triggers at the time were dual-wielded Kogetsu (fairly short).

Daisuke Ashihara: Q: How much is the difference in power between Tachikawa and HQ Chief Shinoda?
A: It seems to be as much as the difference between Yūma and Konami right now.

Daisuke Ashihara: Q: Is defense duty done on shifts?
A: Basically it is a 3 shift system with 5 Squads each. defense duty comes about once every 2 days, but frequently there are "mixed squads" being made up of agents who have free time or want more wages, so the actual frequency of work is about once every 3 days. Also, Reiji, Konami, Jin, and HQ Chief Shinoda each count as 1 squad.
