Added DiffLines:

* VillainousUnderdog: She's clever, relatively fit, and experienced, but she's also a normal human, hunting creatures that are much stronger and faster than her, can regenerate from almost any wound she can inflict, and can only be killed by the use of highly specific objects unique to the individual. The fact that she can threaten vampires ''at all'' is considered unprecedented, and the moment they cotton on to what she's doing, her best option becomes to shoot them in the eye and run away while they regenerate. [[spoiler:Even her big ThanatosGambit is pointed out within the narrative to be a poorly-considered plan that had basically no chance of succeeding in the way she hoped it would; the actual peril involved is that Yamori recognizes that it's little more than an elaborate suicide, and doesn't want her to die]].

* FanservicePack: Early in the manga, Akira wasn't really a stand-out besides being a friend of Kou's. By the time she starts being more active in the plot, she's probably one of the most stacked females of the cast; arguably only Anko and Kabura visibly compare, and they're adults versus a teenager.
