CORSET — Akako always wears corset under her uniform to regulate her breathing. Without it, she is incapable of using any breathing techniques; her lungs are very weak because she barely survived asthma as a child.
ARROWS — She carries poisoned darts arrows in a small bag, attached to her belt. However, said arrows are not deadly, all they can do is paralyzing enemy for a few seconds, which helps Akako to catch up with enemy's speed.

HER LIFE AS A CIVILIAN
Akako's father left his family when his daughter was still little. He remarried another woman and never contacted his old family again.
Akako experienced intense emotional abuse daily, mainly coming from her own mother. Despite her miserable living conditions, Akako was not thrilled by the idea of arranged marriage, unlike other women her age. She chose to scare away her suitors and stay with her psychotic mother, until she could afford her own house or meet someone tolerable enough to marry.
Things changed after random female demon invaded their house and killed Akako's mother in front of her. Akako tried her best to help her mother, despite always wishing her death deep down. Akako was not saddened, but she felt intense fear, after stabbing her enemy with a knife multiple times and realizing that she was not a human.
Luckily for Akako, the sun had already risen and her enemy was not wise enough to keep her mouth shut, so Akako realized she could easily kill her by opening curtains.
Few seconds after Akako killed the invader, two young demon hunters stormed in, witnessing the demon's last struggles.

BECOMING A DEMON HUNTER
Akako did not initiate becoming a demon hunter because she held grudge against demons: She already took down the demon who ate her mother.
She was not the type who sacrifices herself for strangers, either.
Akako initiated becoming a demon hunter, because she was fascinated by the creature she killed: Creature that did not need to fear injuries, sickness, bullying, aging and inevitable death that follows it.
Akako needed to become a demon hunter in order to track down more demons and learn the secret of immortality.

She spent two years experimenting on the weak demons she caught, trying to become one of them, while lying to headquarters that she was researching more weaknesses demons could have, in order to destroy them easier.
Of course their blood was not strong enough to turn anyone, so she never made any progress.
Akako became frustrated after countless failed experiments and gave up on her dream to become immortal, she continued hunting demons though, because she could not find more stable job, besides she felt envious rage when she was thinking about demons: If she could not have eternal life, neither would they.

FORBIDDEN LOVE AND EXECUTION
Akako came across one of the most powerful demons when she expected it least. She was instantly bewitched by his beauty, however, the demon kept attempting to take her life, naturally.
Noticing Akako's interest in him, he subtly flirted back, in order to distract the opponent and catch her off guard. Somehow, the demon got too carried away with his plan to seduce his opponent and accidentally ended up taking a bit of interest in her.

Eventually, the demon realized she did not really mean threat and could be of use as well, so he agreed to meet her sometimes, if she would accept to become his spy.
The demon's plan was to use his eccentric plaything for his deranged schemes and eat her when he would grow bored of having fun with her. Akako was aware of his malicious intentions, but she allowed him to manipulate her like a marionette, anyway. She could not help doing anything just to be around him.

In the end, it did not go as the demon had planned; instead of getting bored of his puppet, he grew more and more attached to Akako to the point that he began developing feelings for her, despite being in denial.
In public, Akako dated a human guy, who was merely there to drive her to her unlikely ally.

Akako kept meeting her demon lover secretly, until he was killed by other demon hunters. After learning that the man of her dreams was no longer alive, Akako tearfully attacked random demon hunters in a blind rage, revealing all of her secrets. She massacred most of her colleagues around, because they were caught off guard, not expecting attack from their ally. In the end Akako was left to die with multiple fatal injuries, they decided that the disgusting traitor like her did not deserve quick death.
Her body was found by the demon king, after her heart stopped beating, however, her brain was still functioning. He decided to save Akako's life by turning her into a demon, thinking that her vengeful rage could be useful to get rid of their mutual enemies, thus, Ningyou was created.

Noticing the teen girl, dropping something in hurry, Akako picks it and follows her to return it. Seeing that the girl is gone and there is only a well, she worriedly looks inside, ending up falling while the well is still open, due to being used recently.
Completely sure that she hit her head too hard and began to hallucinate, Akako wanders away from the well, nearly getting killed by weak demons. She is saved by a random demon hunter, who is kind enough to offer her a temporary shelter, until she finds her way back home.
Akako slowly realizes that it is not a hallucination and starts training in order to survive in this dangerous world.
Eventually she becomes a demon hunter too, leaving the village of demon hunters, not wanting to be a burden, now that she can earn money on her own by slaying demons. That is how she survives the massacre of the demon slayers.
During her journeys as a slayer, Akako hears the legend of the sacred jewel and takes interest in it, wishing to grasp at least one shard, in order to obtain immortality, though she is more passive about it and does not wish to take innocent lives in process, she might steal the shard if opportunity is given, however.
